I assembled a 10.5 to a Solutions shaft
An interesting thing happened today….
I assembled a 10.5 to a Solutions shaft and went to our Cedar Rapids location to hit in the simulator for some raw feedback.
When I got there two Simulators were being used by a bachelor party, one is down for repairs and the other one was open.
Said hello to the members sitting in the clubhouse and Ruedy (one of the guys who helps me) asked what was under the cover…hnded him the driver and he said: “DAY-UM! That is a perty head…(hands it to the guy next to him, and it gets passed around)…
While grab a beer, Ruedy takes the club to the simulator hits a few and comes back and said “That sucker is givein me huge numbers! Kevin you gotta try this”.
Kevin is our asst pro who JUST got his PGA certification and gets everything he wants free from Taylor-Made.
Kevin grabs it and goes to the Sim to hit it himself….he’s gone for 10 minutes or so….rushes back to where we were and said to me that he thought something was wrong because unlike his TM where he fights slices, he said this was doing nothing but straight…lower launch but greater carry.
He asks me if I’m in a hurry to go? I assured him I was in no hurry.
He grabs a bucket of balls, and goes outside to the range and starts hitting balls in the snow (about 34* F).
We’re looking out the window at him and people were coming in sitting down and seeing this idiot hitting drives in the snow.
Finally, Kevin comes back in….eyes as big as saucers….he walks over to where I was now eating our famous ½ Angus burger (cheap plug) and some one said: “Hey Kev, what were you hitting out there?”
Without missing a beat, Kevin said: “I think the future”.
He bought mine from me right there on the spot and I took orders for three more, within five minutes.
