How we score →The green bar wins the round. The Hero takes 2 of the six, the One Silhouette takes control and sweet spot and comfort and handling.
Feel is read from the core and the face until hardness is measured.
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: 350 to 360 g and 350 to 365 g.
No edge either way
