Features:
-
When we say this
driver is for the better player, what do we mean? Most of today's
drivers from major players like Nike, Callaway, Titleist, McGregor
etc. have a 1 to 2º closed face. That is because most recreational
golfers have a tendency to slice or push the ball and the slightly
closed face helps get the ball started on a straighter path.
-
The second set of
drivers available today are square or rectangular in design. They
have a higher MOI and are great for getting the ball on a straighter
path even on off center hits.
-
So then what's the
problem? Well the closed face and the square designs make one thing
difficult for you and that is fade the ball. It's easier to hit
straight or draw the ball but difficult to fade.
-
Better players have a
good reliable swing and they like to fade the ball, draw or hit
straight. This is where the Acer XP905 really shines. It's face
angle is square - that means it does not get in the way of your
fading the ball. You are in command. Fade it, draw it or hit
it straight.
-
Featuring a maxed-out
460cc head in traditional cone design, plus advanced Dual
Sole highlights the innovative advancements of this powerful
driver.
-
The unique beveled-cut
sole design ensures stability of the clubhead and proper alignment
at address, important when you are preparing to launch another long
one from the tee. The beveled sole reduces rear-drag, as well as
redistributing the weight for optimal launch.
-
Larger head means
greater MOI, that means greater forgiveness on off center hits.
-
The thin beta titanium face provides maximum rebound
- translates to greater distance.

-
Comes with the Lamkin
Cross Line grip.
-
Choice of shafts - see
section below.
-
Available in Left Hand
(10.5º only) and right hand (10.5º and 12º).
-
We recommend a 12º loft. It will
give you better trajectory and distance. Playability and control further
improves if you use the 12º version, move the ball in a little and
use a longer 4" tee.
-
We don't just sell the clubs - we test them and we play with them. We
test them on the range and then put them into play to get a very good
feel for them. We have put a lot of thought and time in configuring this
club by matching the right head with the right shafts and grip without making it
too expensive. Put our upfront work to your advantage. Now you can go
for those 300 yard drives without a second mortgage.

Shafts:
Before you select the shaft to go with the Acer
XP905
please read the following write up. It will help you select the right shaft.
- The shaft is the engine of your driver. It
does not matter how expensive a clubhead you have - if the shaft is not
right for your swing, the results will not be satisfactory.
- The faster your clubhead speed at impact, the greater the distance. To maximize club head speed and distance, you should play the lightest shaft
you can without losing control. The key here is 'without losing control'. A 300
yard drive is of no use if it is out of bounds.
- Ball flight is affected by several factors like loft, ball position, angle of
attack and wrist position at time of impact. A tip flexible shaft can help
increase launch angle while a stronger tip can help produce a penetrating ball
flight.
- Lighter weight shafts in general are more active than heavier shafts. All things
being equal a lighter shaft will give you longer distance on center hits. It
will be off more on off-center hits. Take into consideration how stable your
swing is. The more stable and accurate your
swing and swing path, the lighter the shaft you should consider. The
more load you apply to the shaft at the last quarter of the swing, the lower the
torque and heavier the shaft needs to be.
- Newton's Second Law:
Newton's second law is one of the laws of
physics that applies to golf. F = m a I = m r2 T = (m r2 ) A
F=force, m=mass, A=rotational acceleration, a=linear acceleration, r=radius,
I=inertia, T=torque
- Moment of Inertia (MOI):
MOI is the term applied to a clubhead's resistance to twisting when the ball
is struck. It is more important on off center hits. If you hit the ball on
the toe of the clubhead, a clubhead with a higher MOI will twist less as a
result of the miss hit, creating a better chance that the ball will still go
straight or at least not deviate too much from it's intended path.
- Torque:
Torque is a shaft's resistance to twisting during a golf swing. A higher
torque rating means the shaft twists more and too much torque can lead to
the head turning.
- The longer the shaft, the bigger the head or the heavier
the club head, the higher the moment of inertia. The higher the MOI, the higher the torsional load applied to the shaft. Therefore, if
you are using a big head or an extra long shaft and have a high swing speed, you need to
consider using a lower torque shaft to compensate for the extra load applied to
the shaft.
Here are the shaft options we have configured for you.

The swing speed to distance ratios
above are not related to this driver or shaft. These are averages, i.e., an
average person with this swing speed will hit the ball so far with an average
driver on center hits. We hope with this driver and the right shaft, you will do
better.
Note:
When making payment, in the comments section of the order form, mention
whether you prefer left hand or right and also let us know your
preferences for driver loft, shaft make/model and flex. Otherwise, the
default will be shipped out which is the right handed, 12º loft driver with the
Apollo Ultralight Shadow graphite
shaft in regular
flex.
Note:
In case we have confused you, you
will get a fully assembled driver that includes the Acer XP905
head, a shaft of your choice and a Lamkin Cross Line grip. All the above write up is to give
you a better understanding of what you are getting.
Questions & Customization:
We can customize the shaft
flex, length,
type and grips. If you have customization requirements or a related question,
