Best Classic OEM Driver ever?

What's your favorite older model that is still relevant? I think the 2007 TM Burner is one of the best performing units they ever made. PING G10 is tie...

Titleist 975D

Spuzz Titleist 975D

Gotta 75 year old golf buddy still gaming his .

wishbone

Spuzz I've still got one, but the lift is too low and the shaft too stiff for my feeble seeing these days.

983k would have to be up there too

Par4QC Just looked at 1 a couple days ago. Now I gotta get.

Why you gotta ask crap like this in here....do it on FB where I can't see it

Ho's need ho's....... 🤣

Eguller

Titleist 975D & 983K
TaylorMade R510TP

Other honorable mentions down the line a bit....

The TM 2007 Burner for sure. I actually just sold one of my Titleist 975D's the other day so I will throw that one in also.

sdandrea1 I agree about the 9088UL. Really long, great feel, muted sound. Hitting some of my longest drives with this head.

sdandrea1 07 burner is the starter in my bag. It’s actually benched the g400 max. Also the G10 was probably my most successful driver of all time and in my bag the longest. 975d was a goodie as well.

I have a Titleist 983K. It looks great. I can't hit it for shit.

The gap in my OEM driver experience jumps from a steel shafted Taylor Made System 2 Midsize to Titleist 917 D2! Didn’t play anything but components between those two.

There are no others 😉

I'm currently looking at one of those on eBay. Would pair great with my V-Steels.

I really liked that one, but for me the R580xd was better. I always thought that maybe the R580xd TP would be the best, but never got to hit one.

Baaab turned me on to this. Class by itself.

Par4QC

LBlack14 migawd, you still got that?

bigshank

LBlack14 nice looking stick. Can’t believe I’ve never hit one

If you follow the classic iron thread, only persimmon model drivers should qualify. Everything mentioned in this thread is an older Modern drivers. Gotta be another 25+ years before classic should even be considered for the drivers in this thread!

Plus we are disqualifying @Spuzz comment because he probably bought the Titleist driver in component form and it would not be considered OEM. 😁

There's a classic iron thread?

Par4QC I missed the other one and found a replacement. I'm telling you, this was, probably, the best feeling head I've ever hit. Had to have another and the $14.99 price tag (PIAS) was hard to beat. I've had this one for a bit.

Par4QC

LBlack14 Steve and I both had one, way back when we could swing hard. Damn those things took some ooomph. Hard faces, can't believe LDers never picked up on them.

Really? Never felt like that to me, that's why I liked it so much. Even had a muted, soft sound to me.

Here's a couple old school sticks I'll pull off the wall from time to time.
A Titty 983K and one of the Killer Bee's with the vert. grooves.
They look like 3wds. compared to todays "bigger is better" clubs!

If you want, I have one for you. It’s an 8.5 with the Launcher gold stiff flex shaft. Pay for shipping, it’s yours.

Par4QC

braveheart Well, it would be silly of me to pass that up! Let me know costs and pay method.
The loft will be perfect!

Thanks!!
