Best Answer

The best way is to go to a local pro shop or Golf shop, and hit a number of drivers and see which one gives you the best flight, distance and spin rate. The lower the spin rate obviously the more distance you will get. It is however a combination of both the head and the shaft.

Generally if you are just beginning i would suggest a 10.5 with a regular shaft. But if you have a very high ball flight you may want to go as low as 8.5, a mid flight with say a 9.5 and if you have a normally very low flight you may want to go to a 10.5. The shaft flexes go by swing speed, a regular is for slower speeds, a stiff is for faster speeds and an x-stiff is for very fast swings.

The most common combination for amateur golfers is a 9.5 stiff, but you should really try and number of drivers out as you notice the difference greatly.

Trial and error basically or get custom fit. If you prefer a higher flight get a higher loft club.
