Which of the new big drivers do you like?
There are more choices every day out there for golf equipment. It used to be a lot simpler to find what you wanted and what felt comfortable to swing. But not so anymore. Anyway, I have been asked a lot lately about the 460cc drivers and which one I liked. So to lead off into the great golf weekend of the Memorial Day holiday. I’ll talk about one of my favorites.
I have hit a number of these big headed clubs and they, for the most part, are all forgiving. The one that so far I like the best is the Titleist 905R. Titleist has always made good drivers, but I have never carried one in my bag. The one thing that I really liked the most about the 905R was that it just didn’t look so monstrous sitting next to the golf ball. The design just seemed to make it appear less than “boulder” sized like some of the 460cc drivers.
The Titleist driver is not as forgiving as some, so I would not necessarily recommend it for a high handicap golfer. But it felt really smooth and solid to me when I swung the golf club. That is a personal preference. I don’t like a club that feels like it is so light that there isn’t a head on the shaft. This one isn’t heavy, but it’s not the lightest feeling driver of the several that I have hit.
Overall, if you are low handicapper, I would really encourage you to think seriously about this golf club from Titleist. If you are a mid handicap golfer, I would say to try one out before you buy it. It will probably come down to how it feels when you swing it.
So this one is my favorite. I will write about a few others after this long holiday weekend. Enjoy the holiday, play lots of golf, and thanks for visiting our site.

The Titleist is a good driver, but the Sasquatch is also a nice 460cc driver.
You might want to give it a try.
