I play the Nike Sumo2 5900, really like it. Forgiving, plenty long. You can find it on Ebay now for less than $150. The square shape takes a little getting used to, but it sets up really well and I believe helps my alignment.

A few questions:

1. What is it about your current set that you would like to improve?
2. Have you tried entering your round data into one of the online sites that track the stats? I started putting in score, putts, and drives in the fairway, and found that it was my greens in regulation and scrambling (getting up and down if green missed in regulation) that was my biggest problem, not my driver length, etc.
3. You really don't have a sand wedge?

If you don't have a sand wedge, I would suggest getting at least something in the 54-56 deg range. It will not only help your sand play, but your short game as well.

Ahh...I see now...

I use this site: http://www.mobilegolfstats.com/

I was lucky in that I liked the Adams Speedline the best of all the drivers I hit, and, at the time, it also came with a free hybrid-fairway 3 wood, that I also liked a lot.

I'd recommend getting some quality wedges, most golfers use a wedge of some sort pretty often. Last years Nike model is very high quality and is selling very cheap right now at most stores. Nike released the victory red line of wedges this year, and the SV tour wedges are being sold at great deals. I bought a 50° (which I bent to 51°) Nike SV tour wedge for 50$ cdn just a few weeks ago and its become my favourite wedge.

Why would you get a 4 wood and 7 wood and still have a hybrid?
No offense, but if I were you I would hit the clubs you have until you really learn how to play and then invest in new clubs. You will save money and you will really appreciate a nice set when you are good enough to play them.
Too many people think new clubs will translate into better scores but do not take the time to work on their swing and course management. Not to imply that you fall into this category, but make sure you are getting clubs for the right reason.

Driver and distance

To improve your driver and distance you need to work on your short game. yes, the short game. if you practice chipping and pitching your are practicing the impact zone and this will ultimately improve your overall game including your driver and distance. The great thing about this is that you will also improve your short game while your are trying to improve your driver and distance. focus when chipping on making solid contact and once you have mastered that focus on distance control and finally direction. what you learn from chipping will translate into your driver swing. focus on your take away shaft position and the natural arc of your backswing
