Good Points: Nicely weighted, can feel the head weight throughout the swing. Poke's it out there pretty good distance, difficult to really snap hook it or hit a bad slice if you put a half-decent swing on it. Unique, not many people you golf with will have one. Nice deep face sets up well for tall tees. Stock shaft is pretty nice (mitsubishi rayon).
Bad Points: The red reflective painting on part of the head makes it seem like a fly is staring back up at you. Had a hard time drawing the ball consistently until I put some lead tape on the heel.
General comments: What a great value for a high MOI driver. This smaller company uses high-quality design and materials to make a great MOI driver with tons of path and distance forgiveness. I love that they realized that the shaft is really as important for overall performance (distance, trajectory) - a big fan of the stock shaft. I played this head-head with the Nike Sumo 5900 which looks bigger, but hit this farther on average 5-10 yards and had a better sense of head weight and direction than the NIke. A great value, unique and cool shape, and great look aside from the bug thing.
