It can also be the most infuiating… but we try to supress that feeling usually. If you have never played before, you have surely seen a driver at some point.

What is a Golf Driver?

The golf driver is one of the many clubs a golfer has in his golf bag. Oftentimes, the most expensive one too. Relatively, the golf driver is a club that is designed to propel a golf ball the farthest. A golf driver is designed such that it has the largest club head, the longest shaft and the least amount of loft. A ball hit using a golf driver can travel up to an average of 225-300+ yards, if used correctly. It is the club that is used off the tee off box to get the most yardage out of the ball. Today, the market is filled with a vast array of golf drivers that come in many sizes and characteristics.
