320ti 10.5* - lite r-80 shaft
Had this driver for over a year now and for the price, this fairly old driver is pretty good. Not the most forgiving but, when sruck properly the club feels great. The club has a medium sized head and a low profile face.I have quite a high launch angle with this club and the shaft is reasonably good.
Customer Service Club is usually available on www.golfbidder.co.uk for about £50. But I would recommend spending the extra 30 to 40 pounds on a second hand R5 or an old R7. |

TaylorMade 320 Ti, Graffaloy 9.5 Stiff
This club feels like a wand. I can take an aggressive athletic stance and blast it. It's an excellent value club for players who have trouble with the 460cc junk but want something that threatens modern. The clubface is wide but not particularly deep or heavy, allowing it to feel like an actual golf club and not a toaster on a stick. Plus it looks great at address, rounded and symmetrical. I have a 9.5 degree with the burgundy Graffaloy ProLite stiff. Trajectory is mid, if not somewhat low. My one problem with this club is getting it high enough when a long carry is priority one. But I've had that difficulty ever since wonderful workable persimmon was phased out.

Taylor Made 320 Pro Force 65 shaft
Great club with the right shaft in it. I bought one with a Pro Force 65 stiff shaft in it as I was struggling with a duck hook from my my Callaway VFT. Sits nicely behind the ball and not as ugly as some of the newer 440-460cc drivers. I think some people struggle with the ball ballooning because the Taylor Made shaft fitted as standard. I find the ball flight to be penetrating with a 9.5 degree loft, but don't tee it up too high. Solid thump when you strike the ball as opposed to the more metalic sound of the Callaway. Good all round club for very little money now. Highley recommended. Customer Service No need Similar Products Used: Callaway VFT, Callaway Big Bertha, Maksar TW 400, lots of Taylor Made inc XR-05 |

I am an 8 handicap golfer,57,yrs old having played for about 22 Yrs. I have finally found what I have been looking for for all these years.I bought a 320Ti 9 degree,stiff Nippon NS Pro Gt 600 shaft,off E.Bay. I hit a basket of balls at the range and couldn't hit anything but straight down the middle for 240yds plus.I have tried almost everything but this beats them all. |

`Taylor Made 320Ti Series Driver
I picked this club up on ebay for $56. Best deal I ever made. Brand new head with a $40 Harrison Stripper J 60 shaft and a very soft Cleveland Golf tour velvet grip. I could not beleive how fast this club swings compaired to my Wilson Fatboy. I also cant beleive how far I am hitting the ball. Even on the odd miss-hit it still goes as long as my old driver. And ends up better once it stops. This club requires a slow smooth swing. If you try to smash the ball ya never know where it will go. I learned the swing required from my adams tight lies fareway woods. Sometimes slower and smoother means farther. And thats how it is with this club. It flys high long and dead straight for me. I am going to try and find a backup for this club and I think it's the last one I'll ever play. That and the stripper J shafts are going on all my woods. I am not saying the club is for everyone but it made an impact on me. It works for my swing and skill level. And I love it.

taylormade 320 9.5* with rifle shaft
this is a great club. i have tremendous confidence with this club. excellent length. easy to hit straight. mis-hits never seem to drift too far off line. a few clubs may be longer but few if any are as dependably long and straight. |

Looking for the newest hot driver on the market with lots of reviews everywhere-well look at another model.Now if you are looking for a easy to hit long driver this is it,oh almost forgot-its cheap too!Less than $75 for good used ones on Ebay.Is it as long as the new hot drivers?I think so-mine can stay with or out drive a TM580 with a simular type player on the end of it.I am not a super long hitter but 270 to 290 is possible on good hits.230 to 250 are fairly standard.Now we are at sea level and have hot tempertures so that slows the ball down so I can see 300 or more in cool high areas I think.The head size is todays mid sized at something like 340 cc-its not like swinging a large grapefruit on a stick,but its big enough to have a large sweetspot.My club is stiff and I think the reg shaft might be to soft for the average golfer in the 90 to 100 mph swing speed range so the stiff is the way to go.Overall a great club that can be bought at 20% of the cost of the new hot boys but just as long I think and if its not whats 5 yds anyway! Customer Service Never used-never had a problem with a TM product.3balls.com are great Ebayers so its a good place to look.If they say its MINT you will think its new when you get it.If they say very good well it looks like its new but just been in someones bag for a month riding around!

