Hey everyone,

Im new here to thesandtrap.com and am in the market for a new driver! I am using a 09' Cleveland Launcher, which is a great driver, but its not giving me the playability i am looking for. Any suggestions? Titelist D2? R11? Adams Speedline?

What is the "playabilty" you are looking for? Higher or Lower Flight?  Hooking or Slicing? More Distance? MoreConsistent?

Must know what ails you,before we can make it better.Specs on old driver would be a big help!

When i mean playability, i mean that i want to be able to play draws/cuts more easily. My old drivers have 10.5 degrees of loft and and regular stock shaft

Plenty of playability in that driver.

A new driver will not make any difference at all.  The "playability" comes down to you.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

    • Shot a six over par  41. Kind of one of those rounds work off is stupid. I had only two flushed shots the entire nine holes. One was a T-ball that ended up pretty good. The other was a six iron on hole nine a par 3. But the sixth iron ended up being a pulll draw that ended up about 25 yards left of the green. 
    • Day 283 - 2025-07-10 Got some work in while waiting for someone to show up for a GEARS lesson (they did not, and haven't reached out in 24 hours, so I'm getting a bit worried). Also recorded a video for @saevel25.
    • I agree. Personally, I've been watching the LPGA for a couple decades. My wife and I attended the US Women's Open in Edina, MN way back in 2008.  Two comments:  1 - I also enjoy another women's sport; Softball. The College Softball World Series is a big event in our household. Interestingly, my niece plays softball and my nephew plays baseball. Often we go watch them both play the same weekend. Both games will have the same start time. I have to say I enjoy the softball more than the baseball. The women are on a 20 second pitch clock. Yeah, you read that right 20 seconds. Plus, the players stand in the dugout the entire game and sing and/or chant stuff the whole time. Tons of energy. The game moves along at a fast pace. We often watch my niece's entire game and then go over to watch my nephew and they are in the 3rd inning. The baseball seems to move at a crawl after coming over from the softball game.  2 - My daughter and I have taken to watching the youtube channel "The Golf Girl Games". Great content. Very entertaining. If you haven't watched them yet, I recommend them. 
    • It's not too far off, Scott. You can probably let the arms go up earlier in the backswing so the change of direction isn't quite so dramatic.
