Large carbon fiber composite crown and titanium body create a low, deep center of gravity for maximum distance
Innovative graphite toe insert helps re-distribute weight low and towards the heel to square the face at impact

Handicap 20-30
I recently went down to my local golf shop intent on finding a driver that would make me a better golfer. It came down to two options, the benross v10 or this mx500. Once i was on the range it was not a contest, the mx500 hits sweet and strate and can deliver great distance! what a club!

Handicap 6 - 10
I recently went Driver hunting. I went to just about every store around and hit all the big names, Nike, Cleveland, Ping, TaylorMade, etc. I had my heart set on the r7. The guy at the shop suugested that I try the MX-500. (I love Mizuno irons, but a Mizuno driver?) He taped it up for me. Once I hit it, it was over. The others weren't even close. To me, this driver is gold! Just give it a try...

Hello,
I understand most drivers come in a 10.5 and 9.5 degree loft. I use a 10.5. When teeing off, my ball usually has a lot of loft and goes really high in the air, should I switch to a 9.5 degree

Thank you for your question.
Is it worth testing out? Absolutely. Will the 9.5 give you a more penetrating ball flight is the question. Most golfers would kill to have more hang time but I know how you feel. I was in the same boat at one time and tested different lofts much like you. I ended up staying with the higher loft though. I would test it prior to officially making a move.
Play Well,
Johnny

The higher loft will also be more controllable of the tee..

If you are not a low handicap golfer, where you play can make a lot of difference in driver loft choices. In the northern US. especially on the plains, wind can be a huge factor in driver loft effect. We have 160 yd par 3's where 10/12 handicap golfers are using drivers straight into a 35 mph wind. I use a 9.5 TM Burner draw. But I have a Titlist 10.5 I take to Phoenix (low or no wind) and FL (tree lined courses). High trajectory on windy links courses can really beat you up with a high loft. //
my avg swing speed is about 80 to 90 . what would be the best Shaft Flex for me

Thank you for your question.
You would fall in the 'Regular' flex category based upon your swing speed.
Please let me know if you have any other questions.
Thank you,
Johnny

You're definitely a regular flex
Senior flex starts from 70-80
Regular is from 80 to about 100
Stiff 100 to 115ish
X-stiff 115+
I have used the YS-6 shaft in the 905T and the FT-i with pretty good success. Can you name me a couple other shafts that you think would give me the same "feel" and control? Thanks.

Thank you for your inquiry. There are a few other brands that have similar weight and launch profiles of the Graphite Design YS series. You should notice that the Aldila NVS 65, the Graphalloy ProLaunch 65, the UST V2 67, and the Fujikura E360 are all very comparable.

i have the graphalloy prolaunch 65 and it works great!is is very flexible.
My avg club speed was measured to be 108 mph , should I be looking at a extra stiff shaft
A
02/24/2009 2:00 PMGolfballs.com Employee: Andy
That clubhead speed is considered to be high enough for an extra stiff. Typically speaking, anyone who can swing their driver 105+ should be in extra stiff.
Great Question. Everything is subjective to your swing though. Do you tend to swing slower or more quickly? The rule of thumb is that if your swing speed is slower than 95mph then you should probably get a regular flex driver and if your swing is over 100mph then you should probably get a stiff flex driver. That leaves a little grey area that you from 95 to 100 where you can use either flex.
I hope this helps.
