With all of the hype around the Krank Formula 6, we thought we would put it to the test against some of our best drivers we have worked with in 2015. All of the driver heads we tested were playing to identical flexes, shaft weights, swing weights and lengths, which were the specs designated for our tester. The shaft used was an ACCRA Dymatch MT 60 M4 at 45 inches. The ball used was a TaylorMade Tour Preferred X. The heads tested were all 10.5 degree heads with settings, if available, in neutral and standard loft. The drivers we tested were the Callaway XR, TaylorMade Aeroburner, Krank 6, and Ping G30 LS TEC. I definitely like the new sound and feel of the Krank Formula 6…a vast improvement over the 5. The shape is quite different from the other drivers tested as you can see by the picture at the left. The Krank 6 is thrid from the left and has a higher face height but is narrower from heel to toe. I think this is where the increased spin came from in our testing as shots slightly off center (heel and low) caused higher spin rates. The Krank 6 had the best smash factor overall, but was a little less consistent. The winner both in terms of shot dispersion and distance was the Ping G30 LS TEC. No wonder the G30 is the hottest driver in the market this year. I think the Krank 6 has a great place for lower handicap golfers that can hit the ball very consistently with very little heel/toe miss-hits. For those golfers that miss more heel to toe and less up and down the club face I would go with one of the other heads tested.

We are intrigued every year by the Golf Digest Equipment Hot List and which drivers win the Gold Medals. Then, various forums, and ourselves as well publish a list of the best drivers. Some are very independent and some are not. Doesn't matter. What our customers are looking for is what are the best driver and shaft combinations that we have fit so far in 2019. We believe that the shaft is the part of the club that has the most impact on distance, consistency and accuracy, so that is why we are including our shaft recommendations in this list.

We like the categories as used by GolfWRX in their recent article but we think there are more in the mix for slower swing speeds. We will also throw in our Honorable Mentions in both heads and shafts. So here goes:

Swing Speed 106+, Distance > 250 yards

Fitting Tips: Typically 75 gram shafts but smoother tempos can play lighter weights. Firm mid section and low launch, low spin is the norm for more control. Driver lofts 8 to 10.5 degrees depending upon angle of attack.

Best Heads:Callaway EPIC Flash SubZero, TaylorMade M5 and M5 Tour, Ping G410 LST, Titleist TS3, Cobra F9 Speedback, PXG 0811X Gen 2

Best Shafts - Low Launch: Mitsubishi Diamana DF 60 and 70, Mitsubishi TENSEI White, ACCRA TZ 5 65, OBAN Kiyoshi Black, Project X HZRDUS EvenFLow White T1100, HZRDUS Smoke Green, Fujikura Ventus 6 and 7, LA Golf Black Tie 7

Best Shafts - Mid Launch: Mitsubishi Diamana BF 60, ACCRA TZ 6 65, Project X HZRDUS Smoke Black, Project X EvenFlow Black 65 and 75, Graphite Design Tour AD TP and IZ

Microsoft keyboards for mac. Honorable Mention Heads:Mizuno ST-190 9.5, Srixon 785, Krank Golf Formula X Extreme

Swing Speed 95-105, Distance 211 - 250 yards

Fitting Tips: Typical shaft weights in 65 grams but some players with fast transitions may like a heavier shaft. If you think you are losing distance try a lighter, 55 gram shaft but make sure it plays stiff enough. Typically 9 to 10.5 degree lofted drivers with face bias dependent upon swing characteristics and what appeals to the golfer.

Best Heads:Callaway EPIC Flash and SubZero, TaylorMade M6, Ping G410 LST and Plus, Titleist TS2 and TS3, Cobra F9 Speedback, PXG 0811X 2nd Gen

Best Shafts - Low-Mid Launch: Mitsubishi Diamana DF 60 and 70, Fujikura Ventus 6 and 7, Mitsubishi TENSEI White and Orange, ACCRA TZ 5 65, OBAN Kiyoshi White and Devotion 6, 7, Project X HZRDUS EvenFLow White T1100

Best Shafts - Mid Launch: Mitsubishi Diamana BF 60, ACCRA TZ 6 65, OBAN Revenge, Project X HZRDUS Smoke Black, Project X EvenFlow Black 65 and 75, Graphite Design Tour AD DI, TP and VR

Honorable Mention Heads:Mizuno ST-190 9.5, Srixon 785, Krank Golf Formula X Extreme

Swing Speed 80 - 94, Distance 175 - 210 yards

Fitting Tips: Lighter shafts (55 to 65 grams) but launch and spin depend on swing characteristics and attack angle. Slightly higher lofted drivers but not necessarily draw biased as there are a lot of better golfers with low handicaps in this category.
