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


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.

i voted for the r7 quad, i guess because that what i use and my buddy hits with the 905 r and ive hit it before and for some reason i just dont like the way it feels.

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.
