PowerMax Slot Concept
Over 5 years ago, the Pursuit tc420 driver introduced the slot sole to the titanium driver market. The driving force behind the engineering was the idea that casting a deep groove into the sole would provide a mechanism that acts like a loaded hinge and propels the ball off the face at a greater velocity. At that time, several equipment manufacturers were adding a channel to the crown. Our experience told us that most golfers miss the sweet spot toward the sole of the club. Putting the slot on the sole seemed logical. The idea worked so well that the tc420 exceeds the USGA’s COR limits.
Slot Sole Hybrids
We mark 2013 with the slot sole rolling out to the fairway wood and hybrid lines. The exciting thing about the slot sole mechanism is that it does not require a huge force to activate. In other words, the player does not need to possess a 115 mph swing speed to benefit from the design. Golfers of all ability levels will gain yards with smoother easier swings. USGA regulations are met but not exceeded as the slot sole fairway woods and hybrids conform to the USGA’s existing testing methods (but barely).
Internal Weight Pad
Just behind the slot there is an internal weight that balances the head with a low center of gravity. Placing the discretionary weight behind the slot and close to the face is another feature that maximizes ball velocity. The added mass helps to compress the slot creating an explosive rebound that sends the ball farther with less effort than any fairway wood we have manufactured to date.
Good Looks
The TRX version of the slot sole is dressed in TRX colors. Black, white with red accents create a striking combination. The black PVD body is chemically treated for durability. The white crown helps some players get better alignment.
Shaft Options
The HDX 80 shaft is a good choice shaft for the TRX Power Slot hybrids. Manufactured by UST specifically for us, the HDX has a bend profile and playing characteristics that are similar to the stock shafts in drivers and fairway woods marketed by the larger club manufacturers. In fact, UST makes shafts for many of the industry’s most popular brands. The HDX fits the swings of a wide variety of golfers. It’s stiff tip offers control while the mid bend-point make it easy to generate the correct launch angle necessary to maximize distance and accuracy.
