Never been a fan of white drivers...

Cobra ZL Encore White version

Apologies if links don't work, I'm an idiot.

It just performed so much better on the launch monitor and range, even compared to R11, TM Superfast Tour, Titleist D3, Ping G20. The Fujikura Motore F1 shaft just worked really well for me.

White head, white shaft, white grip, white head cover. Not terribly practical but that's what happens when you let Ian Poulter choose colourways I suppose.

I'm going to look like a right plonker if I don't hit it well

Detachable shaft so I can always switch in something a bit more sober looking further down the line!

Going to christen it at Hanbury Manor on Friday, so full review to follow.

You could have specced the motore in the Tileist. Might not have looked such a knob then.

Unless you wear matching white trousers?

 

[Monty_Brown]

No white trousers, but orange Puma shoes. I am a tart, it's true.

TBH the D2 and D3 I just could not get on with... feel off the clubhead did not quite work for me. Great clubs but just didn't suit my eye or feel. Each to their own as there's obviously much love for the Titleists on here.

Wouldn't it have been cheaper to just buy a bottle of Tipp-Ex?

i used the taylormade superfast 3 wood this season and i liked the white head.who cares what colour it is so long as it works for you,i also used a g10 fitted with a pink bubba watson shaft this year and the stick i got was unreal but it worked well and that soon shut them up.

got a shed load of abuse when i had the r11, that soon went when i sold it

On a slight tangent I noticed Fazer have brought out white putters that are the absolute ringer of the TM Ghost. Every style is the same (blade, mallet) and it was only when I noticed the Fazer name on the grip that I twiged

That shaft is XX Stiff... or did you mean it was just a pink shaft?

 

[USER1999]

It would be worrying if he wanted to be fitted with a pink shaft. Especially a stiff one.

it was the same shaft except the flex.grafalloy protoype bi-matrix shaft.the one i had fitted was a stiff but it was too soft and i struggled with it.i would of kept it but i needed the money.

Whatever works my boy!

Couldn't see the theory or idea behind it and poo-poo'd them as a gimmick which they probably are to an extent however I now own a white TM rescue which is awesome.
