oh my goodness, the man is back!!!!!!

[Pure745]

Dizz you are MONSTER bro!  Good stuff as usual

[Puppetmaster]

Damn, that Anser FW looks great. I got good numbers from the driver on a Flightscope too.

How does the Elements play in a hybrid? I demoed all three profiles MK, DK, and RK in a driver and they were very nice shafts, they performed very close to the DI for me, but with subtle differences between each profile.

And nice swing, we finally got to see it! Haha.

I would say you're pretty close, I don't know a TON about the different profiles because nobody really carries them.  This was a hybrid built in tour and I only hit a handful of balls with it, I really like my VTS Black a lot better so I didn't go too much further than that.

Hard to say this but I think the Anser is in the bag for the next round.  Did some on course testing today with multiple balls.

[mackepa]

Every time I read this thread you have more new toys! What balls did you try out?

[J.W.]

I use Pro V1's but I was testing two drivers... Anser and G20.

[J_D]

What kind of shoes do you wear now?

[mnplayer]

You have any problems with Anser heads not coming off of the shafts when trying to adjust them? Mine just will not budge.

[J.W.]

The more you hit it the tighter it gets... something PING did with it.  They explained that to me not sure exactly how it works though.  Tilt it to the side and pull.

[JaxBeachNole]

Very sweet setup. I'm curious about the 3 wood tip you had on your ahina 3 wood. Do you usually tip 1/2"? or was that something unique for that club.

I am in the middle of a Diamana/Speeder TS battle to the death and would appreciate it.

I was told a very scientific way of getting it to come apart by a Ping WRX phone rep - Hold it grip end down, loosen the screw completely, raise the grip off the ground a few inches.... and drop it. Works.

The guy who ordered it for me decided the specs for it.  The last few fairways and hybrids he's done that way and it's been good.  First time I've been totally happy with the fairway and hybrid in a long time.

Sounds like a good combo. Nice stuff

[vix02]

Great swing.  Love the tempo!

Keep us updated with the Ansers.  they look very sweet!

[J.W.]

A couple shots of the new stuff.  I do like this Anser better than my G20 although I'll keep the G around for awhile.

Anser looks better, sounds/feels better, gets me better launch conditions and I actually hit it with a little less curve on the misses.  Really good driver.

[Pure745]

Oh man!! Those look so sick!

[mackepa]

I still have not hit the Anser and I really want to! I haven't heard a single bad review yet. I might have to check one out

[J.W.]

I'll have an update on Monday or Tuesday next week when my 913D3 shows up.  I'm pretty excited to get that on the course before the weather turns.  Going back to a regular length putter as well.

Dude, this is AWESOME.  This is the exact combo I want to order up.  How was the BB upcharge vs DI?

Deal, can I hit a few balls with it first?
