I bought the 10.5 on closeout for very cheap and used an SK Fiber Tour Trac 80. I wanted a shorter (44") heavier driver with less loft than I had been hitting. This club delivers. I don't care for the sound, which is a VERY muted thwack. Not objectionable, just strange. But it sets up very nicely and feels solid. I've gained a decent amount of distance due to the lower loft, so I'm happy. It seems pretty forgiving, but does have a slight left tendency. I would have liked a little more weight than the 198.5 it came as, but it was listed at 198 so that is good quality control, and I was able to add enough weight with a 9 gram tip pin to barely get the desired swingweight.

This driver head is great, it's long and accurate!! it might sound a little mute but it does give good feedback. Might be a closeout head but i think Jeff should look at just making some update on this model rather than eliminate it. since hireko has taken over dynacraft the product is better. i out a cadence pro 65 r flex shaft also a closeout for not much money i will put it up against anything!!
I put the comp inversion, 10.5 on a graffalloy prolaunch blue 65. I was hitting the prophet comp. This is a lot better. The ball comes off the clubhead so sweet and If I really nail it, the results are awesome. I would surely recommend to anyone
The Muffled sound the driver makes will trick you into believing you have not hit it very far. I coupled this head with the EI 70 stiff shaft for an average of 285 off the tee. I have the 10.5 loft. It has pushed my Prophet Draw biased 10 degree into the closet for the rest of the season.
PURCHASED THE DRIVER,3WD,5WD SO I COULD TEST THE MCS 70GRAM HIGH BEND POINT TIP STIFF SHAFTS. TURNS OUT TO BE A GREAT COMBO FOR MY SWING, GREAT DISTANCE AND VERY WORKABLE. MATCH THE RIGHT SHAFT WITH THIS HEAD AN YOU'LL BE MORE THAN HAPPY.
bought this club as a special with an NVS shaft. No doubt the "poorest" club shaft combo I've ever hit. Terrible feedback and a significant loss of distance compared to my "Golfsmith" driver. So bad that I am thinking there is something wrong with the head. Gives me pause on other Heriko components.
I assembled this club to try out with an Aggressive Frenzy 60 shaft I had bought. I had previously played a Dynacraft Prophet draw-biased driver with a Accuflex VS339 and have been liking the idea of the composite crowned driver more and more. However, I feel the Prophet at 10 degrees had too high a trajectory for me. So, when I saw this club with a 9.1 degree offering, I was excited. Anyway, the Frenzy plays with a little more torque and a slightly lower kick point than the VS339, but the trajectory coming off this club has been great for me. I'm now hitting some drives with a lot of carry, high and flat
