    Driver won't help if you fade/slice the ball. If you fade the ball it's your swing path thats the problem, cutting across the ball, it's every golfers worst nightmare and I reckon every golfer has encountered it at some stage Best go see a golf pro and get a lesson if you would like to sort it out.

    On the R11, yeah it's an awesome driver. one of the best on the market definitely well worth taking a look at it.

    ya a driver wont change your flight much even though the r11 has adjustable lofts and stuff... its a seriously good driver though, just watch some golf on tv. so many top pros use it, and some arent even sponsored by taylormade (harrington, Donald) The only thing id say is that the r11 is kind of a better players driver, so if you are a high handicapper id think twice.

    have the r11 with about 2 months and absolutely love it i used to drive ball from left to right (way right) its working a treat for me straight down the middle, it is expensive tho so maybe see if you could try it out before you buy!

    It's not exactly the driver that is making you hit it without the slice boz. It's swing path that determines spin on the ball so a new driver would not change your swing path.

    The reason I put not in italics is while the driver its self would not change your swing path something must have changed for you..! So I'm thinking maybe the white driver is helping you align yourself better in you setup and their-fore swing from the inside and not cut across the ball.

    The reason I say this is like you said above they are quite expensive so I really would not want anyone getting one thinking that it will help sort out a slice. It won't do anything you could not do with any other driver. All that said they are extreemly long and have lovely feel. :)

    It's a lovely driver but you could get lost with the settings endlessly tweaking it; that would drive me mad as I wouldn't know when to stop!! if your fading/slicing try the ping k 15 that's really helped me out great driver,easy to hit and long the straight flight tech for once isn't just a gimmick
