1. Nike Str8 Fit Dymo 2
2. Callaway FT-iq

These are by far the best, but I would probably go with the nike straight fit because you can change things up some more and it's cheaper.

In my Grom:
R9 460 Aldila RE-AX 60g Stiff
07' Burner 3 Wood Stiff
09' Rescue 2 and 4 Stiff
09' Burner 3-PW Superfast 85 Stiff 09' Vokey Spin Milled Black Nickel and Oil Can Wedges 50,54,60SeeMore Putter Pro V1 2.0 SG 2.5

Like said above, it isnt your club.
Best idea is to go get some lessons then think about getting a new driver or something.
Just my 2cents.

In my Xtreme Sport bag
'09 Burner 9.5*
F50 15* 3 Wood
Burner 18* 5 Wood
MX-19 4-GW SV Tour 54.12 & 58.08 White Hot 2-Ball SRT

I'd look into the Nike Sumo 5000 or 5900. Usually the more square the club the more forgiving it's suppose to be.

Sumo 10.5*
R7 Draw 15* 3W
3dx 17* 2H
Pi5 3-PW
Spin Milled Vokey 54* CG11 60* C-01

I would say a club with a 46 inch shaft or whatever they are, would be the exact opposite of what he wants.

Have you ever hit one?

Working on your swing would be better than any driver change.

Cutting your driver down an inch can do you wonders. I cut my down to 44.5" and I've been pretty consistent with accuarcy - the driver's always been the most consistent and straightest club in my bag, shockingly.

Driver Ping G10 10.5*
Hybrids Ping G5 (3) 19* Bridgestone J36 (4) 22*
Irons Mizuno MP-57 5-PW
Wedges Srixon WG-504 52.08 Bridgestone WC Copper 56.13
Putter 33" Scotty Cameron Studio Select #2

The Burners shaft is long, but it is also very light.... my 09 is only 49 grams.... Which means you can pretty much swing your socks off and not still not hit a slice. So if slicin' is your problem...

Slicing ain't the problem it's mainly hooks, with the occasional block.

I always thought that the square heads resulted in a straighter ball flight if swung correctly? When I am unintentionally seeing fades/draws (read: "slices/hooks") I find choking up on my grip helps me get back in control with the big stick...
