Re: Nike Dymo - first impressions

Interesting, I was expecting you to come back and say you hated it.

Where'd you find it at that price, for that low amount of coin, it might be worth trying out?

Re: Nike Dymo - first impressions

yep, Regular flex. I was killing the thing. I really can hit any flex i find without a lot of issues but this thing felt quite stout for a R flex. If I hit it today like I did yesterday I am bagging it for sure. The combination of length and accuracy is really amazing in this club. A complete surprise to say the least.

Ughh.. I don't even wanna hit one...

Dont you hate when you find something that just plain WORKS, and you undoubtedly would just never have thought you'd even try it?

Re: Nike Dymo - first impressions

What can you do. I hammered this POS again last night. Makes me ill to even say it, but for the time being this is staying in the bag.

You are a lefty, I predict you'll be hitting it long and right soon.

Re: Nike Dymo - first impressions

Hammered it again last night, and I mean hammered it. Towering baby draws. Using GPS to measure I hit 3 drives longer than 270 (272, 275 and 277). These are mammoth for me. I normally run around the 245 range on good pokes. This thing just carries forever, even wind doesnt seem to effect it. Accuracy is also blowing me away. Two-three more rounds like this and I will have an R9 with a couple tips and shafts for sale.

That's bordering on lunacy - if it were claimed by someone unknown to us we'd be ripping them to shreds. Sounds like I might need to get my hands on one of these ugly things. If a club gave me 30 yards I might have to take it to bed with me

Re: Nike Dymo - first impressions

Speaking of which.. How do you like that Evolver? Looks damn crazy with all the settings.

Hard to say yet - we're still on our honeymoon. But so far, she's a damn firecracker. Honestly I'm liking the club so much I'm waiting for it to shit on my couch or something - there has to be a bad side, but it hasn't shown itself yet. I'm sure it will tomorrow since I posted that, though. I know no drivers have hotter faces than anything else these days, but I swear right at impact on a good strike it feels like time slows down like in a John Woo movie and then just unleashes like a monster.

The problem is that I don't know what's what - that post I made about good shafts, those are the shafts I'm trying in the Evolver. So for all I know I'd feel that with a DVS in anything - I don't really care, because it's GOOD. I just can't write a decent review because both the head and shaft are variables in the situation.

What I can tell you is that I've hit more solid drives off this club in the week and a half I've had it than I have off all 5 of the other drivers I've had in the past 3 years. Like I said, I'm just waiting for it to key my truck and empty my checking account or something, because so far it's doing too much right.

Re: Nike Dymo - first impressions

R9 with 2 shafts is going up for sale tomorrow. This damn Dymo is the real deal. Towering, hammered draws one after the other. Unreal.
