Wilson Staff C300 Driver/(adjustments?)


launcher

Recommended Posts

I've recently added the C300 fairway and hybrid to my back-up bag. While I've only played 9 holes after a long Winter layoff, I've found both to be very solid additions. At this point, I'm strongly considering adding the C300 driver as well. I've read some reviews, and used the search function on here as well, but still have some questions. Particularly regarding the adapter adjustments.

 

While the basic adjustments are fairly self explanatory, I seem to notice a lie change when the loft is adjusted. Does anyone know if this is the case? The manual is very vague on this. There's no upright/flat setting on the adapter, but it really seems to me that the lie changes when adjusted.

I know that this post didn't generate any interest, but I'll update it anyway. I found that there isn't any change in lie adjusting the driver or fairways. Only the hybrid can be adjusted for lie. Not unlike many brands, the driver/fairways face angle will close as loft is increased.

 

Still looking for some feedback on the driver if anyone out there has one?

An effective adjustability feature of the C300 driver are the three screw in weights on the bottom of the club head: toe, heel and rear. The rear weight can go in tandem with the driver loft adjustment, for example more or less rear weight may allow a loft setting that stays away from too closed a face. The heel and toe weights can be selected to impart draw or fade bias. In my case, my launch is best with the standard 10.5 degree loft and the lightest 2 gram weight in the rear. Then to eliminate my occasional drive miss to the right (I'm right handed), I placed a heavy weight in the heel position and the lightest 2 gram weight in the toe. After experimenting (a lot) and settling on these settings I have been able to hit the C300 driver straighter than any other driver that I have used in the past.

That sounds interesting. Without hitting the driver yet, it might be a little premature to try to figure out the weights. It should arrive today though. I was thinking of messing with the 12g weight from the 3 wood, in the driver heel position.
