Having the original Trimetal, which yields very long yardage (like, the longest driver I own, despite advances in technology), I had an opportunity to pick up a Trimetal Plus. I figured that Orlimar made the face higher to accomodate shot-shaping for better players. With the sole weighting and maraging face one might assume that the club would hit similarly long as the original design. In practice, this doesn't seem to be the case. While it is a good club and performs very similarly to KZG Maraging Power, Armour 845s Ti and Ping i3 (drawing from my own experience), it does not carry nearly as long as the shallow-faced original design. That said, I would say that the original Trimetal would be a difficult club for shaping shots, but a great club for the straight driver seeking to hit the middle of the fairway. What the Trimetal Plus lacks in distance it gains in working the ball.

Definitely the most disappointing driver ever made by Orlimar... does not have the consistent distance,direction nor the ball flight or forgiveness that typify Orlimar drivers as one of the best in the market. On some shots there will be the long ball that goes on forever but this is few and far between.Most of the time it either delivers high cuts or else dives left in a most ungainly fashion... very disappointing! :(

Orlimar Hipti(all 3 versions - 300cc 8.5*,315cc 9.5* & 340cc 10.5* - all amazing clubs!), Trimetal II 350cc(also excellent) & the newer 440cc Hti(great club as well!)

What a club, what a bargain !This is longer and straighter than my old Steelhead plus, and makes a lovely sound, not missing many fairways - can power fade the ball 270 - 300 plus. Do not see many in England, but as I have the 22 deg fairway wood, I thought that I would snap this up. Only criticism is the length of shaft ( too long by an inch if you are 5'10') and the relatively thin grip, now changed for a golf pride tour velvet midsize. I wonder if a proforce 65 stiff tip would provide more control than the std rapport firm flex. All in, a great buy - cannot see me changing for a while - also bought the small headed trimetal irons for $200, and they are great as well.

I used to own this club with an EI-70 tour stiff shaft. I always hit it extremely well. Then I started playing around with other drivers (TM300 series , Callaways , etc.) and could nver hit any driver as consistantly as the Orlimar Plus. I think the smaller head (185 cc) makes the club much more workable. I bought this latest Orlimar Plus off eBay this winter & installed a Fujikura Vista Pro 70 stiff-flex shaft in this club , and WOW !!! It is long , long , long !! It has the sweetest sound , and feels so pure. I'm officially turned off by the big-head drivers , and finally feel comfortable again off the tee with a driver. I plan to stock up on this combination for the future ... this club will be in my bag for good.

Trimetal+ With stock rapport stiff flex. good price ,good quality, most important, good results. Fantistic.

by far the sweetest fairway metal to hit ever to roam the earth!!!!This club has the looks, the solid feel, but metallic click (music to my ears), the forgiveness, and the ability to hit it high and far out of extremely difficult lies. I could hit this club easily off a cartpath, serious! The shaft is real nice.. the ei70... its good looking and sinces it's modified to be lighter for the orlimar head... it's real easy to swing. I'm fourteen and pretty weak... but with this club in an 18 dgree model, i can hit it 200 dead straight, high and land it soft... the value is great too... i found this club for 90 bucks brand new... if u want the best fairway metal eve made... look no further... get one today...(hey... for 90 bucks, i still had enough to buy pro v1 balls... now that's another story) god i love this game and this club will make u love it too.

Originally owned the Trimetal. Hit my drives straight but way too high (usually 215/220 yds). Lost a fair amount of distance. Bought an 8 degree, EI70 regular flex Trimetal Plus in an effort to lower my drives and gain more roll/distance. With my swing speed of 90/92 mph, even a EI70 regular flex shaft, coupled with the 8 degree was too stiff of a shaft. I replaced the EI70 with a Rifle Graphite, 5.0, mid-kick shaft. I couldn''t believe the difference. The ball explodes off the club face and now I''m hitting a much lower drive, getting the roll, and have added 20/25 yds. While the head is nice and feels great, the shaft makes the difference.

This Club ROCKS!! Recently purchasecd a Nikent GH 360 forged titanium driver. With such a big head I almost needed a batting tee to hit the ball. Could not find tees long enough. Thought I would go to the other extreme with the Orlimar because of the awesome price. Have found the smaller head so much easier to control. The ball explodes off the club face and is so much easier to hit with the lower tee position. I''ve read reports of people slicing the ball with this club but that is a direct result of their swings, not the club. Overall a fantastic deal!!

Since posting my earlier review I''''ve changed the shaft to an EI70 Stiff shaft. As I got more accustomed to the driver and began to hit it harder I found that the OEM stiff shaft was not stiff enough. In fact it was more of a regular shaft and as a consequence high slices were becoming the norm. A trip to Tim Liddington at St Georges Hill Golf Club (he works on clubs for a number of the European Tour Pros) confirmed this. Tim recommended the EI70 shaft and it has turned a very good driver into a first rate driver. You can work the ball with this shaft in it.
