| camera2's Full Review: Taylormade& R580 Xd Driver |
Compared with Ping G2 --R580 much easier to handle, better contact and control, greater launch angle, feel of solid contact which is missing in the PING. 440 size eliminates some of the issues with the Ping 460cc size
Compared to TaylorMade R7 ---R580 does not demand the higher swing speed, more forgiving, preset for optimun performance, whoa less expensive.
Compared to Cobra 460SZ--this club is not as cumbersome, better feel and workability, better sounding.
Compared the 10 degree and the 12 degree with a regular flex shaft no difference in yardage but the 12 was much more consistant for me. I average 215-220 with this club and was hitting 200 with the Callaway C4. I also used a 380 XD on a number of rounds but found the 580 much more forgiving.
On miss hits you get 70-80 percent of what you would of if you hit it clean. Out there left and right 20 yards off line.
Overall an excellent well balanced club for the average golfer.
