Summary: I've been playing for about 5 years now and like most people, I continue to struggle with my driver. I generally have a tendency to fade the ball, which often turns into a nasty slice; which makes this driver such a welcome addition to my equipment.
The driver is supposedly designed with a draw biased, which in my hands, gives me a rather straight drive. Even when I tend to get ahead of myself in the swing, I tend to be in less trouble than I would be on my other drivers.
The weighting on the head, coupled with the combination of the shaft is great! The feedback and balance on a swing let's me know where I screwed up on a swing. And when you hit it sweet, the sound from the driver is amazing.
I'd recommend this to beginners though; given today's technology, I think more advanced players can definitely use the larger head size to their advantage.

Summary: I borrowed this club from a friend whilst trying differnt drivers, and have stuck with it for a while. The club seems to set up left, (I am righty) and hits the ball very long, sometimes left but on the whole straight, with little side spin - I would go as far to say it makes it difficult to slice if that is your bad shot.
For instance I played yesterday and hit one drive with it and a 7 iron to make the green on a 470 yard par 5......
I just looked on ebay and found one going for £10 - Ive played alot worse drivers than this one.....

Summary: I bought this club along with the Vmass 260 titanium 3 wood because I wanted to have woods with matching shafts (which was something I hadn't had before). I got both with stiff shafts because my swing is fast. I am extremely impressed with both. The driver is a 9 degree loft and I can regularly hit over 280 yds no problem. It seems very forgiving if the contact is not off the centre of the club and it is not as wayward as the Mizuno I tried at the same time. I've had it now for about six months and although it isn't as huge as other drivers on the market, I think it certainly holds it's own with them as some of the folks I play with regularly are usually outdriven by it.
Would recommend this club to golfers who need a bit more consistency and not more length. Not a club for a beginner but will see me into songle figures no problem.

Summary: Wow this driver stinks, ive had it for 2 years and have a proforce 65 stiff in it, the last shaft was whippy times ten and the clubhead is a tin can with some paint on it, definately try before u even consider.
