Got a Superquad and love it. Never thought I'd be a fan of the moveable weight system but it really gave me that last little tweak that has allowed me to consistently work my tee shots when needed.

I am currently using a Ping Rapture with Grafalloy Red X Flex, great club very long and great feel. At the end of the day though all the top club makers use similar technology they just call it different names. Pick the club you like the look of and get a suitable shaft.

I've got a Taylormade R7 460 and I really love it. If you hit it good it's a 'stripe'. Any other driver I tried had a slightly different direction, little right or little left. This one went straight for me and far. No regrets: just really great drives.
But when I don't have my day: i just slice it way out of bounce sometimes (but that's me...)

Swinging a TM 460 superquad 8.5* with the stock fujikara stiff shaft. I haven't played with the weights cause the few rounds i have played with it in the nuetral setting i've hit it pretty good. Mid-boring ball flight.

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

Ok, well I just thought I'd update this... I'm still using the Burner but I added a Aldila Proto by you stiff shaft...:) Hope this helps me keep the ball from ballooning like it did with the stock Fujicrapa shaft.

I'm still using the old TM R580XD. I hit it longer and straighter than any other driver I've ever hit. Of course, I haven't hit any of the new drivers because I know that I would fall in love and then have to explain to my wife why I need to spend $400 on a new driver.

Never up, Never in!

oh tell me about it

I've had the same driver since 04ish I believe and same irons for quite sometime now... I haven't had the heart to break it to the wife, I'll be needing to drop 2g's on all new golfing equipment after this season... Maybe we'll win the lotto and I won't have to. Although my equipment is still getting the job done, I really have had my eye on the r7 tp irons, I've hit them once and I really loved em... Maybe next year.

I just got myself a Ping G10 Draw w/ a Graffaloy Prolaunch Red -Stiff shaft. I came from a Callaway FT-I draw also had the same shaft. Boy, what a huge difference! The Ping out-performs my FT-I in all categories. Mostly distance. Granted ive only hit the ping for 2 rounds, but have hit 3 300+ drives and a number of 280+ in the 2 rounds. I can shape shots more easily with the ping vs. the ft-i too. I'm very happy with the purchase and plan on enjoying seeing the ball fly!

What's in my Premium stand bag:

. . .I use the TM Superquad, 9.5 stiff. My buddy had a 10.5 I tried last year and really smoked the ball. Got a 9.5 because the launch monitor suggested that I could use a little lower trajectory. . .Now I seem to be shorter off the T and am scratching my head!

. . ."Commit to each shot. . .and believe"!!

Mizuno MX-500. I got it last summer, but just got it re-shafted with an ETA Penley Tour X-stiff shaft a couple weeks ago. The new shaft has helped alot, but overall it hits pretty well.
