Perks
The large clubhead with a very deep face has an excessively large sweet spot that's perfect for beginning players and golfers with higher handicaps. Snake Eyes' Python XL also has a slightly closed face to promote a draw for players with a neutral swing or a straight ball for golfers who slice.
Sacrifices
The Python XL is not really a top-brand club so, while it has some definite benefits to higher-handicap players, it really doesn't have the same level of quality control, promotion or availability as the most well-known brands. It is also a club that is really designed for the higher-handicapper and does not have the workability skilled players look for.
Bottom Line
Retailing at about $250, but available from many retailers at less than $200, the Snake Eyes Python XL is a great, bargain driver for novice players or players with a higher handicap.
