Review of Snake Eyes Golf Clubs
Specs

The Snake Eyes Python XL driver is a bargain-priced 460cc driver (the maximum size allowable by the USGA) designed for all levels of player from single-digit handicaps to high handicappers. This club has a deep face and elongated head with a tungsten back weight at the bottom rear to help maximize forgiveness and increase launch angle. The clubhead specs are designed to promote a slight draw, so this club is ideal for players with a tendency to slice.

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.

How to Give Your Golf Clubs a Tuneup
by John D. Tudor
During the course of a year, an avid golfer's clubs are swung anywhere between 18,000 and 20,000 times, carried or hauled on a golf cart for about 3,000 miles, roughly handled another 1,000 times, tossed about the trunk of a car for over 20,000 miles and swung in a variety of less-than-perfect situations involving low-hanging branches, rocks and hardpan. Obviously, the stress and strain a golf club endures goes far beyond that for which it's designed, so now is the perfect time to examine your woods and irons and, if necessary, get them back into playing shape.
