Got to hit the new irons today. Not allowed to get into much detail yet but Titleist has done a really nice job with the 716 line. Best irons they've ever come out with IMO.

How are you T-MB's. Those are the ones that really interest me.

Similar looking to the AP2's at address but higher launching and a little longer.

Oooh, I might look into getting the AP1's if they're still going to be considered Titleist game improvement irons.

Yes. They're longer and more forgiving than the 714 AP1. Titleist feels like they made the most forgiving and longest iron (loft to loft comparison) on the market and you'll probably see a marketing push for the AP1 that's separate from the AP2.

I kind of hate the fact that Titleist releases their clubs in October. My season is basically over by then, so they come out just in time to taunt me ;-)

Really? I would think the MBs would be lower launching...

Im one of the biggest Titleist guys I know, but they haven't made a sexy iron in a while. I think Im going to switch to the Hogans in the spring.

The T-MB's are high launching, lots of weight low.

716 MB's will be a traditional muscleback.

If I get them, I expect that I'll spend a good amount of time hitting into my net this offseason. :)

October/November is basically the end of the golf season around here too, but its also the time that I'm looking to spend any pro shop credit I've amassed during the tournament year. :dance:

Gotcha, didn't realize they were doing two MB versions...

I love the way the T-MB's look. I'm not nearly good enough to game them but that doesn't mean I can't drool over them.

Available 10/23. I would assume you'd be able to get fit for them at Oceanside in October. Wouldn't make sense for them to fit you for the 714 line around the same time they're releasing the new stuff. Even if they did, the transition would be seamless. If you're fit for 714 AP2's, then the 716 AP2 is still going to fit you best.

So, I went to Golf Galaxy and was speaking with the manager and he said that they wouldn't get the 716's until next year in and around the PGA show.

I can't imagine Golf Galaxy wouldn't carry the irons if other places are carrying them.  Is the manager mistaken on the release date?

Also, Mark Crossfield did a review of the 716's.

AP1's


AP2's

CB's

MB's

I really hope they are available to the public by the end of this year. Id like Santa to drop off a set of those T-MB or new CB's at the house.

EDIT** According to another publication they are available in stores on Oct 23rd.

The AP1 looks awful inside the cavity. Harkens back to some of the older RAZR offshoot models that Callaway had a few years ago. The AP1 is never much of a looker, but yeesh.

I'm so glad I don't think it looks ugly.

WANT!

Looks like the manager at Golf Galaxy didn't know what he was talking about.

    • Day 107 - More pitching practice, playing around with trajectory. 
    • Yea Club Rat said it. I really enjoyed the Senator and the Judge, then over to Grand National where there a couple good courses plus a fun par 3. The one I do play whenever I visit there is Ross Bridge; something about this course that is just good fun. I hope to play more of the courses in the future, but tomorrow is promised to no one, so hope is the key word. Have Fun, iSank

    • Day 56: 4/19/2024 Okay, even though I'll be teeing it up in a tournament in less than a week. I couldn't find time to get to the range today.  I spent time on the indoor putting mat.  And I spent time in front of the mirror with my 7 iron. Then again later with the driver.  I also thoroughly cleaned all my clubs.
