Driver Suggestions

[zdoor]

Currently playing a Ping G5 with Aldilla X-Stiff shaft and have also played a Callaway FT-9 with a Diamana X-Stiff shaft. Hit the G5 better than the FT-9, might be because I've hit it for a longer period of time but just can't get used to the sound or feel of the Ft-9. I think I also get a little more length out of the G5 although it's not much of a difference. Anyways, looking at new drivers and seeking some suggestions. I'm a fairly long hitter although I won't claim a 300 average, I am safely 250-260 on most drives. My natural swing is a slight fade but can draw it on occasion. According to the stats from my Sky Caddie I average about 80% or so on fairways hit. Want something that can be worked but I'm not usually trying to turn driver so much unless I have to because of the hole. Thoughts??

FT-Tour popped to mind, but it has a typical Callaway type feel to it, so not sure if you'd like it.

Other thought was i15. It's fade biased, but if you're hitting 80% of fairways I can't see where it would be a big issue.

It's largely a matter of how much money you want to spend. I like the G5 a lot and it's hard to improve on but the G15 is a much better driver. For me it was a choice between the G15 and the Callaway Diablo and I went with the Callaway based strictly on price. I'm inclined to recommend the G15 but chilly's recommendation of the I15 is a good one too. Ping also just introduced the K15 so you might want to give it a try if there are any available for demo.

Thanks for the suggestions. There is a shop within 20 miles or so that has some demo clubs available so I was planning to try the 2 new Ping Drivers and will also give the Diablo a try. I play Diablo Forged Irons and love them. I didn't really dislike the FT-9 it's just I like the G5 a little better in terms of sound and feel. If there are anyother suggestions on clubs I should hit, keep them coming...
