These have always been good heads. Have used a few of them in different lofts.
I am over 70, handicap +/- 10. Needed a lower loft driver, but money is an issue. So, I built one with the 8.5 degree head I bought (for AMAZINGLY CHEAP) from Monarch, and had a senior shaft put on it. So now I am usually within a high loft iron of the greens on 4s and 5s instead of a mid-iron. Exactly what I hoped for! I will be building a 3-wood and a 5-wood the same way. Totally sold on Monarch.
Built this for a customer who has a high swing speed and he loves it, he almost drove the green on a par 4, gps measurement had it at 310 yards! For the price and performance I have no complaints.
A beautiful club head. Well made. I’m very satisfied.
Very pleased with the feel and sound of the clubhead and I am getting 10-15 yards more distance.
