Has anyone on here hit this. I was looking to replace my driver shaft and noticed this driver had the UST V2 on it. It is selling now for 90 dollars and seems to be packed with technology.

Any thoughts? From what it sounds like it has a very tiny sound. What about the ball flight?

Excellent driver,very similar to the Cleveland Hibore XLS in design and performance. If you can ignore the strange hollow sound it makes,it is well worth it. Very long and forgiving driver. I bought my 10.5 degree Spine last spring and am very pleased with it.

happy with it here. I'm not a long ball hitter with it (though I can really crank my irons), avg about 265. I'll usually get a couple out there pushing 300 on a good day.

the sound is horrible when you mis hit it, but its awesome when you really catch one the way you want. I love playing with my buddies cause they'll laugh at how loud it is...but then 9 holes later when I'm 6 strokes up on them, I think the sound starts to get at them hahaha

you keep cranking them out there and the big sound just echoes across the course.

Futuresport: Sorry to stray a little from the topic,but I noticed you play Wilson Staff equipment as well. I always used Wilson since my Dad played with the Wilson K-28s over 30 years ago. I play the Spine driver and 3 wood,Fybrid 3 and 4 hybrids and the Di7 graphite shaft irons.I know Wilson isnt as popular as the other manufacturers,but I enjoy playing their clubs.

Well I got one just for the heck of it. I took it out today with no time for driving range work. It took me a few holes to get used to it (requires a different tempo, of course). I am still pretty inconsistent with it, but it's not bad at all. Mishits are LOUD - so loud that they might even be bad for your hearing.

I hit it on the screws just one time. Par 5, 470 yards. My second shot was 160 from the flagstick. (I hit the green in 2 and missed a 15 foot eagle putt, made the birdie). That club has some pop in it. I'll spend more time seeing how repeatable that straight, long shot is.

    • Day 9: 2026.01.11 Hit some balls at the range, concentrating on weight distribution at address, got some on film.
    • Day 468 - 2026-01-11 Loooooong day. Did some work in the patio door (as a mirror) when I got home.
    • I caught a video on this driver; the face tech seems crazy. Looking at the heat map for ball speed, hitting it basically anywhere on the face only loses a few percent ball speed. The surprising and counter intuitive part to me was that for flat faced clubs, ball speed loss is directly proportional to distance loss. For clubs with bulge and roll this is apparently not true. The surprising part of that story being that the max distance potential looks to be a tiny pee sized area for this driver, and I feel in general for drivers. The counter intuitive part being (the myth?) that blade irons have a pee sized sweet spot and missing that tiny spot causes dramatic losses. And that modern drivers, maybe 2017 on, have massive sweet spots and are ultra forgiving. Where in reality, if this heat map data is valid and reliable, it might be a bit of the opposite. This insane tech driver appears to have a pea sized "sweet spot" while Mizuno Pro 241 irons are 28% more forgiving compared to the average of all clubs measured. Not compared to other players irons, compared to all clubs from all categories, players to SGI! The Pro 241 being essentially just a solid chunk of metal with no "tech" at all. Which for me devolves into a whole mess of what is forgiveness really? And in measurable and quantifiable results how many yards, or feet, does that translate into?
