"Best" bonded hosel driver head

[14max]

I think the Cleveland Classic.  It's aesthetically pleasing and has that timeless and minimalist look that you're looking for.  What are you considering for a fairway wood, irons, wedge, and putter?

You know how so many drivers now have that spine along the sole from front to back? Stealth, that new Callaway thing...

Get the bonded original instead that 'inspired' them...

Apologies... that 9015D for sale on Ebay has sold.

I bought it.

 

To be exact - Ebay needed to confirm my identity, and i'm offshore at work so IT has blocked ip phone and i can't get the OTP code to my phone by SMS, lol... so i got my best friend in the US to buy it for me, and he'll bring it to Whistler later in the year when we meet up for some skiing.

That's how good the 9015D is, doggone it!

 

i saw some others on the bay.. with Matrix shafts, no less. Remember the hoopla about Matrix shafts?

The new issue is due out soon. I still have a prior gen in my backup bag for when the other misbehaves.

I also have one of the Cleveland Classic 310 with a Voodoo XVS8 in it that is a great performer. I can still put balls off the end of the range with it.

I absolutely loved the TM Aeroburner driver.

Srixon Z585 was bonded with a carbon fiber crown.
I think it came out in 2020 or 2021. 
Excellent ball speeds. I have one. It’s a really good, albeit underrated, driver.

My best ever bonded driver was the Ping rapture, what an absolute beast!

For a blend of bonded hosel, high ball speeds and forgiveness, this Srixon is hard to beat. Only a few years old. Very fast face.

Had the Callaway FT Tour back in the day and it was phenomenal

I second this.  They kept falling apart on me though.

I have never owned this driver.  I drooled over it a lot 10 years ago though haha.  It's only 380cc so I don't know how forgiving it would be.

I was a big fan of the Bridgestone J40 430.

an oldie but a goodie, absolute classic and a great shape. Moveable weights. What more can you ask for.

Epic Max Star driver from Callaway.  Get it from their CPO during a sale.  The stock shafts are good, but about 1/2 flex softer.

You don't mention your age or handicap, so we're just guessing here.  I too am a minimalist golfer playing blades.  But, I need the help and the Cleveland HB Turbo is a great driver.  Bonded with a good Miziyaki shaft.  You can still find them new, cheap.

There's a thread on this forum somewhere about this Godkiller. 

[Sakman]

Lots of classics in this thread, but my favorite still to this day has to be the TaylorMade 510TP. 

 

Edit: Just like looking on tour now and seeing all those red and silver shafts on the putting greens! "Fujikura Speeder 757 graphite shaft, trimmed with an eye-catching color combination of red and silver".
