MattF 9,561 Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 They weigh significantly less than the original Super Speed. SS are 255, 290, 335 and these are 145, 175, 220. "Most" drivers weigh around 310-320, so I'm a bit dubious of these just because of the weight difference. 6 Quote In the bag: Driver: M5 Project X Even Flow Blue 6.0 Fairway: Sub 70 939X 15° Project X Even Flow Blue 6.0 Hybrid: CBX 119 19° hybrid Project X Even Flow Blue 6.0 Irons: D7 Forged 4-GW Project X Catalyst 80 6.0 Wedge: Smartsole S Putter Tracy Bag: Alpha Convoy 514 Balls: MTB-X or Black Cart: CaddyLite ONE Ver. 8 God Bless America, God save the Queen, God defend New Zealand and thank Christ for Australia!

Looks like they now make cheap-knockoff training aids, too. If they can't get the weight ranges on a training aid right, imagine how crappy their clubs are. 4 Quote In my BR-D4 Stand Bag G410 LST 9* VA Nemesys 65X G410 LST 14.5* Tour AD DI 7X ZU85 18* Tour AD 95X 818 H2 20* Tour AD DI 85X MP20 HMB 4 Tour AD 95X JPX 919 Tour 5-9 Oban CT 115 X(-) Vokey SM7 46F - 54S - 59D ER2 Tour B X Link to post Share on other sites

In this case, the description calls them out as tip weights, while the original SS sticks are total weights. Add in the shaft and a 50-something gram grip and you end up within a few grams of the total weights. DTG may be all clones, but they are under the same umbrella as Sub70 and Hurricane Golf. Never had anything but a positive experience with them (albeit for components like grips and supplies, not clubs). 7 Quote Unofficial WHS Handicap: 9.7 (Last Updated Nov. 27, 2020) Driver: Cobra SpeedZone Xtreme (10.5°, Draw), 44.5", Aldila Rogue Silver 60 (110 MSI) Stiff 17° Hybrid: Callaway Super Hybrid, 41.5", Mitsubishi Tensei CK Pro Orange 80 Hybrid Stiff 21° Hybrid: Callaway Epic Flash, 40", Mitsubishi Kuro Kage Silver 80 Hybrid X-Stiff 4-AW: Sub70 699 (4-6)/699 Pro (7-AW) Combo Set, 1° Flat, 37" 7 Iron, Shafts TBD 54°, 58°: Cobra KING MIM Black, 3° Flat, -1/2" (54°), -1/4" (58°), KBS C-Taper Lite 115 X-Stiff Putter: L.A.B.

Still 50g off from the real thing but not as bad as it seems. @jlukes I would imagine Diamond Tour has gone with lighter sticks to stay out of lawsuit territory. 2 Quote 2020 MGS Hard Rock Challenge SkyCaddie SX400 OGIO Silencer: Followed by Arccos G410+, Tensei Orange Vapor Fly 3, Diamana Blue, Covert 2.0 3H, Kuro Kage Black Wilson D7 Irons 4-GW, Dynamic Gold AMT Glide 52, 56 ES ER2 -ProV1x (left dash) Romans 10:9 Link to post Share on other sites

Kanoito 2,324 Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 I've bought a few sets from them in the past, for a couple of friends who wanted to start golf, but didn't want to pay much. So a $350 complete set with driver, woods, irons, putter and bag seemed like a good deal. Also purchased some components from them. Customer service is top notch, I had a couple of shafts break and they replaced them without questions asked. But I can't say whether the products are true to spec or not... they seemed to do their job fine at that time. 4 Quote SpeedZone 9* w/ Aldila Rogue Silver 60 S X2 Hot 3 Deep 14.5* w/ Aldila Tour Green 75 S JetSpeed 5W 19* w/ Matrix Velox T 69 S OR Super LS 3H 19* w/ Kuro Kage Black 80 S JPX919 Forged 4-PW w/ Modus3 105 S Vokey SM7 50/08F, 54/14F & 58/08M w/ Modus3 115 Wedge ER1 34" w/ SuperStroke Fatso 2.0 Pro / H2NO Lite Cart Bag / 3.0 / NX7 Pro LRF My reviews: MLA Putter // Titleist SM7 // PING i500 // PuttOUT Link to post Share on other sites

If that's the case, then I just may revise my original decision. So, who's going to take one for the team, buy and weigh them?
