As with all things, you get what you pay for, and you can often spend as much or as little as you like (with quality corresponding to how low or high you go). The golf driver is no exception to this rule.
Golf drivers can be found priced anywhere from $45-50 to $2,800. Of course, the high end clubs have a lot of fancy design and materials used, and if you are serious about golf and have a big budget, they can be fun to own.
But for most golfers, a mid-priced driver ($200-$300) is more than sufficient and will be a quite good club. Do some research, determine your price range, and then find the best club for your range.
A golf driver is one of the two most important clubs in any golfer’s bag (the other being the putter). The driver gets you off the tee, down the fairway and, hopefully, in great position to get on the green within another stroke or two.
A driver is a wood, so it has a flat face and a balanced but lightweight head. Look for a driver that is the right length for you, with a steel, titanium, or composite head and graphite shaft. (Old drivers actually have real wooden heads, but can’t really compete with modern equipment.)
Prices for a driver range $45-$2,500, but for most golfers, a good driver runs $200-$300. Choose a price range and shop around for the best driver within that budget.
