1. Callaway Big Bertha
The top-ranked driver on our list is the Callaway Big Bertha. It was more than just a golf club. It was a cultural phenomenon. When the Big Bertha was introduced in 1991, it was truly revolutionary (rare for a golf club if you think about it). Crazy to think but, at the time, the 190cc head size seemed like a club that was playing as a man among boys. Combined with an aggressive advertising campaign that captured the public’s imagination, it was literally an instant hit. Golfers at almost all skill levels saw immediate benefits. Pro golfers quickly adopted the Big Bertha, which led to lots of wins, which led to lots of amateur golfers flocking to stores worldwide to buy. They flew off shelves.
2. Titleist 975D
It was in Tiger’s bag when he won Tiger Slam. It was David Duval’s choice the year he became world No. 1. To this day, it remains one of the best-selling drivers of all time. It was also the No. 1 played driver on the PGA Tour. I guarantee you or someone you know gamed the classic Titleist 975D.
3. PING G400 LST
A unicorn at its time, the G400 LST set the standard for a class of drivers offering comparatively low spin with above average forgiveness. It won our Most Wanted Driver test in its first year of release and was so good that it stuck around even longer than PING expected. There’s a case to be made that, across the industry, many of the best drivers in recent years are fruit of the 400 LST tree.
4. TaylorMade R7 SuperQuad
TaylorMade has long been on the forefront of driver innovation, consistently boasting and bolstering its reputation as the #1 Driver in Golf.
In 2004, with the release of the r7 Quad driver, TaylorMade brought movable weight technology to the masses. Three years later, TaylorMade again revolutionized the market with the introduction of the r7 SuperQuad. With its maximum allowable 460cc head clubhead volume and four movable weights, the driver captured the attention and, to no small degree, the hearts of golfers everywhere.
Golf is a game of efficiency but a lot of golfers don’t bring that same “less is more” mindset when it’s time to pack their carry or cart bag.
Maybe you’re lugging around 20-plus balls or you’ve got a soda can from the Bush administration crushed at the bottom. Or maybe that’s just me … Anyway, it’s time to clean up.
While good golf bag organization probably isn’t going to directly lead to fewer strokes and more wins, it will make your life easier. Well-placed clubs have a lower risk of damage, for example, and a smart sorting system will ensure you always know where everything is.
How to organize your clubs
The main factors you want to keep in mind when sticking your clubs into your bag are ease of access and how much they touch each other. Ideally, your longest clubs (like your driver and woods) should be on one end and you should work down toward your shorter ones (like your pitching wedge) on the other. Of course, if your bag has a putter well or some other slot for a specific club, make sure it goes where it belongs.
Your goal here is to ensure the heads of your shorter clubs aren’t banging against the shafts of your longer ones. You really don’t want to pull out your driver just to find out your 8-iron has dinged your driver’s graphite shaft. Sorting by length helps avoid potential collisions. If you carry your bag, keep in mind how the clubs sit when it’s on your shoulder or on the ground—if you notice the heads of some clubs knocking on the shafts of others, you might want to adjust their location so they’re less likely to touch. Make sure you’re using headcovers, too, as these will also reduce damage risk.
When was the last time a top men’s golfer visited a Solheim Cup and cheered on the women?
I haven’t seen it recently. Does it sound like a pie in the sky idea? Maybe, but a blended Presidents Cup would at least have the potential on the American side to build that strong bond among the best male and female players, something pro golf could use.
We saw it two weeks ago when a shirtless caddie celebration got a number of top PGA Tour golfers engaged and bantering on social media about the Solheim Cup. That felt so rare.
