So,
here are the results from WITTER vs. WALKER IV
45 degrees,
light rain, 5 to 15 mile per hour wind right into our face.
We measured
out the grid and put a line at 308, which seemed like it
would be the limit on this day with conditions like they
were.
Day
begins with WITTER having the advantage over WALKER with
WALKER using the Nirvana / Penley combination and WITTER
using the Zeider / Harrison combo. Advantage to Witter by
10+ yards after approx. 250 balls each. (WITTER able to
control ball flight & spin more which is clearly evident
by watching ball flight)
Break
for lunch and go to my house where I made 2 clubs for Greg
to use for the afternoon session.
Club
#1: 4 degree Zeider head with 61 inch Harrison 2.5 Extra
untrimmed.
Club
#2: 8 degree Nirvana head with 61 inch Harrison 2.5
Extra tip trimmed 4.5 inches. I also bored out the head
and put the shaft in with approx. 2 degree forward
progression to take some of the loft out of the head, so
it's 55.5 inches at approx. 6 degrees.
Afternoon
session... conditions worsen, cooler, more rain, and more
wind.
WALKER,
now hitting the Harrison / Zeider combo hits the longest
ball of the day by 30+ yards. He also hits the Harrison
/ Nirvana combo almost the same distance.
In the
afternoon competition, both of us hit 20 balls each and
gave it our all... I hit some shots as good as I could hit
them that were good enough to beat him by 15 yards in the
morning (Penley shafted) session. WALKER, now hitting the
Harrison / Zeider combo wins this shootout by an extremely
convincing 8 yard margin!!!
He hit
about 50 more balls with both the Penley / Nirvana combo
and the Harrison / Zeider and Harrison / Nirvana combo,
and there was still an overwhelmingly convincing margin
in favor of the Harrison shaft in both the Zeider &
Nirvana head. (The Zeider head had a slight advantage over
the Nirvana)
CONCLUSION
#1: If I hit the Harrison / Zeider combo, there is NOTHING
WALKER can hit with the Penley / Nirvana combo that he can
keep within 10+ yards of me.
With the Harrison / Zeider combo, WALKER is virtually untouchable!!!
(This translates into a lot of work in the GYM for WITTER
over the next several months, unless Walker keeps hitting
the Penley shaft.)
CONCLUSION
#2: If WALKER does not call you and explain the results
to you and IMMEDIATELY switch to HARRISON... he is either
STUPID or STUBBORN... either way, if he continues to hit
with anything other than what he hit with today, he's never
going to hit his longest ball, as his longest combination
has just been found and it's clearly the Harrison / Zeider.
Anyway,
thank you very much for your support and believe me, after
what I witnessed today, I've become an even more die hard
Harrison / Zeider supporter.
Talk to you soon.
