Jim: One week after I purchased my 1-Irons, I went ahead and bought the driver. Best decision I ever made !!! With my WTF of 34.5", my new driver is 43" long and simply a dream to hit. In your statement, you say,"I hit it good when I hit it good". Sounded just like me! I believe your Taylormade is probably too long for you and therefore, very difficult to accurately control. I was using a very nice Cleveland Hi-Bore XL with a 45.5" shaft. Man, I could really hit it, when I hit it! The rest of the time I was looking in the next fairway, in the trees, out in the field, you get the picture. With the new 1-Iron driver, I gained a tremendous amount of control and accuracy. And my distance has improved as I become more familiar with the driver and how to swing it correctly. Also, it is really nice to use the same ball position as all the rest of the 1-Irons. Middle-of-stance works just fine! Anyway, just some of my thoughts. Have a great day and hit em straight! R2

Hi, good purchase the irons play fantastic, take the whole 30 day and PLEASE follow the playability tips dont just go out and hit them and play, it took me 3 weeks before thing's kicked in.

The driver play's very well also, If you again follow the playability tips, Tried it for a while and never played better. For some reason I hit longer shafted drivers very well and never really had a problem with driving.

I play my OE Driver's fantastic strongest part of my game, Now with he 1irons I have a balanced game.

I gave my 1iron driver to a very good friend who could kill a 3 wood but not good with a driver, it was like magic for him, he pounds it 250 almost all the time, and he is about 30 longer than his standard 3 wood so the fit was perfect, Oh Buy the way he is 6'2" and the driver was for me at 5'7", imagine that.

It is worth trying and compare to what you have.
Good luck
