Review of 2009 Golf Drivers

by Golf Caddie

As the golf game evolves, so do golf club manufacturers. These days, there are so many different companies making clubs and they all make many different models. How are people supposed to find the right ones?

So many different companies with so much technology. Continue reading for more popular club manufacturers.

Cobra Golf has Camilo Villegas as their sponsor who is playing so well. The most expensive driver they carry is the Cobra L5V which promises maximum face area for its look.

Adams Golf sponsors Tom Watson and is known with its amazing hybrid technology. The Adams Speedline though is its great new driver that has captured the hearts of many, including the Hot List 2009 as it won gold. The rounded sole takes getting used to because it might rock back and forth at address off the tee but once you get used to it, expect to hit it looooong.

Callaway Golf is really pushing the envelope with its high end drivers (all its 2009 models are over $350 a piece). They made two drivers. One with a more traditional shape (FT-9) and one a square shape (FT-IQ). Both are amazingly long and Phil is already using the FT-9. He's not trying crazy things like two drivers though anymore but who knows as he might use the drivers to chip.

Nike Golf catapulted into the golf scene with the endorsement of Tiger Woods. I'm sure they are hard at work and Tiger must love being able to test all the different options and help them in designing the golf clubs to golf balls.

Titleist is arguably one of the most popular brands in golf. While the Titleist 909D Comp only received a silver award in this year's The Hot List, the 909D2/D3 won amazing awards and captured the gold. It also the leader in look/sound/feel category of all drivers tested in the over $350 series.

Ping engineered a low spin, low launch angle driver in the Ping Rapture V2. With its nFlight fitting system, you will for sure find a great shaft combo that fits you perfectly with this driver. The green on the Ping Rapture V2 driver is great as well.

Taylormade has always been a huge sponsor on the PGA Tour for drivers. The new Taylormade Burner is a great driver and it's even available at a discount at Costco. The driver is a high launch, relatively low spin driver that will fit golfers that seem to hit down on the ball.

Cleveland Golf is a great brand ever since it started the Launcher series. I still play the Launcher 460 Comp and cannot find a driver head that works better for my swing. To say Cleveland makes good clubs is a huge understatement. I love Cleveland Golf.
