FT-i Tour LCG

So I was swinging the new FT- i Tour LCG last night.

These were the specs...8.5 Neutral w/Ozik XCon-6 X-Flex.

At first I was thinking to myself that this was going to feel like the previous FT-i and I was going to hate it. Much to my surprise, the head and shaft combo was mental. I was crushing it down the pipe with optimal launch and spin rate. The Ozik shaft probably makes all the difference, but I noticed the head doesn't sound as bad at impact this year.

Definitely something to consider if anyone is in the market for a square driver.

I'm debating between this and the G-10.

I just went to a golf town opening and they talked me into a fitting. Tried all tm new stuff, cally ft-5 ft-i, nike sumo, cobra l4v, ping g10.
Keep in mind straightness was not my main concern, I am always straight, but somewhat short.
Every driver was within 3 yards of each other. the only one that stood out was the g10 as first hit was 21 yards further than all others. The next hit 24. Went back to next best, for me the tm r7460 and same as before and all others.
Back to g10 and 25 yards further.
It was with an optional shaft called the V2hl Which was odd as most drivers were too high spinning for me, yet the high launch shaft with ping gave best results.

ps the straightest though was fti and the cobra l4v. The cobra could be hit inside to out swing, put your worst swing on and it ended up in middle, but distance was not there.

You tried the FT-i Tour LCG or just the normal one?

Where did you find an LCG? We have none in the eastern Golf Towns.

I hit it first when the Callaway rep was in, and there's one in stock in South Edmonton. I was lucky to catch the Callaway rep though since I only do a shift there once in a while.
