Have Purchased a new Titleist Driver, a 15.5 and an 18.5 wood to go with it, and find drives have increased, but still am getting used to the fairway woods, but am getting better as time goes on, Am a 15 handicap, but that will get better soon as I get more used to these clubs. Thanks for developing these, as I feel these will help me improve. I use Cobra irons, which I find are perfect for my game, (Wife also uses Cobra.) We are both avid golfers, and get in three rounds a week at Two Eagle's club in Westbank B.C.

In response to the pop question, you have to tee the F4 Fairway Metal lower than the F2. The F4 is a great club and stick with it!

My Story:

I was playing a 906F2 3 wood with ys6 reg shaft (driver ss 92) last year. On a course I have played for years there are 2 uphill par 5's. Never was on in 2. After 2 fantastic drives with my Hibore XL I was able to hit both greens in two with the 906F2.
The XL and F2 both deserve the credit. I was never able to hit a 3w like the F2. Towards the end of last year I traded in the 3w and kept the 5w. STUPID! Just searched for the same 3w I was hitting last year and was lucky to find one in great shape.

18.5 would be your 5 wood, and the 15.5 would be your 3w.

I played my 3w today for the first time....it flyes low and long, first hit ever was 225, not bad for a high hiandicaper (36).

I have the 906F4.

Great club!

I did have it alot easier to hit the F2 off the deck than the F4.

I purchased a 906F4 18.5 and 906F 15.5. Which one is a replacement for the 3 wood and which is the 5 wood? Thanks.

Great review and very informative.

I have just one question regarding your categorization of players into two categories. 0-3 handicap and 4 handicap and up?

What's the difference between a 3 and 4 handicap and why would you separate them? Does it have anything to do with the fact that your handicap is 3 ?

For the record I've played off 3,4 and 5 and also got down to scratch a few years ago.I just feel that for such an informative and supposedly un biased article,It lessons the integrity of the article to have two categories based on your personal handicap.(i.e That 3 be included in the "top "category). While there is no real difference between a 3 and 4 handicap there is a massive difference between 0 and 3.

Just a thought. Otherwise I thoroughly enjoyed your review and it found it very informative and helpful.

I demoed a used 906F2 last night, and I must say, being a high handicaper....I loved this club. I tested an '08 burner 15*, a Ping rapture 14*, and Cally Ft9. And this club was by far the easiest to hit of the deck and off the tee. I do have to note that I was hitting slices like nobody's business, but the club was stiff shaft. Based on this review, I am convinced that Titleist is the brand for me, eventhough I have just been playing for 3 months.

906F4 a5* is on it's way...almost!

Erik, great review!!!!

This is the nicest 3 wood I have ever hit. This thing is easier to hit than some hybrids. I was looking for something I could swing with the same agression as my MP33 irons and feel comfortable. This thing is great. I am a little late becuase I wait until the new series come out before I purchase. This is the last 3 wood I will be buying until it is just not competitive anymore. This is for the low and the high handicappers. I have never been a fairway guy so for me to rant and rave about a 3 woods is crazy. Best on the market in my opinon.

I have to put a note for the mid handicappers; don't rule out this club! I just took up golf 11 months ago and have a lot to learn. I tried a lot of 3 woods and just synched with this club. It picks the ball off the deck like a hybrid and is very easy to hit off the tee. True, you will sky a couple determing tee height, but it didn't take as much experimenting as my driver.

I love the tremendous feel with this club. You can tell exactly where you made contact and it has helped me improve my swing. When you hit it flush, it has great distance. It is rather forgiving on mishits as well. I toed one abit today off the tee on a par 4 dogleg right and it still went 215 and stayed in the fairway.

Great review too. This review gave me the interest and confidence to try out this club and I am really glad I did!
