I went to a demo day last weekend and I was testing drivers and 60 degree wedges. I hit the Sliders, Coverts and XHots but I fell in love with the Mizuno JPX-EZ Driver with the low spin face and low spin shaft. I was fitted and told I needed to hit an 8 to 9 degree loft with a low spin shaft and maybe even use a low spin ball.  Even though I have great distance they said my spin rate was too high and it caused me to not get max distance. So they recommended the face angle, lie and shaft and I ordered it. It came in today and I picked it up a little earlier.

I can't wait to get on the range today and go play a round with it.  This is the first adjustable driver I have ever owned and the face is set to neutral right now I think.  I have to try to figure out how to close the face like it is on my old Nike Sumo driver.

Congrats!!! How did it sound when getting fitted? Let us know also after using it. I've read that is very loud when hitting balls.

Loud? No way man!  There is a crisp sort of sound but not loud at all.  As a matter of fact my Nike Sumo driver is 3 times as loud as this Mizuno driver is. I'm used to hearing a loud PINK!!!!  from the Nike.  At first the Mizuno sounded like I wasn't making good contact but I quickly figured out that it just wasn't near as loud as my old driver.

It's a pretty good looking club. I've seen it a couple of times, but haven't had a chance to hit it yet. Once you get a few rounds under your belt, be sure to write up a review in the Equipment section of the site !

A few stock photos for those who haven't seen it.

Well, I've played several rounds with this driver and was really beginning to fall in love with it.  That is until an unfortunate incident today.  My wife, son and I were out enjoying the beautiful spring day out on a local golf course. I was playing a casual round myself while my son and wife walked the course to get some exercise.  I teed it up on hole #6 a par 5.  I had been hitting the driver great today with a slight draw and decided I wanted to really go after this one.  So I lined up the shot, slightly closed the face, got some good width on my swing and pow!  Crushed it.  I was impressed until I looked at my driver and saw the shaft had snapped!  I mean, I do have a high swing speed but I don't think I generate the kind of torque to snap a shaft.

Now what do I do?  Will the shaft be replaced by Mizuno or Edwin Watts Golf? I ordered it after trying several and getting fitted at a demo day.

      SuperSpeed Sues Stack System for Supposedly Syndicating Successes & Statistics

      By iacas ·

      https://static1.squarespace.com/static/603d222df4a6a57df7ef3e29/t/663cdba5d89e3a1848dab8d1/1715264422455/US_DIS_ILND_1_24cv3749_d34676497e293_COMPLAINT_filed_by_SuperSpeed_Golf_LLC_Jury_Demand.pdf The full complaint is there, but  basically, SuperSpeed (SS*) is claiming the Stack System (SS*) Stack System’s [sic] produces inflated metrics later used to, [sic] mislead and deceive consumers. Stack System’s marketing materials inflate apparent swing speed and distance gains through selective presentment of data without qualification that purported gains are not the result, in whole or part, of its training protocol and products. * Yes, I'm joking about abbreviating both "SS." SuperSpeed wants: A judgment that the Stack System has disseminated false and/or misleading information in violation of federal and Illinois law. The deletion of all false advertising distributed and recall of all packaging containing false advertising and a requirement that Stack System issue notices (written or otherwise) to that effect to all current distributors and retailers of its products and all distributors with whom Stack System has done business in the past eighteen months. Written confirmation within 30 days of an injunction detailing the manner and form in which Stack System has complied. An order that Stack System disseminate corrective advertising informing consumers, the trade, and the public of Stack System’s unlawful conduct. 3X all profits received by Stack System as a result of its unlawful actions. 3X all damages sustained by SuperSpeed (as a result of Stack System’s actions) The cost of the action All reasonable attorney fees All other relief to which SuperSpeed are entitled and such other or additional relief as just and proper. Oy.

      Jack vs. Tiger: Who's the Greatest Golfer?

      By iacas ·

      I'm not doing this for the hundred and twentieth time. Sorry in advance, but you get the massively abridged version. Those guys also benefited from the weaker/shallower fields. Also, Watson's career doesn't overlap with Jack's like many think it did. Tom is nearly a decade younger. Jack won only like four majors only after Tom won his first. And Tom won more British Opens than he did all three of the other majors combined, as it was his specialty (not Jack's). Arnie's career similarly doesn't overlap Jack's as much as many think.   Jack would also tell you Tiger was the better golfer.

      Jack vs. Tiger: Who's the Greatest Golfer?

      Weaker depth of fields for sure. Some of the top level guys with Jack were pretty awesome. Tom Watson had the lead on the 72nd hole of the 2009 British Open, an event where Tiger missed the cut. Old Tom was almost 60 years old. Jack himself at age 58 finished Top 10 at The 1998 Masters and scored better than Tiger, who won The Masters by 12 shots just a year before that.   The success of both Tom & Jack in older age gives some hope that maybe Tiger can find the magic again at some point. He’s still trying to figure out how to build the stamina for 72 holes after the leg injury. I would love to see him jump on the leaderboard in the coming years. I know a lot of people have given up on him at this point, but that was also true from 2014 to 2017 with the back injuries. He had a hell of a resurgence in 2018 & 2019. Would be fun to see it again.

      Perceptive rules question by caddie unlocks Tour pro’s ‘dead zone’ relief A perceptive rules question by Xander Schauffele’s caddie, Austin Kaiser, unlocked “dead zone” relief during the Wells Fargo Championship.

      I ran across an interesting new clip, Johnson Wagner went into that spot with the Referee who allowed the relief.  Apparently there was a perfectly reasonable shot to be made, as Johnson clearly demonstrated, so relief from the TIO was perfectly appropriate.
