Yesterday, Callaway finally released their new driver after days of teasing us with their #BerthasBack slogan. With the Big Bertha, Nike Covert 2.0 and the Taylormade SLDR driver being released this upcoming season, the market is filled with top notched choices for golfers looking to upgrade their drivers!
The focus of the new Taylormade SLDR driver is having a low/forward Center of Gravity (CG) due to the large, 20-gram sliding weight on the sole. This promotes a high launch angle, lower spin-rate and faster ball speed! With all these characteristics, the driver is now widely used among the Taylormade staff on Tour and all of them are “lofting up!” Hear from a few of the Tour professionals to see what they have to say about the new SLDR driver!
