Super fast delivery (24 to 48 hours), as far as the actual bluc goes, here is a review I wrote on Golftown.com :

I had been playing with the same old driver for a good 5-6 years, trying out a few at the stores and even purchasing a new one last year but never really liking them, before I got my hands on this puppy. The feel is great, I had no problems adjusting to the added inch on the shaft, the light club head feels great and I've added a good 20-30 yards on the same swing with this club. I highly recommend it for the 220-270 yards medium length hitters, such as myself. Tried the updated 2.0 version of this year yesterday at the club and did not see the difference, get this one instead.

I was talked into a 10.5 degree loft with a medium shaft. I'm now hitting the ball into the stratosphere but not getting the distance of my old driver. Should've stuck with my gut feeling and bought the 8.5 degree loft.

I bought the Superfast about six weeks ago after struggling all year with my old Taylor Made driver. I hit this driver much straighter and a bit longer. My son who is 22 liked mine so much I bought him one as well, and he is hitting it much longer. However, we both draw the ball with all clubs, and we both noticed that about 50% of the drives we hit with this driver will sail out straight, but then start to fade left to right about half way through the flight of the ball. We never had this happen with our old drivers on a solid hit. Overall, I would buy it again for the price.

Driver added about 5 yards of carry over R7. Has a kind of a smoothness to it while swinging. Regular shaft (with 10.5 loft) is not too stiff for slower swing speeds. I only fly the ball about 200 yds with Pro V1's and slightly longer with hard two piece balls. Both roll out well with draw shape. Very nice to look at. Recommended. Edit: Just read in Golf Magizine that the average 10 handicap golfer hits driver 213 yards. Just so you know optimists.

Carls's Golfland had the order in hand on Wednesday morning and didn't ship till Friday. Old clubs had been stolen so this was an issue for me. Hurricane Golf shipped 5 and 7 woods the same day. Just so you know.

Decided to upgrade my woods and bought this driver along with a set of new fairway woods of a different brand. While the fairway woods are not as good as my old set, this driver is much better. When you do your part, it sends the ball long and straight. I am probably getting almost 30 yards more distance than my old driver (graphite shaft, not as large a head as the Burner). This club is LONG. I also get some "other" hits with it; i.e., occasional wild shots that I have yet to explain with my swing. But by and large, I am VERY pleased with the extra distance. Swings very nice. I bought a 9.5 degree, stiff shaft model. I am tall (6'3) and OLD (51) but still swing pretty hard. I looked at the R11 but for the money, I can't see the need to be able to "adjust" the club. I just want to learn this one very well and it will do the job nicely, I think. This is my first "expensive" golf club of any kind, and... I like it!

I bought this club for my brother's birthday and it was the best gift I could have picked out. He said the first time he hit it, his drive was easily 330 yards. He's a pretty tall guy at 6'2" and says the club is a great length for him. My dad is jealous and wants one for himself now. I would make this decision over again in a heartbeat!

Everything is great. Got the product right away just in time for Christmas. Would order from this company again.

I received this item for Christmas and can't wait until the weather breaks to use it. Item arrived on the stated date and was in excellent condition.

Ok, so I've playing for around 2 years. I started with a entry level wilson box set, which was fine, since I got to have fun on the courses with it. Then I found a set of Tommy Armour Irons and Hybrids which were pretty nice, so i pecked around for a driver this year, and did some research and decided to by this driver used on Amazon. I still consider myself a beginner, but before this driver, i could hit accurately with my hybrid between 150-170 yards. When I would pull out by driver, i'd do around the same distance but with horrible accuracy. 50% of my shot were straight at best.

With this burner, i'm consistently driving between 200-220 yards. 80-90% are now dead on accurate given a few degrees. I'll take that. I've also noticed, that i don't necessarily have to hit in the center of the sweet spot to get a good hit. Which is great as I'm still working on perfection.

Awesome driver!

I like my new driver very much, it has great performance and it really enhances long shots. I should have bought it earlier.
