Thread: Titleist drivers??

the head pro at my golf club tested both drivers on a launch monitor and found that the ping g10 was a longer driver. but this may have been so because of his specific swing characteristics.

To answer your question...the DComp felt the most confidence inspiring to me however everyone's eye is different. The D2 seems to appeal to a wide range of players, too. The D3 seems to be the "players" stick of the bunch. Iaccas has a sweat review of the 909 line on the main page. I found it very insightful and useful. Good luck.

titleist drivers really are more of a player's club than many others (although not all).. like a blade as compared with a cavity back, they are harder to hit well and less forgiving on off centre hits. but the flip side is that you do get more control overall when you do hit the centre.. it's a hard thing to describe. it's like the difference between the original wilson pro-staff tennis racket that sampras used and federer...

No, don't have to be a good player to play Titleist drivers. Like others have said they are probably less forgiving but either way you still have to swing the club. If you put a bad swing on one, you'll hit it bad no matter what you're using. I just like the way Titliest drivers feel and sound. They don't have that loud crack that most drivers have today. The main reason why most will tell you that you have to be a good...

I would have a look at the TM tour burner, I upgraded to this recently from a nike sq sumo and it feels nice and solid, pretty forgiving and more consistent than the nike. They can be had from american golf for £129 too. The ping g10/15 drivers are very solid too.

Can anyone tell me if the myth that you have to be a good player to use titleist drivers is true?? Ive recently bought nike str8 fit driver and im not liking it! it doesnt feel like i get a good solid contact off it and the noise isnt great either!! Was thinking of exchanging it back for an R9, ping G10 or a titleist driver but after what i heard am not sure if this is a wise move!! I know titleist do the 909 d1,d2 and d3 so what would people...

I don't really think you have to be a great player to play one, I really like mine (905R UST V2) and I play to an 18.5. As a rule it isn't going to be as forgiving on mishits as some others so I guess you could say you have to be good to get the most from it (I don't). I like the sound of this head and the feel of the combo with the V2 shaft. Has a more boring trajectory than my previous driver. Sits up square to a bit open and...

As you say...it's a myth. They are great drivers in a traditional shape (usually!). May not be quite as forgiving as some on the market but they're one of my favourites. Great sound as well. See my signature for my current model but I like the 983K, 905s (and t) and 975 a lot as well. Not tried the 909s yet.
