Btw
MT if you look at the thread heading it had absolutely nothing to do with debates over aluminum vs cast iron and what people think etc. Its just a simple promaxx 320 quality and flow thread. Looking forward to the results. I have a feeling we are gonna have 2 good affordable options , in both flavors to pick from ! Thanks for sharing the info |
Choosing heads can be like choosing what set of tees you play from on a golf course. Pick your own poison. I typically only advise the ones who ask. Never fails though when I recommend to play the whites when asked they always want to play the tips but then rarely hit the ball past the reds. So in a nutshell regardless the statistics people will pick or choose as they see fit.

Point being I think it's awesome the big players that have been around with great reputations finally have some competition and are no longer your only choices. That's what I like... It was beginning to be a monopoly. Cast/aluminum who cares. Build specific and preference the way I see it. I normally wouldn't feel that way about USA companies but over the last few years I've heard and seen some really poor quality come from those companies also.
While some may look at it as anti american, it could also go the other way. The big companies like dart and afr, have put a hige dent in the local machine shops income, by advertising bolt on ready quality. As you have said, the problem is, that just isnt the case. With cheaper castings available, now the average consumer, can buy them, take them to their favorite head guy, and get a really nice performing and nice quality product, while still investing in our economy. And before we get all high and mighty about the buy american thing, lets remember , the computer, cell phone, laptop, router, modem, and other things we utilize to be discussing this topic at the moment, are also made overseas ... Same goes for most of the cranks and rods alot of us are running these days. Scat and eagle were supplying budget import cranks to the U.S. Then Callies was like F that, and came out with the compstar line. Which is a nice product. You think if scat and eagle never existed, callies would have randomly came out with an imported affordable crank option? Heck no. Competiton is what motivated them Like Trump says, competition is good. |

Absolutely. I just saw on facebook, theres a guy from china, who has some castings that were copies of the afr heads. Suppsedly extremely cheap, and some guys have bought pallets of them, and said the castings were very clean.
