I assume you have tried both, go with the one that "Feels Good". When you pull your driver out of the bag, you gotta say to yourself, I'm gonna hit this ball so far, they'll have to locate it with the Hubble. If you don't feel at home with it, it can be a Saasquatch, Mizuno, Callaway,Taylor Made, Nike, Cleveland and it won't make you happy. All the big names look good in the bag, but being able to use them, thats another story......

Exactly, there is no point picking a driver because of the brand unless you have hit them and can control them.

If you are playing off 28, you might find it easier to control a 3 wood off the tee before you pull out the big dog.
