Nice bag. Since it is in your bag you obviously like it so anyway how do you like the J40 driver?

No idea haven't hit it yet. Literally came in the mail about an hour ago haha. I've been playing a R7 TP 400CC driver while waiting on a deal on the J40 to pop up. Found one for 120 brand new shipped.

Just got back from a quick 9 holes and I am very impressed with the driver. Very first hole is a semi long par 5, about 515 yards and I had 211 yards left after my drive. I expected a really solid deal feel but I was dead wrong. After I struck the first drive I looked at the club head because I thought I had broken it, thats how hot it felt off the face. It is definitely more forgiving then the R7 I have been playing and its longer BUT its just as accurate. This should be in the bag for quite awhile!

No its not tinny at all. Its loud and more of a thwack, but yes its very loud. This past year I have played an i20, 07 and 09 burner, r11s, covert performance and tour, cleveland classic 290 and my trusty r7 tp. Out of all of them I would say the Bstone is the loudest and hottest feeling, its really hard to describe the sound but it feels like the ball is flat out exploding on the face. I wouldn't say that I am driving it any farther then any of the other of them THAT i hit straight...lol. The bstone really cuts down on the spin and promotes a straight shot which = more distance.

Okay got ya. What did you think about the i20 driver? Was very close a few times to buying one. Still might.
[/quote]

Was a very good stick. I made a mistake and cut it down wayyyy to short and screwed up the club. During the summer I had the most success with the R11-S addi 6x combo. It was the longest driver I have every played and was very accurate. But like any true club ho I wanted to keep trying other stuff. I've been looking for the j40 for over a year but could never find a good deal. It seems that in the past 2 weeks they have really dropped in price on the bay.

Globalgolf.com has the i20 in very good condition for 137. I buy a ton of stuff from those guys. I must have at least 20 globalgolf boxes in my garage.

[/quote]Cool. I was looking at that site, never ordered from them, and was wondering if anyone had used it. Many thanks for that info. I have begun to seriously think about slightly used clubs. For the price of course and the condition is close to new. I get most of my stuff from Rockbottomgolf. They have been having ridiculous sales last couple months. Great site.

Rock bottom are good guys, they are located right down the road from me. But seriously global golf is the bees knees when it comes to golf equipment. I've bought so much stuff from them and never had a bad experience!

Just got off the Global site. Really tempted to go after that $137 i20 driver. Irons I was looking at were all upright 1 or 2 degrees. Don't really want to mess with that, just buy and play. Going to go back in and look at other drivers later on, cooling off now lol. Does Rockbottom have a retail store there? Just curious.

Nice bag, I like seeing another B'stone ho every now and then. The J40 430 is a great driver and agree that it feels very "muted". It's very similar to the J33 series if you've ever hit it. The driver can really come alive with a shaft fitted for your swing. My buddy had the 430 w/ a Miyazaki Black and it was high flat bombs all day. I prefer the 445 which has a louder sound to it but is more suited for my swing.
