These are the two drivers that I use the most often when playing ( I have the XLS sitting in the closest). Both drivers are very similar, and have similar specs. I'm curious as to which of you guys would chose one of these over the other. I just had the r7 re shafted so I'm excited to see if it'll make a difference.

In the bag:
Driver: r7 quad v2 stiff
3-Wood: XLS
Hybrid: X
Irons: CG Golds 3-GWSW: x forged 56/13LW: Vokey sm 60/.08Putter: Callie 35''Ball: pro v1

I personally would play the 905 because it has a nice feel to it and I am a titleist fan.

Yeah it's weird, I want to like the 905 more, but I don't hit it well on the course. On the range I've hit it really well though. Since I just made the investment in reshafting/gripping the r7 it's going to be in the bag for now I think.

I voted for the 905. I know two kids who have it, and I've hit it before and I just love the feel of them. I'm actually thinking of getting either the 905r, the 907d1, or (if they get cheaper by the end of this spring) the 909d2.

Yeah it has a nice feel to it, and a nice sound to IMO, especially compared to my XLS...

Yea, I really like the 905, but you can't go wrong with a Taylormade driver either. I think the 905R is one of the better drivers titleist has ever made. A lot of tour pros still play it even thogh titleist has come out with two new models since.

905R 9.5 degree w/ Graphite Design YS-6+ reg.
906F4 15.5 degree w/ Graphite Design YS-6+ reg.

I would take both clubs to the local golf store and test out a competitive driver along with your r7 quad and 905r and see what looks the best on paper with the launch monitor then double check it at the driving range.

Titleist 910 D2 9.5 Driver
Titleist 910 F15 & 21 degree fairway wood
Titleist 910 hybrid 24 degree
Mizuno Mp33 5 - PW

      New Maxfli Forged Irons - $800!

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      Has anyone played the new Maxfli forged irons? For the first time in I don't know how many years, they have come out with new clubs. From what I read, Maxfli was bought by Taylor Made a long time ago which then took all of their ball making technology and patents in order to get into that market. The club business was left to whither and the reorganized company, now a part of Dicks / Golfworks / Maltby, is producing these new clubs. (Their Tour X balls which I play are really good.) Anyway, I tried them both out at Golf Galaxy. There's a player's distance iron (XC-3) and a blade (XC-2) and both feel really, really nice, almost "Mizuno-like" in their soft buttery feel and they're a bargain at $800 for a set. I'm planning to ditch my Titleist's and want to go back to a forged iron. I almost pulled the trigger on the Mizuno Pro-245's last summer, but a damaged tendon sheath in my finger combined with a back injury messed up my golf game so I held off. Now the Pro-245's are no longer available, soon to be replaced by the MX-15. (At twice the price of the Maxfli's...that's what got my attention in the first place.) If anyone has played with the new Maxfli's or just tried them out like I did, let me know what you think.
