A friend of mine has been playing one for a couple years. Kicked his Callaway (not sure what model, but think it was a late model Bertha of some sort) out of the bag. He even hits it off the deck.

Has anyone gamed or hit these before? What was you experience?

I've been on this forum for a long time... and have never really heard anyone talk about these drivers... maybe it's a hidden gem that hasn't been discovered in 8 years, but in my experience, the brands that people like and trust get hyped up here... (Sub70 has a stellar reputation and I was impressed by their quality and service)...

 

They definitely have a presence on the long drive market, but I wonder how much difference their is between the quality their staffers get and what they sell to the public.

 

I'm on their e-mail list and get some communications that make me trust the brand less... I got an e-mail today that I could get a driver below MSRP if I agreed to be a tester for them, for instance... Nothing wrong with giving smaller brands a try, but they feel more like a "Hammer" brand than a solid DTC company.

I haven't used one but know friends that have. Consensus was that quality and forgiveness were both low compared to OEMs.  They make a lot of non-conforming stuff and I think at one time they catered to long-drive guys. For the price they seem to sell for, I can't see how they would be worth a try. At my local golf shop I can try all the OEMs on a GC quad with tons of shaft options... seems like a smarter path to finding a driver for most people.

I think the discounted price to be a tester is still pretty high.  I have friends that have them.  Good quality and the adapter can also be used with Callaway.  They cater more to LD so the drivers hold up better for their speed.  
 

The non-conforming part is rather interesting and the owner Lance makes a good point that many people don’t realize about the actual speed needed to get the maximum potential out of any OEM or any conforming driver.  It’s all for recreation and making the game more fun.  Companies sell shafts for people that can only swing 75 mph, why not make a head for people that only swing 75?

Purchased a F11 Pro coming up on a year ago. Broke the first one in a month and the customer service was great and had me a replacement in a week. Since then I've had 0 issues with it and the performance is fantastic. One of the few brands that make a lower degree left handed driver. Have this dialed down to 6.5 degrees for regular play with a hzrdus smoke green which has been rock solid. Would definitely suggest giving them a try. I'll be purchasing their F11 LD model shortly.
