The driver that suits you.

This sort of poll is ridiculous.

Not to mention that Ping, Bridgestone, Adams, Cobra, Cleveland and Mizuno would be counted as "other".

Totally ridiculous.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

Yeah-not sure what you hope to accomplish or discover with this poll.  My favorite driver is a Nike, but I also own 2 Titleist drivers.  So I should I vote Nike?  But wait, my Dad uses a Cleveland Hibore XL Tour that I absolutely crush the ball with.  Should I vote Cleveland?  Bottom line-I have no idea what is best for anyone other than myself.

All companies make good stuff. A good starting point is to get on a launch monitor and see what your launch angles and spin are, a good clubfitter will be able to narrow it down a bit for you. Since I recently purchased a Titleist 910 D2, that's what I would recommend trying. Taylormade makes very nice drivers, as does Bridgestone, Callaway, Mizuno, Nike, Adams, etc etc. Pick a driver that looks good at setup for you and take it from there. If you get fitted, make sure you try out a bunch of different clubheads and them search for a shaft to you're liking. "The Best Driver in Golf" is so vague, it is really what you feel looks best, feels best, and gives you optimum results. Good luck in your search!

I have Nike Driver but I think Taylormade is the best brand out there.  Since they keep coming out with the new innovations which are different from the rest of the brands.

Whats in my Golf Bag:
Driver: Nike Sumo 5000
5 Wood: Mizuno MP-001
Iron: Mizuno MX-950 5-PW
Wedge: Cobra FP 60 degrePutter: Odyssey 2-BallBall: Yellow balls

My favorite driver is from a company that no longer exist, Nickent. But it looks like many others that are out there. As others have said, there really is no best other than the one that works for you.

 Sub 70 849 9* driver

:callaway:  Rogue 3 & 5 woods, Rogue X 4 & 5 hybrids

:tmade: SIM 2 6-gap irons

:cobra:  King snakebite grove wedges 52 & 58*

 :ping: Heppler ZB3 putter

I voted other.  Lots of good drivers out there but I've always been fond of Ping and Cobra. Not too sure about Cobra since they changed hands.  But always felt that the two clubs that you personalize are your driver and putter.

I don't disagree with you at all, Taylormade makes solid stuff. However, I feel that this is where they get a hold of shoppers, they make you believe their stuff is the best because of their innovations in the clubs. Personally, I have never been a fan of all this adjustment. I got an R7 Quad when they first came out, and I spent more time dinking with those darn weights than I did trying to correct my swingpath. I really was disappointed when Titleist brought the adjustment into their line, however, I bought one and love keeping it on a draw bias.

We know that TM's marketing team is doing a great job i guess.  with customer service aside, i think the brand is the least important thing on the club.  i had a TM r580 XD which i hit well, but bought an Adams Speedline Fast 10 with a matrix shaft for a good deal and i hit it well so i am happy.

buying new clubs is all about performance and preference...2 things which are not the same thing from player to player.

Well for me at least.....

Nickent made such great stuff, too bad they aren't around. Their hybrids were top, by far, hands down, period.

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By klineka ·

      Gotcha. Still surprised those were that slow too, those are usually some of the quicker/nicer maintained greens of the public courses I play.

      Where Is Your Next Golf Trip Going to Be?

      By DaveP043 ·

      I go every year for Thanksgiving, this year I'll be arriving on 11/15 with 3 buddies.  Conditions have always been pretty good, greens are always near-perfect.  The only downside is that some courses will have overseeded, and they generally keep the fairways pretty wet while the rye gets started.

      Our Men's Business League Starts Tonight With an Interesting Local Rule.

      By Elmer ·

      before my home course put millions into maintenance, we had a local rule used by the league that you could improve your lie. The course has dry spots of hard clay, no grass, unfilled divots in the fairway. Since the bunkers filled with rocks and other stuff and never raked, we were allowed to lift and place. The idea was going head to head in matches I want my opponent to have the best lie and shot opportunity. I dont want to win a match because my opponents fairway shot is buried in a divot. Now that the course is well maintained we dont have to rely on that rule as much.

      LIV Golf (Saudi PIF), "Mergers," and More

      By Elmer ·

      "Golf is often called a gentleman's game because of its emphasis on etiquette, sportsmanship, and respect for fellow players and the course. Golfers are expected to adhere to a code of conduct that includes honesty, integrity, and consideration for others on the course." it amazes me for the right number, how quickly people will forget human rights violations, compromise their integrity and virtues all in the name of "growing the sport" (which we know not to be true)
