PM'ed you mate. Cheers

That's a lovely, lovely, lovely profile, just about everything pleasing about it. I love the no concaving + longer sweet spot on it. Looks likes Ginger's wish came true with GBP 175. Wish I could buy this one :(.
-
Fairly similar profile to the GM Flare Players Edition. Nowhere near as expensive though.
-
What position is the sweet spot on this? Mid-high?
-
It's an extended mid sweet spot, meaning that you still get a decent coverage in the more "traditional" area, but at the same time benefitting from a better pick up/feel.

I just compared my Flare, from my amateur perspective they look similar.

If it's anything like mine then it starts 4 inches from the toe

Compared to dead weight how does yours pick up.
-
I have tried one of these shapes and I can confirm I used one 2oz heavier than I normally use and if felt like my normal weight very impressive profile

Is that the one you had at the net Dave? The pick up on that was really light, nice oval handle too
-
Yes mate it was very very nice profile it was 2-10 but picked up so well

Pick up is definitely lighter than its dead weight.

I agree it definitely felt nice, thought it was much lighter than 2'10! :o
