  I can't  find any reviews on this club.  Hoping someone will share their thoughts on this club!

  I'm currently at Level 91 and looking for an upgrade from my G20 Driver (Level 81).  I'm torn between the Level 88 Big Bertha, Level 89 SLDR, and Level 85 Nike Covert.

  What say you?

  I have not played the Big Bertha.  It came out after the SLDR.

  I have played the SLDR for several months now.  It is a very good driver with nice meter speed.

  It is a very straight driver.  Ball does not curve very much even when you miss the ding or in heavy winds.

  It is a lower boring driver and my only complaint is that you have to watch driving over tree on a few holes like Congressional.

  Can not go wrong with this driver and will keep until the R-1, Bertha 96 or Covert 100.

  My current driving average is 288 with this driver.  That include many times when I hit less than Driver on a few holes.

  Rent the L83 X-Hot hit it with FBS. 

  The Covert Nike is okay, very touchy with the dot. I'm using it now as my driver. I like it, it fades/draws really well. FBS it likes. Headwinds it hates very much. FTS RSG etc.. 320+ a lot of the time if you catch the groove. ;) Also early ding will land you in the crap pretty fast.

  SLDR I liked a lot.. Funny I found it great at lofting over trees.
