Dunlop Golf
If you were to trace Dunlop Golf’s roots to the previous century, then you’d understand how Dunlop Golf easily becomes one of golf’s most undying brands. That is because Dunlop Golf had worked flawlessly off the limelight, producing and supplying quality golf products over the century without the usual sticker shock of high end products. Dunlop golf is really one brand that understands golf products need not be feature loaded and expensive to deliver competitively on the green.
Take a close peep on these Dunlop Golf equipments and see what I mean.
The Dunlop LoCo Golf Driver
This driver is a fine example of a fine golf driver without a hint of sticker shock. Anyone who’d seen the Dunlop LoCo golf driver will know that this 450cc club head driver can deliver those long drives as much as any swatters like the Nike SasQuatch 460cc and the Bertha.
The sweet spot (the primary area where the fullest hits are made) is very large, but not as large as the SasQuatch. This is a nifty feature for high handicap players; in fact, I believe Dunlop Golf made this LoCo baby with the newbies in mind. Most of Dunlop LoCo’s features aren’t helpful to those that might seek more customizations to their club (as most advanced golfer would) but can be a handy feature for those just learning how to swat. Its face is already adjusted to at least several angles that would help those whose strokes are usually fades or slices. Furthermore, since the shafts have titanium-reinforcements to prevent the massive club head from twisting or turning the shaft, the Dunlop LoCo golf driver becomes more forgiving.
Did I already mention this Dunlop LoCo golf driver delivers without a hint of sticker shock? It costs $150, compare it to Nike SasQuatch 460cc at $500.
So what are the cons of having this baby? As mentioned, it has lesser customizable feature than say, the Nike Ignite T60, heavy club head (though only natural since its 450cc) and the shaft color since its bright yellow gets distracting sometimes. So do you get it? Of course, though this club serves best for novice players that don’t do much customizing on their clubs. Its still a premium golf component by the way, and it could be used on serious rounds.
The Dunlop Golf Ball 65u
Do you know that the Titleist Pro V1 is already overrated these days? For its price tag, yes it really is. There are other winning combinations for golf balls now, and the Titleist Pro V1 is only among of them.
One of them is the Dunlop Golf Ball 65u. The same construct albeit a bit different in several technicalities. It’s a multilayered ball for instance, and for a urethane ball, it’s surprisingly cheap; at $24.95 its way cheap than the $58 price tag of the Pro V1.
Dunlop Golf’s patented technology, the “Moebius” dimples are the answers with regards to maximum distance. These dimples are non-circular which, as Dunlop Golf claims, helps more with regards to accuracy. That’s by aerodynamically reducing the spin created on drives off the tee. So that makes Dunlop Golf Ball 65u a novice friendly ball, by reducing slice and fades so habitual to novice swings.
It has a good distance performance, having a finished compression of 90. It has a bit firmer urethane cover for more distance conversion, but the same urethane technology to grip and spin more on the green. Not to soft not too hard. In fact, it has better feel than the newest Pro V1 design.
