When it comes to buying new clubs, drivers always seem to elicit the most interest, and it’s easy to see why. The promise of gaining more yards and better accuracy from the latest technology remains an ultra-enticing prospect. And, as we’ve seen year after year, the addition of new materials and techniques in driver construction really does lead to some mega gains.
So if you’re in the market for a new off-the-tee weapon but aren’t sure where to start, take a cue from some of the world’s best players who are teeing it up this week at the year’s second major, the PGA Championship at Aronimink.

For some players, the drivers in their bags are relatively new. For others — like World No. 9 Russell Henley, who still plays a driver that was first released in 2020 — they’re comforting, longtime friends (relatively speaking). Scottie Scheffler also plays an “older” driver model (TaylorMade’s Qi10) that is no longer available to purchase new, but you might be lucky to find one second-hand.
Of course, as with any club, the right fit is everything, and when you buy from Fairway Jockey, you have the option of selecting a number of different customizations, including length, loft, lie, shaft flex, grip and more.

Cameron Young: Titleist GT3
Titleist GT3 Custom Driver
GT3 – Speed-Tuned Distance & Control
GT3 offers Titleist’s boldest combination of power and personalization. With a speed-tuned design that allows you to precisely match performance to your most frequent contact location, you can make your biggest drives even bigger while taking total control over flight and shaping.
For players with a relatively consistent impact location, GT3 offers a precisely adjustable CG Track to max out distance and directional control.
Seamless Thermoform Crown
A reimagined ultra-lightweight design, born from a new Proprietary Matrix Polymer. The tunable acoustic properties of this unique composite allow Titleist engineers to realize new material gains while maintaining our signature sound and feel. All wrapped in a clean look that inspires total confidence.
Split Mass Construction
A breakthrough in internal weighting unlocks longer drives and enhanced directional control in GT3. The Adjustable CG Track now sits closer to the face for more dynamic CG control, while additional discretionary mass is pushed to the back of the club to maintain optimal stability through impact.
Advanced Aerodynamics
GT3 features a new raised tail contour that represents a dramatic shift in driver aerodynamics. Previously impossible to execute due to design constraints, this advanced shaping results in a driver that swings faster while still providing optimal CG control.

Chris Gotterup: Ping G440 LST
PING G440 LST Custom Driver
The G440 driver family (MAX, LST, SFT) is optimized to deliver more ball speed through multiple advancements, including PING’s deepest CG in a driver to date and a shallower, thinner face, while continuing to ensure the game-changing forgiveness expected from a PING driver. The G440 LST (Low Spin) design appeals to players with faster swing speeds, providing lower spin and more control in 9° and 10.5° lofts with the three-position back weight.
HIGHLY FORGIVING
Lighter head weight allows for heavier back weight.
FASTER FACE
Shallow, thinner, face increases ball speed for more distance, higher launch.
SOUND DESIGN
New shaping, carbon crown and internal ribs produce muted impact experience.
FREE-HOSEL DESIGN
Saves weight to lower CG, increase forgiveness. Allows for more heel-side face flexing for consistent ball speed across face.
