Comments on: The Off Season continued… http://www.jesseortizdesignstudio.com/uncategorized/the-off-season-continued/ Jesse's Rant Wed, 03 Dec 2008 20:51:57 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.1.3 By: Mike http://www.jesseortizdesignstudio.com/uncategorized/the-off-season-continued/#comment-65 Mike Tue, 08 Jan 2008 01:35:28 +0000 http://www.jesseortizdesignstudio.com/uncategorized/the-off-season-continued/#comment-65 Great post Jesse. Looking forward to the new driver. I'll start playing golf around March 1st and will be looking to replace my old one, which I won't mention by name here. That gear effect comment surprised me, but after doing a bit of reading, it makes sense. My question though is this: Just how effective are metal heads at transmitting the gear effect to today's golf ball ? Thanks for your willingness to educate us. Great post Jesse.

I keep checking the website to see an announcement. Let us know soon. Then of course I will have to try the driver too.

I've lived in Colorado, and travelled to Myrtle Beach often. I like my driver shaft for the altitude since it gets the ball up in the air, but bought a different shaft for the same driver model at the beach, to keep the ball lower in the wind (I'm only a ten index and don't seem to have the talent to do this with my swing). I know from your October 5th posting that the shaft isn't more important than head design, but what are your thoughts on the new rulings of interchangable shaft systems for clubs (similar to the changing the weights of those lesser designed clubheads)? Have you considered this for your designs? I’ve never been unsatisfied buying quality, and I appreciate the efforts of the studio. I’ve lived in Colorado, and travelled to Myrtle Beach often.

However, the 10.5 degree loft available might be to much for my 105mph-110mph swing speed. Since lofts generally are within a 1 degree tolerance, would it be possible to get a hand selected LH version of the driver that measures about 9.5 or 10 degrees?
