Dunlop Big D Driver

Advantages: eliminates high right
Disadvantages: costy

...Having suffered for the last couple of years with the classic "big-right" shot and having put the pro through many strenous unsuccessful lessons i decided that having spent as much on lessons as a new top of the range club would cost i decided that now was to fork out the price of these lessons again and to buy a new driver to try to eliminate this ever growing problem preventing me from decreasing to the single figures which i knew i deserved. naturally when i was looking in the market i was drawn in by the titleist 975D driver as its promise to eliminate thew "high right" shot from your game. Naturally when i first found out that it had not eliminate it from my game i was very dissapointed and was on the edge of giving the game up. However my pro said that i should stick at it and amazingly within a few rounds my slice became... Read review

Advantages: great to use
Disadvantages: bit pricy

...The 975D is the sort of driver that everyone should have as it makes the most impressive sound on impact of any driver I have ever heard. Apart from that though, how does it fair against other Drivers on the market - such as the Callaway ERCII or the Taylor Made 300 series? Actually it does remarkably well. I use the 8 degree Driver and find that the ball flight is very good and am now hitting the ball straighter than I ever had. The distance off the tee is very useful and also the ability to shape shots is good as it can sometimes be hard to do this with a driver but easy with this club. I work in a pro shop so know a lot about this sort of thing - take my word for it this is a great club (bit pricy though!)... Read review

Advantages: Superb distance, very forgiving and an absolute bargain
Disadvantages: Not flashy, or the latest model.

...a low trajectory (as I tend to hit lower punched shots), but it's far from the case. The ball flies at a very satisfactory height. The shaft is made from graphite and the stiff shaft serves me very well, although I am quite a big guy. There's some flex in it, but it never feels whippy enough to be out of control. The grip is nice, if not spectacular, but I've never felt it slipping even in damper conditions. When my brother saw one on sale, he bought one too, and he really likes it too. It may have a tendency to get a bit scratched, but nothing that affects the shots, and for a bargain of £100, I really can't recommend it enough. Don't bother spending £200+ on another driver just because it's the newer model. It's also worth noting that it conforms to the new regulations with regards to club head size that will be introduced in 2008... Read review
