Golf Clubs � Golf Drivers � What Drives You?

If you want to get the best from your golf driver, read our comprehensive guide on what it is that really drives your golf club.

It is commonly known that most of the top players on the golf course are primarily known for their golf driving distance above all else. You may have all the other essential qualities of a great golfer, but if you're not driving your golf club over 250 yards, you'll find it hard to be really noticed in the game of golf.

 In the past 20 years, the range of golf drivers has increased dramatically and there are now a huge selection of golf drivers to choose from in today's market. Golf clubs have advanced in sweet spot technology, size, launch angle, composition, forgiveness, ball speed, aerodynamics and much more. Below is a comprehensive guide on golf drivers.

The material of a golf driver is a major consideration to take into account as it will dramatically affect the length of your shot. Golf clubs and their drivers come in the following materials:

Steel Golf Drivers � Steel headed golf drivers are heavier than titanium golf drivers, but their advantage is that they are cheaper, very durable and they offer a solid and consistent connection.

Titanium Golf Drivers � The titanium golf driver has been described as the biggest breakthrough in recent golf technology. Because titanium is so lightweight, manufacturers are able to produce golf drivers with larger heads. The larger heads enable golf clubs to increase their sweet spot and also, most importantly, increase the forgiveness of the golf driver. The forgiveness of a golf driver is an essential quality and titanium is able to offer a higher amount of forgiveness than any other material. Aside from the above, the other major advantage of a titanium golf driver is that the material is longer lasting and will resist damage from erosion or impact. The only disadvantage of this type of golf club is that it is expensive, however, the price reflects its performance so if high quality matters then this is the right option for you.

Composite Golf Drivers � This type of golf driver is a combination of titanium mixed with non-metal materials. The composite is often made of carbon which makes the golf driver very lightweight. By reducing the weight of the head, this golf driver is capable of offering more forgiveness and a larger sweet spot. This type of golf club is very popular with golf enthusiasts as it's not as expensive as the titanium golf driver, but it still has the ability to produce a large hitting area and further distanced shots.
