What's wrong with the current driver?

You mentioned in another thread that you hit it only a few times per round. With your distance, I'm not surprised, since on some courses there might not be any place for that to land. If it isn't betraying you, why not keep it? If you were hitting it 14 times a round and it were ruining your score, I'd understand getting a new one. But change for the sake of change in your clubs I don't understand.

I agree that if your current driver is working well you should consider sticking with it, but here are a few I'm going to try since I don't actually own a driver at this time (I sold mine after this past season because I didn't like it anymore).

Cleveland Hibore XLS (Comes out Feb.)
Nike Sumo 5000
Cobra Speed LD
Taylormade Burner and Superquad
Ping G10
Titleist 907 D1 & D2

I'm currently using a demo that the course I work at owns, and I like it, but it's not mine and it's pretty beat up from so many people using it.

Give those a try, and actually let me know if you do and how you like them!

Good luck,
Ryan

I have recently brought the 907D2 in a 9.5. the best driver i have hit and very accurate as well. But i'd recommend going to your pro and asking his advice on what head and then what shaft will fit your needs.

My oppinion on a driver for you since you are a very low handi is a 907 d2 or a cobra speed pro (which I hit) but more importantly is the shaft I think that the shaft half the battle cobra has the alida vs proto in the speed pro which is an awesome shaft and titleist has very good aftermarket shafts aswell

    • Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.
    • As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
