Strength:
I flight the ball much lower now...beautiful. So, I'm on pay dirt more and picked up distance for chump change on eBay. Also bought the V-Steel 3 wood which I like, but will be upgrading the shaft to a ProForce 65 to get the ball flight down a bit. | Walnut Creek Pest Control Weakness:
None so far. |

Had this club for like 10 years and bought a rocketballz and have hit some newer models of some friends of mine and this old beast still beats 'em as far as I'm concerned....if you are getting this driver for a couple bucks you are getting the STEAL OF The CENTURY!! |

Picked up at thrift for a couple of bucks. I have more in the new grip than in the club. I've been at the range a few times hitting this. This will replace my larger Cobra driver as I can hit this farther and straighter. Who needs 460cc when you stumble across a club that you can just hit well right away. It can be a long hitting club if it fits your swing. Shot shaping is fairly easy too. I recommend this club if you can find it for less than 20 bucks which shouldn't be too hard. Giving overall rating a '4' as I don't know if I'll ever find the perfect driver as I am too cheap to buy one new. Customer Service NA Similar Products Used: Cobra F-Speed, Cleveland. |

r580 stock senior flex
they say you can't buy a golf swing, but this is about as close as you can get. i got this club on proline golf used for $37. what a deal. i took this thing to the range and didn't want to leave. im only 16 so i went for a senior flex, good choice for me. im consistantly hiting 200s rather then hitting absolute crap with my old knight. if you really want to take a step up for a low price, buy this thing.

I'm a 2.3 index for '07 and am an old salt with clubs. Have played the same Eye2's for over 20 years, but just recently swapped out my War Bird driver and 3 wood for TM's. Paid $35 for my 580 10.5 on eBay with a ProForce 65 X-Stiff. The accuracy I gained with the shaft and probably some club head design is just insane. Picked up a good 20 yards on average as well which I attribute to upgrading my 1993 War Bird technology and shaft dynamics. I flight the ball much lower now...beautiful. So, I'm on pay dirt more and picked up distance for chump change on eBay. Also bought the V-Steel 3 wood which I like, but will be upgrading the shaft to a ProForce 65 to get the ball flight down a bit.

I was playing a TM 540XD and/or a Titleist 983E UNTIL I tried this driver. The first time I hit it was on a 495 yard uphill par 5 and into a 15 mph wind. I had just hit the 983E and the wind pushed it towards the hazard. I had just purchased he used 580 for next to nothing on Ebay and picked it up that day. So, I thought I would hit a provisional (err...mulligan,ha!). I could not believe it when I hit the ball. The ball jumped off the clubface and went nearly 300 yards straight down the middle! Two holes later, I tried it again and also hit the 983E. The 580 was at least 20 yards longer. I hit on several more holes along with the 983E. On four of the six holes the 580 was longer and straighter. The most hard to believe thing about it is that the "engine" of the club is a True Temper Command steel shaft! This shaft is the lowest priced shaft True Temper makes. Wow! I'd like to see how this thing hits with a really good shaft.
