I have one in an R7 and I love it. It got my launch angle back to 14 degrees, which for me is optimal. A lot of golfers can get more distance by increasing launch angle. But don't do it if you play against me...I still want to win!
Nice call on the Prolaunch! I went to a fitter to have thing's checked and swing speed avg was at 97. He had me hit my 9.5 and then threw me into a 10.5 and bam there's another 17 yrds for avg. The 10.5 got me in the mid 13's for launch angle.

He built me a KZG Gemini 10.5 with Prolaunch stiff. Got to play with it on league last night and I hit a few farther on a couple holes deeper then I've ever been before.
