What is different
Weight, balance and price change between them; the rest is the same. Pick one to look closer.
The same face on both: fibreglass. Fibreglass is softer than carbon and forgives more; it suits players still building their swing.
No edge either way
* The feel starts from the core's rated hardness (estimated from the core material where there is no rating), then the face: carbon 12K and up is firmer, fibreglass softer.
About the same weight: 310 g and 310 to 325 g.
No edge either way
