TaylorMade R360 XD Driver Golf Club

This club comes in a few models, it was released originally as an R360 Ti, which I found a little bit easier to hit, and then later they released the R360XD, which is supposed to hit further than the standard Ti, but they are all pretty good.

It also was released with a bubble shaft, which was all the rage a few years back, which can be good, but I wouldn't recommend it because of the 'whip' it gives the club, and I found it harder to control or produce consistent shots. The feel of the club is better than the R540 or any of the later models, because of its flat low profile design, which hits straighter than a rounded large head. For instance, if you've ever hit an Orlimar Driver you'll know what I mean, it has the same characteristics of producing a powerful shot because it forces you not to overswing the club and concentrate on accuracy at bringing the club head to hit the ball with a square face.

This club is one of the best drivers I've ever used. Its much more easier to use and hit a long drive than current large head drivers. The reasons are that it forces you mainly to hit a consistant drive because of the size of the head, and the feel it gives you at address. A lot of the large heads of today are difficult to line up at address, except for the new r7, which is pretty good.

The club is best used with a grafalloy shaft preferably in a Pro Lite model, which encourages a low ball flight and usually more distance. It is sooo easy to hit long drives with this club.

It feels spectacular when hit flush and simply sweeps the ball soo easily. Its very traditional the head, but the R360 XD model is a little bulkier with a bit more mass and has a stronger look and feel to it, but I found it easier to hit more accuracy with the original R360 Ti. (Titanium)

And the great thing about this club is, that you can pick them up for a steal on ebay now, and put your on shaft in them for probably $100.
