Callaway Ocxtane Tour 8.5*, PX 7.0 Tour shaft
Straightest and longest driver I've ever had. Also looks great at address.

Really throwing it back with Callaway BBB.

But I stuck with Ping ISTI and Titleist 983K for awhile.

This answer will surprise many:

Titleist 907D2 7.5* PF V2 S shaft.  Stupid long for me.

I now play an R11.... Why?  I don't know....

Have to make a new entry, R11S 9 degree with Oban Kiyoshi Siff flex cut to 44.5". This is the longest most forgiving driver I have ever had.

I know earlier this season I favered the Ping i20 9.5 with Graphite Design AD BB shaft as it's long, very forgivng, feels good, sounds good. Now it has became my 2nd favorite club. No it's not going to be the new Ping Anser as I really never thought Ping would go this route but anyhow I'm sure this will be an awesome driver. My favorite driver of all time has just kicked out my i20. It's the new Adams Launch Lab 10.5 with Fubuki Alpha as it's longer, just as forgiving, feels great, sounds great & looks great. Never had a club that doesn't lose any distance on balls hit of the toe.

Use to just kill a Ping ISI back in the day.

Perhaps it just coincided with the best I ever played but my Ping TiSi with a Proforce 65 and a RUD hozel was amazing for me.  I loved that driver...cracked the face on it after three years and the replacements they sent me just never felt the same.

My current gamer, VR Tour w/ Tour Green 76X. Best combination of control and distance I've ever had, and it feels great too. We've been together about a year now :tongue:

Runner-ups:

Distance: Hibore XL w/ stock Fuji Red
Accuracy: 905R w/ V2 76

My current is my best - G15 10.5 with stock regular shaft. I've hit the ball longer and more consistently with it than anything else by a good margin and hit my first par 4 green off the tee this year. Yes, there was a strong tailwind, but it was 300 yards.

My best driver by far is my current gamer. Razr Hawk 9.5 I-mix with an oldie but goodie Speeder 757. I just this week tried a Motore Speeder 7.1. It felt great, very stable and controlled, but just wasn't even close in diistance.
