I would take a lesson. It could be as simple as changing your grip...

It's too hard to say why your slicing your driver without seeing your swing. Also, if your fairly new to the game, you may want to consider hitting your 3 wood off the tee anyways. Since the shaft is shorter and the club face has more loft, it will likely be easier to hit than your driver anyways. A 220 yard in the middle of the fairway is a lot better than a 250 yard drive O.B. or in the woods. Regarding your equipment, I wouldn't worry about it, as long as it's cavity backed (which i'm sure it is) you should be fine. If, however, you are tall (over 6'2") or short (under 5'8"), then your equipment will likely need to be adjusted. But, even if your tall or short, the equipment alone shouldn't cause the slice. I definitly would not go out an buy a new driver to "fix" a slice.
