Best Golf Drivers Created In 2011


So what are the best golf drivers for 2011? With so much competition in the golf driver manufacturing industry these days, and so much money being spent by the big companies such as Callaway, Nike, Titleist and TaylorMade, etc on research and developing the latest cutting edge technology, it can be a tough task trying to work out what the best golf drivers created for 2011 are.
There are certainly three tour proven drivers that instantly spring to mind and would definitely be considered as candidates for the best golf drivers for 2011, by the majority of golfers who have played with them. These include the Callaway RAZR Hawk, the Nike SQ Machspeed Black and the TaylorMade R11 Drivers.
The RAZR Hawk Driver is Callaway's very latest creation and has revolutionized the way the best golf drivers are manufactured. By using a brand new form of material called Forged Composite which is much lighter and stronger than Titanium, Callaway engineers have been able to reduce and optimize the thickness of the walls.
With this technology, along with their Hyperbolic Face Technology, which optimizes the thickness of the entire length of the clubface, to produce a more efficient effective hitting area (sweetpot), Callaway are able to produce a driver that has much lighter and stronger clubhead, yet still maintains an extremely high moment of inertia.
The result is a driver that provides faster clubhead speeds and faster ball speeds, along with more forgiveness, which ultimately produces greater distance and accuracy off of the tee, especially on those miss-hit shots.
Nike latest creation and their best golf driver to date is the SQ Machspeed Black Driver. This is full of their very latest ground-breaking technology, including their award winning STR8-FIT Technology that allows golfers to independently adjust the loft and lie angles so that they can perfectly match their own individual swing styles. This is a great enhancement for any players looking to combat any hooking or golf slicing issues they may have.
Nike have also improved the aerodynamics with their PowerBow design and sole diffuser to dramatically reduce the effects of wind resistance and drag, as well as lowering and deepening the center of gravity, with their Tour Proven Square Technology, to increase the moment of inertia and clubhead stability.
The TaylorMade R11 Driver not only offers golfers something completely different in terms of looks, with a pure white crown and contrasting black face for easy alignment, but also utilizes the most up to date technology that TaylorMade have ever created.
Including their Flight Control Technology that allows you to easily adjust loft and launch angles, their Adjustable Sole Plate, that allows you to independently change face angles without it effecting the loft and launch angles, and their Moveable Weight Technology, which gives you the option to fine tune your ball flight to promote either a draw or neutral shape, making it one of TaylorMade's best golf drivers to date.

Holmes so far.  Holmes has taken over the mantle of the hardest ball masher from perennial champ Bubba Watson.  The 29 year-old from Kentucky is averaging 317.2 yards per drive in 2011 (toward the end of June) and his longest smash has been 339 yards so far.

What club does J.B. use off the tee?  It's a Callaway FT Tour Driver.

Longest Drive Ever

According to Guinness World Records, what is the longest golf drive ever? Do you know? What if someone told you that in 1974, a 64-year old gentleman playing in the U.S. National Seniors Championship walloped a ball an astounding 515 yards? Well, that is the case.

Mike Austin crunched the ball 65 yards past the flag-stick at the goading of his playing partner at the time, to let one rip. You can read more about his feat in this article in Travel and Leisure Magazine.
