can anyone compare the MP-600 vs MP-630 vs MP-630 FastTrack

i have read multiple reviews, but can't seem to find a direct comparison between all 3 (more than likely cause the 600 is last years club)
does anyone know if the non-fast track version is shaped the same as the fasttrack?
if you havent seen this driver in person, it is sick!
445cc head, traditional pear shaped - so square at set up its great!

i hit the fasttrack version yesterday w a 10.5 and stiff Fubuki shaft
it felt so good (on neutral setting), but a tad high
found a non fasttrack version w a Fubuki x-stiff shaft and 9.5 - this should help bring the flight down

the 600 can be found fo about 1/2 the price

opinions?

I only hit the 630 and 630 fasttrack. Both felt nice, and I liked them well enough and all, but I had one weird complaint - normally stuff like this doesn't distract me, but that bright white shaft did for some reason. The head shape is pretty much identical in the 630 and 630 fasttrack from what I remember. But, it looks as though the MP-600 is the missing link here, so I'm probably not helping you much

haha!

that bright white shaft is AWESOME!!! I actually bought the fubuki today....now to find a head have ot narrowed down to the MP-600, MP-630 or Bridgestone J33R

I haven't hit the new driver yet outside (only in a simulator) but did purchase last week the new MP CLK Hybrid with the Fubuki shaft. I played yesterday and must say that the new MP CLK hybrid is an absolutely solid club. The white shaft looks fantastic (tons of people asked about it and commented on how great it looked yesterday when I played) and I couldn't be happier with the actual performance of the club during my round.

Based on the how I felt about the Hybrid, I'm pretty locked in on buying the driver. I did however find that while hitting the MP-630 in the simulator, the stiff shaft seemed a little "whippy" when I casually shook it up down and left right while addressing the ball. However during a full swing, it felt solid. On the Mizuno forums, a Mizuno rep explained this and said that the shaft may feel whippy during a casual shake but is quite solid during a full swing. Based on your game, you may want to try out both of the S and X flex shats first to really see which one suits you best. For me, I have a 110+ mph swing speed and would normally go with a S shaft but, based on what I felt with the Shaft on the MP 630 will more than likely go with X stiff.


Good luck!

yeah the made for shaft I found was a little whippy too, but ur right......it did feel great

but if you look, it has a red band and red writing on the FUBUKI, typically these r a higher launch and not quite as stiff I just purchased an actual FUBUKI Tour (w the grey band) that is a stiff, but tipped 1.25" - which makes it feel more like an X shaft i also ended up getting the J33R head - found a brand new one for $80 shipped to me and i paid $95 shipped for the shaft im pretty stoked about this new set up!

Very cool! I heard good things about the J33R head...sounds like you are going to have a great setup.

Good point on the Fubuki shaft BTW....I would say that the Fubuki X stiff shaft in the MP 630 is equivalent, more or less, to the Diamana Blue 65 S stiff shaft in the Titleist 909 D1 & D2 drivers
