Tourstage Bridgestone ViQ driver
The beautiful clubhas been developed to ensure greater distance with consistent big drives, and it also allows for steady distance performance even on off-centre hits.
Bridgestone's new Tourstage ViQ driver comes with technology designed to add distance to every shot. Incorporating the "Impact Management System", which Bridgestone says features four new technologies that will take the company's Tourstage ViQ driver manufacturing portfolio to a higher level, this is definitely one that should be tried.
TheDriver also has a "Triple Turbo Rubber Structure" that offers a crisp feel and has a "Super Turbo Rubber" adopted in the head, shaft and grip. The center of gravity is placed deep but at a spot that creates optimal trajectory and spin. The new vT-50w shaft was redesigned to not only be stable but reduce rounding on load and return quickly to its original shape to square up at impact.
A new face design with extra large sweet spot features variable thickness and back face grooves. This enhances not only feel but ball speeds and expands the sweet area by over 13% over the previous ViQ. The center of gravity is placed deep but at a spot that creates optimal trajectory and spin. The new vT-50w shaft was redesigned to not only be stable but reduce rounding on load and return quickly to its original shape to square up at impact. This 460cc conforming all Ti driver is available in 9.5 10.5 Degree with the mid kicking VT-50w shaft.
Garrigus, who qualified for this winners-only event in the final PGA Tour event of the year at Disney, spent his honeymoon on Maui and couldn't wait to get back. This week is as relaxing as there is on tour, with only a 32-man field and no cut. It's the first time Garrigus has teed it up with a guarantee of making money.
The approached the design keeping in mind that golf is as much a mental game as it is physical and designed a new driver pleasing to the eye and easy to swing and square up visually with a gradient crown and gradient color shaft with grip alignment.
