Is one of the BEST drivers out there considering it's rice with performance !

It's been replaced with the latest MT driver , also with the cup face technology.

It beats the TM Burner (Over priced ++) and Some cobra drivers hands down in performance. at least as long as the Cleveland XLS/latest laucher.

and as good as my beloved cally X460.

Stock shaft is pretty good.
The grip has lasted me.

Mine is lead weighted to s Swing weight of ~D4 as the stock head is too light for me.

Rating is easily > 8/10

Awesome!!!! I have played the game for about 13 years and have never been able to hit a strait drive. I have always been able to hit a consistent major slice. The first dozen hits with this club were beautiful! (then I got greedy) I would recommend this club to any slicer. Confidence builder for sure, I have added about thirty yards easily without changing my swing. GREAT BUY FOR ONLY 46 BUCKS PLUS SHIPPING OFF EBAY. A++++++++

Model Reviewed: NVG2 MacGregor Mac Tec Draw 460cc Driver

After no carrying a driver in my bag for a few years, I decided to start playing tournaments again. In order to do so, I was looking for a Driver, which is easy to hit, has a nice feel and sound, looks good and not to spacy and supports a little draw. I tested all kinds of drivers and narrowed it down to the Tayolor Made Burner, Callaway FTi, several Golfmith custom drivers and the MacGregor. Then I got lucky and practiced in Germany on a range, where there was a demo day. So I hit it 10 Times. 3 times clear out of the range and the rest of it straight as an error without any problems.
I love the sound of the new technology face. Also that there is no groves is really nice and I think it all helps for a great feel. I play an S shaft, which I found to be not really stiff enough. So I had to slow my swing down to about 100 mph and now it works. The grip is not good. Falls apart. But one can change that easily. It is light and it has a huge advantage: It does not cost a fortune. Over all I think this is a great driver for all hcps and wallets. Hits straight and def. helps to improve your drive because it is also very forgiving.

Customer Service

I did not have to work with customer service so far. If you are a golf pro in Europe although, you need to be patient. Once you get on staff, it could take half a year to even hear from MacGregor. Sales staff is hard if at all to reach.

Due to the new technology I will not list any similar products for that matter. I would say that the Taylor Made Draw has a similar draw effect though.

HAVE TRIED MOST DRIVERS. I TEND TO SLICE MY DRIVES. I BOUGHT NVG2 SEVERAL WEEK AGO AND IMMEDIATELY STARTED TO HIT STRAIGHT DRIVES AND THEY WENT A LONG WAY. I CAN NOW HIT A SLIGHT DRAW. ( I HAVE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO DRAW A BALL). THIS IS A BRILLIANT DRIVER FOR MID HANDICAPPER. THE FUJIKURA QUADRA SHAFT SUITS THIS CLUB WELL.

Wow. I had been looking into buying a 10.5 degree driver as a recent improvement in my swing had resulted in a lower trajectory and the need to replace my 9.0 degree Cobra 460SZ driver. I have always fought a fade/slice. I have tried the TM 460 adjustable weight driver, Adams Redline offset, Adams 460 draw bias, Cleveland Offset as well. In every case none ever realy helped with the draw slice. Even after the swing change I still fought the fade/slice.

Until I bought the MacGregor MacTec NVG Draw. I hit 40 balls on the range and not a one was a fade or slice. In fact I had to adjust my grip to stop from pulling the ball. The MacTec is straighter and longer than any driver I have ever hit. Great club.....

I bought this club as an experiment against my Cleveland 460. It's me not the Launcher - I know.

For $50 I highly recommend this club. I wouldn't equate it to my Cleveland 460 Launcher, but I shot a 41 tonight using this club.

I can hook any club including this one. Here is what the club does well. It hits straight, long, and that's all I care about.

From the top it looks like a traditional wood. I'm glad I can't see the bottom of the club when I am swinging. There is more going on on the bottom of this club.

If the tour version has muted the unusual sound of this club, I'd like to hear the draw bias version. It sounds exactly like a metal bat hitting a baseball.

If your big into feel, the forget this club. I can't tell if I hit it flush - every shot feels the same. It really doesn't matter because the ball goes long and straight.

I'm not sure this club will make it in my bag, but it is a very good drive. If you are a good golfer, make sure you get the Tour bias. This club is much better than the draw.

Heard alot of hype about this club, decided to try one brand new on ebay $53.00 + shipping. I would watch a monkey kick a football for $53.00, This Mactec 460 is A cannon is all I can say, best $53.00 I have spent in a long time. Been hitting a 2008 Taylor Made Draw Burner, that I purchased at the beginning of the year, this Mactec Draw driver is just as long for a heck of alot less money, should have checked out a Mactec before I spent money on the TM. If you havent hit one of these then give it a try you wont be disappointed. TM is now a back up .

Model Reviewed: 440cc stiff shaft 10.5*

I finally decided to give into the "craze" and try one of the big headed drivers. I found the MACTEC NVG2 nuetral driver for $50 on ebay and figured i'd give it a shot. I got it in a stiff shaft with 10.5* of loft. The degree of loft was a mistake as a tend to balloon it. My previous drivers were the Adams SC 818 Fade 9* and a Titleist 975D 8.5*. The Macgregor driver looks nice, seems well built and and has a decent shaft IMO. However it is just too big. Even if i decided to go with the 9.5* i still wouldn't be comfortable swinging the club. There's just two much club to get a feel with.

Macgregor is solid under appreciated company.

Model Reviewed: Macgregor MacTec NVG2 10.5 driver (neutral bias)

I have a full Macgregor setup ... NVG2 irons (awesome), NVG2 fairways/hybrids (laser guided missles) ... and a neutral bias 10.5 driver with the stiff Fuji Quadra action shaft. I had only played with it once before today, on a cool day and I felt it was a little stiff and I was not impressed... but that may have just been me that was stiff--and I didn not quite yet understand its "personality" ... because today I used it to set a personal driving record by over 20 yards.

It seems very stable. I wasn't able to work it as well as I wanted, but that may have been the distance ball I was testing out, which would tend to resist spin .. but other than that I found it to be a cannon, reasonably straight, and I either found the fairway or first cut rough on every hole. The game seems a lot easier from there! There are a lot of good drivers on the market right now for the average player, and the NVG2 is an excellent choice. Compared to other drivers I have hit, the NVG2 seems a balance between straight and distance, with a good deal of both and no sacrifices other than a bit of a bland feel initially .... it shares the cup face design with the Tour Edge Exotics clubs, but is much more affordable ... and just as long in most cases. I do think the cup face technology makes a difference. The face is red hot, and off-center hits are not punished much. When you DO hit it "on the screws," it feels like a *!@#!! howitzer. My swing speed is on the slow side, yet I am able to squeeze a lot of distance out of this baby. I have other drivers that I like the "feel" of more ... but it is hard to argue with an extra 20 yards. While I am at it, let me give a shoutout for the full set ... I have hated every 3 wood ever created until now ... the NVG2 fairways are so good I actually look forward to hitting my 3 wood now. The NVG2 irons have a thick topline, and are not super workable ... but they are LONG, easy to hit, and arrow straight. Most of the time, that's all the average player needs.
