Im not a very avid player and have a rather cheap set of clubs that I bought in highschool. Been playing a lot more than usual lately and thinking about slowly rebuilding my set.
I can consistently get nice shots out of everything in my bag except my driver. The thing is a slice machine. Ive tried several adjustments to my swing but nothing seems to work. I can hit my 3 wood nice and straight so I just use that.

So im wondering if anyone has some recommendations for reasonably priced drivers. Thanks.

i dont know if this will help you but when you swing try and keep your back foot planted for just a little longer instead of twisting it so quick

Look for a brand new one.
But a model that's a couple years old. Should cost about 200.
Since you slice the ball you could get a draw biased one too. Could help

Nah, he just needs to correct his swing.

I suggest he posts a vid of it here, MisterFurious is an instructor and semi-pro or someshit. Fixing a slice is usually pretty easy

If he goes with your idea, get an adjustable so he can set it back to neutral eventually

I just bought the burner 2.0 from RBG for 140 brand new. If you want a used R11, there is one for 130 right now on golf deals and steals or something like that

I wasn't suggesting the draw biased as a fix for his slice. He needs a new driver... it might as well help him a little bit. But, yeah adjustable would be better.

Ya that's what my uncle told me. He let me use his burner superfast yesterday and it was hitting great and felt great. Maybe keep an eye out for a deal on one of those.
