I would seriously look at the used Ping G series woods. You can find them at your price point and they have a huge face and high launch angle. Very good drivers that have aged well.
I'm looking the G20, G25, and G30. Looks like the G25 gets into the adjustable category. Worth it to go in for the G25 or higher?
Also, came across this Callaway. Adjustable club, good price.

I love my G25, not quite as long as some of my buddies other drivers but far more consistent and forgiving.

So on the TaylorMade SLDR, I found a review that says "Pros: The SLDR has a center of gravity that is lower and more forward than any driver TaylorMade has ever produced. That allows golfers to launch the ball higher and with less spin, which is the key to longer drivers."
Most of the comments here have said it's a lower ball flight. Weird.

from the OT golf pros who regularly put it out there over 300.

Thanks for the advice. There's a golfsmith in my neighborhood that I'll hit to get a feel for the specifics.

You can probably hit it 300
You probably don't "average" 300 or anywhere close

I average 300 and it's not a debate

Since I began tracking my shots with golf tags gps, I have hit the driver 32 times on 4 different courses. I have a long of 339, a median of 298 and an average of 296.

Let me guess your scoring average is 65 as well? Everyone on the Internet is long or claims to be anyways.....

When I play a lot I shoot mid 70s, when I don't I shot low to mid 80s.

Sorry about not responding, I have been crazy busy.
A. All of the ping g series drivers are good clubs. I'm not sure about which offers adjustability. I'm not into the adjustable clubs a lot, you need to get close to start with and a degree can help but finding a good starting point is key.
B. I actually really liked the feel of the Razr fit driver when I tested it out. I tried the green one that was the "tour" or something but had a nice solid feel to it. This comes from a guy that never liked callaway anything, I had an old king cobra steel head then on to titleist drivers. Now I play a Miura sit that is just flat out nasty when I connect well but I am, and always have been, a poor driver overall.
