  What is the best driver currently right now?

   

  What is the scale on the Taylormade putter?  It looks like 9 or 10 ft but I'm not sure.  Ex:  On the starter set it is 6 ft.

  Best Driver?  Hmmm... the longest one is the TM R9 9.5 degree rated at 255 yards.  But check nivlacs chart for a good comparison.

  as far as the scale for the putter, I believe it is 10,20,25 (I know it seems odd but that's the truest I've found)

  Thanks AvatarLee!  But what, in your personal experience, have you guys found to be the best driver.  I looked at the chart and looks like the Burner or the G10 would be best, but I would like opinions.

  Well, personally, I like the R9 9.5 because it's long and I can control it.  But if you have meter issues, you may want to get something with more forgiveness like the PING Rapture V2, you give up 10 yards but you don't have to worry as much about hitting the line.

  And with the new balls, in particular the top-of-the-line one, they slow down the meter speed a bit.  Making the R9 easier to hit.
