I really lucked out. It was supposed to be the "standard" model but came and was the "pro" model with adjustable loft and draw or fade. And it had a $89 sticker on it. Here's the pics. Is this a good deal?

Durn right, it's a good deal!!!!! Even though I was never a fan of Nike, they made some good equipment. The Covert line was one of their better ones!!!! We've got 60's and 70's all week next week. Tee times already set. When can we expect you?????

The head is about 198, shaft is 67, and the grip is 62. I don't know about the details.

For some reason I was thinking about my Cleveland SL290. Yes, the R540 is heavier, but nearly as heavy as the Titleist 983K with the X100 in it. I took the R540 to the range yesterday. There was a head wind so it was hard to judge the distance. However, accuracy was great. it was like throwing darts out there.

I thought that pic was the SL290. My bad.

The R540 is the one I bought from the gut over at Golf Buzz then sand blasted and tumbled. I'm quite happy with how it turned out. I'm going to give my V-Steels the same treatment.

So, the balls went about 10 feet???

Can someone who speaks Irish read a Scottish owner's manual? I assume the steering wheel is on the wrong side, no matter which of those countries the auto comes from? Do you have to wear kilts to pick up the car, then change back into your regular clothes once you leave Scotland? Inquiring minds want to know.......

I can throw a dart a long way Jebediah.
