Cliffs:

Callaway Epic Max LS, Titleist TSi2, Cobra Radspeed, Tour Exotics EXS Pro, and PXG 0211 all did really well. The Ping G425 is still the best slice killer. The TM Sim2 did best for pure ball speed but didn't fare as well in the accuracy metrics.

RIP $500.

Everything seems draw biased now which sucks. I hit almost all of the new stuff and Calloway was really quick, but I had to anti draw swing it to make it go relatively straight. Sim is better than Sim 2 as well, imo.

I ended up with TSi

One good thing about Tour Exotics is the price - it's under $400 retail, which is rare for a new driver in this day and age. The PXG 0211 is only $250 retail, which is a crazy good value.

Also MGS threw last year's Ping G410 LST in the testing mix and it finished in the Top 10 in most categories. That's probably one of the best drivers to buy right now for pure value.

Drivers have gotten really expensive, but they are also offering $250 retail shafts as stock options. The super majority of players can get a plenty good shaft for no upgrade.

I paid an obscene amount of money for my driver and irons from club champion.

Wound up with the Callaway. Hopefully it works.

Have to be really careful. New Sim2 comes with a Ventus option, but its not the full velecore Ventus.

Look on GolfWRX Classifieds. I had someone offer to swap a TSi3 head for my SIM Max head over the weekend

Don't know why they used the Ping SFT model, it is designed to correct a slice.

They should have tested the Ping LST against the others.

The 425 LST is there - I think they just highlighted the SFT as the best club for slice correction.

The G425 LST ranked 10th in overall testing. The G410 LST ranked 7th.
