Not true, the COR limit of .83 which applies to drivers, woods, hybrids, and irons pertains to the clubs “sweet spot”. That is the area of the club face with the maximum energy transfer. The further away from the sweet spot on the club face, the lower the COR value.

With BMG, they can dampen the face to reduce the COR at the sweet spot (meaning lowering it down to .83), but still get .83 in areas outside the sweet spot. Making a much larger sweet spot on the club face.

There is no restriction for putters, so it can still be used without limit for this club.

When they get to BMG/graphite weave materials, it will revolutionize golf shafts.

It can also be used as a core material in golf balls to increase distance.

So golf is definitely not out. In fact, I believe LQMT Japan is going to be for golf products.
