Got one of these through from Pricebuster on Tuesday. Had a £10 loyalty voucher so it only cost me £54. Went to the range on Wednesday after work to give it a whirl.
Let me say that I thought the square driver thing was just another gimmick. I don't like the Nike one and I've never hit a Callaway driver well, plus at well over 200 bananas they were not for me.
I bought the Slugger(great name) because it was cheap, the good write ups it had and the shaft was a VS Proto, which is a top end shaft.
All I can say is that if anybody is thinking of changing their driver or has to because of the new laws, try one of these.
If you put a decent swing on it, and most times I do as I play off 7, it just goes straight and long. Ten yards longer than the G10 that I tried out against it and much straighter. There's a great feel from the shaft and I always thought that I knew where the clubhead was.
It's in the bag for the season, best driver I've hit in ages and I've tried a few. Yonex Ciberstar, R7 425, Cobra F speed, Cleveland Hibore to name but a few.
If your not a golf snob, get a Slugger.
- for a good 4 months now and it's a great club. Just as good as any of the more expensive clubs i've hit. Pretty loud, but no where near as loud as some of the nike clubs. Got mine for £40 brand new with the aldila shaft.
