What GolfWRXers are saying about forgiving, fade biased drivers
In our forums, our members have been discussing fade biased yet forgiving drivers. WRXer ‘drumdude96’ sets out what he’s looking for, saying: “I need something that helps keep me from shutting the face down too quickly, but that is also pretty good when you don’t hit the sweet spot.”
And our members have been sharing their suggestions.
Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.
- greenwavegolfer: “I think you pretty much nailed it with either of the G425 heads. If the fade bias matters more than the forgiveness, go LST; if the forgiveness matters more than the fade bias, go Max with the weight in the toe. I think either of those would be about your best options though.”
- craz-e: “Original SIM. I was a TM hater too, but I walked into the fitting with the intention of buying what performed best for me.”
- Golfingfanatic: “Mavrik Sub Zero Triple Diamond with a heavy weight in the back instead of the 8g/8g weight configuration.”
- TigerInTheWoods: “The Max LS comes to mind straight away.”

From the seller: (@kcsf): “Scotty Cameron Art of Putting Laguna. -I will regret this one selling for sure. It does have one small nick on the face near the toe as shown, otherwise in amazing new condition. -BOS reconditioned and received last month. Oil can finish as done new by BOS when this putter was released many moons ago. -Head cover is authentic SC and shows age. Velcro is worthless of course, but does stay closed. -Length is 34.25 inches, original shaft. -Grip is old and needs replacing.

Mitsubishi Diamana WB: What you need to know + club build, on-course testing
GolfWRX’s Resident Club Junkie, Brian Knudson, was naturally excited to get his hands on Mitsubishi’s new Diamana WB shaft.
In this video, BK gives you a brief overview of the new WB, builds up a driver, and takes it to the course for some testing.
With the rebirth of the iconic Whiteboard profile, Mitsubishi didn’t just re-issue a classic, but rather infused all the company’s latest tech into a new shaft, paying homage to the original with its quintessentially Hawaiian-inspired stylings. A summary of that impressive roster of technology, below.
- 80-ton Dialead pitch fiber: Positioned in the handle, Dialead is designed to deliver greater ball speed via better energy transfer.
- Aerospace-grade MR70 carbon fiber adds additional strength, and 46-ton fiber in angle plies in the tip section reduce torque for tighter shot dispersion.
- Consistent Feel Design: Engineers target minimal variance across shafts (butt OD, weight, and balance point) to make the fitting process easier.
- Xlink Tech Resin System: Engineers continue to reduce resin content and increase carbon fiber volume for greater feel without sacrificing strength and durability.
