New driver, can't wait

[swasterix]

So, I've been struggling of late with my SLDR, so thought it was about time to invest in a new driver. Looked at the M1, but is a little rich for my blood.

After looking around, I came across a Hammer X on eBay, £50 delivered from the States.

Was a little dubious around the marketing, but the Power Core, zero CC design seemed legitimate. It has a aero speed shaft, shaped like a samurai sword to cut through the air. Apparently it's made of a material called Zolex. I've never heard of it before, but is light and seems sturdy.

Taking it out for its first round tomorrow, and am proper excited! Has anyone hit one of these before? I will feed back tomorrow evening!

Here are a few photos.

Simple question, is it a conforming club under R&A rules

 

[ruff-driver]

Sweet!

I see it comes complete with adjustment tools

 

[Craigg]

You'd be better off teeing off with the spanner :rofl:

Yeah I'm pretty sure it does. Jack Hamm wouldn't lie would he?

 

[Jates12]

Im unsure about the seriousness of this thread/post :rofl:

Although the spanner is adjustable, it only has between 7 and 9 degrees of loft. Not enough for a newbie like me

Brilliant, just brilliant, just the wrong date to post! :rofl:

I am thinking your SLDR is looking over and feeling pretty good about life right now. Hope I'm wrong and it's awesome. Look forward to hearing how it goes.

 

[Tiger man]

:rofl:Looks beautiful. . You did not pay money for that surely!

Remember to growl and grunt when you hammer it!

Looks like a chipper thats had a drunken poke at a putter...

Each to their own but that is one ugly sin against the golf gods.

Not on the conforming list it seems.

 

[RGDave]

Awesome!

That was £5.00, you say?

Should have bartered for 2 at the same time.

Your decimal point has gone for a drunken wander...

I wonder how good it feels about itself when I'm driving 476 yards over some mountains in the distance.

Dont even think I'll bother bringing my irons, probably won't need them.

In fact, even my putter best be looking over its shoulder.

no, it was £50. Do you not think that was a good deal?

ps. I've searched for the scrap value of Zolex, and can't find any results. Surely that means it's rare? (I hear that's what Wolverines claws are made of...)

 

[RGDave]

no, it was £50. Do you not think that was a good deal?

I dunno. Seems cheap to carry the mountains at 440 yards.
