@ac130jf hey, i play the diablo forged irons w/ kbs shafts and I really can’t see myself playing anything else. once you get use to the extra distance (10-15 yds) you’ll begin to enjoy hearing the “click” sound from hitting it pure and sweet. these are by far the best irons i have ever hit. haven’t hit the driver or fairway woods yet, but the hybrids are as sweet as the irons. i play the iq imix driver and enjoy the forgiving benifits it offers.

i have a question. i take my golf very seriously and play almost every day,so im about to blow 1200 on a complete set of diablo irons,driver,fairways and hybrids and jawz cc wedges but im 13 and hit around 270 with my driver now(is that good for age). should i do it?
September 7th, 2011 at 7:14 pm
i agree, seriously a 9 WOOD? come one now, at 22 degrees you might as well just buy a hybrid instead
September 7th, 2011 at 7:29 pm
@JAAPJXBIT Good for you!
September 7th, 2011 at 7:50 pm
I am a golf newbie and i suck but i have never even made a complete round in a golf course, i bought these clubs after talking with lots of people and for what i hear they are great, i got the driver, 3 wood, 3-9 irons pw and sw and of course a putter. I am hoping ill become a good player some day and that these clubs will help me improve. Ill try to post a review on them about my experience and my improvements with them.
September 7th, 2011 at 8:23 pm
@rtwoodlands So i could get an account there is an age limit
September 7th, 2011 at 9:08 pm
@MrStamps10 but why did you say your 15? little fuck.
September 7th, 2011 at 9:23 pm
@dougiepoolable why are you on my profile? I just wanted an account so i coujld comment and rate golf clubs and other golf accessories for people to look at
September 7th, 2011 at 9:29 pm
@MrStamps10 Then why do you say you’re 15 on your profile? You’re talking shit
September 7th, 2011 at 9:34 pm
I am 12 years old and hit the 5 wood 210, the Driver 260, great set of clubs highly recommended!!
September 7th, 2011 at 9:54 pm
Just bought this bad boy!
September 7th, 2011 at 10:21 pm

September 7th, 2011 at 11:16 pm
Theses clubs are great they have improved my games and swing
September 7th, 2011 at 11:34 pm
I have the 2010 Diablo Edge Tour driver and i love it, check out my vid of me hitting it
September 7th, 2011 at 11:52 pm
@HypocrisyBeats
Saw a kid running around with a 36 degree 15 wood, which is like a bloody 7 iron! Kind of lol’ed at that tbh. (not of this club-tybe though)
September 8th, 2011 at 12:25 am
@GSCrepresentative i think that is how he hits it. An aeroplane like shot with a high draw from what i believe
September 8th, 2011 at 12:29 am
each time they showed michael campbell his shots looked as though they were very very low to the ground
September 8th, 2011 at 1:27 am
jesus a 9 wood w/ 25 degrees of loft … thats how much my 5 hybrid has … wtf
September 8th, 2011 at 2:19 am
Just got a Diablo 3 hybrid from golf galaxy, tried out Taylormade and it was hard to hit, and was SUPER SHANKING it also didnt go to far. Tried the Nike it went straight but couldnt get it farther than maybe 8 feet above the ground so it didnt go far. The Diablo is great, far, straight, light, and great feel.
September 8th, 2011 at 2:25 am
@HypocrisyBeats i agree
September 8th, 2011 at 3:20 am
@As3sinoL0C0 i have a 9 wood an i never use it but its good for people that have problems to hit the ball out of the rough so u can use it instead an iron from the rough
September 8th, 2011 at 4:11 am
@HypocrisyBeats These woods are so easy to hit it’s kind of ridiculous to have a 9 wood. I have the 3 wood at it’s easily my favorite club to use
September 8th, 2011 at 4:20 am
and once again.. it is built for speed…
September 8th, 2011 at 4:41 am
9 WOOD??? I feel like golf has become a campaign based around babying all the people who CAN’T play the game. 9 wood… WOW.
