Some, not all people are brutal on this site! His potential is 2 majors. I find it funny how half the people on here can't get out of their own way on the course but feel free to comment on a tour winner. It is my hypothesis that many of you present compassion for a pro that could have been more but just really want to condemn a man who lifestyle doesn't fit your beyond false idea of what a PGA Tour Pro is. Comment on his swing, or his propensity to HO more than Choi, with his stix, fine...but enough with is lifestyle. I am pretty sure he is aware of how much money he's lost in casino's...Oh and how much money he's given to charity. (hint it's probably more than we would make in a typical lifetime)

Where he placed the lead tape is to lower the ball flight ( I think the MB doesnt do it enough for him ) and makes it a heavier swing weight. I have a question. Where are his WARRIOR wedges? He is still sponsored by them because he has the company logo on his right sleeve.

Big John is a nice guy. I met him in Myrtle Beach in 06 at a Monday After the Masters tournament. Great guy. He puts on a show, thats for sure. He's also got more talent in his big toe than most people on this site do. Say what you want about the guy but he has 2 more major wins than most tour players.

what is the 0 looking symbol after the "flex" on his tmag wood shaft??

That just means one flex. Nventix Nunchuk is a one flex shaft for everyone. Really unique design. I don't know if it's truly for everyone, it is however the most ant-left shaft I've found if you don't mind the weight.

[color=#282828]It weighs 104 grams. They say it has like 3 zones. I mid point that is softer and a butt and tip section that is stiffer... Along with the weight I can see how this would keep you from hitting it left. I would like to hit one cause I imagine its boardy. And having no specific flex seems to probably be detrimental to those with slower swings. Especially at that weight.[/color]

It actually does not have a boardy feeling IMO and when I have most people hit it, I don't tell them the weight until after and most cannot believe it actually weighs that much.

Did he sign with TM ?

He hasn't done anything official according to their tour staff sight. They may be paying a little start up money, but their tour team will get clubs into anyone's hands that wants to try them.

They designed all their stuff to play shorter. I hit the nunchuk at the show last year an was very pleasantly surprised. It definitely flies straighter, and doesn't really want to work either way. Its not boardy. With the shorter length its easy to release it. The added weight is nice. I play all my stuff 1" to .5" short anyway.

I was intrigued as well to say the least. There is still a chance I will put it in play this year.

Cheers
Scott
