Install weaker shaft
-
Recently assembled Encore driver with r flex fgs shaft 10 degrees loft. Diamond tour tells you it will flight lower that is correct but they fail to tell you it will play much stiffer due to the deep bore hosel. Typical ball flight is a low fade or slice,my swing speed is 92-94 mph. Right on the cusp of R to s flex,installed senior flex fgs plus shaft and it now plays much better but not as good as my old Turner T-13. Earlier this year I assembled a smt 455 deep bore with a Project x X-Flex shaft, club is impossible to hit. Will have to change outout that shaft too.

Details
Encore… the perfect name for this deep faced beauty, as it was created to be the “big brother” to the ever popular Spectrum clubhead.
While this is a large clubhead, you really don’t get that feeling at address. We wanted to bring something different to the award winning lineup of SMT products, and the Encore is the only head in the line with a higher center of gravity to produce a markedly lower spin profile and launch angle over similarly lofted heads that you will find in the rest of this catalog.
Its unique stovepipe matte black finish, like the hotrods of old, dares you to take a rip at it with this bulldog of a driver.
The Encore, like it smaller sibling the Spectrum, features the three sided wrap around soleplate design which raises the center of gravity to a point where it actually reduces the spin profile of this clubhead allowing your tee shot to return to the fairway at a much more shallow angle for more roll after impact.
Like all current SMT drivers, the face is totally void of scorelines to preserve the integrity of the structure.
You will find your Encore to play lower than stated loft, regardless of the loft chosen to fit your game, so be sure to plan for lower ball flight when choosing your new Encore clubhead.
Pick up an Encore today and see what hitting last from the fairway feels like for a change.
