MS-5 Standard. (STD) The MS-5 Standard is designed with the better player in mind with a neutral bias.
Draw Bias (DR) Weight has been shifted to favor a draw bias. To do this, Ashton moved interior weight towards the heel, encouraging the head to square up more easily upon impact.
High Launch (HL) To achieve a higher launch angle, Ashton reduced the weight of the crown area and increased the weight of the sole area. They did this by manufacturing the crown from super strong 100% beta titanium, then decreasing the crown's thickness and weight while maintaining it's structural integrity. The low COG of the HL head produces higher shots resulting in longer distance and control. Forget those dull feeling graphite crown drivers.
Super light 192g head weight (SL) To decrease the total weight of the super light head, Ashton forged the crown, sole and skirt of 100% beta titanium. This decreases the total head weight while maintaining structural integrity. Designed for anyone from the senior golfer to the top long drive competitor. The super light head lends itself easily to increased swing speed and club head speed for those looking to increase distance. This head is cannon tested for durability and structural integrity at any swing speed.
Heavy weight 207g head weight (HW) Designed with the better golfer in mind. Ashton build a shorter length driver with a favorable swing weight without negatively effecting sound, feel and esthetics or negatively effecting the COG of the head and or increasing hook tendencies.

MS-5 Titanium Driver
The MS-5 is the most technologically advanced component driver available on the market today. MS-5 stands for Multi-Sole 5. Ashton has effectively designed 5 heads into one model by weighting the sole plate, crown, and skirt in 5 different areas.
The MS-5 features a double satin finish face. What is double satin? When a titanium head is produced it has a natural satin finish. Traditionally it is then lightly sanded to obtain the uniform satin finish. Ashton strove for a satin finish not found on traditional component heads. To get to this finish, the face of the MS-5 is lightly sanded from raw form and then polished to a mirror finish. The third step is to very lightly sand the face to a very shallow and fine satin finish. The result is simply beautiful, adding to the overall stunning appearance of the MS-5 head.
The MS-5 also features score lines. MS-5 prototype heads were tested with and without score lines. Testing concluded that the head with score lines performed better with regard to accuracy and dispersion, and it performed equally as well with regard to distance. In wet weather, there was simply no comparison; score lines were far superior. When swing speeds exceeded 135 mph, score lines were detrimental. Also, since the MS-5 does not have any crown markings, the score lines act as an excellent alignment aid.
