I have had mine for about a year now. I LOVE it! I have hit a couple of drives close to or over 400. Its solid, has a nice sound, and is quite forgiving. Its a good club to consider if your looking for a new driver.

I definitely agree with the sound - it's very pleasant compare to Cobra 440SZ. I think it's a bit longer too even though I'm not driving anywhere near 400 or 300 for that matter.

Gee.....we've got another 400 yarder in our midst. I guess we know which option he took in the 400 yard drives or 1 putt thread.

I have the 370 cc with an Aldila NV 65s in it, and I've actually seen an increase in my ballspeed and control using this combo. I love it to death.

Interesting I have the 10 deg with an aldila NV65s in it - and it is the sweetest thing I have ever had - it is an awesome combo

I think it was your praise of it that convinced me to give it a try.

Thumbs up

I own both the Ping G2, Cleveland Comp and the Mizuno Mp001 460 Comp - all with the Adila Nv65 Stifff shafts, and I really love them all.

I've nevet hit my drives better after the new 460 comp heads were introduced.
The Aldila Nv65 shafts does wonders to my consistency with the driver, and I love all my 3 great drivers (i won the Ping G2 in a competition and had the Cleveland Comp for my birthday)

The sweetest to hit driver I've ever hit though has to be my Mizuno Mp001 460 Comp probablt because of its forged comp head. It's not quite as forgiving as my other two drivers, but still very forgiving, and the feeling you get when you hit one in the sweet spot is out of this world.
I give the Mizuno Mp001 460 Comp an eagle - AWESOME DRIVER

Good to hear I had some positive influence. I had always thought about going with the Grafalloy prolite - but so happy I decided to stick with the Aldila.

I'm very tempted the local 2ndSwing has them for the $149 price and they had a Grafalloy Blue in the one...the listed them as 370 and 400cc on their display but I couldn't see how to determine which version was which on the clubheads and the guy working there was stymied too!

I know on the 460 version it's stamped on the toe...anyways, I'd like to get the 400cc version and would like to make sure if I did pull the trigger.

Any help would be appreciated...
