I'm new to golf this summer, after lots of playing my scores are starting to come down to low 90's upper 80's and I'm  about to purchase a new driver. Ive narrowed my choices down to the Adams Speedline 9088 UL Driver and the Taylor Made Burner 2.0. I think the obvious choice for the seasoned golfer would be the TM but I've heard good things about the speed line and heard it's easier to hit. Any one play with either one? Any comments on either?

Note--- sorry that asking for help is my first post!

First off, kudos for scoring in the 80's after just picking up the game.

What driver are you playing now,  and what lead you to narrow it down to the two you're looking at?    I selected a new  (used)  driver based on a brand I was comfortable with from years of playing etc....  but in the early years it was all about going to places that I could hit them out on a range,  or taking them for a test-run at my local club.

    • Could course committee have an MLR option to declare this bunker GUR? 
    • Sorry, I will disagree. You got a penalty because you hit it somewhere and didn't want to play it from there. Bunkers are not the general area. If you had hit it into temporary water in the general area, you'd be entitled to relief. You hit it into a hazard, a bunker. Why should you get free relief when you hit it into a bunker? If someone else hit it into a different part of the bunker, without water, they'd not get a drop for free out of the bunker. Heck, it'd cost them two strokes if they didn't have an ACC and wanted to drop it out of the bunker.
    • I love golf, but we have some really dumb rules. Like this one, you get a penalty stroke because it rained. 
    • No. If there was a place no closer to the hole that afforded some relief, you could have dropped there. If you were truly as far away from the hole as you could, in the "back" of the bunker, then… your options were basically to play it as it lies (lied? lay?) or take the penalty stroke and drop behind the bunker (keeping the point where the ball was between your drop and the hole).
    • Day 121 - Had a tournament today, not my best. I was hitting everything off the heel.
