I want to change my driver, any thoughts?

The driver in my sig is both forgiving and customizable, but it looks like a traditional driver. No alignment mark or anything, just a traditional black look. And the feel is 1000x better than the old nikes. Try it out. Stay away from the square one though, I hit it and was not a fan.

Try some of the older nike drivers, they're meant to be pretty good.

Try the cobra S2 aswell while your at it.

If you can find a place to demo any of the alpha line i would strongly recomend it....I play the Alpha C830.2 and it is the best I have ever hit low spin rate and good launch angle...worth a shot

Ok, so it looks like the Ping G series and the Cobra S2 are the favorites. I have been really busy lately and still haven't been able to go test anything out yet, but that will change in a week or so. For whatever reason (purely mental I know) I really have a lot of trouble hitting the square drivers with any consistency. I have also used a 'traditional' looking driver with the 'pear shape' and everything else just feels incredibly odd at set up.

For an earlier poster, my handicap is technically still 1.4, but is probably closer to a 6 or 7 right now. I have only played 4 rounds this year (78, 74, 79, 78) and I haven't updated my index yet this year. Driver is the club I always have the most trouble with and I know the range is the only true way to correct it, but it would nice to play something that is going to be less penalizing on a miss hit.

if you want forgiveness get a Cobra L5V, biggest hitting face out of any driver. You won't hit it far but it's pretty hard to mis-hit
