Hope all is well , my question is does the thickness of a blade specifically muscle back blades does the thickness of the muscle pad in the lower part of the blade does that give better ball speed, feel , workability maybe higher mpf . Especially looking at the new Honma blade Justin Rose is playing looks thick compared to a blade like a Taylormade P 730 ?
You can’t go by the looks. I know that sounds odd, but the factors that matter are the mass and dimensional characterisitcs of the head, no matter what the muscle shape is, the cavity shape is, etc. It is easy to assume that when you see a feature like a low muscle, or deep undercut that the cg would be lower, but that may not be the case. The total shape of the mass and how the weight is distributed determines it’s playability. Would be interesting to measure the Honma. Hopefully we will get a chance.
