I Asked My Team To Find The Best Driver For Under £150 And They Delivered

Anyone shopping online for a new driver may well get a shock when the prices reveal themselves on the screen. If you’re after a premium model made by the companies used out on tour, you won’t get much change out of £600. Some will accept this is the way of things - everything is more expensive these days, so why should golf clubs be any different? Others, however, won’t be able to justify such a significant financial outlay on a single golf club.

It is why many are turning to the second hand market for their next purchase. From websites like golfclubs4cash, you can pick up relatively recent models (that stack up pretty well against the modern day drivers) from all the major manufacturers, including the big four of Titleist, Ping, Callaway and TaylorMade plus many others. So I tasked my equipment team (and had a go myself) to pick out their favorite driver for under £150 from the golfclubs4cash website and explain why the club they chose represents such excellent value. Their findings provided plenty of food for thought for anyone looking to upgrade their big stick…

Whenever anyone asks me what my favorite ever driver was my mind immediately goes to the Callaway Rogue Sub Zero. Originally launched in 2018, I was blown away back then by how it managed to combine low spin with a seemingly high level of forgiveness - I remember being both a longer and straighter driver of the ball after I switched into it, plus the feel off the face was incredible. So imagine my delight when I saw one available from golfclubs4cash for just £130.99! Admittedly this one doesn’t come with a headcover and there’s a few minor scuffs to contend with, but for that price you’re getting an awful lot of club for your money.

I was thoroughly surprised by just how many good drivers there were available for under £150. I applied a few filters, such as an extra-stiff shaft and a head that’s in good condition before scrolling through my options. It was almost like taking a stroll down memory lane, looking at various models that have been released over the years. I ended up going for a 2016 9.5^° M1 driver with Fujikura Pro 60 shaft all for just £140.99. I’d used this driver back in 2016 and have fond memories of playing some great golf with this club. The dual weight track design and adjustable hosel would allow me to dial in my ball flight if I feel it needs some fine tuning and the fact the head, shaft and Golf Pride MCC grip were all in good condition was a huge bonus.

Being a left-hander, it can be tough to search for used golf clubs online. Luckily, on the golfclubs4cash website, there’s a section dedicated to lefties like me, and I can search to my heart’s content knowing they’re all the correct dexterity! With my maximum budget of £150, I could also refine that search using the price sliders. That meant I was presented with pages of drivers that I knew were left-handed and I knew were under my budget - easy as that.

Ping drivers age like a fine wine in my opinion, so I refined my search even further for an old Ping driver. In the end, the one that piqued my interest the most was a Ping G30 LS Tec. It’s got a quality shaft in it, and the original headcover too. Being a very similar colourway to the new G440 Max driver, you could be mistaken for thinking this was part of that family. The grip looks a touch shiny on it, so I’ll likely ask golfclubs4cash to put a new Tour Velvet on there for me before they send it, which will just about keep me under my budget.

When given this task, truthfully, I wasn’t filled with excitement about what I might find for that budget. How wrong I was! There were tons of big brand names and models that I have personally played in the past, and it was actually a lot of fun sifting through the options. It was also super easy to set the filters and parameters to narrow my search.

The model I settled on, however, was the Titleist TSi3, coming in just over budget at £155.99. This is a model still very much in play on all major professional tours around the world, and to be able to pick it up for that price (even fitted with a premium Mitsubishi Tensei shaft) was too good a deal to miss. Having played recently with 2025 Porsche Singapore Classic winner Richard Mansell and seeing how well he wields his TSi3 driver, that was enough convincing for me!
