Dustin Johnson is one of the longest drivers in the PGA. Is it the Golf driver that makes him hit them so hard and far? I checked inside Dustin Johnson in the bag to see which type of  golf driver does Dustin Johnson use.

Dustin Johnson hits them with Taylormade R11 Golf driver

Features of R11 as listed on Taylormade website.

Features:

• Adjust the loft with Flight Control Technology (FCT)
• Adjust the face angle with the new Adjustable Sole Plate (ASP)
• Adjust the CG location with Movable Weight Technology™ (MWT®)
• Promotes up to 100 yards of side-to-side trajectory change and ±1,000 RPM backspin change
• New aerodynamic shape promotes faster speed for more distance
• White non-glare crown and black clubface for easy alignment

Dustin Johnson Golf driver Shaft

It is made of Fujikura Blur TP graphite shaft

Is it for real? Can it increase your driver length? According to golf.com comments on R11 the answer is YES. Commentators swore they had increased some yard when hitting with Taylormade R11.

If you are justed getting started in Golf and you are looking for the best golf clubs for women beginners, we recommend you select golf clubs made with graphite shaft.

Golf clubs made with graphite shaft are obviously lighter than golf clubs made of steel shaft. Graphite shafts are ideal for the beginner women golfers. Because they are lighter, more of the club’s weight is in the head making it easier for women beginners to swing the club a bit faster.

Buy Set Of Clubs Made for women Beginners

We also recommend that women beginners in Golf should purchase a half set of clubs rather than a full set. A half set of clubs are made for beginner golfers. Most half sets consist of five irons–a four, six, eight, pitching wedge and sand iron as well as a 3- and five-wood and a putter. Half sets of clubs will enable a beginner to improve his swing without having to spend much more on a complete set of clubs. Once you must the basics of golf you can step up and buy a full set of clubs.

Remember golf clubs don’t make a golfer. To be a good golfer you will need to master all aspects of golf from set up, vision and striking the golf ball. Golf clubs are just a means to that end.
