50 inch shaft –
Jaacob Bowden

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.

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.
