Took the two Savants out to the field today and tested them with a 172g proto luster Savant, a seasoned 167g Champ Thunderbird, 2 170g S-PD's, a 171g Star Teebird3, and a 167g Star TL3.
Powerwise, I can put the fairways out about 400' flat and 450' if pushing their limits.
Out of the box, the Star Savants were flat to small fade. Full power flat, they were coming up about 30' shorter than the PD's and Thunderbird, 20' shorter than the TL3, and about 30' longer than the Teebird3 and Proto Savant. They feel great in the hand and were super easy to manage the angle on. They held over on flexes for a while just barely fighting out to a fade at the end.
Overall, I like the mold but not sure where it would fit in the bag. Currently bagging the PD's for stable fairways, TL3 for neutral shots and a Leopard3 for flippy/roller duties.
It's basically a slightly longer Teebird3 that still doesn't sniff Thunderbird distance.
