Second about the reviews

This past weekend I had the opportunity to take the VR STR8-FIT driver to the range to give it a test drive. On Sunday I headed over to the driving range at my local course Stonecreek Golf Club  and hit the new VR driver along with the driver I currently use, the SQ Sumo. The day before I had gone to my local PGA Superstore to hit the SQ Dymo STR8-FIT again to refresh my memory as to the characteristics of this driver, and get some stats from the simulator there. All three drivers have 10.5 degrees of loft and a stiff flex stock shaft. I hit approximately 50 range balls with the new VR driver using three face angle settings — square, 1 degree  open and 1 degree closed. I hit about a dozen balls with each setting. Here I share the results of my test and my opinions of the VR STR8-FIT driver:

FIRST IMPRESSION: DESIGN/APPEARANCE

Out of the box the first impression of the VR STR8-FIT is one of tradition meeting technology. The classic pear shape of the head is a step back from the square headed design of the SQ MachSpeed, and the slight ridge at the back edge of the crown subtly recalls the powerbow of previous driver designs. A handsome and durable metallic black paint job covers the crown, and a glossy finish on the crown is back after two years of a matte finish on the SQ 5000 and SQ Dymo.

The sole of the club reveals the red Compression Channel that resides just behind the leading edge of the clubface and continues back to the trailing edge. Design details like the diamond facet pattern at the back of the sole recall the same element in the back heel and toe of the METHOD putter (link). The black and red color scheme of the VR line distinguishes it from the yellow and black theme of the SQ line.

The stock Aldila Voodoo shaft has an attractive deep burgundy color and pattern, and the butt end of the grip has a dial pattern with lines for each of the 32 face position adjustments. The thoughtfully-designed headcover tops off the look with a combination of leather and nylon details, a handy magnetic closure that opens and closes easily, an embroidered swoosh on the front and raised VR logo on the top.

FIRST IMPRESSION: PERFORMANCE

The first swings on the range really gave me a feeling of power in this driver. The shaft is about an inch longer than the one in my SQ Sumo, so that alone gave me confidence that I could hit the ball farther. The weighting of the head in relation to the shaft and grip felt (Nike Victory Red Tour Driver) comfortable to me, the head did not feel too heavy or too light on the end of the shaft during the swing and the club makes a nice swoosh sound (no pun intended) through the hitting area.

There is a lot of technology in this driver, and knowing that the lie and face angles can be adjusted in 32 different combinations gave me even more confidence in the club. After hitting just a few balls I had the feeling that I had better control over my drives, and knowing the club can be tweaked to fit whatever is going on in my swing on a particular day (one of the main benefits I think an average recreational golfer like myself can get from the adjustability) gave me more faith in my swing and the assurance I could keep the ball in play.

ADJUSTABILITY

The STR8-FIT system makes the club very easy to adjust. The wrench that comes with the club is intuitive to use, and it takes just a few turns to loosen the locking nut and remove the head. Markings on the head and shaft collar make it easy to position the head in any one of the 32 adjustment positions, and grooves in the plastic piece at the end of the shaft guide the head into position. Tightening the locking nut is easy, and the wrench beeps when the locking nut is tight (the wrench has a battery-powered sensor in it).

The 32 face positions make this driver ideal for the better player who can take full advantage of the adjustability to dial in the driver to his particular swing tendencies. The face can be adjusted in .25 degree increments, and the lie angle adjusts from upright to flat (not sure of the degrees here). For the average recreational golfer whose swing is not as consistent (I speak for myself here), this amount and precision of adjustability might be a bit more than he or she really needs — but I think the real advantage here is that on any particular day you can adjust the face angle to counteract any particular negative swing tendencies that are happening in your warm up session. If on the range prior to your round you are slicing or hooking the ball, a few quick turns of the wrench and you can help to straighten out your drives for the particular day (per USGA rules players are not allowed to adjust the club during play).

I think the end result is a greater feeling of trust in your swing during a particular round of golf — if you feel the club will help you hit the ball a bit straighter, I think you're more apt to swing more freely and with more confidence.
