Alpha Version 2, 3/5-woods, Aldila NV 75R Golf Fairway Woods - Reviews

On 2005-05-20, RDP -- Cincinnati rated this Alpha Version 2, 3/5-woods, Aldila NV 75R a 5...(5530)



Purchase: I’ve been away from the game for a while and read up a lot on equipment. I read about Alpha in Golf Digest—2005 Equipment “Hot List” and when I saw the pictures at Alpha's web site I was sold. I bought 3-wood and 5-wood with the Aldila NV 75 shaft, spine aligned, with Alpha Whisper grips for $167 each on Ebay at Dolwin Golf.
Pros: As good as this club looks in Alpha’s photos, it looks even better in your hands. All of the hoopla is about the Alpha driver on the long-driving circuit. Well, the fairway woods are the best I’ve ever hit, and can be had with these custom shafts for a great price. The consistency with which I’m hitting the 19-degree 5-wood takes both the 2-iron and 3-iron out of my bag.
Cons: I would like to have been about to try and buy these clubs locally but there are no places that stock demo clubs. I also wish the Alpha FW's would have been reviewed here. (Hope this one review helps the next guy.)
Quality: Their low center of gravity gives you great feel and the ball leaves the face with a nice pop! I had mine spine aligned and the head is installed square. My speed is less than 90 and the regular flex gives me a nice kick, but no balloons because of the low-mid launch of this shaft. I'm not a club builder but this club appears to be flawlessly constructed and assembled.

Review Summary: Looking for something different, that will out-perform the mass production brands? Give Alpha a try. I think you'll be pleased. I bought the a driver, 3-wood and 5-wood, without ever touching one, and I could not be more pleased with these clubs.
