i highly recommend the mizuno jpx800. i have had much success with it. i was a poor driver with little distance and now i hit the ball quite far and straight (sometimes!)

Hi Bradley, What driver & spec have you got at the mo?

Why do you want to change? Budget?

Dave CAC handed Geordie.

Try the one that you like the look of first as confidence is important, especially with the big stick.  But most of all go for a fitting when you have a shortlist of preferred models.

best thing to do - go to a golf shop with your budget and hit all the drivers in your price and see what your most comfortable with

My approach may not be to everyones liking, but I've tried a few drivers in my time and have finally got something I'm happy with.  I'm not a big hitter, so basically decided on a head shape I liked and used Dave Leys experience and went with his recommendation for a decent shaft.  So I've got an old, unfashionable Ben Hogan CS3 10.5° head and a Aldila DVS60 Regular shaft.  After scouring e-bay for bargains it probably worked out at about £90 all in with the shaft fitting.  It's done wonders for my accuracy and get a decent length out of it - obviously not up with the big hitters but good enough for me.

I just got a bargain, I bought the  new titty 910 D3 fitted with the rayon fubuki tour 63 regular. Retails for around £310 & I got it for £229 if i don't get on with it I will sell it on at either a profit or cost. The shaft retails for around £120!
