    Tried to test these 2 .. not very scientific i suppose, but used Oakmont no.1 tee under low wind conditions .. dunno how many drives i hit, but was alot .. alternated between these two drivers .. had to quit & reload everytime after each hit & i was trying to compare the performance of each driver under similar wind conditions, i.e wind yds from behind per driver, etc etc ...

    From what i can tell the G20 seems to better once there's any kind of headwind, which i find abit odd since the avg dist for the Rballz driver is 5yds longer and it has a medium trajectory against the G20's high trajectory ..

    The Rballz driver seems to a bit better as soon as the wind is directly from the side or from behind which i kinda expected ..

    Few examples: i'm gonna use aggregate of 2mph wind from behind: Rballz has about 5-10 yds on the G20 here .. max dist i could get with G20 was 308yds & with Rballz 315yds ..

    3mph from front: G20 found max of 296yds & Rballz 292yds ..

    of course many other factors come into play here determining the end result: ding or not, bounce, etc ...

    G20's listed avg is 270yds & Rballz listed at 275yds ..

    And i just cannot decide which is the better to use.

    I was wondering if anyone else might have experimented with these 2 drivers ? And which one they prefer .. maybe there's good reason to pick one over the other ? Would appreciate some input from the more experienced .. thx

    I have the G20, and rented the RBZ for one day to try it out. Could not tell any distance improvement with the RBZ. I stuck with the G20, and am just waiting to make level 83 to get the complete level 83 G20 set, including the 280 yd driver.
