The clubhead on this driver is a very large and forgiving 460cc.
You will get plenty of forgiveness and distance from the clubhead and all of its components.
The shaft on the steel driver is going to be a little shorter than one on a traditional graphite driver.
This is a good thing and something golfers should understand is done for their benefit.
