SPY VIP GolfSpy_X Posted March 11, 2011 SPY VIP Share Posted March 11, 2011 This just arrived so I wanted to shoot pictures and give you the info that was provided by: HIREKO GOLF From Website: Golfers try to obtain more distance by using a lighter weight shaft, which most do so already. But that is only half of the equation if someone is seeking additional distance. The other component for tape measure drives is to increase the club length for greater leverage. But there is a potential problem: existing head weights are too heavy, creating a club that feels unwieldy. The solution is the Acer XF Leggera. A lighter weight head, which when married to today's lighter and longer length shafts, reduces the overall weight of the club for an even faster clubhead speed. Featuring advanced manufacturing which sheds the weight from only the crown area and ensures the center of gravity is in the right place to create those monstrous drives you have only dreamed of. Greed is good, so go long and not wrong, with the Acer XF Leggera. MSRP: $64.95 per clubhead ASSEMBLED: $104.95 custom assembled HIREKO GOLF #TruthDigest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin66 Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 I'm not a believer in the "lighter = longer" theory, on the whole. More mass at impact means better energy output at impact. That said, it's just like everything in golf: there are no absolutes. Someone is going to benefit from this (or Integra's 175g version) technology. As an almost across the board Acer player (only my wedges and putter aren't) I personally stand by their quality and playability (sadly, I'm not being paid to say that). I've never regretted ditching the OEMs, and the only reason why I have an OEM putter is because I can't find what I want in component form (which is made a tad tougher being LH). I don't miss the upcharges; I've never been a "see what I'm gaming?" type of person... I just want to play, and play as best I can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBones Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 These XF drivers are really nice. I just built one for my grandfather, with a UST Comp 75 R-flex, and he absolutely loves it. I have a few extra shafts lying around, so I have though about picking this one up and giving it a try. You gonna be reviewing this anytime soon?

Justin66 Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 hey justin66, Have you placed your order yet? I'm going to preorder the XF (not the Leggera) Friday. After rereading what I wrote earlier, I sound like a fanboy... Ugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
