WTD: Forgiving driver for a beginner

[Tiger]

My brother in law is looking to start playing so looking for a cheap regular flex forgiving driver to get him started. What do you guys having lying about in the dark corners of the garage / shed?

 

[Oddsocks]

I'd be looking towards any of the g series drivers (as back as far as g2, G5, g10) or any of the burner/rbz range

Have a 10.5 degree Ping Rapture, regular flex..........good condition, been intending to put it on E Bay but haven't done so yet.

I have a Cobra King F6 kicking about but suspect its not what he is after.

Fraid not that will be a bit too pricey. Had I known I might have had it off you four weeks ago. Just bought an F6+

I have a taylormade R11s in the shed gathering dust if he's interested

Think I have an R9 in a cupboard at home, he can have it for the price of shipping if he wants it (and it is really there ).

why use a driver at all when beginning to play. yes, times and golf equipment in particular have changed a lot since i started the game, but i didnt possess a wooden club (yes, they were made of wood back then) until i was playing off 20

That's a very generous offer thanks :thup: I'm just waiting to hear back from SteveJay on his Rapture. My only worry with the R9 is the level of forgiveness for him as a newbie... is it OK for me to get back to you over the weekend?

Bernix I started without a driver so understand the logic but he really wants one (we all love swinging a big dog!)

Thanks for all the replies everyone. He is now the owner of a very reasonably priced G15. Cheers Tiger

 

[Beezerk]

Phew, I can't find the R9, think it may have gone

Glad you got him sorted Tiger.
So I still have a 10.5 degree Ping Rapture with a reg shaft if anyone else is interested
