The good news is it is very easy to pull Steelfibers if you wish to change to another set. The steel outer shell is pretty durable. Of course I do my own work so there is no expense for re-shafting and I know it isn't cheap to have not done by someone good. Good luck and congrats! 2 Quote Driver: TaylorMade SIM Max ...

You should put some Miura PP-9003 heads on them. The Straight neck has little offset. Can find them on the Bay. I almost considered these.

Sets in 5 and cures in 30. i'm super conservative on the club building, so i have always feared the quick set stuff. always felt like i would make a mistake and feel like i have more room for error with the 24 hour. at least more room for error from a timing perspective.

For me personally, I feel more comfortable using a 0.370 hand reamer than sanding down the shaft tips, feels like the hand reamer is harder to screw up. 2 Quote Follow my golf journey to break into the 80s Current tester for the Titleist TSi Driver Spring 2020 MGS Tester for the Fujikura Motore X Shaft Updated 12/27/2020 Driver: TSi 2 - Graphite Design AD-XC 6S Hybrids: SIM Max 3H, 4H - Matrix Ozik 85S Irons: ZX5 5 - PW - Nippon Modus 120 S Wedges: CBX 2 54, CBX Full Face 58 - KBS Hi-Rev S Putter: ER2 Link to post Share on other sites

The look is very similar, I'm not sure about the 699 being a progressive set like the 0211's however. No knock on the Sub 70 brand, but at $89 per club, the PXGs are the best deal in golf right now.
