Benross V6 Compressor driver

BENROSS V6 COMPRESSOR £169

TEC TALK

The highly responsive Beta Ti face has an enlarged sweetspot for added forgiveness. Ideal for mid or high handicappers after a bit more consistency with the big dog.

PERFORMANCE

This driver produces more of a powerful 'thud' than an attractive 'ping'. But drivers aren't made to sound pretty and this one will add a few yards to your tee shots. The bal flight was high - potentially difficult to control on a windy day.

TOTAL GOLF VERDICT

The ball flight was not as strong as some of the more expensive models but for £169, you'll get a solid strike and impressive distance. Benross might not be the name you'd immediatetly think but with an impressive range of clubs on offer at surprisingly low prices they're definitely worth a crack.
