TaylorMade R360 XD

Summary:
Bought a 10.5 degree regular flex shaft model on eBay for $78. Quite simply, it has helped transform my game.

Now... I know that golf clubs don't have magical powers, and that "It's not the arrow, it's the Indian" - but for some reason this club and I are a very good fit.

Previously was driving about 220-230 with a slice, now 250-260 and dead straight. What a revelation to play your second shot from the fairway.

Model Reviewed:
Taylormade R360 XD

Summary:
This driver took a couple of rounds to get used to, but that's probably a fairly quick adjustment.
That speaks to how easy this driver is to hit. For a mid to high handicapper this is a solid value. A quality driver for about $130.
The head is 360cc, not as big as many of latest variations and the face is not as deep as many drivers.
For me, these are two positive attributes.
The strength of this driver is control. Once I got a feel for it -- and quit trying to hit a draw -- I found I could hit a pretty consistent high ball with a slight fade. I was also able to hit it straight.
I could lower the trajectory of the shot by moving my hands forward a bit and playing the ball a couple inches back in my stance.
I'm still getting to know this driver so it's hard to judge the length. So far it's about as long as my Cleveland Launcher (original model). Maybe longer, but it's too early to tell.
The 360XD comes with a very light shaft --that's a plus and minus. The plus is it seems to respond well to a controlled swing. The minus is that it's sometimes easy to lose the club on the backswing if you really try to nuke it.
The sound and feel are solid and the trajectory is usually high.
Overall, it's an impressive driver for the price and it might play well enough to sideline my two-year-old Launcher.

Taylor Made R360 XD Driver

Summary:
I was using a Taylor Made 360 clone but was looking for extra distance. Bought this club on ebay and love it. It gives me 10-15 more yards with a staighter ball flight because the face is slightly closed. Highly recommended.

Model Reviewed:
360 XD 10.5* stiff

Summary:
Great driver for the money. I've played with this club for 7 months now and can say that it's dependable. It's a very accurate club, not large on distance though. It does have a great alignment aid with the molded crown. The dark green paint is cool too. The shaft is stiff but has a soft tip to help launch the ball. This is a very good driver for hitting punch drives and stingers though into the wind, perhaps due to the shallower face. If you're looking for a more accurate club off the tee, you may want to try this club. If distance is a bigger deal and you're willing to pay more coin try the Taylor Made 500 XD series. However,you can pick the 360 XDs up off the net for around $160 brand new. What a great deal.
