The Mitsubishi Rayon Kuro Kage Black 50 weighs 59 grams with 4.9 degrees of torque and is designed to produce a mid ball flight. I was eager to test the VRS Covert since the club design is drastically different from anything else available. I was pleasantly surprised with the results and concluded the VRS is one of the top performing drivers this year.
While designed to produce a mid ball flight, most shots tended to be a little higher. The VRS provided outstanding carry distance combined with one of the most forgiving drivers available. Shots generally went straight with little movement either direction. Although the driver provided better carry distance, the ball had generally landed softer and rolled about 10 yards on average.In addition, I tested the VRS Covert with the Mitsubishi Rayon Kuro Kage Silver 60 shaft in stiff flex. Intended to produce a low trajectory, the Kuro Kage Silver shaft weighs 66 grams with 4.4 degrees of torque. The Kuro Kage Silver delivered a lower trajectory. Results generally produced a straighter ball flight with the Silver shaft.
Although performance characteristics were different, they both performed extremely well.In addition, I tested the Nike VRS Covert Tour driver with the two stock shafts with stiff flex. Testing with both shafts occurred in the neutral 9.5 degree loft. Similar to the regular Covert, the ball really jumps off the club face at impact, regardless of a toe or heel shot. Ball flight is generally straight, but provides a little more movement than the regular Covert model.The Kuro Kage Black is designed to produce a mid ball flight.
Therefore, ball flight was generally higher than the lower trajectory of the Kuro Kage Silver shaft. Personally, I preferred the Kuro Kage Black 50 shaft, which I felt provided a little more pop. Both shafts performed well, the biggest difference in the Tour head was trajectory.
