Hi I am looking to get a new driver as have had my Cobra L5v for a few years now. I drive it about 220 yards with a slight fade so am looking for a longer and straighter driver to lower my handicap. My budget is around £150. Thanks for any replies!

I don't know what 150 is in American dollars but ill say this normally where people post what driver is the best because that is what they are playing. I will give you a couple drivers that are a year old and great. -Cleveland 290(460cc) or 310(440cc) if you can find one with an upgraded shaft this is a top notch driver -Adams Fast 12 LS, stock Fubuki or a Black tie and they are the real deal not made for, need I say more -Cobra ZL Encore this is the driver I play and it's a few years old but I still think its the best driver out there, plus a stock real deal Motore is a bonus Those 3 all have real deal, (Classic 310 is a Kullusa 61)not made for shafts which is always a plus

Since your price point is a little lower I presume, I think getting an older model used off eBay would work great for you.  I like the Nike VR_Pro Limited Edition.

If you think Nike makes bad drivers, and want to stay with Cobra.  The first model of the Cobra AMP is cheap, and honestly a great driver with adjustability.

Cobra AMP is a great deal right now on ebay new $130-$150 new. I have had both the adjustable and the offset that I play now. I can tell you that no matter how i hit the ball I am in play 9 out 0f 10 times. I do not hit it far 260 maybe 280 plus with roll if I get lucky and nut it  but what it has done is keep me out of the trees and in the fairways.

It may not be the longest driver on the market but there are a few on this site that use them, all seem very happy with the performace and price..

    • I mean there has to be some thought. For eg., something like 'soft knees and wrists' at set up and maybe a dynamic 'left arm to chin' as a trigger to start DS. I have these one or two anchor thoughts and have served me well. In fact, my wildest swings are the one where I have no thoughts or if I forget to walk thru my anchor thoughts. In contrast my best rounds are where I am consistent with the anchor thoughts.    OTOH, if I am running my entire half hour lesson (hypothetical) with some pro that I had last Saturday or whatever before every swing then I'm probably in trouble before I even get over the ball.      
    • Two bits. Bit 1 The NCAA's appeal of Brendan Sorsby being granted a temporary injunction will not be heard until February, so there will be nothing to prevent Sorsby from playing the full season and potential CFP.  Bit 2 The Big Ten Conference will hold a meeting and is expected to ban all of its athletic programs from playing Texas Tech in the regular season. Georgia has done the same. The SEC will meet to consider a similar ban. Fellow Big 12 members TCU and Kansas State are spearheading a similar ban, but the conference charter might not allow it. Meanwhile, Big 12 athletic directors are meeting this week to explore what options the conference might have.
    • No, but I'm also in disagreement that golfers have no thoughts over the golf ball, and/or don't ever think I've met someone I truly believe is thinking nothing but "target" or something on most shots.
    • StuM,  I have, in the past, added a left handed club. (Ususally a 7 iron) However, I usually take a stroke penalty and move the ball to where I want it.  I play for fun and in a pinch can use theback side if my club if I don't want the penalty stroke.    RetiredOldMan,  Terry
