I have this driver replaced my old Taylor Made Burner hit it straighter but it tends to not hit as quiet as far. I tried the BOMBTECH Grenade 3.0 driver also and even though I hit the Grenade further the Vertical Groove seems to be more forgiving
Hey Al, I stumbled across something very unusual on Ebay and I thought of Out of Bounds. It is the Wilson Envex driver and 3wood. Nothing else is even remotely similar. It looks like a flying saucer cut in half with a face and a shaft attached. Added to that the face from the pictures seemed flat without any roll and bulge. Their were some on both the U.S. and U.K. sites. Check them out. Quite a surprise if you haven't seen them before. John Daily won the British Open with this driver in his bag.
I remember seeing this driver when it came out with their infomercials. Glad you had a chance to review this club but I think the shaft was a bit too much flex for you. New challenge, put an xtra stiff flex in it to match your swing and try again.
From a numbers standpoint it's actually quite impressive aside from spin rate. To compete with the M5 in ball speed is no joke. I imagine a player who could use a bit more spin might really enjoy it. I also wonder whether the increased spin rate isn't the reason it goes "straighter" for some players. Especially for folks who's miss is a hook (i.e. Kenny Perry), the increased spin on mishits probably does produce slightly tighter dispersion. If it didn't look so horrendous I'd be tempted to order one given the price.
Old man Burke wants to know when you'll next be driving a ball into his Backyard (joke for any Aussies still awake!) - he'll make some scones. Awesome review mate.
I bought one of these heads recently (cheap!) just to mess with and try. Too much loft and spin to game for me as well, but honestly a solid driver (in other words, way better than my very low expectations). You’ll get some looks from your playing partners for sure.
John and Kenny sound like a comedy team or a used car yard. Another gimmick club endorsed by John Daly, who'd guess. Love your work, cheers and regards from South Australia.
Really enjoy your content. I cant wait to see the TXG boys to accept your chALenge on the off the knee for distance. I am sure you have that one in the bag. Wishing you continued success.
The only way you could have made the "whose back garden will I enter today" comment worse is if yo had combined it with telling us about your after market extra stiff shaft!
Fair comparison? Tiger’s driver is for Tiger and not mere mortals. VGG? For some if you like that hideous color scheme and are desperate to hit it straight.
Interesting. Have you tried "bending" the ball around trees as in a deliberate draw/fade? Do those grooves help with that at least?
Matty at TXG hasn't taken up your ChALenge yet. I think he's scared of losing 😢

Loving your videos - my fave channel now!
Al when are we gonna see the GX7 metal???
i Have 1 of those
I really want to know what launch monitor you use in the studio ? Thanks
How are you not 500k subscribers? Keep going man, dude, golf crazy man, comedian etc, whatever you feel like. =)
Guess it’s because he only does one thing. Driver shots with a simulator

I think he out an after market X Flex Accra in it.
Welcome back. Been missing your vids
Al, have you ever tried any of the golf clubs from GolfWorks? You should do videos on them!
Wow I haven’t seen this thing in ages. Rick reviewed it years ago. I’m excited for your reactions
Would like to see you with a medicus driver in your hands. Could make a great video.
Maybe you should think of having a 18+ handicapper try this out to see if it helps
My addiction to this channel continues....

Keep up the great work

Wow! Surprising results!
Al I think you should do an opposite hand longest drive against Matty at TXG so you hit left hand and he hits right hand
We’re on it 😉👌
@@alexetchesgolf Matty for the win on this...he has previous form....

Ch-Al-lange, most backspin with a driver
I would give a kidney for a driver that was 40% straighter.
Maybe even 2 kidneys (ya'll didn't think I meant my own kidneys did ya?)
The Groove needed to have much better perimeter weighting and a thinner face. Face feels thick and heavy when the clubhead in general feels light
Groovy bro
Should do a 450 yrd challenge with alot of tail wind on the simulator
Yeah, as Alex pointed out this driver has been out for a couple years but the company that made it is no longer in business.
straight up the daftest concept going lol

6:15 "not comfortable with what I see down at the ball"
For driver, yes, but equally applicable to the other 13 bats in the bag.
you should try High Heat that would be fun, but please where ear plugs LOL
Who can picture Al throwing club heads at the ball?
You don’t need to picture, I have video evidence 😂😆
@@alexetchesgolf where abouts in UK you from? you sound like me, I'm from Worksop..I been livin oz for 5 yr now. Moving to Joondalup this yr.
aloo la verdad increible video me encanto deseo el proximo éxito los dejo les mando besitos gracias
Most drivers except for a very few do not have grooves in the center of the face.

Looking rather slim Al!!! How many deck chairs have you thrown off the Titanic so far???
I’ve seen other pros try this and it doesn’t do anything better than any other drivers
I own this driver and it's not the most forgiving, however its capable of some bombs.
“Good day curd nerds”
"As much as I'd love to blame the tools... it's me!"
SACRILEGE I SAY!
300+ yards dispersion smidgersion meh..just hit it! 👍👍
You mean it would be better to save your money for a lesson ... over the VGG?
So it should be called The Pointless Groove right?😂
Fair comparison? Tiger’s driver is for Tiger and not mere mortals. VGG? For some if you like that hideous color scheme and are desperate to hit it straight.
Bought it, tried it, hated it and sold it. One driving range visit and one round....... horrendous
I have tomatoes in my back garden 🍅 🌱 💩
Cool story bro
I would not, could not from a tee. I would not could not even for a three. I do not like green-vertical-stripes you see
Not a single Vertic-AL joke.
I missed this opportunity
Seem quality to me. I am sure your swing is not that good today Alex lol
Lol need to stay out of your neighbour's back garden
