Longest Golf Driver - Sole
The 4 parameters to engineering a long distance driver are mostly scientific - the Volume, MOI, COR, and COG can be optimized through computer-aided design software. But there is also an art to club design. The construction and manufacturing of a club head specifically for long-distance drives requires some creative and unique solutions.
Most off-the-shelf drivers are made with a 4-piece construction, gluing together the face and body. They momentarily deform at high swing speeds, resulting in energy loss. Alpha Golf’s plasma welding forges the SP700 Titanium face and the body at extremely high heat. Effectively acting like a solid single piece on contact. Golf swings thus get virtually loss-less impacts on every drive. Energy loss (through deformation or sound or any other factor) is something the USGA does not measure or regulate. At least not yet!
The plasma welding does another thing - remember how we talked about moving weight away from the face and towards the back of the club for optimal center of gravity? Well the welding material that glues together a 4-piece construction contributes a few hundred milligrams to the overall weight of the head. It is enough weight that removing the glue from the face pushes the COG a few millimeters towards the back of the club. Plasma welding eliminates this extra weight.
Plasma welding is a much more expensive and time-consuming endeavor than traditional club head construction. But this innovative manufacturing process is one of the long-distance secrets behind the Alpha C830.2. It is an art, but has scientific backing (and Re/Max World Long Drive Titles) to justify the extra craftsmanship.
