Anyone hit either of these? I wanted to test them out but apparently Golf Galaxy doesn't carry either of them. The Nickent comes with a nice shaft (V2), but I've heard problems with distance and noise. I know there was a small article on the site about the Geomax, but it was more of a preview than a review of the club.

We'll have a review of the TourEdge available soon, and perhaps the Nickent one as well.

I've played a round with the GeoMax and the 3DX Square. They are similar in that they're both 460cc and they both have a relatively shallow face for such a big driver. The GeoMax was solid. I didn't like it as much as the Tour Edge Exotics driver, but consider the $200 price difference. It was forgiving and it doesn't look as funky as the square drivers out there.

The 3DX Square was a pleasant surprise. It is less noisy than the Sumo2 and longer than the FT-i. I hit some monster drives with it, and plan to keep it in the bag. Very forgiving, and the design makes it look like you're hitting a ping pong ball. If I had to choose one or the other, I'd probably go with the 3DX Square.

I haven't hit the 4DX yet, but I look forward to trying it soon. I'll hopefully have a review of it and the 3DX Square in the near future.

in the bag today:
Driver: TaylorMade R9 10.5° (Fujikura Motore 65 stiff)

I guess the rumors of the 3DX's short distance were only rumors, that's good to hear. What's the ball flight like btw? Thanks for the information, I really appreciate it.

Is that review going to be up in the next couple of days, or should I head out and find a nearby shop that has Nickent or Tour Edge clubs?

hi!

I'm thinking about buying a new driver for this season,..... I'm not sure yet if i should get a titleist 905 r with an aldila NV shaft or the new callaway ft 5 tour with an aldila NV shaft!!! I've tried both, but I'm still not sure which one would fit me best!! Any experiences with either one of the drivers would be a great help and if you've played both then even better!!

thanx

    • Day 37: did my drill swings in the garage with foam balls for about 15 minutes. Working on getting my backswing more turned and then going from there. 
    • Thanks but honestly… I don't know any other way. I don't mind being wrong so long as I know where to go from there. I don't like being wrong — I'd love to get things right (which is different than "being right"). I recommend grabbing a furniture slider or a paper plate or something, and doing something like this: First, make a swing where you let your trail foot swing out as you turn, then twist that foot back in. From DL and FO, it'll look like this: Then, during a regular backswing, try to twist your foot in slightly (demonstrated in the left image): You'll notice a crease along the trail side of your hip, your pelvis will "fold" into that thigh (internal rotation of the hip joint), and your "bits" will be squished a little between your pelvis and your thigh. Ben Hogan said once: "At the top of the back swing the groin muscle on the inside of your rt [sic] leg near your right nut will tighten," Hogan wrote. "This subtle feeling of tightness there tells you that you have made the correct move back from the ball." I don't know about that, but you will probably feel something down around that area.
    • Yep. I think it will start to feel even more athletic when we start on the downswing stuff later.  I know, it's just I want to be younger so I have more time to enjoy the changes. 🙂 
    • I need to drop a couple of stone. 🙂 😛    Yep. Yeah, but in the end, it feels more athletic, like you're actually using your legs, yeah? As you know… we use the best available info we have. Like others, I was fooled a little by 2D images for awhile (moving or still). Unlike others, I've learned and grown and moved on since then, while they're still looking at their images (often from lousy camera angles).
