Those are some serious lookers 

They sold me just with naming something batwing, haha

I'm liking the flat profile look (similar to the PING G 400 series).  Also, anyone know whether the key difference between the Callaway "Opti-Fit and Titleist "Sure Fit" hosel systems?  This article suggests they differ... but is that just the manner in which the "secret decoder" works?  

As well as I hit my G400 3w, I really don't understand why that 4w has my eye .  Add yet another product to the must try list.

IMO, they all try to accomplish the same thing but do it in slightly different ways.  For example the Opti-fit doesn’t require shaft rotation to accomplish the loft and lie changes, some change lie angles some don’t.   Some manufacturers also offer non “off the rack” adapters to perform different adjustments than the stock adapter.  Also based on how the face angle changes at setup, it may be better to deloft a higher lofted wood than to loft up a lower lofted…or vice versa.  What we tend to forget is that the adapters are really fitting tools and help minimized fitting configurations that need to be maintained in stores; and not something we should change over time.

Look great but I’ll stick to my setup. Unless they make an ls 7w version I’ll keep mine. Getting fit for a fairway was one of the best moves I’ve done.
