Dynacraft Prophet Titanium Driver - Clubhead:18 GRAMS OF DISCRETIONARY WEIGHT SHIFTED WITHIN THE BODY TO MAKE TWO COMPLETELY DIFFERENT DRIVERS Maximum volume under USGA rules (460cc), this deep face driver does not appear overly large at address as the club is not too broad from face to back. Normally this combination would create a driver with a center of gravity that is high and close to the face, which would create a less than ideal lower launch condition. The Prophet driver solves this problem by utilizing a lightweight, carbon crown. This allows significant weight savings to be strategically located within the head to improve both increased launch angles and decreased spin rates versus an all-titanium head of the same size and shape. NEUTRAL & DRAW BIAS FITS TWO DIFFERENT TYPES OF GOLFERS The Prophet Draw Biased model has more weight shifted toward the heel than the Neutral model. This creates a center of gravity that is 3.3mm closer to the hosel (which is significant!) to assist those golfers who fade a slice the ball to straighten out their shots. The weight shift toward the heel creates a greater angle of center of gravity, or simply a head that will naturally rotate closed. Plus center shots will produce some draw spin as a result the gear effect and the shift of the center of gravity toward the heel. Both the Prophet Neutral and Draw Biased models are available in multiple lofts in order custom fit the vast majority of golfers into the optimum trajectory and directional path.

Worth the money
By StudleyVerified Purchaser from Fort Worth, TX on 2/4/2010
Pros:
Great Distance, Great Feel, Large Sweet Spot
Cons:
Poor Construction
Best Uses:
Off The Tee
Describe Yourself:
Golf Enthusiast
Handicap:
8
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

The head has a good feel to it and really gets down the fairway. It is long. The only concern I have is with the construction. I read another reviewer that said he cracked 2 heads. Well, I cracked 1 after 2 months use. I'm on my second head and so far it has held up. I haven't played that many rounds with it yet. The 12 degree is a little more than I would like. I would prefer a 10.5, but it still gets the ball on down there.
It's worth the cost.

 
"Jury still out"
By StudleyVerified Purchaser from Fort Worth, Tx on 1/15/2010
Pros:
Accurate, Great Distance, Great Feel, Large Head, Large Sweet Spot
Cons:
Poor Construction
Best Uses:
Off The Tee, Replacement, Upgrade
Describe Yourself:
Golf Enthusiast
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

There is not a driver on the market that will go any further than this one. It is extremely long.But the jury is still out on the construction. This is my second one to purchase. The first one developed a crack after only 2 months of use. The crack was on top where the composite head meets the metal face . I didn't bother to ask for a replacement since I just paid[$]. I thought I would try one more and see how it holds up. I'm still using the first one with the crack and can't tell any difference in performance. But the fact that it is cracked bothers me. When the next one arrives I will see how it holds up.

 
Good bang for the buck
By studleyVerified Purchaser from Fort Worth, Tx on 11/4/2009
Pros:
Accurate, Great Distance, Great Feel, Large Head, Large Sweet Spot
Best Uses:

Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

When I ordered the club I wasn't aware that all they had were 12 deg. heads. I normally use a 9 or 9 1/2 deg. But I kept it and I must say I can't tell a whole lot of difference in the two.
I am pleased with the distance. I was using a Mizuno driver and I believe this one is a little longer. Off center hits will still get you down the fairway. I really like the club. Well worth the money.

 
Good drives, poor construction
By JackVerified Purchaser from Dallas on 4/1/2009
Pros:
Accurate, Great Distance, Great Feel
Cons:
Poor Construction

Bottom Line:

Great driving with this club. A friend made one for me after watching me use a 3-wood off the tee for three years. I LOVE IT! Straight, long, consistent.

Paired with a Proforce 65 shaft. I made a second one for my travel bag.

However, I cracked TWO heads in less than one year of play (perhaps 75 total rounds between the two heads). Hireko was great about replacements, but I'm getting tired of on-course equipment failure.

