Lazrus Driver Specs, Design & Features

Lazrus may have taken five years to launch their first driver, but the wait is worth it as they have perfectly captured a blend of speed, distance and precision.

The large 460cc driver head is confidence-inspiring and has a classic and classy look in matte black, but there is much more to it than the pleasing aesthetics.

Lazrus have opted to construct the clubhead from durable titanium and pair it with a 6/4 titanium face that is designed to optimize ball speed across a wider area of the face.

It not only produces fast ball speeds that are incredibly accurate, the driver is also design to deliver towering drives with maximum carry distances.

The club comes with three graphite shaft options of different weights to suit the needs of golfers of all levels and optimize the overall set up.

You can choose from regular graphite shaft (62G), a stiff graphite shaft (68G) or a senior (60G) weight.

The driver is sold in 9 degree and 10.5 degree lofts in both right-hand and left-hand options, but is non-adjustable.

Lazrus Golf Driver Review: Is it any good?

Lazrus are creating a reputation for high-performing, budget-friendly golf clubs and the driver fits that theme perfectly.

It is built for speed and distance and the combination of the titanium head, optimized shaft weights and loft options certainly deliver explosive drives that maintain accuracy.

When we tested it, the driver compared well compared the best drivers on the market but with incredible value for money it is an ideal choice for mid-handicap golfers or high-handicappers.

For the cost of this model, you will struggle to find better value for money for the performance it delivers from the tee box.
