Summary: I know this review is a little late but... I bought this club new nearly 5 years ago and have thought about getting rid of it a number of times for a club with newer technology, but I can't. I put a midsize grip on it originally and I still hit 8/10 fairways and it's good for 280-300 yards on a very consistant basis for me. It's got to be the shaft. I hear that Wilson is bringing back the wide tip(aka Fat Shaft)clubs maybe. If so, I might think about getting rid of this one, but until then, I'll keep her.

Summary: I recently purchased the 9.5 driver from Oshmans and what a huge disappointment to say the least. The performance has been great, its the quality that is lacking. The head flew off after less than three rounds. I wonder who is QC individual at Wilson, sure missed this one. If this driver would stay together it would be a sweet stick, long and forgiving of you do your or my part. Wilson has been a favorite of mine for years, buyer beware if your looking for quality.
Customer Service: Just e-mailed them on this problem tonight.

Summary: I had previously never used a driver with a loft lower than 9*. I know all the magazines and manufacturers state a higher lofted driver gives you longer drives, but it just didn/t work for me. The sweet spot is huge and easy to find and the 305cc head doesn't feel like I am swinging a volkswagon. I used to have the 365cc 9* model and I let my brother use it because he was struggling with his drives. He fell in love with it so I gave it to him. At that time it seemed I could hit any driver and it would work. What a mistake! Since my brother has had the driver (a little over a year) I have went through 4 drivers. It is no wonder Rankmark rated these drivers so high. I bought higher lofted drivers and just ballooned drives. Also the heads of todays drivers just seem too big. Desperate, I went onto EBay and found a 305cc, 7.5* stiff flex driver for $40. I am just crushing the ball again. The ball flight is just perfect for me. Better yet, the last round I played with my brother, I was hitting it 20-30 yds past him. great buy for $40. I truely believe that these are wilson's best drivers. If you struggle with high ball flight and don't want to change your swing, buy a used, lower lofted driver and give it a try.
P.S. you can get these drivers used for the price of a round of golf.
Customer Service: Check the feedback of your EBay seller. After paying for the item, it took my seller 6 days to get to UPS to ship it. Very poor for a PowerSeller.

Summary: After using a demo at the driving range, I was amazed at the distance and accuracy of this club. Realizing I wasn't good enough to hit the legitimate 260-280 yard drives down the middle, I knew it had to be the club and not me. I bought one immediately afterwards on eBay. Since then, I've also tried the Taylor Made 580XD, Cleveland Launcher 460 and Adams Redline, finding the Wilson to be consistently 10-20 yds longer than each of the others. The TM and Cleveland have a deeper "thud" versus my Wilson's "ping," bit I'll take my sound with its added performance anytime. This driver provides exceptional distance and a huge sweet spot with incredible forgiveness that I don't understand, but will certainly accept. My often found off-center hits still travel almost as if they were hit perfectly. This is a great driver for me, one who normally plays in the low 90's (and playing for only just over 2 years). I get wonderful comments and compliments about my drives almost whenever I play. Now, if I can only get my short game fine tuned to go along with my drives.......
