Justin H Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 With the recent run of driver testing contests (yes, I've applied for them all), I'm curious - how many of you out there play a driver more than a few generations old? For instance, I'm playing a Cobra HS9 X. Which is about a decade old. Crazy, I know. But every time I drag it to a launch monitor, it equals or exceeds the numbers of the newer sticks. Which is all the more reason I'm curious about the current driver reviews out there, especially the Mizuno and Nike. I'd like the time to get a new one in the course and see if it's worth putting in my bag. So, long story short, are there any other tech holdouts out there?

Undershooter Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 I keep ending up with my Cally Razr Fit Xtreme. I think it was a 2012 driver although I didn't get it until 2014. I've tried many times to knock it out of the bag but to no avail. The closest I came were a TI SLDR 8* and an SLDR 430 9* set open to 8*. Both were stupid long but the misses tended to be awful. RookieBlue has tried to replace his TI Tmag LCG 2.0 or whatever it is like 50 times and not found a replacement yet. Sometimes something just works for you.

jaskanski Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 Mine is currently 13 seasons old. Yes, I've tried "newer" drivers including the latest technology with moving weights and adjustable hosels etc, but nothing beats the venerable Titleist 983K for feel or distance. The 905T also spent a lot of bag time as the preferred driver, but if I had to choose then the 983K wins heads down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chemclub Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 I still game a TaylorMade R11 (and with the potential death of TM it is bound to skyrocket in price). Shortened it to 44.25" and the driver is once again my favorite club to hit. I happen to agree with Tom Wishon that driver tech is over rated. They are not making huge leaps in distance and forgiveness year over year. At best it is incremental or not at all. I still bomb my R11 past all my buddies who play the latest driver that year. If you have confidence in your driver, that is all that matters.

Ugglyputters Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 I play the old Cleveland launcher. I have gone to the store and hit it against the latest and greatest that supposed to give me 20 more yards, but it's not so. The new drivers look prettier and have nice paint jobs but nothing amazing when it comes to performance. I have a new cobra fly z plus that someone gave me, but it's not an improvement worth a couple of hundred dollars.

808nation Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 Currently gaming a Ping G15 which is more than a couple of years old. Tried new drivers like the Titleist 915 D2, buy always went back to the Ping because of it's feel and sound. The ball feels great off the face when I flush it and I get good feed back when I hit it on the toe or heel. Distance wise, I got a little more out of the Titleist only because it was at full length, my Ping I had it cut down to 43 and a half. If I connect it just right on upper center of the head it gives me about the same distance as with any other new driver out there. Been looking to replace it but just haven't found the right one yet. Haven't tried the Mizuno driver yet, so I'm hoping as we all are.

mdumble21 Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 I bought the 2014 Big Bertha from Callaway back in 2013, so the old girl's not exactly new - although newer than most of the others on this particular forum. However, this is a club that can, and will, go quite long when the need or opportunity arises. There's at least 2 or 3 times per round where I hit 300yd+ drives, and I know that she can keep up with, and beat, the current crop of drivers. The current Callaway GBB, TM M2, King Cobra and XR16 aren't as long or as low spinning as my driver. The only thing that might tempt me into buying new is the M1 with the right shaft in it, but the price would have to be right, probably around AUD$400 (roughly US$300).

DanUsh Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 I am still playing a Ping G25. Not as old as some of the other drivers mentioned here. I used to love my Titleist 905T and it was a fairway finder. I would like to see how the Most wanted drivers of the past few years stack up against each other. I think for me to take my G25 out of the bag right now I would want a smaller head and the right shaft combo that gave me a consistent fairway finder. I am afraid to cut down my shaft because I don' want to change the swing weight. But I definitely think i was more consistant back in the day when the drivers were shorter. Better center of the face contact with always means more distance.

chemclub Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 I am seriously considering buying a Wishon 919THI driver. That would be a very old driver that is new to me. I will come clean (as indicated by my earlier post) that I have become enamored of the Wishon total fitting philosophy of late. We'll see how things end up next year, but the reviews of that driver are very tempting (going back years). I especially like how people always comment on the consistency of it, which I think probably speaks more to the fitting process rather than the club itself.

Ugglyputters, sorry for the late response, but I agree. I gave up golf (due to an unhealthy addiction) six years ago and traded in a mixed set of MP-60/MP-32 and Bridgestone J38 DPCs. The only clubs I kept were my "custom" Cameron Studio Select Newport and my Cobra HS-9 X driver. When I picked the game back up, I kept those two clubs in the bag, and went on the prowl for a decent set of used clubs. First I bought a set of Cleveland CG16 Black Pearl Tours, which were nice, but I was used to forged...after a year I came across a mint set of Bridgestone J38 DPCs. I picked them up at a great price, and they feel just as good as my old set, if not better. I just need to do a shaft upgrade eventually. The irons and the driver meet or exceed anything I've put them up against on a launch monitor, albeit in store, produced in the past two years. I say all this to say that while the club ***** in me wants to buy every shiny thing I come across, there is a lot to be said for the confidence you feel looking down at a club you know you can hit well. It'll take a lot to get any of those clubs out of my bag, along with my Callaway X Hot Tour 3 wood and the original Bobby Jones Hybrid. I am looking forward to giving the Fly-Z+ a shot, but until then, I'll keep swinging the old tried and true clubs.
