3. Tips for Selecting a Golf Driver
 When choosing a driver, a golfer must take care to select the most
appropriate head size, loft, and shaft flex. Beginning golfers tend to favor a
larger head, as these clubs have a broader sweet spot and are more
forgiving when the player strives for distance. More experienced players
may prefer the added control of a smaller head.

 Higher loft also allows a golfer to achieve more distance, particularly if the
club has a larger head. A loft over 10 degrees typically helps to achieve
faster lift as well as longer travel. A more flexible graphite shaft helps to
maximize distance as well, particularly for golfers with slower swings. A more
powerful player may prefer a stiffer steel shaft to improve accuracy. The
ultimate deciding factor, however, should be the player's comfort when he
or she swings the driver. If the driver feels comfortable during swing and
impact, it tends to secure better results for the golfer.
