Summary: Bought this club last year. Was using a cheap sporting goods store model prior to this one. Main reason I bought it was the price (bought at golf galaxy for $90 USD) . Has a very large face that is quite forgiving to off center hits. Have definately noticed good distance even when I havent hit it perfect. I know that there have been advancements in technology since this one came out a few years ago but I feel that a golfer at any level could benefit from this club. For the price that it has been lowered to at many stores, I dont believe that there is a much better value out there.

Summary: I am in my third year of golfing and had been playing cheap generic clubs. I was unhappy with the driver and decided to try a better club. When a saw the r580 xd for sale at a local sporting goods store, I went for it. It has a stock shaft with a regular flex and 10.5 loft. It is a great club, and added at least 10 yards to my drive, straight down the middle. I would recommend this driver to anyone looking to add some yards to their drive.

Shoots in the 70s
Model Reviewed: Taylor Made R 580 XD
Summary: I bought this Taylor Made through ebay for a reasonable price. After playing only Ping equipment since high school, (I am now 31), I was skeptical to try a friends Taylor Made. I played with a Ping G 5 and was pleased with it, but like any other guy I thought why not try my buddy's new club. AWESOME!! This club was truly 10 carry yards more than my Ping and very pleasing to the eye at address. I still think Ping makes the best irons, but this Taylor Made is the driver of choice.
