I've read enough of your posts in here to give you credit that you know what you're talking about in regards to this game, especially about equipment.

The other night in league guys noticed that I was using an older driver, and implying that my sometimes, shorter, off-line drives were due to outdated equipment. Other guys I've been paired up with have mentioined it also. Last year I used a titanium driver, but it was relatively small, probably in the 360 cc range. My buddy busted the head off the shaft taking my bag out of his trunk.

So I went back to my old Taylor-Made-Copperhead knockoff, which was probably even smaller, I'd guess in the 350 cc range. I got no problem with this club, when I make good contact I can get it out there about 250, sometimes farther. But other guys of equal or lesser ability seem to have an advantage off the T-box.

I think I know what you'll say about my choice of driver, that I should look to a larger size. But does it really make that much difference? I've only hit a big driver a couple of times, never enough to get used to one.

Given that, which clubs do you like in the 200-300 dollar range (including used of course, I work for the gubment, damnit!) I saw a used Callaway ERC at the pawn shop for $200, wondered about biting on that.

Any thoughts you have on the matter would be appreciated.
