- Ping G10 9.5 (S)
- Titleist 907 D2 9 (S)

I don't seem to gain any distance from them. I swing around 105MPH on average.

Today I picked up a Callaway Ft-F 8.5 (S) and I nailed it 305 on the fly 330 total, a good 15 yards further than the others I have tried. There really aren't any other clubs I can try and since this club is now only about $250 I'm thinking of buying it.. Has anyone had any luck gaining a little more from a different driver? I know all I can really do is swing faster but there's no way I'm going to be up around 130MPH anytime soon.
Get yourself on the launch monitor. I did it yesterday and averaged about 111mph with my driver and the only other drivers I tested that got me about the same speed were G10 and the 907 D2. Other drivers were all about 108. Also take into account your launch angle.