September 8th, 2011 at 5:24 am
@MackePacke Hahaha
September 8th, 2011 at 5:41 am
@poppypudhaphong Yeah, over 250 meters but not over 250,1
September 8th, 2011 at 6:02 am
I’d love to see that again but with my bugatti Id kill it
September 8th, 2011 at 6:20 am
It’s better to buy golf set cuz it’s much quicker
September 8th, 2011 at 6:31 am
@KimKwitter Hahaha! So, let summarize this. A golf ball is faster than a gallardo
September 8th, 2011 at 6:48 am
@poppypudhaphong I was totally going to buy a Gallardo, but I think I’m just going to settle with a golf ball instead after seeing this video.
September 8th, 2011 at 7:00 am
I’m really not sure what this was supposed to prove..
September 8th, 2011 at 7:04 am
@stevenaheuer well what do you expect? this is callaway golf’s youtube channel.
September 8th, 2011 at 7:16 am
what! he cant have hit it that far and straight!
September 8th, 2011 at 7:49 am
Now try the Aventador and see who wins
September 8th, 2011 at 8:10 am
@alovechkin814 have you ever heard of driving in UK? -.-
September 8th, 2011 at 8:47 am
why is the wheel on the wrong side… ? Lawlz
September 8th, 2011 at 8:48 am
it is a tie
September 8th, 2011 at 9:47 am
the lamborghini started first
September 8th, 2011 at 10:06 am
A golf ball can get to the speed of 300 kmh also a lamborghini
September 8th, 2011 at 10:08 am
@stevenaheuer you ain’t a golfer, are you?
September 8th, 2011 at 10:53 am
No! But because of the hardness of the golf ball makes it bounce further than the Lambo!
September 8th, 2011 at 11:26 am
this obviously didn’t happen in one take.
September 8th, 2011 at 11:54 am
@poppypudhaphong how a golf ball can be better than a lamborghiin!? are you crazy!?
September 8th, 2011 at 12:29 pm
THE LAMBORGHINI ALMOST WIN!!! BUT, YOU KNOW, GOLF BALL IS BETTER!!
September 8th, 2011 at 12:41 pm
would suck if he hooked it and went into the windshield of the lambo
September 8th, 2011 at 1:41 pm
THIS IS LAMBORGHINI
September 8th, 2011 at 1:54 pm
shut the hell up
September 8th, 2011 at 2:52 pm
i like how engineers of that era talk like engineers and not salesmen
September 8th, 2011 at 3:09 pm
@KrazyKuul111 Well, the viper is one of the best handling cars out there with a big engine and no electronic aids and no computer controlling it at all… Remember that the Viper ACR had the fastes time for a production car round the nurburgring for a long time. And the Corvette C4 handled really well along with contemporary prosches, mid ferraris and the countach. And a car that goes 254MPH HAS to handle well or it would be a death trap, so i don’t see straight lines anywhere.
September 8th, 2011 at 3:28 pm
@machone7I i’m sure if you did the same thing with a dodge viper, you could make it go 260-270. I think it would be a waste to build a car that only goes fast in a straight line though, no offense to drag racing people.
September 8th, 2011 at 3:32 pm
@LanceCampeau since I was 8… 35 now
September 8th, 2011 at 4:08 pm
@LanceCampeau 9 now 27
September 8th, 2011 at 4:14 pm
@LanceCampeau me too 20…I’m 43!!
September 8th, 2011 at 4:53 pm
1001 comments oh the irony
rate it up if you are sick and tired hearing about veyrons
September 8th, 2011 at 5:44 pm
i seen how they made this cars ( they made them in canada quebec and they design by Paul deutchman the guys who creat the T REX ) they remove everyting make the cars larger , beter brake , beter engine , beter transmission , this things is not a corvette its someting way beter .
September 8th, 2011 at 6:35 pm
LOL at the “youtube experts” that think, that a W16 is two V8s welded/bolted/glued together
Engine design isn’t like that 
It has a unique crank case, 8 cylinders on each side in two rows, so total 4 rows… So it’s not as long as V16, much shorter, similar to a V10. It has 1 crankshaft of course… And no, VW doesn’t need a W16 engine for 1000 HP. They wanted a unique engine design, that nobody else has, so that’s why a W16. Veyron is not only about speed, but standing out of the crpwd.
September 8th, 2011 at 6:38 pm
@1994Jearbear I think i already answered to that… I know. It was a fairly irrelevant mistake. Anyways, making a transmission for a W16 is much more difficult than for a V16. That means a lot of power is lost… And they are two normal Audi V 8s together… Wouldn’t pay over 1 million $ for a car made out of audi pieces.
