Which Driver 460cc?

I am thinking about getting a new driver.

I was thinking about the...

Cleveland launcher 460 ti for about 160 shipped on rockbottom

What about the other 2nd tier clubs

Is the Callaway x460 worth the money?

What about the R5 ?

Are the cobra speed's any good?

Right now I got an old Great Big bertha with a light flex on it so I need to get stiff I think.

Out of those I would either go for the R5 or the X460. Both are great clubs and both as equally as forgiving. Out of the two, the R5 can be had for about $100 cheaper than the X460 and imo performs just as well. The launcher Ti460 didn't fit me well so I didn't care for it much and ended up selling it. Also, do a search on drivers, there are lots of topics and opinions on the various drivers out there plus a review section

The Cleveland Launcher 460 for $150 is a darned good buy. I don't think you will in reality do much better with any other driver, except to spend more money. I still play a Launcher 330, and I have hit the 400 and 460 also. The only difference I can see or feel is that the larger club head is a bit more forgiving. But I love my older 330. If I ever replace it, I'm pretty sure a Launcher 460 is what I will get.

I have been using the Cleveland Launcher 460 for the past year, or so. I love it.

When I went looking for a new driver I demoed 5 drivers. My choice was the Cleveland. I am not disappointed, but that is me. It can be a matter of individual preference.

From the ones that you listed the R5 is the best and most forgiving. However if your thinking about spending $300 on the Callaway go hit the Nike SQ. the SQ is the best driver out there right now.

I am going to the golf store tomorrow!
Today at the range I was hitting my Great big bertha and the head just flew off!
Guess it was a sign from God...
