I've been playing this club since December 2022 and it is super fun to play with. It is not a gimmick. It's a very playable club that (once you get used to it...) you can play quality shots with. In fact, the middle settings (5-9) have replaced the old Pings I've played with for years. The most surprising setting was the putter ('P'). You may have to adjust your technique a bit since it's 5* but you might be shocked by the results you get on the greens.
@ndragon88

My only question would be how long does it hold up for because you're hitting anywhere from 65-120 shots per round with the same club essentially so I would assume it would need to replaced a whole lot more often

@@ndragon88 Really good question. From my own personal experience...I've played with the club for over 10 months now and have hit thousands of shots (both practice and play) with the club using nearly all of the 11 different settings and have had no problems whatsoever. I cannot speak for the designers of the club but my understanding (from reading some of their posts many months ago...) is that the spring mechanism used can tolerate billions of settings ("clicks") before wearing out. Obviously, the grip will wear out much sooner than a conventional grip because of the multi-purpose manner in which the club is used. Hopefully, the Q Golf people will see this post and chime in on this question.

Currently illegal for comp play, but fascinating - and yes, what a great club for beginners. (Suggestion - get the R&A to change the rule to "14 clubs including multiple adjustment settings. Changing setting must not unduly delay play") It's also squarely in the "single length set" camp, which is also pretty unusual. How does it feel, compared to a normal club - more hybrid than iron? (And Ping have just brought out a set that is basically all hybrids too).

Otherwise NAH! Putter: The putter is just 5° and way too hard!!!

I have this club. With a regular flex shaft and extra weight of the head it's prone to the righties, especially off the tee. You can and should also change where you grip the club. There's 3 different areas on the grip so you can play reasonably close to a regular club of whatever loft. Putting, I find playing slightly back with forward lean helps clear the longer shaft from my body. I'm experimenting with using the arm-lock seeing as it is a longer shaft. Off the tee there's also a 'stinger' setting, which is halfway between the putter and hybrid= 11 degrees. Fun times!

I've communicated with the inventor and they are aware of the right bias the club has (a cut/fade/slice swing does not work very well with this club) and they are working on "adjustments" to the design (offset blade and more weight towards the heel, etc) that will make it more playable for folks that do not have a draw type swing. The price point for the club will be reduced as well by 25% as of 1/1/2024.
