  1. I’ve tested the R1, R15 and Sldr. I hit a thousands of balls switching
    clubs. I omitted all off strikes. I used the exact same shaft (Matrix Ozik
    black tie 7m3 Xflex) on all three heads with. The club head speed I had
    most was 127mph so I averaged all the 127’s and there was less than a 2
    yards between all three. I then added up all the ones with 1cm off centre
    hits and less than 2 yards difference. Looking at the data the difference
    could easily be accounted to less slight different trajectories. Drivers
    are released to rip us off. They all claim more distance. If we believed
    this, dustin johnson a average would have gone up 30yds the last 3 years
    and yet it’s the similar

  2. R1 has a more forgiving face on miss hits compared to the sldr when hit by
    a robot. To be a fair test you’d have to hit 1000 balls with each. Whe you
    do test one club after the other, you’ll likely get more length as the test
    goes on( so think the latter driver maybe longer) but you’ll tire, so
    you’ll have more miss hits. If you did this test the same on 10 different
    occasions switching order of heads you’d have different results. The test
    study is slightly scientific, but nowhere near conclusive. Ie you wasted
    your time

  3. I’m a physicist and changing moi and loft is just another way of returning
    the same spin and launch conditions. The physics around ball flight cannot
    change
