Gotta give em props for being revolutionary with this. See if it works, I would like to try it.

One thin I notice in JDM gear, is that forged sells... Putters are forged, metalwood faces are forged, which I would think is not always a positive thing... But this, is something I'd love to try. Very revolutionary, cutting edge thing. Not worth me dropping a grand+ to 'try', though, as I could easily build a good bag for that, but intriguing nonetheless.

I haven't done a followup review yet because the weather we have had in the DC area this month has been the worst March weather Ive ever seen. (3 inches of snow yesterday) I have squeezed my share of rounds in but most of the time the temps have been in the 30s and 40s. I believe these temps have affected the rebound factor of the multi layered plastic face as it seems to be more sensitive to cold due to its material and face having so many thin layers. . So far the club has been fairly forgiving, and given the same loft it launches lower and has less draw bias than the 2012 Glorie. In the standard position 10.5 model it setup closed. I have it at the lowest most open setting and it sets up square with a true loft of 10 degrees. Ball flight has been neutral to a slight fade, with a mid trajectory, compared to the high draw ballflight of the 2012 Glorie. I actually hit my longest drive of the winter season using the Reserve and a Titleist SO LO ball(go figure). IT was also the only window Ive played where the temps were near 60. MY plan with this club is to have it 46 to 46.5 inches, if I can handle it. I am eyeing the new PROJECT X 39 gram shaft as my next project for this head and will start at 46.5 inches.
