What we say...
Tech:
Fully adjustable driver featuring Lynx’s weight bar system. Weight can be moved to the front or back of the clubhead to adjust launch and spin conditions. The Black Cat driver has a sleek head shape with matt finish, available in black, blue or red.
Our verdict:
Simply put, the black finished Black Cat is the best driver Lynx has made for some time. The deep face won’t be everyone’s cup of tea but if you’re looking for a sensibly priced, powerful driver with a reasonable degree of forgiveness then you’ve found your match. Both our test pro and Simon posted some of their longest drives with the Black Cat, which were right up alongside the premium models. A change of 1.5 deg in launch angle, 5mph of ball speed, 300rpm of backspin and 12 yards of carry distance for our test pro by switching the weight from back to front shows not only does the tech have an impact on performance but also a low and forward CG can help a particular type of golfer.
Bottom line:
A really unassuming driver that you don’t expect too much from, but trust us it really is a cannon. Try the Black Cat against a couple of premium alternatives this year and we reckon you’ll be very pleasantly surprised.
