Link above is the 2011 GD hot list.

Not sure about Taylor Made's white enamel on their drivers...

I am looking to get a new driver, thinking about getting the PING G10 at golfsmith.com for $179, I have read some review about the G15 and some people are saying it is no better than the G10.

I am also looking at a 2i or 3i hybrid. tgw.com has cleveland launchers for $60.00 right now. Anyone with suggestions here would be great because I have never owned a hybrid.

What new clubs is everyone else looking at this year? Thoughts on any new models?

While I love Wilson's irons, their drivers have always been underwhelming.

Too expensive, plus I need to improve my game before going to something like that. Hopefully this summer I can average 1.5 rounds a week. Last year I probably averaged .5.

What about going to Golfworks in Newark and hit 5 or 10 with different lofts and shaft flexes and see if you like any of them first?

I'm a big fan of the Nike Machspeed black. Was able to try it towards the end of last year when I was in Arizona (prototype demo or something) with the extra stiff shaft, and boy did that thing feel good.


You can snag it on ebay for around $200 right now if anyone's looking for a new driver.
