 Great Driver! September 23, 2009

I have used this driver for two seasons. My golf buddies are envious of me as I consistantly hit straight drives down the middle of the fairway - no fade, no slice. I'm thinking of buying a backup.

I have a 14 degree model of this driver, and i just ordered a 12 degree because i drive better with my forgan than my nike sq sumo 5000 9.5* loft. the reason is probably that the 14* loft puts tremendous backspin on the ball and straightens out the shot. but for 40 dollars it is an outstanding club i can carry 250 no problem with it and ive abused it learning to golf with no problems. one more thing about this driver you can do a cool trick i saw on the golf channel where you balance it upside down on a wedge and then you balance a golf ball on the driver head. the shape of the driver makes it very easy.
a great driver for the average golfer June 29, 2009

Really, I need to give this driver 2 different ratings depending on your ability.
If you're the average weekend golfer that can't break 90 (taking all penalties and no mulligans) and hits an average drive of 240 yards or less (be honest with yourself now), then this is an excellent driver. Especially for the price. The driver has a big head that instills confidence at the tee. It hits very straight and will carry 230 with an easy smooth swing. I was driving further and straighter than most people with name brand drivers. The shape makes it very forgiving on off-center hits.
On the other hand, as my game improved, I started finding the limitations of this club. It's not as light as my new TM Burner, which allows me to swing faster and hit further by a good 20-30 yards (only if you have the skill to do this). However, I'm also giving up some control. Still, the extra distance is definitely very nice. I also bought previous year's model, making the cost of the burner only $130 and therefore, much more reasonable.
In conclusion, I wouldn't recommend anyone spending more than $150 on a driver. If you're the average weekend golfer, this driver is more than enough and quite a steal at $30 (4.5 stars). You probably won't notice a difference between this and a Taylormade or Callaway. If you're shooting in the 80's consistently, then you'll probably want a name brand driver that you can take advantage of. Though if you have trouble with controlling your drives or you don't hit very long, this still isn't a bad choice for $30 (3.5 stars).

I'm a weekend golfer, so when my used Tour Edge driver I bought for 15 bucks broke (terribly sad day), I wasn't looking to break the bank on a new driver (not that I have much bank to break... lol).
This was the club I settled on, and so far it seems like a great investment. If you have a good swing, your drives will go straight and true and carry well enough. I'm a big guy, so I've never had a problem generating power... I can get this club up into the 270 yard range, push higher than that on a good swing, and straight as an arrow (sometimes a little fade). This is just as far as I ever got my Tour Edge driver, which retailed for over 200 when it was new.
I'm deducting a star because the lacquer finish on the shaft was already chipping a bit out of the box, which was just kind of annoying (I like to keep my clubs clean).
BOTTOM LINE: FOR [...] BUCKS, YOU CAN'T GO WRONG.

This was bought as a Christmas gift for my Mom in PA. Needless to say, she hasn't used it yet, but she did like it. Having a headcover is a nice touch! She can't wait to use it (as soon as the snow stops!). As far as ordering, the order went through easily, the product came quickly, and I was offered a free subscription to a golfing magazine. I thought that was nice--I hope that comes through (still too early for my first edition to arrive). Sure couldn't beat the price--and the quality seems good. Great for the occasional/weekly golfer who doesn't want to invest a lot of cash into clubs!
