TM R7 425, 10.5, neutral bias, RE-AX 65 shaft. Previously owned Ping G2 8.5 which i could bomb but such a wide varience was costing me shots... The R7 has 2 degrees more loft - i've given up a few yards but i can hit fairways now

Titleist 907D2 with UST Proforce 76 S. This club is pretty awesome. I love how it looks when you address the ball. That square look gives me a lot of confidence. I started out with the Ping Rapture. It is also a great club and has one of the nicest sounds of any driver I've heard, but I didn't like how it looked at address compared to the Titleist. In my limited experience, once you are comfortable with how it looks at address, it's ALL about the shaft.

First i used the Callaway Big Bertha Ti454, i pretty much loved this driver to death. I dont really know how to name the pros and cons, but one pro is that this driver could get some distance, and 1 con would be that mine coulda had a better shaft then the callaway one it came with.

Next is the Taylormade r7 460, i pretty much love this driver right now, its the best driver i've ever hit in my life. Pros can be : Distance,Distance, and more Distance. Adjustable Weights. Cons could be : Adjusting weights can be a hassle sometimes, Feels a little uncomfortable behind the huge head, but you get used to that.

Currently utilizing an Adams Tight Lies driver & for me it works pretty well.

Using a Krank 9* with a graman xd pro stiff shaft and swap off with a big bang, ust v2 force, reg. Depends on mood or current swing. Have tried almost all the name brands and except for the taylor superquad just don't like what you get the for the money. Don't ask how may drivers and putters are currently in the misbehaved barrel.

I am using the Taylor Made R7 425 with 10,5° and GD Purple Ice 85g Regular flex.

Before that I used a MacGregor M42 Eye-O-Matic with 11° an GD YS-6.
But I don't like the shape of the clubhead and the softness of the shaft.

I just switched from the Nike Sasquatch to the Cleveland HiBore XL.

I think I am glad I made the switch. I used to push the Nike to the right at times. The worst that has happened with the Cleveland is a little hook when I make a poor swing. When I make good contact, I beat the crap out of the ball. I get a nice draw out of it and it rolls a long way.

    • It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…
    • I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
