“felt really solid for a driver that's supposed to be marketed as budget”

A shockingly premium sub-£200 driver that actually produced more ball speed than the Titleist and lost only nine yards when paired with a Pro V1, though the stock combo spun wildly for him.

+ the facts · 5 pros · 2 cons
  • +Nearly 1 mph more ball speed than the far pricier Titleist
  • +Premium components: Project X EvenFlow shaft, Lamkin grip, quality leather head cover
  • +Carbon crown, titanium sole and adjustable hosel mirror premium tech
  • −Paired with the Kirkland ball it spun nearly 4,000 rpm and cost him about 30 yards of carry
  • −Soft stock shaft is the likely culprit and may need upgrading for faster players

For: Price-conscious golfers, ideally pairing it with a premium ball

Mixed

“if you hit it purposely out of the toe, it'll perform nicely”

Number five: the Costco driver still runs out to 250-279 yards for around £200, but spin is quirky enough that it performs better off the toe than out of the middle.

+ the facts · 3 pros · 2 cons
  • +Around £200 with a carbon crown and a nice traditional shape
  • +Still produced a 279-yard drive on test
  • +Playable distance even on poor strikes
  • −Spin too high (around 4,000 rpm) on centred strikes; it oddly performs best out of the toe
  • −Shaft swap only made a small difference

For: Recreational golfers who only play a few times a year
