USEFUL POWER.
Presenting the 900 Driver.
Group Title (Optional)
The Driver 900 is the new spearhead of the Inesis clubs range. It perfectly embodies our goal of designing clubs for advanced players with a handicap between 15 and 0.
1. POWER
Group Title (Optional)
We worked on all aspects that help the Driver 900 generate ball speed. We also made bold choices. We didn’t want the Driver 900 to look like a concept car bristling with gadgets and fancy technology. Everything you see on the Driver 900 is purpose-built, tested and approved.
THE BEST OF TITANIUM
The Driver 900 is assembled in two parts: the body and the face. This reduces the number of manufacturing stages and production modifications. The power also comes from the quality of the materials. We chose titanium 8-11 for the body of the club head for its excellent mechanical properties. The face is made of titanium 15. This is an alloy of titanium and 4 other materials for even better characteristics. A sort of super titanium.
10° IS THE IDEAL LOFT
Did you know that loft is the number 1 factor that influences the power of a club? Want to hit 10 metres higher with a 7 iron? Go from 32° to 28°! (fortunately, no one does that #irony) Except that eventually stops working. With the Driver, you need to find the lowest loft with which the golfer can generate enough ball height (around 30 metres is ideal) and the right amount of spin (around 2000-2500 rpm) to achieve a good ball flight and turn power into distance.
Group Title (Optional)
That’s why we chose a 10° loft for the Driver 900. This loft, coupled with three shafts with different characteristics, allows you to generate the perfect flight angle for the three swing speeds (slow, medium, fast).
This is a great solution to the adjustable hosel, which inconveniently places a lot of weight right at the point you don’t need it on the driver, because it raises the centre of gravity.
THE BEST SHAFTS OF THE MOMENT
We have been uncompromising with the shafts. We continue to put our trust in the excellent products of UST Mamiya. Our clubs engineer Kevin went to their facility in Texas and tested the entire range. We chose the shafts that worked best with our head for the 3 target swing speeds. The new LIN-Q produced the best results in terms of distance and precision.
We kept the idea of two sizes, just like with the rest of the Inesis clubs, and 3 swing speeds. However, at the same swing speed levels (slow, medium, fast), the shafts of the Driver 900 are significantly stiffer than those on the Driver 500.
2. CONTROL
Group Title (Optional)
The main difference between an intermediate player and an advanced player is that the latter looks for CONTROL in their driver. Not really in terms of trajectory (draw or fade), since it’s the player who impacts this most, but rather in terms of ball height. For the same swing, the Driver 900 is able to offer two different trajectory heights. Choose the one for you depending on your natural trajectory or the course conditions.
2 WEIGHTS, 2 HEIGHTS
There are two weights on the sole of the Driver 900. They have the same shape but completely different weights. The first is made of aluminium and weighs 4 grams. The second is made of tungsten and weighs 14 grams. You can play around with the position of the weights to carefully adjust the ball height and further optimise your drives.
- 4 g aluminium front weight / 14 g tungsten rear weight = rear centre of gravity, higher ball with more spin, ideal if the balls don’t roll much on the fairway or if you’re looking for more ball height.
- 14 g tungsten front weight / 4 g aluminium rear weight = front centre of gravity, lower ball with less spin, ideal if the balls roll a lot on the fairway or if you’re looking for less ball height.
3. FORGIVENESS
Group Title (Optional)
To play at a handicap of under 15, you know you need to drive well, i.e., get the ball in play. So an advanced Inesis driver must be a forgiving club. We want to get a driver into your hands that you feel completely confident with.
THE LEGACY OF THE DRIVER 500
The Driver 500 is renowned for being incredibly forgiving. In 2020, it was even named the most forgiving driver on the market by MyGolfSpy for swings slower than 94 mph, which is right in the intermediate players target speed.
So it was on this basis we designed the Driver 900. This is a naturally forgiving club that’s well-balanced, easy to handle and has a high MOI. It’s all been designed to ensure you feel confident at address.
A WORD FROM THE DESIGNER.
“Compared with the Driver 500, which is used as the basis for development, the design has to be more technical, more streamlined. The notion of control has to be visible in the design with the lines and with the technologies used: we use CNC machining, laser engraving, 3D decal, etc.”
Charles Garbani, Driver 900 Designer
CALCULATE THE PRICE PER METRE!
The price of the Driver 900 is €300. This is the price to make an excellent driver with quality materials, high-end shafts, an adjustment system and perfect workmanship. On a 230 metre drive, that equates to €1.30 per metre. We don’t really like making you pay for useless concepts, sponsoring or advertising. The Driver 900 is about useful power.
IT’S THE FAMILY.
The Driver 900 should be combined with a 3-wood and 2 hybrids. You can make up your golf bag with 900 clubs like so:
- Driver 900 / 10°
- 3-wood 900 / 15°
- Hybrid 900 and/or Utilities 900 3 (19°) / 4 (22°)
- 900 series from 5 to PW 44°)
- Wedges 900 / 48°-52°-56°-58°
