TaylorMade R580 XD Drivers Review

TaylorMade R580 XD


Description
  • Larger, deeper hitting area above the CG makes the R580 XD easy to launch
  • Improved Inverted Cone Technology provides a larger COR Zone that equals higher ball-speed delivered by a larger area of the clubface
  • New sole design optimizes CG placement, resulting in superior launch conditions
  • Classically shaped head is preferred by many players

TaylorMade R580 9.5 Driver

Summary:
My wife purchased this driver for me. My first TaylorMade product, and I can tell you this is probably the best driver thats ever been created! I've swung many and none allow the control, comfort and sheer distance of this one. BEST IN CLASS- BEST IN SHOW- BEST IN GOLF

Similar Products Used:
I use PowerBilt Irons, Royal Woods, TaylorMade R590 Driver, and I don't use a putter... I'm deadly accurate using my PW on the green

Taylormade 580xd

Summary:
I have used this club since 2004 when I purchased a new set (17 at the time). Everything was custom made with x100 shafts in the irons, but they didnt custom the driver. I hit this driver 300 average, and it is 7 years old. I am looking into a new driver, and will stick with the taylormade brand for that. I hit mizuno mp32 irons and taylormade rac wedges with a scotty cam putter.

This is a great club that I have used probably over 300 rounds of golf and as many times to the range.

Taylormade R580 xd

Summary:
Very small sweet spot, not forgiving, what distance, if hit is not perfect bye bye ball. Please avoid this club, it is a total shame to Taylormade's lineup. I'll be in the market for a new driver. Any REAL recommendations?

R580XD

Summary:
I got this driver with a full set of used clubs I bought. At first I wasnt too impressed. Like most people I have a pretty bad slice problem some days. I had been playing a Mizuno MX-560 and was just starting to get my slice under control. I took this out to range to compare, at first I could only hit it to the right couldnt get the same distance as the Mizuno.
I was about to downgrade this very quickly into my "spare club" bag, but first I thought I would take it out one more time to the range. Glad I did!. After about a 1/2 bucket of balls I started getting a feel for it. I didn't get anymore distance than I did with my old club, but my grouping was much tighter ( mostly staight with the ocassional fade). Sounds much better than the Mizuno by a longshot. Tayormade is gonna be in bag for a long time. Pick one up, you can find em cheap these days.
I did recently hit my buddies R7 Quad, very impressive, I thought it felt just as good, only with more distance.

Customer Service:
Never used 'em
