I've hit the X-Forged (both the 2007 and 2009 models) in the store and from what I remember they felt very nice... real solid club and looks good at address.

I use to play the X-18s a few years back when they first came out and they were a great club. I then played the x-tours a couple years after and I am currently playing the x-forged 2009. I remember trying to play the 2007's and thinking they were difficult to hit for my skill level at the time which was around 13. So my comment is that the X-18's are awesome and my opinion of the '07's is that they are difficult to hit. Take it for what it's worth...and it ain't much.

The Maltby Playability Factor supplement for 2007 gives this info on the two clubs models:

X18 Pro series (2004): MPF = 982, which is Ultra Game Improvement range
XForged (2007): MPF = 636, which is Game Improvement range

Focus, connect and follow through!

    • Maybe once or twice since drivers became VW's on a stick. Early Persimmon/Laminates were no bother when conditions were right. Even the early days of "Oversized" Metal woods, it wasn't that bad- heads weren't THAT much bigger than the wooden ones. Once they ramped up to 460cc 20 years ago and they really pushed the technology in weight distribution, movable weights, etc... They were meant to be hit off a tee to get the most out of them. Even with larger 'sweet spots', off the deck usually meant a spinnier shot off the bottom half that was harder to control and catch just right. And for most people, controlling a 45/46" inch shaft is a LOT tougher than the 42/43" of a modern FW that would probably go further anyway.

    • When I want to hit a nice controlled fade with the driver I tee it up lower. Seems to work for me once out of every 20 tries 😉