September 8th, 2011 at 7:28 pm
@machone7I Veyron has a 8 litre W16 not a V
September 8th, 2011 at 8:15 pm
amazing this car speed 408 Km/h!
September 8th, 2011 at 9:06 pm
@YesIAmThatCoolBitch Well, don’t bother answer me repeating myself and a conversation that you can read. Maybe i’m not right. So tell me, a young stupid guy, why what i say is idiotic and completely nonsense?
September 8th, 2011 at 9:29 pm
@YesIAmThatCoolBitch I talk about a standard veyron, you pop in with a veyron supersports. I say that a car that goes 408 km/h is fasters than one that goes 402. Obvious. You answer that the veyron SS is faster, i say that i wasn’t talking about the SS. I reference my first comment and you find holes in other comments. You say too that i can’t compare two supercars that reach similar speeds and the companies behind them. I make myself, in my opinion, clear enough. Then i’m entirely stupid.
September 8th, 2011 at 9:51 pm
@YesIAmThatCoolBitch To cars do the same, for different amounts of money, resources and the technology of their time. I compare them, and to me, the ‘vette is the winner. It doesn’t sound stupid or unfair to me, but it’s okay. I keep seeing my comparasion as fair, but if you have a superior mind to mine, it’s ok. I can’t keep up. If my comments don’t match well between each other, it’s because yours don’t have to do with anything i say.
September 8th, 2011 at 10:00 pm
@machone7I
That’s just bullshit. Think about it. That’s just so stupid I’m strugling to find words for it. GOD thats dumb
enough said nice life idiot
September 8th, 2011 at 10:05 pm
@YesIAmThatCoolBitch Nice to see that…
“254MPH. German scientists with millions need an 8 litre V16 engien and 4 turbos to get “only” 1000 hp that will go AS fast after 30 years. Ahmmmm… That corvette kicks ass…” -that’s copied from my first comment. the only one of which i’ve talked about, my only reference, and the only point i want to make. I already explained it, so i doubt i have to write it once again.
September 8th, 2011 at 11:03 pm
@machone7I
Yeah thanks, you don’t have to write every single fact about both cars engines again, I got it.
And what you said in your previous comment was: “The ‘vette is faster and that’s a fact.” Reading this sentence I’m pretty positive you DIDN’T say AS fast as…
September 8th, 2011 at 11:27 pm
@YesIAmThatCoolBitch I didn’t say faster, i said AS fast. Meaning a bit over 400 km/h. the Veyron SS is limited to 415, but it can reach even a bit more. Still, they all go a bit over 400. And for the veyron it takes 4 turbos, 8000cc carbon fiber and kevlar and millions of €. And to get a bit over 400, the corvette, 20 years before, needs 5700cc, two turbos, fiberglass, and not nearly as much money. Plus the ‘vette was much more advanced for it’s time than the SS is. That’s what i said.
September 8th, 2011 at 11:37 pm
@machone7I
Neither did I. But you said, the Corvette is faster than the Veyron, that is just false. Cause the Bugatti VEYRON Super Sport IS a Veyron, and it IS faster than the Corvette.
You’re right, it’s impressive what this guy has done with this Corvette years ago, but you cannot compare it to the Veyron with a whole Company behind it, as you mentioned.
September 9th, 2011 at 12:10 am
@YesIAmThatCoolBitch Never mentioned this as the fastest car in the world… Before the supersport, there was the shelby that went 2 km/h faster than the corvette. What i say is that with almost 2.5 litres less, less than 4 turbos and much less money, this car did more than a 2 million euro bugatti made by scientists from VW, and this was made, remember, 22 years ago. With a car design that is almost 30 years old. Read and re read my comment, i dont mention the fastest car in the world.
September 9th, 2011 at 1:07 am
@machone7I
Bugatti Veyron Super Sport limited to 415 km per hour. That’s more than 254 mph, right? That makes you a jerk
September 9th, 2011 at 1:14 am
@YesIAmThatCoolBitch The veyron is a very fast comfortable not really efficient luxury car, while that
corvette is desined for speed and racing purposes. The ‘vette is faster and that’s a fact. Now, i’ll think about what santa has to do with this, unless it was a sarcasm trial with not much sense, and what makes me a jerk in my first comment…
