I need a new driver

After finally working myself out of a money slump, its time to celebrate! I haven't ho'ed a driver in a while, and I'm looking for something to try.

The main criteria is straight. Square to open face, and all the technology to make it go straight. Brand doesn't matter, but I'd like to keep it under 2 bills. What do you think?

Callaway FTi. Super straight. I've already sold 4 guys I play with on them and they couldn't be happier.

Under 2 bills tho, might be a push.

Clug, I have a HiBore XL Tour head that has only been at the range a couple of times if your interested. 8.5* + Magnetic Headcover.

I also have the Stock Fuji Gold Stiff shaft with the grip NIP as I pulled it first thing if you really want it. Currently has a Rockford Special TEE NV Stiff installed that I shimmed into it.

Sorry, the asterisk thing has really gotten under my skin.

I've been through a lot of drivers, and my Hibore XL is amazing. I'm almost tempted to try an XL Tour, but I can fade the regular XL if I want to. In the hands of a better player the XL Tour would be money.

I don't know much about the OEM shaft, but Rock knows.

Buy the head only and get a better shaft into that thing. Solid perfomer, the XL tour.

LOL, I was just thinking the same thing. 20 minutes later and you've bought a new driver.

We need to get our politicians hooked up on this board. Maybe they'd learn how to get things done.
