i work at a golf store and would strongly recommend the cleveland hibore xl, easy to hit and real forgiving for an average handicapper. another great club we have is the tour edge exotics, kinda pricey but unbelieveable and most people havent even heard of it. i think nike sucks in general and wouldn't recommend one of them. another top seller is the taylor made burner. its an inch longer than normal drivers to get some more distance on the ball and has the bigger moi you can have. its like the square drivers but not square, very good and easy to hit. the burner and hibore are our top sellers this year so far but i think the exotics might be the best unknown driver on the market. gl and ask questions if you got any be happy to help
All the major brand large headed(460cc) drivers are about the same. The mistake most beginners make is they don't get enough loft(10.5 degrees or higher) and they use a shaft that is too stiff. Go to a golf store(like Golf Galaxy) and try out some different models that look and feel good to you. They will have plenty of used drivers that will fit you just fine and will cost around $150. Spend the money you save on a couple of lessons. Good Luck
I agree, get the biggest head driver you can find. And get at least 10.5 degree of loft. For myself, I've found that I get a lot less of the dreaded side spin with the higher lofted drivers. And whatever you do get the right flex shaft. Even if you have a clubhead the size of a broom, your going to hit it in the trees about everytime if you don't have the proper flex of shaft for your swing speed. And If you haven't already done it, get your swing speed tested before you go out and buy anything.
If youre just beginning why go for broke.Buy some preowned clubs (but definitely include an oversized driver).Its easy to figure out what quality and whats not and the market is flooded w/ deals on good clubs.Lots of them hardly used because folks just started to play and got fed up with it.
With that being said my Cobra Comp is pure joy to hit and as big as a small child.
