Golf Drivers

Why buy your golf driver at Golf Avenue?

Golf clubs can be expensive, especially when looking at some of the elite golf drivers on the market today. Brands like TaylorMade, Nike, and Callaway are often featured on the World Tour by the best players. Most people only admire these brand-new perfectly crafted drivers, but now, we allow you to own one of them for yourself by buying a used golf driver through our Certified Pre-Loved Program.

At Golf Avenue, we have numerous experts who can meet you on a call and discuss your specific needs, so you know when to change your driver. A one-on-one video call with one of our pros will allow you to understand more about each driver and how they would affect your performance on the golf course and finding the best golf driver for sale.

We offer a wide range of the best pre-loved golf clubs that would ensure you are on par (pun intended) with professionals like Rory McIlroy and Cameron Smith. The only difference is that you can get your favorite left-handed driver for much cheaper and fully customized to meet your specific needs and swing style. This can also be combined with some of the other clubs we offer, allowing you the opportunity to create your own set.

Choosing the right driver

You can always book a call with one of our experts to find the right driver. However, here is a small breakdown of the essential features to keep in mind when browsing through our selection and looking at some of the specs to find your next driver:

Skill Level

One of the reasons you need our expert assessment is that the driver you choose is heavily impacted by your skill level. Maybe you need a driver to fix a slice, or to improve your swing speed? It is important to have a driver that addresses some of the quirks in your game and helps improve your shots. Club fitting is not only for beginners, and experts can also benefit more from it.

Head Size

The biggest club size the USGA approves is the 460cc club. Keep in mind that the size of the club head is measured in volume. The larger the club head you choose, the more forgiving the club tends to be. However, you also need to have a good swing to use the momentum it generates. Even though it is more forgiving, not everyone would need the biggest club head.

Head Shape

The head shape is something that varies from person to person and some people prefer to have a different head shape. If you must choose between the round and the square club head, the round club head is much better for beginners. They tend to be more forgiving and less likely to snag the ground before affecting the ball.

Loft

The angle of the clubface, which often shows upwards is what golfing experts refer to as the "loft". Loft helps you get the ball elevated and the more loft you have, the better your height could be when playing a round of golf. For the most part, your drivers would range in the loft from 8-12 degrees depending on the club.

Shaft Flex

The shaft flex and the materials of the club go hand in hand. Most golf club shafts are made from either steel or graphite in the modern era. The shaft flexibility is often important and would be affected by your swing speed. The faster you generate speed when you swing the club, the less flex you need.

Slower swing speeds can rely on shaft flexibility to help them generate additional momentum through the swing. The flexible shaft would make it much easier for the player to generate the momentum needed to perfect the speed of their swing.

Best brands for golf drivers

What makes a quality golf brand is a brand that caters to everyone. A brand like TaylorMade might be expensive, but they offer a host of different products for all players and handicap levels. The idea is to find a brand that feels comfortable for your needs and Golf Avenue offers you access to all the best brands and the not-so-popular brands:

TaylorMade

TaylorMade strives to create the best drivers and golf clubs in the world. The brand goes by the slogan; “more carbon, more forgiveness”. The idea is to make sure any player can have a functional golf club to attain excellent distances and improve their handicap. The best TaylorMade Drivers you should consider are the Stealth 2 Plus Driver, MyStealth 2 Plus Driver, and the traditional Stealth Driver.

Callaway

Callaway is probably the brand you have heard about the most and this is because they cater to golfers of all skill levels and playing styles. Callaway does not have one specific feature that makes them great, but rather the combination of all their features. They feature prominently on the PGA Tour. Some of the best Callaway Drivers you can buy are the Paradym driver, Rogue ST MAX driver, and the Women’s Paradym X driver.

Titleist

Forgiveness is something that all golfers try to combine with speed and distance on the golf course. Titleist is known for creating forgiving drivers, which are suitable for beginners and low handicappers. Their range of high-quality drivers is seen by many of the pros if you are an avid golf supporter. Some of the best Titleist drivers they offer are the TSi4, TSi3, and TSi2 drivers.

Cobra

Bryson DeChambeau and Rickie Fowler are two of the biggest ambassadors when it comes to Cobra drivers. Cobra drivers are some of the most forgiving drivers on the market today and the sound upon connection is just “sweet”. If a Cobra driver is what you are looking for, you should look at the AEROJET, AEROJET MAX, and Cobra LTDx drivers.

Ping

A big debate and competition among golfing brands are which driver offers the best combination of distance and forgiveness. Ping claims to have the formula sorted and no matter your swing speed or style, they will have an efficient driver that would make life easier for you. The best Ping drivers are the G425 MAX, G430 MAX, and G410 Plus Drivers.

Mizuno

Mizuno might have become a popular brand due to the quality and design of their irons. However, they also offer incredible clubs through the spectrum of different clubs you can need. As an entry-level player, Mizuno is the ideal brand to consider. The best Mizuno drivers are the ST-Z 220 Driver, ST-X 220 Driver, and the STG Driver.

Cleveland

Cleveland is not the most popular brand on the world tour scene, but they are renowned for incredible technology and innovation in the design and forgiveness of its top drivers. Golfers like Brooks Koepka are players that heavily rely on Cleveland for their top drivers. The Cleveland Launcher XL Driver and Launcher XL Lite are some of their best options.

Nike

Nike golf clubs quickly rose to prominence through the use of the legendary Tiger Woods. Since winning a few majors, Nike drivers have become increasingly valuable. Nike often used experts like Tiger to assist them in designing the best drivers. The Nike SASQUATCH SUMO Driver, NIKE SQ 5000 Driver, and Nike VR-S Covert Drivers often stand out.

PXG

While some golfing brands are geared toward producing specific club styles, PXG focuses on producing all-around golf clubs, which work for golfers of all skill levels and swing styles. They have variable flex clubs that offer incredible speed through the swing. Some of the best PXG drivers include the PXG 0211, and the brand-new PXG 0311 Gen5 drivers.

Trade-in your used golf driver

One of the reasons that many people often stay away from starting golf is the price of the clubs. However, Golf Avenue offers a fair trade-in program, which enables you to build credits and buy your next driver for much cheaper. You can easily and quickly upgrade with the best golf driver online and have a look at our pre-owned golf driver options.
