Does anyone prefer the Nike SQ Tour to the SQ Max??

Seems like everyone likes the max better??

Is there ANYONE who prefers the SQ Tour to the SQ Max?? I tried the SQ Max with an Aldila NV65 Stiff shaft that I did not like at all. I wonder it if was just the shaft. Sold it and purchased the SQ Tour. I haven't played a round with the Tour yet as I am having it reshafted with a Grafalloy Comp NT Prototype Stiff shaft but I did hit a few balls with the regular flex shaft that was in it(All I could find left handed) and the Tour just feels a little better to me, more simular to the Ignite that I love so much. Seems like everything I read says that the SQ Max is more forgiving and longer. The head just seemed so darn big to me that I couldn't control or something. Anyone tried the Comp NT in a SQ Tour or Max?? What do you guys think?? Thanks guys.

I like the tour better than the pancake. My spin numbers were lower, and after coming from hitting a 340cc driver--it's plenty forgiving and not too much of a change for me.

abewley - if you put your proto V2 in a SQ (max) head, I would bet my last dollar it replaces your current driver - keep us posted !

i second that bet. i've got the retail V2 in an SQ max and don't think i have ever hit a driver longer and easier then this guy. my ball flight is a nice mid trajectory that just seems to keep going.

the tour looks better, has lower spin numbers and a more sqaure face. Its plenty forgiving.....

Forgive my ignorance, but what is the volume difference between the Max and Tour?

Just curious if you are supposed to tee the ball lower with Nike SQ? I talked with a Nike rep yesterday and he said no, you are supposed to tee the ball high with the SQ but I thought I had heard differently. I noticed that when Tiger hits driver off the tee you can't see any part of the ball from the down the line view.