Taylor Made 320 series
Several Club Pros and Assistant Pros that I know play 320's in various lofts. I read many positive reviews of the 320 Driver and thought that so many devotees of the product could not possibly be wrong. I bought a 7.0* S-90 shaft 320 brand new in November for $75. I played with it for the first time today at my local course. It was a wet, cool, spring day with temps. in the low 50's. (plugged lies with no roll). This was my first round of the season and I was swinging close to average which is as much as could be expected after 5 months of winter. My swing speed is 112-114 on average and have clocked 125MPH when everything is right. That means that a my trusty Ti Bubble 2 8.5* S-90, carries to a plugged lie in wet conditions about 270yds. It also means that I am capable of driving the ball in the 320yd range, and on rare occasions have exceeded that substantially. Being that long, I have not had much need for another driver. That changed when I bought a cottage which has eight golf courses nearby and I decided to buy another set of clubs to leave up there for the season. I plugged a ball in the fairway 290yds on the 2nd hole, hit a sand wedge to 6ft and made birdie. I hit several other drives that were all better than 280yds and one that I plugged at just over 300yds. I can only imagine how far they would have gone under dry conditions. All well struck drives were dead centre fairway and those that were not hit that well were very playable with only one in the rough. What really impressed me was how effortless it was to do it. The ball flight was mid trajectory and frozen rope straight. In three instances the ball went right at my aiming targets! They all left the face hot and laser like. Various brands of balls bored through the wind as if it was dead calm. The Ti Bubble 2 is much more wind affected and I have always resorted to Pro V1's when playing in the wind. I didn't even have one in my new bag today! The Smartcore was the longest of the four different balls that I hit today. I had read many reviews which claimed that the 320 balooned alot. I figured that the shaft had a low kick point so I would go to a 7.0*, since 8.5* is my preferred loft. The results indicate that I was right. I have also bought an 8.5* 320 with a GD YS-6 stiff, which has a mid kick shaft in order to provide another way of solving this supposed problem. That club will show up in another review after I get a chance to play it. This club is accurate, long, inexpensive and will stay in the bag for quite some time. I would strongly recommend this club and so do several of my friends who are Club Pros. and still use them.

Taylor Made Ti Series Driver
Horrible. I lost 30 yards off the tee and have no accuracy at all. The ball comes off low and boring. Sometimes the ball flight is really exciting to watch when you barely mis-hit it and the ball goes wherever it wants. It's inconsistent, short, outdated, a all around the worst driver that I have ever hit in my life. I'm glad it was an experiment, and I'm glad that experiment is over. The small head is difficult to hit for a high handicapper. I had no trouble finding the "sweet" spot, if you want to call it that. When you hit one solid, it feel like your are hitting chunks of lead off of a thin metal face. I wouldn't recommend this driver to anyone. Go with something newer from Taylor Made or something else all together. Similar Products Used: Nicklaus Air Max, Cleveland Launcher, Titleist D and K |

Taylor Made 320 Ti S90 Shaft. Purchased on eBay, cheap. First time I used it I missed one fairway and averaged 290 yards off the tee. It's a very forgiving club. I hit an Titleist 975D before this and haven't noticed any drop in distance, but gained in accuracy. I would recommend this club to anyone who wants to play off the short stuff. I know why so many tour pros have used this club in the past. Taylor Made ..... #1 driver on the PGA Tour. Similar Products Used: Titleist 975D |
