Superquad if you want to tinker with the weight, Tour Burner is you want to BOMB it, and the Callaway is somewhere in between there. I would personally go with the Superquad, only because I would like to play around with the weights.

Overall: All very good drivers.

Good Luck

i really liked the burner when i was trying out drivers. i dont know enough about the weighting systems to fool around with those so i would go with the burner.

I vote for the FT-5 (or next year's FT-9). Get the I-Mix version if you want a little more versatility. Both are good clubs and you'll likely be happy with either.

Which one do you think I should get r7 superquad, Callaway Ft-5 or Taylormade Tour Burner.

I've played all three before. I would rule out the FT-5, it feels very hollow and not meaty compared to the Taylormade drivers. If you can get over that, it's a true bomber. My Tour Burner TP had the wrong shaft so I never hit a good drive with it. However, it felt solid. The Superquad is just a very solid and long driver. I never owned one but hit my friends many times. The black finish sure looks cool. I've reverted back to my r7 Quad because it felt so good at impact.

I have the r7 Quad and it is the best driver ive ever owned. It has such a good feel when striking the ball. My vote is for the r7 Quad

I couldn't recommend the Callaway because I've never hit it before, but I've had both the Superquad and the Tour Burner. I'd recommend the Tour Burner over the superquad only because it hit a little longer for me.

I have the Tour Burner and its a great club for me. An issue that some may have with it is that it is square as opposed to closed a degree or so. I'm not certain on the orientation of the other clubs...but if one doesn't release properly...one will have issues with losing balls out to the right.

Besides that...i enjoy the sub-460cc head and the stock shaft fits a wide range of swings.

That's what I'm having problems now with my burner. I'm thinking of getting the FTi from callaway, especially now it's reduced in pricing.

I can only speak on behalf of the R7. I had the superquad for almost a year and never did get to where I liked it. I have tried the other 2 in the stores on the monitor so it wouldn't be fair to give an assessment of those 2.

My issue with the R7 was it seemed to create too much spin. Left or right. The ball never held a straight line it was one way or the other. I see your handicap is a bit lower than mine so it may be something you like if your wanting to work the ball off the tee.

I had many long hits, as long as any other clubs I tried but again I couldn't control it even with making weight adjustments. I found a weight setup that I liked the best but it still got to the point where I was afraid to hit off the tee on tight holes. Only my opinion, to each is his own.

      So Does Anyone Know Who This Pat Simmons Is?

      By Haxo Angmark ·

      after some years experimenting around, I've settled on a mixed bag of mostly Pat Simmons vintage Tiger Sharks (the ones with the blue enamal on back of the clubheads): 3 thru 9 iron, + 3 wedges (PW, sand, chipper). Those super heavy clubheads really help me get my swing down and thru the ball. Also I carry an old Taylor 18-degree rescue club, 17-degree and 14 degree ImagineGolf metalwoods, and the famous Pat Simmons "alien" 1-iron. Finally a real brick-on-a-stick, the big-headed Bettinardi Ben Hogan model putter which is excellent for taking the break out of short putts and getting the ball hole high on long ones. Wait....is that 15 clubs? Oh well....

      Struggling With Fat Shots and Dont Know Why

      By Haxo Angmark ·

      this topic brought to mind one my favorite golf-spectator memories. Back when, living in Santa Barbara CA, parked in my yellow cab just behind the 10th tee  (c. 380 yard par 4) at SB Muni golf course while eating lunch. A twosome comes by, and first up is this fat little mexican guy who takes a kinda squirelly practice swing, then addresses the ball and bashes a long, high, perfectly straight drive up to w/in about 5 yards of the green. Other guy is dressed to the 9's, pulls out what looks like a $300 driver....and hits a maybe 150-yard pop fly. Slams clubhead to the ground and yells, "it's fat! It's fat! Everything is fat today!!"  And that's how I learned what a "fat" shot is.

      Jack vs. Tiger: Who's the Greatest Golfer?

      By billchao ·

      It may not be surprising that in the previous 7,064 posts, this particular point has been discussed. To which I will counter: If we're talking about results, why only the majors? Unless you know something that I don't, neither of us are in any position to judge whether Woods or Nicklaus lived their overall life better, not that such a thing is even objectively measurable, nor is it relevant to the discussion.
