Ping si3 driver

Summary:
This club works great for me. It plays longer than any driver I have used. I am 13 and I used to drive around 190 to 205 yards and now I hit around 220 to 230. In conclusion this is a great club.

7* Fuji Speeder X-stiff

Summary:
Last night a tried a 983 E and loved it, and even reviewed it, stating that I would happily trade my 975 L-FE for it. Today, while getting fitted for my irons, I tried one of these...and traded my 975 L-FE for it. This thing was amazing. the distance was about the same on the simulator as my L-FE...maybe a couple yards longer, but straight down the fairway, no matter how hard I would swing. Even the pro there couldn't believe it...he felt I would hit a higher loft better, we tried, and the 7* was the best for me hands down. $175 for a club with a $400 shaft on it is not a bad deal in my book...can't wait for this snow to melt.

Customer Service:
I don't know, but I heard they are the best...hope I never have to find out!

Ping Si3 6* 340cc Driver Stiff Flex

Summary:
I was using a beginner set of clubs and was driving the ball pretty far with my cheap driver but felt I could be better with a more advanced club. I got the Ping Si3 Titanium 6* Driver with a Stiff Flex off ebay for $80. At first it was hard to hit, probably the steep angle (6*). Once I got used to it I was driving the ball consistantly 295 yards and could shape my shots pretty well. It is very solid when hit and still goes pretty far on off-center hits.

Summary:
Brought the Ping after a few years with the Wilson. Tried a number (all the usual top 10) with a variety of mixed results. The Si3 is certainly peculiar in appearance, however the high face seems to encourages me to tee it further up.
It doesn't sound like most thin faced drivers do these days (that tinny ping noise), but when it comes out of the screws it really goes.
I've played about a dozen rounds with it so far and it is far more consistent than the club it replaced. I get a good consistent distance and am able to work it both ways with some control. It seems to be able to put up with the inconsistencies of my swing better than others I have tried, and I think that in the end that is what you most hope for.

Si 3 ping driver

Summary:
I was using the Cleveland Launcher 330 for about 2 years, but really never felt good about the club.
I recently found the Si3 on 3balls.com for 143.00. I had to try it!
It is AWESOME! I've havent pounded the ball like this for a long time.

Instead of using a stiff shaft I went to the graffaloy regular shaft. I also went to a 10 degree compared to the 9.5 I was using.

I also took advantage of the 58 deg. Lie and 1 deg. closed face. This has enabled me to hit nice long draws consistantly.

Bottom line is: This Driver is long and very easy to hit. I have more confidence than ever! I highly suggest this club

Customer Service:
3 balls .com has some good deals, but choice is limitied. You almost have to check back each day to see what they have. I ordered the club off the web, but the shipping and stuff went really well. they also have good package tracking.
