Found a regular stock shafted Dymo 10.5 degrees in the Used clubs section of my local golf shop/range. £99 and not a mark on it. One bucket of balls later, it was in the bag. Best range session I can remember, draws, fades and even straight shots on demand! They're still £200 new in the UK, I feel like I stole it!
Ok, you say, what happened on the course? Well... I've only played twice since, shot 8 over on my home course and 10 over at a friend's course. Not bad for a 13 handicap - I didn't hit all the fairways, but I was always in play. Regularly 10-20 yards longer than my R7 425.
Looking forward to next season!

I am just about to buy a Dymo driver but stuck on the shaft options. My swing speed is 115 and ball speed 170mph. The pro recommended the ProLaunch Red Xtra Stiff shaft. Can anyone tell me if the stock Nike x stiff shaft can suit my swing speed as I feel the pro is just trying to get more money out of me (£60 more for shaft)

Thanks

I'm totally with you. I swore I would never buy a square driver as I was trying the Dymo2 is the 9.5* stock, stiff shaft. The Nike rep dropped the ProLaunch Red shaft in a 10.5* head..... SOLD.

The perfect set-up for me as well.

Been playing Mizuno MX-23's for a few years. Just demo'd Nike VR's and really liked them. But when they put the graphite shaft on them they really performed well for me. Now I am comparing the Dymo2 Str8 fit to my Ping G10 driver. I have to say, I'm leaning towards the Dymo2.

I am Curious what swing speed and tempo you guys have that works so well with the ProLaunch Red.

Quote from Robbie G
"Also, I refuse to hit any golf club with a square head!!!"

Why? I'm not picking on you Robbie G, there are lots of you guys out there, but I can't help but wonder why?

Remember when woods were made from wood? I wonder if there were players then who said "I refuse to hit a wood made of metal"?
What about golf balls, weren't they made from guttaperka? I'm not sure if they still use that in the core of some but I know its not in the Pro V1.

Anyway all I'm trying to say to everyone out there, not just Robbie G, is open your mind a little you never know when you'll have to eat crow.

Oh yeah, the Dymo2, got one on order, can't wait to find a new head cover for it.
Cheers
Ken

"Someone at Nike must just be a big fan of yellow."

Of course, look at the college Phil supports. Go Ducks!

As for the driver, I just picked one up here in Eugene and it's the best driver I've ever hit. Fiddler's Green is lucky their range has a net at the end of it or else they would've been collecting golf balls in the blackberry bushes.

Considering how young Nike Golf is, it's amazing how their equipment has caught or surpassed most of the competition. All of my woods, hybrids and golf balls are Nike. I was hitting the original SuMo but was just getting into golfing when I bought it a couple years ago and ignorantly bought a Reg Flex when my swing speed is 115. It was going to be $215 to put a stiff Mitsubishi Diamana shaft in it or I could just get the new DyMo for $189...needless to say, I got the new club.

Also, I refuse to hit any golf club with a square head!!!

A good review. But I hate to subsidize Tiger's income and the only way I can do anything about that is not to buy Nike's products. So perhaps on balance I will stay away.

But a well written review.

Don't hate the player. Hate your own game!!

I like the dymo 2 driver but my nike sq is better because the impact sound on my driver is superb. On the dymo2 driver which is no different to my driver is less loud on the impact sound and the colour is just just a dull comparred to my driver which is a bright yellow colour that i love. The addjustable shaft i do not like I think is a gimick because its something people cannot be bothered with but whats the point in having it? it wont improve peoples game it will make the game more harder with the 8 different places it turns. My appeal on the square shape is a phenominal with its accuracy because i can hit my driver more straighter with a great impact sound to top it off lol.

i got the dymo2-10.5 today and i got to say, i hit my first shot and was amazed i had normally been hitting the ball about 250yds with a nasty slice using a old cleveland launcher but now with the dymo im cranking the ball 275 and dead straight. Buy this club.
