New Driver?

[jnew47]

About how often do i need to get a new driver?  Also what drivers do yall think is best to buy right now?

Likely its about every 5 years, by that length of time, technology has been improved enough to justify a new one.  Personally I dont chase tech and tend to buy the previous year tech, since its usually 30-40% cheaper and usually not many real improvements.

Keep in mind golfers tend to chase every little bit of new tech hoping its the magic bullet, and the OEM's need to tweak their products just to justify a new line or model.  Case in point, TM now has white drivers,,does it actually improve preformance,,no,,does it make their product more identifiable as the latest and greatest,,yes.

Latest issue of Golf Digest has their 2012 hot list,,and best in class selections based on their panel for every type of club in your bag.  That would be a good place to start.

PS Also note that you used the word NEED for a new driver,,Wanting a new one is something else.
