I previously played a R580XD and no other driver came close distance and even forgiveness wise. It was almost impossible to mishit, even on an off day. I wish I could say the same for the other 13 clubs! I have always used TM drivers and earlier this year, I tried the R7 425 and 460 models. Nice enough but not a patch on the R580 XD. However, I have since bought a R7 Superquad, replaced the shaft with an Aldila NV 65 and boy does it go! Maybe not quite as fogiving as the R580 XD, but for me, it seems to produce a much more penetrating flight and when flushed, goes yards passed the R580 XD!
