     You can find wide selection of certified Callaway Pre-Owned golf drivers - Big Bertha 460, FT-5 Tour Series, FT-i Tour, Big Bertha Fusion FT-2, X-460 Tour, Big Berth driver (also called 1 wood) is the club that we pay most attention because it is the longest, biggest and most expensive golf clubs in the golf bag. Due to the technology advancement in golf, golf driver design has reached a very high standard. With newer, bigger and oversize golf drivers, it has made driving much easier and helped you to hit the ball longer. 

      Golf driver is mainly used to off the tee at par 4s and par 5s but they are some Pro using it off the fairway or for chipping around the fringe. While golf driver can gives you the longest distance in the golf course, unfortunately, golf driver is also the hardest golf club to control. Even some professional golfers are struggling with their golf drivers too. Since it is the toughest clubs to master, it is important to choose a used golf driver that fits you. There are few areas of consideration when choosing a used golf driver that suits you:

Golf Driver Club Head Size

       Club head comes in three different sizes: standard, midsize and oversized.

Head DriversHead Driver03Head Driver 2

Standard size - Standard size club head golf drivers usually have a measurement of approximately 150 cubic centimeters. As the club head size is the smallest, it has the smallest sweet spot. As a result, standard size club head golf driver requires more accurate hits. However, it is easier to handle and it is best suited to advanced players. 

Midsize - Midsize club head falls between standard and oversized with approximately 195 cubic centimeters. Hence, it offers a medium size sweet spot.

Oversized - Oversized club head is the biggest club head with up to 250 cubic centimeters in size. Oversized club heads golf driver is more forgiving. It is very much like the oversized tennis racquet. The enlarge 'sweet spot' produces maximum distance even with off-center contacts. Beginner or novice golfers are recommended to use oversized club head golf driver.

Golf Driver Club Head Material

         There are two types of common materials used in golf driver club heads: Titanium and Stainless Steel.

Titanium - Titanium is the most expensive material due to its lightweight and excellent strength. Titanium is therefore only used in the highest quality golf driver. A larger driver club head design is possible due to its lighter weight, hence creating a larger sweet spot that is more forgiving. In the market today, you can also find other club head material such as Titanium-Alloy (Ti-Alloy). Ti-Alloys drivers are actually very cheap Aluminum product with only some trace elements of Titanium and they are commonly used in beginner or junior driver. So don't mix up between Titanium-Alloy with Titanium. 

Stainless Steel - Stainless steel (17-4ph stainless steel or 431 stainless steel) is cheaper but slightly heavier than titanium club head. Due to its heavier club heads, the club head size is usually smaller which translate into smaller sweet spot. Keep in mind that distance is a product of mass and speed. Ideally, you want the heaviest mass that you can swing and control at the fastest speed. That is the reason why advance players prefer to use stainless steel club head driver.

Golf driver shaft

       There are two common shafts available in the market: Graphite and Steel

Graphite - Graphite shafts are more expensive and lighter than steel. As graphite shaft is lighter, it allows a heavier club heads while making the overall golf club weight lighter to be possible. As a result, graphite shaft driver allows an average golfer to swing the club faster, which translates into more distance. Moreover, graphite shafts also have the benefits of better vibration absorption, ease of swing and create a better 'feel' to your shots.

Steel - Steel shafts are cheaper and heavier than graphite shafts. It is commonly used by most of the Tour pro as it offers more control.

Golf driver loft

       Loft is the angle of the golf club face that determines the ball trajectory and distance. Golf driver has the lowest loft among all the golf clubs. In general, a golf driver has a loft between 7 to 12 degrees. 

Low loft (less than 10 degrees) - lower lofted golf drivers is more suitable for low handicap and experienced players with faster swing speed. 

High loft (more than 10 degrees) - the fact that lower loft tend to amplify any inaccurate hit, so regular player (especially novice golfers) should play with higher lofted golf drivers with loft angle of 10 degrees or higher.

Golf driver length

     Golf driver comes in three different club lengths:

Standard - The standard length of driver is 43 - 44 inches. The standard length has increased over the years and it is longer than in the past. The standard length for women is 43 inches now. A few years ago, that was the standard length for a men's driver.  

Mid-length - Mid length driver range from 45 - 46 inches.

Long - More than 46 inches. The extra driver length could help to hit the ball farther but at the expense of control.

      What golf driver length do you need? Golfers come in different heights and arms length. In addition, different golfers have different addressing posture. All these factors need be considered to determine your golf driver length. You can get the help from your pro to find the right driver length. Alternatively, club fitting is the ideal way to find the perfect length that fits you.

Golf Driver Buying Guide

Driver4   Drivers 5

Short game wizardry and putting accuracy may be modern golfing essentials, but if you are not whacking drives over 250 yards, you are losing out. All the top players are now known primarily for their driving distance before any other stat. With advances in driver technology and the general fitness of a 21st century golfer, are we still driving for show?

When someone brings up the subject of golf technology, immediately we think about the huge headed drivers that cover pro shop floors across the world. Hard to imagine that is only 20 years since the majority of professionals would tee up a persimmon driver.