 
Better than Cheating!
By Charles Carlton - CC Systems GolfVerified Purchaser from Newport News, Va. on 3/5/2009
Pros:
Accurate, Durable, Forgiving, Great Feel, Large Head, Large Sweet Spot
Best Uses:
Long Holes, Narrow Fairways, Off The Tee, Upgrade

Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Improve your game, buy this head. Purchased the 12 degree nuetral head and shafted it with a Cadence Pro 65 shaft/Stiff Flex/45" length, nice tight 4 yard draw seems it's typical ball fight, excellent distance and great feel.

 
Solid driver
By DaveTVerified Purchaser from Ocean, NJ on 1/10/2009
Pros:
Accurate, Forgiving, Great looking, Large Head
Best Uses:
Off The Tee
Describe Yourself:
Golf Enthusiast
Handicap:
14
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I wanted a driver for my travel set. (The set I ship to where I am going by plane, or trust to the airlines.) The set should be the same specs as my regular clubs, but probably not as expensive.

I made up the Prophet driver to the same length, swingweight, and frequency as my everyday driver. The lofts are the same at 12*. I used a Grafalloy Prototype NT R-flex shaft. (I have a different Grafalloy shaft on my everyday driver.)

It hits the ball very similarly to my everyday driver. Perhaps not quite as far, but straighter. (That's probably a good trade for my travel set, since I'm going to be playing courses I'm not as familiar with.) And it looks GREAT; Dynacraft has done a great job with the composite body.

Bottom line: A very solid clubhead, keeps the ball in the fairway, and plenty long enough.

 
This thing is long
By CbeyVerified Purchaser from St. Louis, MO on 10/15/2008
Pros:
Accurate, Durable, Great Feel, Large Sweet Spot
Best Uses:
Long Holes, Off The Tee
Describe Yourself:
Golf Enthusiast
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

This driver is the best I have ever played. I have the 10d that I put in a Snake Eyes Graffalloy NZ-6 stiff shaft. The combination is just perfect. I can hit this thing dead straight or hit a mean power fade with no problem. I have always been pretty good off the tee. But, this driver has me 15-20 yards longer. Either the courses I'm playing are mis-marked, or I crank this thing 275 on mis-hits. For the price or any price, you are not going to find a better club.

DYNACRAFT PROFIT DRIVER=FEEL & ACCURACY
By RA-AVID GOLFERVerified Purchaser from LIVONIA, MICHIGAN on 11/2/2007
Pros:
Accurate, Great Feel, Large Head, Large Sweet Spot
Best Uses:
Long Holes, Off The Tee, Replacement
Describe Yourself:
Golf Enthusiast
Handicap:
11
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

THIS HEAD FEELS VERY SOLID AT IMPACT AND ITS SWEET SPOT IS LARGE ENOUGH TO KEEP YOU IN THE "SHORT GRASS". I ASSEMBLED MY 12 DEGREE PROFIT DRIVER HEAD WITH A CADENCE 65 SHAFT (REG FLEX) AND IT GIVES ME ABOUT 225 TO 235 YARDS OFF THE TEE. MY SWING SPEED FALLS INTO THE 90-94 MPH RANGE-NOT BAD WHEN I CONSIDER MY BACK HAS SOME ISSUES. I THINK MANY WILL FIND THE CADENCE SHAFT A VERY GOOD COMBO FOR THE PROFIT AND SINCE THE SHAFT HAS A VERY REASONABLE PRICE, YOUR WALLET WON'T SUFFER, EITHER. THE HEAD HAS A VERY ATTRACTIVE BLACK PAINT COUPLED WITH A BRUSHED, FLANGE-LIKE INSERT THAT PROTECTS THE HEAD FROM THOSE OCCASIONAL POP UPS THAT OFTEN BLISTER THE PAINT. SUMMARY: I THINK YOU WILL LIKE THE PERFORMANCE OF THESE PRODUCTS AND THE COST IS SURELY REASONABLE.

