Which driver do you use?

[bballglf23]

I had been recommended the burner but for the extra cost i was looking at the cheaper r7 425 (as my wife's buying it as a Christmas present so will go crazy if i was looking at a circa £200 club - the r7 425 is only £129 at the moment).

The 425 is awesome!! But i would go check all of them out at the pro shop and find which is best for you

I will always live and die by the R7 425 driver from Taylormade. It's the only driver I've been able to hit consistently in terms of distance, feel, control and playability. Better than Callaway, Nike, Ping and all others. Funny thing, even tour pros that don't endorse other companies use Taylormade drivers.

Titleist 907D1, 10.5º regular flex 4175 shaft.

Pro: Easy to hit, much more forgiving of off centre hits than the 983K.
Con: Loud (but not as loud as the Nike/Callaway offerings)

Cleveland HiBore 10.5*

I know it's not ultra-popular, but it works well for me, it's miles better than the hunk of junk that came with my set of clubs, and I got a great deal on it. Plus it's got an addictive sound.

thanks for the advice. Is the 425 head noticeably smaller than the 460?

I know people recommend going to a fitter but i've been to around 4 shops and they all only sell the latest models which are obviously far more than i'd want to spend at this time. With the great offers on the r7 425 i was hoping that it's be a good buy to start me off.

I use a GEEK dot com this 10.5* with an accuflex acculaunch stiff shaft gr8 ball flight

I was reading from other posts that the 460 sometimes have loose particles in the head that rattle. Is that something that others have heard or experienced? Also...as I posted on another forum string...I am also trying to figure out whether to get a 425 or 460.

I use the Tour Edge Exotics 9 degree driver with stiff Grafalloy Blue shaft. By far the best driver I've ever hit and is 15 yards longer than my old TM 425 TP.

I use the Hi-Bore from 2006 with the Pro Launch Blue, I got it really cheap from a friend and it was an upgrade from my last driver but, it was the wrong shaft for my swing.

i currently have a Titleist 907D2 w/ ProForce v2 76g stiff flex in the bag. for me it is a fairway hitting machine. i also love the lower penetrating ball flight it gives me.

I still love my Titleist 975-D. When it was new, it was HUGE, now it is small by comparison. The new drivers today look like a basket ball on a stick. I hate the way they look, how they setup, and how they "resist" the air as I swing them. The trend will settle down, and smaller driver heads will be back, just like "Bell Bottoms".......

TM Burner 9.5
It's a missile launcher. Absolutely not argument to it. The only downside to me is the draw bias. I didn't notice it when I was demoing it but it shows on the course.

I have a 905T 9.5 but just received a Burner 9.5 that I'm anxious as all hell to try!

[powertrip240]

I just picked up a Cleveland Launcher 460Ti Offset. It has helped alot in fixing my slice. It has turned it into a very controllable fade.

I love my Taylormade Burner. On my occasional mis-hit I still get good distance.

Pros:
Great Feel
Easy workability
Extra distance

Cons:
I cant out drive Tiger!!!!

Adams RPM-it's old, but does the job well.

[live2golf]

I bought a Callaway FT-5 this past summer and love it. I had a Titleist 983K before. I now carry the ball as far as I used to hit it (including roll).

It's also much more forgiving, but let's be honest about this - it's several years newer and is much larger at 460cc while the Titleist was around 380cc (I think).

[r7 425]

I have the r7 425................but check this out---the longest driver ever made was the titleist 983K....I swear that thing is juiced
