That is my usual threshold, but the PXG 0211 was $180 with the Hzrdus black, so I folded. 

Well you get a hall pass on that one since you are a lefty and that equipment ain't as plentiful

Nothing, because even my current driver, the original 2016 M1, costs more than $150 on the used market. 

 

The people mentioning the OG M2...do you even pay attention to the used market?  I guess if you don't mind buying one with a 50 gram Senior flex shaft and spending another $150 on a new shaft, then you can get one for $150 (plus $150 for a new shaft)...

I think your exaggerating.  You are right that it may cost a bit more than $150 after shipping though.  With just a bit of patience you should be able to get one shipped for 160-170 and 150 is definitely not out of the question.

SLDR 460.  Bombed some great drives with it.  Not the most forgiving driver though.

I'd get the most recent Cobra or Mizuno I could find for the money.  Usually a lot of value for the money there.

Bridgestone J40

 

My Bridgestone JGR was $139 and is four years newer (2016). It has a bit more tech in it including a milled face. 

You can get the J40 for less than $100, though.

Ping G LS. IMO, last of the true long & forgiving (and best) driver from Ping before they went MOI hunting with heavy heads and CB shaft. Decent sound as well. Pair that with the Tour shaft and you have a classic, easy to hit winner

The prices of used drivers are up 30%, you might want to wait until winter now. I have been looking for a backup head and what I got last winter is now out of my price range.
