I'm in the market for a new driver and I'm kind of up in the air on which to get. I have always been partial to TaylorMade, but I here Ping has got some really good stuff
I'm looking at TaylorMades new Burner Driver. I went to that store Golfsmith the other day, and they have the indor driving range with the cameras and stuff, and I drove 305yds with it! Then this past weekend I went golfing and one of the guys I got paired up with let me use his TaylorMade r7 CGB Max Driver and that puppy was sweet!
Any feedback anyone? Thanks!!

btw.....the most important thing about the driver is the shaft, so find the one that fits your swing speed.
For sure! My current Driver (Cleveland) has a regular shaft and it flexs like a rubber band! The r7 I hit with the other day had an extra-stiff shaft and I love it.
When I was at Golfsmith, I don't know if it was my club speed or my ball speed, but it was clocked @ 96mph!

The Taylor Made burner with a great shaft will surely be a great match up. Since the new r7 CGB just came out the price of the burner dropped so, it's better for the pocket book lol.

been playing mizunos for a while. i tried the r7's i couldnt hit that for shiet. my advice is go to your local shops demo day. they usually let you hit various drivers and offer big discounts
Ping rapture (forgiving driver with a loud bang)
ping g10 (just like the ping g5 except updated version)
taylor made r7 super quad (for better players, very similar to the previous r7/r5 heads)
taylor made burner (forgiving with a large face)
callaway ft-i (if you like a square driver)
i got a TaylorMade driver 4 sale, only used on the range about 5 times, $60 shipped, i know your lookin at a new driver, but just thought id throw it up!

I've heard good things about the TaylorMade r7 Super Quad, but I don't think I'm good enough to justify a $500+ driver! The TaylorMade Burner is on sale for $279.99.

Mitsubishi Diamana Blueboard or for a stiffer tip get a white board 63-X or S
or
Fujuikura Speeder
you need to get on a launch monitor to get your launch numbers (Club head speed, Ball speed, launch angle and spin) before you get a shaft, you'll save yourself a headache and whole bunch of money.

No worries, gl on the new driver, i just went out yesterday for the 1st time in 3 months, shot a 94 , but of course the longest hole on the course 577yrds, i birdie, so the saying about golf is standing true, (Theres always 1 shot that keeps u comming back)
