GolfIsEasy 6 Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Anyone playing these? I was playing an R7 and Wilson Cortex. Cortex is a great club. Ran across Cleveland Classic 10.5( 2012 model) and decided to give it a try( loved the retro looks) came with Miyazaki 4R shaft( I’m 60) and I loved it.! Decided I wanted more rollout so bought Classic XL 9.5) adjustable. Came with Matrix Ozik what that just didn’t seem to work well. Constant slice whatever the adjustment was. Found a Miyazaki JDL 5R shaft and the difference is amazing. These are great shafts and excellent drivers. Either on is a winner although I get more rollout with 9.5. Grab one if you get the chance!

MadMex 353 Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 I tried, it's the only driver I pre-ordered, was playing a Comp 420 at the timed, loved it, so figure i try this,, nope! either high and to the left or low and to the right, if somewhere down the middle, it was shoulder high. Could not figure out why, I could hit the mashie hybrids with same shaft with no problem. Gave it to my brother in law who could hit it a mile , high, long and straight,,, Quote DRIVER: Cobra F-8 set at 10.5, Aldila NV 2KXV Blue 60 (R) 44 1/2 " 3 & 5 WOOD: Callaway XR-16, Fujikura Speeder Evolution 565 Red (R) IRONS 5-SW: PING G-700, 2 upright, std loft Alta CB (R) + 1/2" HYBRID 3-4: PING G-410, 1 upright, Alta CB 70 Red (R) + 1/2" PUTTER: Byron Experimental GSS Link to post Share on other sites
Nat 3 Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 My 25 yo son plays a tour issue classic XL 9.5*. He has a swing speed 125+, and it works really well for him. It’s not the most forgiving, he sprays it some, but that is more user operator. When he catches it it goes 300 on a perfect trajectory Quote Driver: Epic, HAZRDUS T55 reg 3 wood: Tour Edge CB4 16.5*, Kura Kage 60 reg Hybrids: Srixon H45 19* & 22*, Kura Kage 70H, reg Irons: Golfworks KE4 Tour+ 5-GW, Nippon 950h reg Wedges: Golfworks M series yellow 54* Nippon 950GH, & 58* FST 115 Putter: TM Tour Spider red Ball: Srixon Zstar Bag: Sun Mountain 2.5 Link to post Share on other sites
GolfIsEasy 6 Posted January 17 Author Share Posted January 17 I have both drivers. I play the XL because the Miyazaki JDL 5R just feels better than the C Kia shaft that is mated to the Classic. Both are outstanding and even tho it’s 7 years old it’s in my bag. Both are forgiving and I can keep either in the fairway. The XL is adjustable and I have it set .75 left for a slight draw bias. I am a 11 handicap and love both. You can’t go wrong. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BIG STU 7,639 Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 I had one of those heads with adjuster and all in a box in the shop. Can not remember where I got it. Anyhow last year one of my buds on WRX mentioned wanting one. I boxed it up and sent it to him. I forgot what shaft he said he put in it but he says it is a cannon.
