Deep metallic blue 460cc titanium head with new thinner clubhead crown. Thin Crown Technology allows 15% of the head weight to be moved lower and deeper for better launch conditions. The beta titanium face is plasma-welded to provide a huge sweetspot for maximum forgiveness. The head has a very high moment of inertia for improved distance and direction on off-centre hits.

In July 2023, Neil became just the 9th editor in Golf Monthly's 112-year history. Originally working with the best coaches in the UK to produce instruction content, he went on to become a feature writer interviewing many of the biggest names in the game including Tiger Woods, Seve Ballesteros, Rory McIlroy and Arnold Palmer.

A 5-handicap golfer, Neil is a club member who takes a keen interest in the health of the game at grassroots level. You’ll often now find him writing about club-related issues such as WHS, membership retention and how best to bridge the gap between the range and the course.
