| Years ago, golf was played with persimmon and laminated woods. However, these clubs were not very forgiving on mis-hits. Fortunately, today's oversized titanium golf drivers allow you to come away with a salvageable shot. Titanium is very strong and very light, which allows manufacturers to make oversize clubheads out of titanium while maintaining the same weight as a traditional size clubhead. Titanium golf drivers make the ball go a greater distance on off-center hits. They are also more durable than wooden woods. Most titanium woods are composed of very lightweight graphite shafts. These drivers were first developed to assist the average player or short hitter in getting added distance off the tee. However, pro golfers have also benefited from playing with titanium drivers. The greater the loft, the more control you will have. A titanium driver hits the ball higher than expected. This is because the center of gravity is farther back in the club head because the shaft is significantly longer. Because of the length of titanium clubs, make sure that you choose a club that gives you an optimal combination of accuracy and distance. Without accuracy and precision, distance is completely useless. The shaft is your most important component. Steel shafts will give you more accuracy than graphite, while graphite shafts give you more distance. That's because steel flexes less than graphite at impact. Graphite's light weight makes it ideal for woman and senior players. This also makes it better for those players experiencing back problems. Some leading manufacturers of quality golf equipment, including golf drivers, include Callaway, Titleist, and TaylorMade, among many others. |
