For the first time in the history of these championships, Geek took first in all four divisions, an impressive showing. The Geek clubheads are used by the longdrive guys because they're long, low spin, and they hold up to the extreme stresses placed on the clubheads by these competitors.

Even though the longdrive guys use them, they offer the same great performance to those of us with more down to earth swingspeeds. They've got several models, the DCT (3 of the 4 Champions used this one), the Failsafe III, and the LB130, nicknamed "Little Bastard". The LB130 is basically the DCT with a super hot clubface and hot rodded paint job (color matches the Aldila DVS and Voodoo perfectly) available in 9, 10.5, and 12 deg lofts. The "LB" can't be used for USGA events or USGA handicapping but it can be used to really tick off your friends as you blow your drives by them.

Please keep the Swedish Longdrive Team from my doorstep and check out the Geek clubheads at the link below. Happy to sell as a component or assembled with your favorite shaft. Send me a note for a quote.

Here's some information on the Project X graphite: features a unique tapered design that maximizes a player's distance through the precise integration of frequency, weight distribution and launch profiles. The new shaft combines a stable butt section with a constant taper bend profile and reinforces the tip with two additional wraps of super high modulus graphite in the lower third of the golf shaft. The result is a reduction of spin by up to 500 RPM more than other low-spin Tour model competitors.

The Project X graphite shafts are available in woods and hybrids. I've got the ProjectX in my hybrid and it's excellent. Very stable but still a smooth feel. Most of the wood models are for heavy hitters (6.0, 65. and 7.0 flex) but I can also get 5.0 and 5.5 flexes, email me for information on the softer profiles.

I've updated my Alpha pages with most of their wood and fairway line and I can also get their irons as components. Happy to build a driver, fairway, hybrid, iron, or wedge set for you, send me a note and let me know what you're looking for.

The RIP has been available to Tour pros and they've responded with Tour victories around the globe. Aldila tells me, "RIP is Aldila's new shaft technology that provides a lower torque, increased tip stability and better tip stiffness control"

There's a picture of the shaft at the link below and you can see the beautiful RIP staff bag that a lucky Clubmaker Report reader won earlier this spring.

If you're looking to upgrade the shaft in your hybrid, you might consider the Aldila Voodoo (link below). Same S-Core technology as in the wood shaft that, according to Aldila VP of Engineering, John Oldenburg, " resists shaft ovaling and deformation during the swing, which maximizes energy transfer to the ball and yields unparalleled distance and accuracy."
