DO you know which model, or did VOLVIK make up something special for this event?

Ever heard of Google? Do a search. “WLD VOLVIK” will bring up the links

Watching with wife. She asked if they take steroids, and I immediately responded NO, then well actually who knows. Are these guys tested ?

50 inch shaft –

That’s 50 inches the way it’s measured in long drive (total length of club standing straight up)…which equates to the 48 inches via the USGA measurement technique. This driver could be used in any USGA competition.

Seriously, this used to be an equipment blog. Now it’s mostly garbage

If that is how you feel then why do you continue to visit the site and even more importantly, post on it, especially considering it is mostly garbage? Nobody forces you to read the articles. You should really consider starting your own site. I’m sure your audience of 1 will thoroughly enjoy the in hand pics of your Cleveland VAS irons, Bullet Hollow Point driver, prototype Alien wedges (stamped of course), and the pride and joy of your bag, your Callaway 3ball putter. You’re in depth reviews and spot on opinions will certainly be missed, but we look forward to providing you with constructive criticism as you embark on your journey of creating the perfect golf equipment website.

I am simply lamenting how the content on the site has been dumbed-down since it was acquired by Conde Nast in 2011
