Blackest Black = Fastest Fast.

The sleek new look shows who came to play. The reputation ensures its reign will be a long one.

Finely tuned barrel profile slightly balances the end-loaded design for faster swings, more surface area, a wider sweet spot, and higher overall performance. Stiff outer-locking system connects the S-40 composite handle to the AZR alloy barrel for power and performance, while dismissing virtually all vibrations on contact.
