I am looking for a new driver to help me hit a further distance. I have a swing speed of around 108mph. I want a driver that I can get the most distance but, still have a large sweet spot. Any suggestions?

Whats in the bag?

I'm in the market for a new driver as well. I'm new here, so I'll just sit back and read along. Not looking for extra distance, looking for fairways :grin:
thanks

Best advice I can give would be to go to your nearest pro shop and hit as many drivers as you can, see which one you like and hits the farthest... Anything else would just be our opinion and what we like...

Well if youre looking for more distance, I'd try the adams speedline. It's supposed to be more aerodynamic, so you can get a little more speed and a little more distance.

While we can give advice and opinions about drivers, irons, etc...the only person who knows whats best for you is you. You need to go to a golf store and get fit. You probably need a stiff shaft, but go hit a bunch of different drivers and see what gives you the best results. So long story short, get fit. Let us know what you hit well.

      I caught a video on this driver; the face tech seems crazy. Looking at the heat map for ball speed, hitting it basically anywhere on the face only loses a few percent ball speed. The surprising and counter intuitive part to me was that for flat faced clubs, ball speed loss is directly proportional to distance loss. For clubs with bulge and roll this is apparently not true. The surprising part of that story being that the max distance potential looks to be a tiny pee sized area for this driver, and I feel in general for drivers. The counter intuitive part being (the myth?) that blade irons have a pee sized sweet spot and missing that tiny spot causes dramatic losses. And that modern drivers, maybe 2017 on, have massive sweet spots and are ultra forgiving. Where in reality, if this heat map data is valid and reliable, it might be a bit of the opposite. This insane tech driver appears to have a pea sized "sweet spot" while Mizuno Pro 241 irons are 28% more forgiving compared to the average of all clubs measured. Not compared to other players irons, compared to all clubs from all categories, players to SGI! The Pro 241 being essentially just a solid chunk of metal with no "tech" at all. Which for me devolves into a whole mess of what is forgiveness really? And in measurable and quantifiable results how many yards, or feet, does that translate into?
