diablo edge driver

hi all.
i've been looking around the forum for reviews of the diablo edge driver.
it seems to be getting good reviews from the US forums and review pages.
anybody using the driver locally and can share how it hits ?

i'm looking at the standard one, US specs. a little info would go a long way.
thanks in advance guys. =)

so far i only know one person in forum is using it

look for mysticsea he can give you some review

I only use diablo driver not diablo edge. i would say diablo is a good and forgiving driver

i am waiting for "durian" to drop for this driver ... hhehe

Octane is out already, saw it at Isetan Scotts. Octane Tour is smaller... if u prefer small head

yup, I saw it at panwest last weekend too

Edge is straight and launches high (quite high) for the US spec habanero shaft. For Jap spec Edge, the R was too whippy and inconsistent direction. But I like the original Diablo better, both US and Jap specs had good trajectories for me, plus "durian" already dropped (if you still can find any new ones around). Fwiw, I use R7460 Jap spec SR, one kaki uses Ping rapture jap spec, one kaki uses the old diablo jap spec another the ZL jap spec, and the diablo is most reliable of the 4 when I hit them side by side, always go where you aim, only shorter than Ping rapture. ZL is always straight but not long (so sian recent Barclays last round to see Poulter outdriven by korean Kang KN and Adam Scott by 20 meteres whenever all 3 use drivers, very demoralizing for poulter fans too!).

thanks for the replies. heading down to golf house tonight to give it a go. i found a shop in far east letting it go at 350 if i'm not wrong with a free diablo 3 wood. good deal? haha

from what i know, the club head technology of the diablo vs the diablo edge is very different. diablo edge utilizes forged composite in the club head as compared to traditional titanium in the diablo

i went to golf house just now to test out the driver. has a real solid feel to it during ball contact, but it didnt sound as fantastic as i have imagined. thanks for all the replies guys!

yes, sound not as loud as Ping or Cobra, but the feel is great Smile

i bought the callaway diablo octane black on new year's day 2011. 10.5 deg loft, regular flex project x 5.0 shaft, and golf pride grips. haven't taken it out to course yet but have tried it on range.

i really enjoy using this driver. it is quite easy to use and i could get consistently good distance on it. it makes a solid sound on contact.

i was previously using a taylormade r7 xR special edition which i got from a friend. comparing the two, i would say the diablo octane black is easier to hit, and has a better feel to it.

now to work on my swing....

Subject: Re: diablo edge driver Fri Jan 14, 2011 9:22 am

think it is possible to get at sgd220...

bought a diablo edge driver JV spec with L shaft for my wife 2-3 weeks ago at pan west... paid abt sgd230...

she had tried it at the range and like it compare to ft-9 which she used earlier...

The "Edge" is definitely an upgrade from the original Diablo

Junior Golfer Posts : 219 Join date : 2010-03-28

Just back from panwest. JV version is 399? Only US version is 299?

Confused...
