Although I'm a Callaway guy, I'd still choose TaylorMade over Callaway. Why? Simply because they're #1 driver in golf. Ok, that's ad talking. Anyway, I love their MWT technology - the ability to shape your shot. Btw, I'm currently using the r7 460cc. Although it doesn't have too much option in changing the result (only straight or draw due to only 2 ports available), but it has helped me eliminate the slice most of the time. A close friend of mine, however, has the r7 425cc. Now, that's the club I'm talking about. It can actually adapt to your current swing. With the stock weights (2-2 grams and 2-12 grams), you'll be able to choose whatever kind of result you're looking for (draw, straight, or fade). But if you decide to get the weight kit, the possibility of different trajectories are even greater.

And now, TaylorMade has the r7 SuperQuad 460cc with 4 weight ports. In other words, r7 425cc and r7 460cc live together in 1 black painted house (yes, the new driver is all black).

So, if you're looking for those kind of features, which I am, TaylorMade is for you. Like I said earlier, it is the #1 driver in golf.

I really like my Cobra F-Speed. I've only had a driver in the bag for a year or so - the Cobra replaced my Callaway Hawkeye. Unfortunately I bought it before I got fitted and found out I have the wrong shaft stiffness.

I'm thinking I'll probably sell it soon and go get fitted for a new driver this year.

I currently play either the R7 425, or the Nike SQ. I find myself using the R7 more often than not, even though I am longer with the Nike. I just have more control with the R7 so I opt for that at the expense of the distance. I am not real happy with the stock shaft of the Nike so I may either swap it out, or just get rid of the club altogether.

I'm still using the R5 and will for a while yet. I am going to change out the shaft this year. I dont really care what name is on the head. I think there is too little credit given to the value of having the right shaft in place.
