i wouldnt mind trying it. If you ballooned the aldila nv thats pretty wild, it might of been the bridgestone head and that shaft combo i dont know.

I wouldn't bother with the Prolaunch Red if you didn't like the low ballflight of the NV-you'll be hitting wormburners.

probably. I have hit the aldila voodoo shaft in the past and it gave me a bit more ballflight than the nv but still wasnt my cup of tea. Not sure if the voodoo is low launching though, seems like it to me

The Voodoo is a mid-launch shaft...fairly similar to NV but the NV will be a bit lower. Voodoo on my fairway woods work perfectly for me. Gets them up high enough but no ballooning.

As for Prolaunch Reds, I have a friend who has a Callaway Ft-9 with X-stiff Prolaunch Red. Swings at 120mph and he just slams the hell out of his driver. He gets some good air with it too.

Glad that you didn't loose any money on the trade. Just giving you a hard time because you seem to go through clubs so quickly... Hopefully the R9 lasts a bit longer. Good luck on what seems like a never ending quest to find the perfect clubs for your game.

its an r7 limited not the r9. Ive heard tons of great things about taylormade drivers and this is the first one that Ive hit that has proven that. Its like this with any sport though. My dad is a raquetball player and he tells me all the guys are always switching rackets etc. btw, you havent seen my car before, lol. Im always wanting cool stuff and things to work on.

Sorry, meant r7... You'll probably have the r9 soon enough anyways...

nah, didnt like the r9 that much. Maybe an r11? I lucked out on the headcover too. Was at dicks this afternoon and asked them if they had any spare taylormade driver headcovers cause the r7 Im gettin doenst come with one. I was going to take anything they had, he comes out with a Taylormade r7 limited headcover saying thats the only one they have, lol. They gave it to me for 1.00. Those things normally go for like 20
