Anyone hit either one of these clubs? Have a session on the swing monitor scheduled for tomorrow, and have narrowed it down to these two. I know every club suits very golfer differently, but it never hurts to hear others opinions!

You're gonna like the SLDR better.

I have had the Taylormade superfast, I think, for a good 8 years, and I loved it.

Finally decided to get a new one.
got the slider, hated it
returned it, got the Jetspeed, it was terrible
Returned it, now have a big bertha. Not crazy abut it, but it's not terrible.

All 3 sound terrible. All 3 feel heavier and just awkward when I swing them.

Probably hit at least 100 balls with each and could count on 1 hand how many went over 250 and straight.
I can pick up my beat up old superfast and drill it 250 and straight consistently right after swinging the other 3.

About to try the aeroburner.

I used to hit taylormade drivers. Go get a Cobra bio cell. Easily my favorite driver I've ever hit. So forgiving yet long as well

GTFO

The SLDR sucks. Big Bertha Alpha blows it away.

If they can dial it in perfectly for you, the SLDR is longer. Good luck with that though. Callaway is much easier to hit.

Calloway makes some of the easiest clubs to hit on the market and have for some time now

The new big Bertha is so easy to hit, one of my buddies just picked it up.

I like the way the big Bertha felt in my hands of the rack. Felt a lot lighter than the taylormade r7 I have been playing with. Seems like i would be able to increase my swing speed with it

I LOVE my Apex Irons. Easiest Irons I've ever owned to hit, but I can still shape shots with them. I've actually put the Razr Fit driver back in the bag. The Cobra Bio Cell went straight, but it spun SO MUCH, I lost my Nitro...

I'm curious about why you wanted a new driver.

Thought Bertha had a better feel, taylormade had a better flight

I bought the taylormade
