TaylorMade Taylor Made 300 Series Grip

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: Hits the ball a VERY long way. Keeps the ball straight.
Disadvantages: Not a solitary thing.

...-light graphite shaft weighing only 70 grams, and I believe you have almost the perfect golf club. ~ ~ There are various different shaft options and loft options to suit the individual golfer. For a golfer with a very fast swing speed, you can opt for a club with only 7.5 degrees of loft, and with a very stiff shaft. For a older or less strong golfer, the better option would be a “regular” shaft (whippier) with more loft; up to 12 degrees which will get the golf ball airborne more quickly. ~ ~ Now for the really good news. The price. When the R540 first hit the market back in 2003, the price here in Ireland was a mind boggling €499. (Over £300 Sterling) I bought my R540 in McGuirks, a local Irish golfing superstore, for only €140! Why the huge drop in price, you might well ask? It’s because TaylorMade have now released an even newer version... Read review

Advantages: Fantastic feel and a great roll
Disadvantages: None

...What makes any putter different from another? They are all used on the green to roll the ball into the hole aren't they? Well this range is a little different... The Taylor Made Nubbins range of putters is very distinctive in looks. They have an orange rubber insert covering the clubface (where you hit the ball) that has little 'nubs' protruding from it (a bit like lego!!). The idea behind this is that when the putter strikes the golf ball, the ball is gripped by the nubs which are incredibly soft, stays on the putter face for longer than a normal putter and then makes the ball roll much quicker after impact. This action reduces any skidding that may normally occur and promotes a great feel and roll on the green thus producing a good putt. Surprisingly the technology actually works!! These putters feel very soft and the roll of the ball... Read review
