Could you PM me some info on Wishon and Geek heads?
What kind of fatigue testing have you run on your club heads? With a lower density, higher hardness, and greater elongation percentage as a materials scientist that adds up to higher fatigue. Now the average golfer will most likely never hit enough balls to fatigue the head, but I have done it to my last two drivers before my current Adams, and I was just wondering what kind of data you have generated on the longevity of this club head with repeated ball striking.
I see someone posted pictures for us....On another note, do you have pictures of this driver? It is neat to hear about all the material design choices that went into it, but I would still like to see the driver itself in all its glory.
Rory,
Can you share anything about the face design? I'm sure I'm guilty of drinking too much of the Wishon punch on face design (but it probably makes sense since the OEMs push it too). Specifically, since the USGA tests CT/COR in the center of the face, many face designs have thicker middle sections and thinner sides to enlarge the effective sweet spot. (the whole variable face thickness thing)
I'm still anxiously awaiting an invoice from you so I can try this TVC head myself, but I noticed on the tour swing website the following about the TVC:
"We focused on face technology, utilizing the densest titanium material available, TVC Titanium. Hence the name of the head “TVC”. TVC allows us to produce a constant thickness face utilizing a state-of-the-art material, resulting in incredible feel and performance along with forgiveness on off-center hits."
Can you help me reconcile the "constant thickness face" with what we've all been reading the past couple years about VFT?
Funny how we had almost the same discussion when the Renegade was released.

Not to piss in anyones Wheaties but I don't know of anyone here who picked up one of those & actually plays it anymore. I have let others use mine at the range & without exception they have disliked it quite a bit.
Hope this new driver works out better.
