Our first step into the fairway wood market had to be a bold one. After reviewing the high speed photographs from the testing phase of the smooth face heads, we found a series of images that had, what looked to be some kind of smoke at both ends of the face.
After quite a bit of study, it turns out that I was looking at the ‘water test’ images. WE alternately sprayed the ball and the face to simulate the many conditions that a golfer could face on the course. It turns out that the ‘smoke’ that we saw was water leaving the face…high in th toe area, and low in the heel area.
So, we simply put the only two scorelines that this head has, on the same angle that the water wanted to use to leave the face in the high speed pictures, to aid the natural tendencies of the clubhead in removing debris and water from destroying the otherwise perfect shot.
The Solitaire brings with it a very unique bi-level toe and heel design to promote optimal trajectory. The finest maraging Kobe Steel and midsize body affords you the confidence to attack the ball from any lie. |
