TaylorMade Taylite 39205 Stand Bag

Advantages: Easy to use, good looks
Disadvantages: Can be pricey - shop around

...The secret to this driver is the Taylor Made Launch Control system which is effectively 4 little screw-in weights (2 x 10 grammes and 2 x 5 grammes) that reside in the back of the club. Based on the way the 4 weights are distributed around the back of the club will determine the shape of your shot. The beast comes with a custom wrench to unscrew the weights and a handy 'wheel' that shows you the best positions for the weights based on your swing and ability. I have always been the kind of gut that takes a 3 Wood off the tee as my driving was always a little wayward to say the least. My game had evolved and my ability increased to the point that I needed a little extra off the tee. Last year I had the opportunity to buy the R7 and since I picked it up my driving has improved considerably. Now we all see the adverts that this driver... Read review

Advantages: Hits the golf ball both longer and straighter
Disadvantages: There is a question about its legality.

...wouldn’t be qualified to answer that question, and leave it to the respective governing bodies to sort out the mess between them. What I do know is that having tested out this club over a number of rounds I would agree completely with the test findings. It DOES hit the golf ball both further and straighter than any other driver I have ever used, and that includes its “legal” competitors from the likes of Taylor Made and Ping. ~ ~ But at a cost of about £500 (Sterling, it’s nearer £650 Irish Punts!) it won’t be going into my golf bag until they come up with a definitive answer as to its legality or otherwise.

Advantages: I maybe saving you some time
Disadvantages: They don't exist

..., King Cobra SZ drivers offers a large and powerful sweet spot for greater ball speed. Cobra Say, 'Don't just hit the ball, launch it.' Cobra Also offer a range of Irons, Wedges and Putters. Sizes are available for Juniors, ladies and men. Custom fitting is also available for the golfer who wants to get the best from his investment. As far as I am concerned Cobra in the second band of good golf Manufacturers. Behind the likes of Titleist, Nike and Taylor Made. However they have made great advances of the last few years and I fully expect more and more pros to be using the clubs of Cobra. Unfortunately, for the time being anyway, no-one will be using Cobra balls. And as such my ratings are impossible to give. I shall say average for all.... Read review
