Verdicts
ONIX Evoke Premier Pro
Onix finally thermoformed the Evoke. It hits noticeably harder than the standard Premier while keeping the wide standard shape that made the original forgiving.
Selkirk Vanguard Power Air
Explosive acceleration and crisp feedback for players who create their own control. The air-dynamic throat cuts drag noticeably on fast swings.
