I am a fairly good lag putter, so if I can get it within 4 feet of the hole--it's pretty much a gimme. I don't know what more you can ask from a putter for a 2-3X week recreational golfer. I practice a lot so that might have something to do with lower scores. Granite Bay Masonry

Many par fours are now driver 9iron or pitching wedge. I got a good buy from ebay, other wise I probably would not have bought one. Well worth it. emergency roadside truck repair Houston

Very lightweight driver. 46 inch shaft results in better than average distance. The sweet spot is not a large as many others. Very loud sound at impact. The driver favors a slow swing. - Phoenix Mobile Truck Repair

This was the 2nd driver that I purchased before companies went 460cc. The first was a typical metal driver w/graphite shaft.

My Taylormade 200 has a 43" inch steel shaft and is listed as stiff (Rifle shaft.) Completely stock.

Jump ahead several years and after two 460cc drivers (Cobra speed and Nike V) and I'm back to the Taylormade. It's 2014 and the Taylor made it's way back in my bag. I traded my Cobra Speed for the Nike V... the Nike V sits in my closet.

This driver isn't necessarily the answer for those who NEED added forgiveness.

It's very odd. Perhaps it's the shaft? But one thing is certain. I've pounded the Nike driver (44.5" shaft) and the ball simply won't go as far as when I pound the ball with the Taylor made. The Taylormade offers improved accuracy too.

Purchased at a mom and pop store. The Nike driver was purchased at the same place. The Nike driver was more than $200.00 more than the Taylormade.

It's a bit of a throw-back club, but this small-headed driver delivers all the distance of the 460cc heads. I've had mine for about 5 years and I'm not giving it up. It doesn't offer the same forgiveness as the 460's, but the feel is much more solid. The driver has a super hot face and the ball comes off screaming. Try one out at your local pro shop and put it up against the big 460's. Just try not to bite your tongue when you're picking your jaw up off the floor.

If you like the smaller head drivers of years past,you may want to give this driver a try.It has a solid feel and a sweet sound that you don't get from the titanium drivers of today.I have the 10.5* and the stock TM R-80 shaft.The ball comes off at a much lower trajectory than the larger head 10.5* drivers and produces quite a bit of roll.Along with a V-steel 3 and 5 wood,Taylormade has me covered.

I have been using my Taylor 10.5 Reg 200 steel for several years. Its a very solid feeling and sounding club. I have tried many of the newer more "advanced" clubs... Its too much fun playing with the old one, its a great club and I enjoy out driving the all the $400 clubs.

I've been going through large headed drivers like water: HiBore, Cobra L4V, Burner and my well used R5. That said, after a re-grip to a full cord Golf Pride, I returned to my 10.5 Reg shaft 200 steel. Awesome feel, little loss in distance, little dispersion and very workable. I suspect having an additional one on the side (even used) is a better investment. A great club. The 3 and 5 woods are also very solid.

Had this driver for over 4 yrs. now - I think it's the best driver for the money. Awesome distance, great sound at impact. I consistantly outdrive guys with the latest "BIG" drivers - wish rest of my game was up to snuff.

I have had this club for as long as I can remember. I would guess now going on 6 or more years. I have a swing speed over 100mph and can toss the ball 280 on a regular basis. Every so often I go out and see if there is something that I can hit better than it. I would spend $300 or more if I could get either straighter drives, or at least another 30 yards. Up to this point, I am going out again soon, I have not found one. What happen with the review?