Advances in sweet spot technology, size, launch angle, composition, forgiveness, ball speed and aerodynamics are just some of the categories that the top manufactures now spend millions of pounds researching and developing. The result to us is the vast array of drivers on the market. We are spoilt for choice as to what driver we should use in today' market, and finding the right one can open to door 20 more yards or perhaps being able to get up to that testing par 5 in two!

The following is a description of everything you need to know about drivers and the drivers that we think are the best under certain criteria:

 

Materials

Steel

Steel headed drivers are slightly less expensive but heavier than the more modern titanium drivers. More traditional looking and metallic, they have a smaller head due to the increased weight of the steel, and the relative weakness of the metal means manufacturers had to limit the headsize. Very durable however, and still offers a solid, consistent connection.

Titanium

Probably the biggest breakthrough in recent golf technology was the development of the titanium driver. The relatively lightweight head allows manufacturers to produce larger headed drivers, which consequently increases the sweet spot. Not only does the larger size increase the sweet spot, but also the forgiveness of the club will be greater. The forgiveness of a driver is essential when playing with it, and titanium offers the most forgiveness of all the materials. The ability to hit decent shots from an off centre connection can save many golfers several shots a round. Titanium is also a long lasting material that will resist damage from impact or corrosion. The only draw back in titanium is that it is the most expensive material in driver technology that is represented in the price of titanium drivers.

Composite

drivercompositeA composite driver is a driver that combines non-metal materials with titanium. The advantage of this type of driver is that the composite part of the driver is very lightweight as it uses materials such as carbon, so reduces the weight of the driver.

The crown of the club may be carbon or some new drivers have the entire rear section of the driver crafted from carbon, leaving just the titanium face to hold the weight and strength of the driver. Therefore by reducing the overall weight of the head, makers can centre the weight of the driver nearer the face, offering more forgiveness and a larger sweet spot.

Mix that with the titanium core that produces explosive distance and an increased sweet spot. Becoming more and more popular with manufacturers the composite driver is the lightweight option that doesn't give up distance by using a titanium face. Which means the head is fairly lightweight, but the face is still solid and offers a large hitting area.

Terminology

Launch Angle

The launch angle of a driver is the angle at which the ball is struck into the air from the driver, measured from the ground. Most drivers will have a launch angle of between 11 and 18 degrees under testing. It is important to find the right launch angle to produce the maximum amount of distance from your swing. The perfect launch angle will maximise both carry and roll.

Headsize

The headsize of a driver is the size of everything below the shaft. It is measured in cubic centimetres. The legal limit for a driver is 460cc set by the R&A.

Moment Of Inertia (MOI)

Moment of Inertia is the term applied to a club head's resistance to twisting when the ball is struck. For example, your swing is a little off and you hit the ball on the toe of the club head. A club head with a higher MOI will twist less as a result of the miss-hit, creating a better chance that the ball will still go where you intended and with less loss of distance. It is a strong indication of the "forgiveness" of a club head - that is, the extent to which a good result can be achieved from a less than ideal contact with the ball. Further increases to MOI could reduce the challenge of the game by reducing the skill required to hit the ball straight. In addition, that could also result in an increase in average driving distance by reducing the likelihood that swinging faster will produce a poor result.

Moment of Inertiais a physical property that can be expressed as a numerical measurement. On April 11 2006, the USGA announced that the maximum allowed MOI has been revised to 5,900 g-cm2 (32.259 oz-in2) with a tolerance of /- 100 g-cm2 . The limit is on moment of inertia around the vertical axis through the club head center of gravity

COR

The COR, or Coefficient of Restitution , is the measurement of the amount of energy transferred between the clubface and the ball at impact. Specifically, the COR measures the how well the ball rebounds off of the clubface. The higher the COR, the more energy is retained and the ball rebounds farther. If it were possible to transfer all of the energy in the clubhead to the ball, the COR would be 1.00 (100%) The USGA has set a maximum COR value that a club can have at 0.83. This means that there can be no more than an 83% energy transfer from the clubhead to the ball.

The R&A currently allow drivers with a COR of 0.89 to be used in general play by amateurs. However as of 1 January 2008 it will reduce to the USGA limnit of 0.83. However for Tour professionals and elite amateurs in the R&A juristiction, the 0.83 limit already applies now.

Length & Weight

Many people could be forgiven for believing the length and weight of a driver is not important. This is untrue though. Drivers vary from 43-47 inches long typically. Increasing the length of your driver will increase you driver distance, but you will sacrifice control and is recommended only to experienced players. The reason for the increased length is the simple physics that the clubhead has further to travel to the ball, therefore picking up speed for longer. Similarly the lighter the driver, the faster the players swing speed will be, producing more distance. If you desire more control on your drives a heavier driver will offer more control.

Plugs/Weights

The latest breakthrough in driver technology is the incorporation of plugs or weights in the head of drivers. Manufacturers discovered this technology in the late 90s with tungsten inserts that were placed behind the face of the driver to add to the sweet spot. The position of the weight affects the way in which it works. The further the weight is away from the face, the higher the ball flight it will produce. In more recent years, companies have begun adding removable weights. Usually, up to four weights can be placed in the head of drivers to offer players different shapes and velocities. The rules of golf mean that the weights cannot be changed whilst in a round, but can be adjusted between rounds to change the player's ball flight.
