| Hi bros and sis, any idea which is better? If I am already fitted with a suitable shaft, does the head makes a diff? Will choosing one over the other resulted in longer distance (assuming same shaft)?
Thanks for reply. Apologies if this is a stupid question as I'm just figuring out what club fitting is |

| i think the headweight is different for both. So definitely will affect. Clubface also can be shallower/deeper. Alot of bros here hit the razr fit really well. I would think it's a kickass driver but I've not personally used it. I'm on the RBZ and it works for me.
Again, it's still advisable for you to try them and see the results for yourself.

| Don't know how the RBZ performs but I just changed to the Razr Fit and it is extremely forgiving. Although I was using a stiff shaft on my previous driver (Cobra S2 10.5), I feel that the current setup on my Razr Fit is more suitable for me. ( Stock Shaft RIP'd Regular 60g on 9.5 head)
Go over to BFG Bukit Merah. I read from another thread that they have different shafts for you to try on the Razr Fit. If they have the shaft that you are currently using, you will be able to compare the two drivers, assuming you have already tried the RBZ on the same shaft.
I love my Razr Fit!!!! |

| I've tried the RBZ on stock shaft, and it can't compare to my Superfast 2.0 3W fitted with UST Axivcore. I think it's all about the shaft. I took 3 wood twice on a 439m Par 4 today, and was putting about 8 feet for birdie. Missed it though. But like I said, with the right shaft, the club will perform. |

Waaaa..... 3 wood for tee off..... must be a low index hole and you have chocolate from someone. How much did you win on that hole?

| No chocolate from anyone.. It's my 2nd game since my knee op, and sure as hell am not playing for money. I think it was an Index 1 or 2 hole. Puteri C Course hole 9. That monster of a Par 4... |

| If you're keen on RBZ, get the RBZ Tour model. Lower spin, better dispersion, on my swing. _________________ For Sale: Zen Zam LH British Open 2010 F360 $200 Mizuno MPT11 52/GW DG Spinner $80 Graman Limey 80S Hyb shaft with VDR grip $70

| Went through so many drivers from Nike to Nickent but the best fit was cutting shaft to 44 inch. Got a preloved R11 with Graman 6 shaft from BFG and man it flies. Matched it with Bridgestone e7 and whoa I hit 240m drives. Wow I'm sure all the parts matter but consider the length of the shaft as an option too. I'm a 20 handicapper so caveat emptor applies. |

No need to be apologetic. We feel you.
This is the reason why we joined internet forum so that we can get classified info on stuff.
Anyway, the BEST ANSWER is still it must come from you.
Means, you have to try them both and "feel" the product. If you can borrow them and swing them in the driving range and in the fairway. Thats the Best move you will make.
You can get countless of opinions. There are Callaway & TaylorMade bias fan online and will create magnificent write up about how great it is.
Best move is to hit it yourself and decide which one works for you. |

| I think i posted this qn sometime back, we have the same dilemma bro... haha
I tried the RBZ and FIT with a similar shaft/ loft setup - Graman5 stiff & Project X 5.5 (SR), and FIT gives me better average distant and control. Dispersion was also more consistent on the FIT. The square club face at address also gives me more confidence... maybe it's a personal thingy
However, recently was at the Cally demo at MBGC, was told that FIT is more suitable for golfers with stable and better swing consistencies....
Like bro Hybrid mentioned, you shld try it yourself and hit as many shots as possible to get a good feel... |

Bro, I do not have the chance to try the RBZ & Fit yet. Did you say they were both square club face during address ( not close in design) ? I presume you are using 9.5 loft. I am not good enough to use 9.5. was the 10.5 loft square too ? |

| pak slicer, the fit is adjustable. Can be set square, close or open face. RBZ has TM's FCT i.e. can change the loft and lie angle, but face is one setting. It doesn't have a sole plate like the R11. The tour model has fade/neutral bias weighting, the regular has draw bias weighting. The tour model looks square to me  _________________ For Sale: Zen Zam LH British Open 2010 F360 $200 Mizuno MPT11 52/GW DG Spinner $80 Graman Limey 80S Hyb shaft with VDR grip $70

| Bro slicer,
The club face is neutral/square for both lofts.
Just to share with you, I have a very low launch because of the nature of my swing, but my current Fit setup actually helped me. It is a 9.5 on the regular stock shaft rip'd NV
Give it a try. You will be surprised. It is easy to handle.

| I felt that my rarz fit was launching v high so I measued my 9.5 Rarz Fit. It was closer to 11 degree on the mitchell loft and lie machine. According to a fitter there is no defined or standard way of measuring loft within the industry so manufacturers can measure the loft anywhere on the club face and declare it 9.5 or 10.5.
I wanted to try the head on a low launching shaft like the ahina but did not find the chance. |
