Description The Pd5 features a nano carbon crown that utilizes the latest in nanotechnology, and a deep face titanium design for improved playability. Nano carbon and titanium have joined forces in this 400cc club to offer golfers the stability and feel they need to maximize shotmaking capabilities. Combined with a .350 tip Nano Tech shaft, the Pd5 provides supreme control on the tee.
Summary: I bought this club back in 2007 after it came out and got it at a bargain 50 pounds. I tried it on the range before and was very impressed. It was when the Dd5 had just come out and so it was mega cheap compared to the other drivers. I have had it ever since and although it is not my preferred driver - I resort to this one if 1) I am playing an extremely tight course or 2) I am not hitting my Taylor Made R5 bang on! I find that it is both long and forgiving - I have a stiff shaft - 9.5° loft and I get 280 - 295 out of this one without trying to knock the skin off the ball. Sometimes - my old trusty Pd5 works a treat. Off centres still fly, great forgiveness at a great price. Nanotech red Shaft still going strong after these years, mid kick point stiff is not too whippy at the tip - minimum twist even when trying open blocks and flat hooks, easy to fade and draw. Confident flat clubface at address.
Don't see many about these days - this is a rare treat - buy one just to try it out at 30 quid, $50 or less. What have you got to lose?

Summary: A very attractive club that sets up nicely. I have played it in a 7.5 and 8.5 woth stiff shaft. Nice trajectory that doesn't balloon. Has a decent sound and feel and a good sized sweet spot. Distance is on a par with with a Taylor R7. It is a great deal if you can find it on Ebay. Not a big name but not a big price either. Overall very pleased with the performance of this club. Reasonable distance on off center hits as well. You can get allot of decent clubs these dyas but few at this price.
Summary: Wilson Staff Pd5 Driver w stock x flex nano tech shaft, 10 degree loft.
love the shaft on this club. I paid 54.99+ shipping for this in january of 2008. I can't find x flex shafts as the canadian companies don't stock them. (have to order them and it's +$250 at least).
it's just as long as the other clubs I have been playing but it is much more workable than I am use to. I haven't quite got this club down yet but I will say this:
great bargain
very high quality
get's the ball out a long way
the only caution i have is that there are a lot more lively and forgiving drivers out there than this.
overall a solid bargain.

Summary: Have been stuck on Callaway trying to find the right driver. Great BB2, X460, ERC, etc.
I have always liked Padraig Harrington, so when I saw him playing this I tried it. Picked a slightly used on on ebay for $35.00. That's right $35! I even have the upgraded proforce 65 stiff shaft. And I will say "I love this club". It is the best value in drivers period.
Give it a try.

Summary: I bought this driver about 1 month ago, This driver is more closed than my old one and i think it is what is causing me to not play a high fade. It is very easy to play high, low, left or right
