TM 300 Ti 8.5- Tour S90 - Left Hand
I am a left-handed 1 handicap. I have been playing steel headed (Callaway) drivers the because I could never control the long, big-head, light, Titanium drivers. We'll I decided to play a round with a TM 300 w/Tour S90 shaft and I am absolutely crushing this club - 290/300 yards. Its the first TI driver for me that plays like a traditional driver. I may try a few shaft configurations, but I really like this TM 300 Similar Products Used: Callaway VFT, Hawkeye, GBB; Titleist 975, Ping Ti |

300 8.5
Well, it seems that this driver only worked for me on one round. But from then on, it has been the biggest waste of money ever. I thought it was maybe the shaft. Then i slapped on a Bi-matrix as planned and the same ol duck hook followeed. I had a pro look at it and he said that the face was a couple of degrees closed. I was thinkin many obsenities then. I hit a nice draw anyway, but this just made it a 90 degree turn right. I am selling it and have just ordered the J. If you draw the ball, stay away form this club.

TaylorMade 320 10.5 driver
I really wanted a Titlest 975D driver with a uspro shaft for Christmas but my girlfriend opted for the local pro's opinions and got me the TaylorMade. I am so stoked she picked this one! It hits straighter, longer and more forgiving than my Biggest Bertha and it looks awesome in the bag. This is the driver that is going to change my game. I recommend it to anyone looking for an added advantage. Similar Products Used: None |

300 series driver
Wow! This driver did it for me. I tried the 975D driver and PING TSI drivers. I bought the TM S90 prolite shaft and the key for me was to hit softly but with a complete follow through. A little different from the TM bubble shaft that I had, which is a 10.5 degree. The 300 series that I got was a 9.5 and it gives me a pretty low trajectory that I like and would give me a roll. I added around 15+ yards to my drives and the accuracy was great. Misses were pretty much straight but not as short an the TI PINGs. I only weght round 150lbs but I can hit this driver around 260-270, which is awesome.! Similar Products Used: None |

Taylor 320
This is a followup to an earlier review. It's been about a month since I traded in my VFT 9 degree for my new 320 with the prolite 35 stiff gaffaloy shaft. It's been a month of total confidence. I absolutely love this club. With my callaway GGB and my Hawkeye, all I could do was draw the ball. I won't mention my feelings about the VFT. With my my Taylor 320, I hit a slight fade and just feel so much more comfortable with it. One thing to add is that all of us have different swings and will have different opinions of clubs. I'm 6' 6" tall and weigh 280, so I can generate some speed and arc. THe 320 just feels the best Similar Products Used: Callaway GGB, Hawkeye and the crappy VFT. |

Taylor Made360
I recently tested the Taylor Made series, Pings, Adams bi matrix and callaway drivers. The Taylor Made 360 with the R-80 shaft was the one I purchased even though my swing speed is around 97 MPH. I tested the club at the Alabama RTJ course at Capitol Hill. My first drive was right down the middle about 260 yds. One of the best drives I have ever hit. Over the next three days I hit over 60% of the fairways and was 20 to 39 yds longers on a very tough golf course. It is truely an amazing club, the pure joy one gets from watching your drives arc down the fairway is well worth the price of the club. Similar Products Used: None |

Shoot in the 90s
I generally shoot around 90. I swing fairly hard (110-115 mph) so I went with the bigger 360 with a stiff shaft and a 9.5* face. I tried out the Callaway VFT, Ping i3, and a couple of cheaper clubs. I found the VFT to be pretty close to the TM 360 but it tended to slice a little more when it did slice. I couldn't find a degree on the Ping that fit by swing so I couldn't hit it at all (pop ups or too low line drives). The 360 was much better at the range than on the course (it was 99% perfect on the range). On the course it didn't react well to wilder swings - once I held the back swing to the correct rotation it has been fantastic. Much more accurate than other clubs I've used and you can get great distance without having to kill it. Great sound at impact. My value rating is based on the price I paid (near wholesale at a golf show) - otherwise I'd be too cheap to buy it. Similar Products Used: Callaway VFT, Ping i3 |