 
Fantastic club head
By TwigVerified Purchaser from Decatur, Illinois on 9/27/2007
Pros:
Accurate, Great Feel, Large Head
Describe Yourself:
Golf Enthusiast
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Received this head(10 degree) and mounted on a Graffloy pro launch blue stiff shaft which is made for large driver heads. Gained 20+ yards off the tee. Off center hits carried almost as far as sweet spot hits. Love it.

 
Outperforms the proline clubs
By ChuckVerified Purchaser from Peachtree City, GA on 8/7/2007
Pros:
Accurate, Great Feel, Hot sweet spot, Large Head
Best Uses:
Off The Tee
Describe Yourself:
Golf Enthusiast, Senior golfer
Handicap:
12
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I have tried the Callaway FT-3 and FT-5, plus the Adam Comp/Ti drivers and found that this Prophet head, (10 deg) on a Graffaloy ProLaunch Blue 65, regular shaft outperforms them as far as distance, trajectory and accuracy are concerned. The flight is a little higher than I would prefer, a 9.5 deg would be about right, but otherwise this is a Great driver.

 
better than the fusion
By da bearVerified Purchaser from Camarillo, CA on 7/22/2007
Pros:
Accurate, Great Feel, Large Head, Large Sweet Spot
Best Uses:
Long Holes, Off The Tee, Upgrade
Describe Yourself:

Handicap:

Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I also built this with the grafalloy red shaft in order to keep the trajectory down. I normaly play a 9.0 or 9.5 and the prophet came with a 10.5 loft. I routinely hit between 275-300 or more with this combo, my occasional slice is extremely rare and I sometimes see a nice draw to my shots but usually tend to pipre them right down the middle. I have tested all of the newest name brands on the market and have found none better even though they normally cost 3-4 times as much.

 
Great club, until it broke.
By SteveOVerified Purchaser from Las Vegas, NV on 6/6/2007
Pros:
Accurate, Great Feel
Best Uses:
Off The Tee
Describe Yourself:
Golf Enthusiast
Handicap:
12
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I assembled 10 degree draw biased model with a VS339 stiff. Very solid feeling and very straight. However, I did hit this a bit higher than I would like. I wish they had a lower loft. This is one of the first drivers I've ever played extremely well with the first time out. Unfortunately, I headed out for my second round with it and the face cracked on the first swing. Of course, Hireko exchanged the head for a new one, but my local shop destroyed the shaft while pulling it. So, I have not rebuilt it as of yet.

Bottom line though, I had always had tremendous success with Dynacraft products, and would recommend them to anyone. Before this broke, it performed very well. I think in this case I just got a defect.

Excellent Quality & value
By Good ShotVerified Purchaser from sequim WA on 4/10/2007
Pros:
Accurate, Durable, Great Feel, Large Head, Large Sweet Spot
Best Uses:
Off The Tee
Describe Yourself:
Golf Enthusiast
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I built up the 10 degree neutral bias version w/ the new grafaloly pro launch red (stiff flex)for my 16 year old son who is on the local High School golf team. On his first drive on a 350 yard openning hole he had a 35 yard pitch shot to the green. needless to say he was really pleased with the results.He averaged about 270-280 all day long with the new club.Much better performance than his Ping G2 w/ pro launch blue shaft.Not much to complain about...nice sound and also GREAT FEEL for a ti/comp blend.really nice job Dynacraft!!!!!!

"I love this club!!"
By Diver DaveVerified Purchaser from Kennewick, Washington on 2/17/2007
Pros:
Accurate, Good Looking, Great Feel, Large Sweet Spot, Long
Best Uses:
Intermediate
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I've built this head up with an Accuflex VS 339 shaft and it's far and away the best hitting driver I've ever built or used. The club hits long and relatively straight (for me). It's forgiving on off center hits.
How I feel about this club can be summed up with a incident that happened a couple months ago. I was standing on the first tee with my usual group of guys. As I'm about to swing, I heard one of them say to another who hadn't played with us for awhile, "watch this". He was refering to how I've been hitting the ball since getting this drive. That was worth the price of the club.
I'm buying another just to have in case the line is discontinued.
