I like the SLDR but my experience with the SLDR-S was horrible. Everything went right but when I went to the demo day and tried the white SLDR - It was good but I was kinda bummed only carrying 250 downhill with a big tailwind. 

 

The only thing that could knock out my Touredge at this point is another Touredge. Was even thinking of getting the beta 7 and selling my XCG7. I'm acutally using the beta's shaft in my XCG7 right now

I will say this........I haven't hit a 2015 driver that can get close to my SLDR, except for the R15, which was 6yds shorter on the average.  I haven't hit the Fly-Z or Vapors yet though.

Have you tried the G30 LS Tec by any chance?

Srixon Z545/Black Tie 6M3 has been pounding it for me. Just a couple that come to mind to try for you.

I have not; I've only hit the G-30 and it was horrible for me, but not as bad as the 915 and all of Callys offerings.  I have a feeling that Fly-Z + will kick the SLDR out of the bag.

I'm about to go for a G30 fitting soon. Hoping to try both head variants.

Curious: how'd the G25 fare for you?

Gotcha. Yeah, I have an Anser as well and I know the lower spin nets me a good 15 yards on perfect swings over my G25. Controllable yards? Not always. Too low spin I find hard to control. I suspect I'll probably fit into the G30 over the LS Tec version. But this is an example of why I like to test clubs on the course too, versus LM's. "Perfect" on a LM isn't always that out on the course.

Here's a question, is anyone on tour still hitting the SLDR?  I think Hahn was but he's about the only one if in fact it was. 

 

I'm with Bones, I love mine, I'm also curious about the SLDS - That was the demo model that they gave me to play with on Friday - I hated the thing.

Taylor Made Stealth 2 10.5 Diamana S plus 60  Aldila  R flex   - 42.25 inches 

SMT 4 wood bassara R flex, four wood head, 3 wood shaft

Ping G410 7, 9 wood  Alta 65 R flex

Srixon ZX5 MK II  5-GW - UST recoil Dart 65 R flex

India 52,56 (60 pending)  UST recoil 75's R flex  

Evon roll ER 5 32 inches

It's our offseason so auditioning candidates - looking for that right mix of low spin long, more spin around the greens - TBD

I think there are a few guys still gaming it.

 

I also hit the SLDR-S and did not like it at all.
