Hi guys!

So I currebtly have 3 drivers and have to get rid of 1, but don't know which one to keep as my backup.

My main driver is currently a Titleist TS4 9.5° with Proforce V2 X-stiff shaft (original 2006 version), and the 2 on the on the chopping block are:

- Taylormade M2 (2016) 9.5° with Fujikura Pro 60 Stiff shaft

- Titleist 917D3 9.5° with UST Mamiya Helium Black 5F5 shaft

Which should I keep as my backup?

Driver: Cobra Amp Cell-S - 10.5°
Woods: Cobra F-Speed 3 Wood - 15.5°
Hybrids: Cobra Amp Cell 2/3 Hybrid - 16°-19°
Irons: Mizuno MX-15 - 4-PW
Wedges: Titleist Vokey Spin Milled - 52°/8°, Titleist Vokey SM4 - 54°/8°, Titleist Vokey Oil Can - 58°/8°
Putter: Odyssey White Ice #1

The one with which you score better. If same same, I’d sell the one for which you could get the most money.

I agree with @woodzie264. If the backups are both the same in performance, sell the one you’ll get more for. I just sold a 917D2 and have a TSi2 now.

I’m a fan of the M2… always be one of TM’s best heads.  BUT.

Doea the other Titleist driver’s hosel adapter fit the TS4 and vice versa??  If it does you can use the proforce in both heads etc….

The 917 and TSi series use the same hosel.

Sell them both (if they both have value) that way when you buy a new driver you can make that TS4 your back-up. You know its going to happen sooner than later. If you like the Helium shaft keep it and just sell the head.

Way to go @TourSpoon. That's the best answer.

    • Ahh the 'gap wood'. Allegedly more control than a traditional driver and more distance than a 3-wood. While it sounds logical on paper, the more I think about it, the more I am confounded by the existence of this tool. Bit skeptical that most us weekenders that are not better than maybe a 2- handicap can effectively land in this 'uncharted' thin gap between a 3 wood and a driver with any sort of reasonable consistency. For me the venn diagram of these two traditional clubs from a control perspectives is almost a single circle given the wide (and diffused) yardage and direction spreads.  @ChetlovesMer, name her "Minnie" and maybe will hunt you some good will..😝. Kidding aside, I am interested on how it works out for you. Not too proud to be singing a different song if convinced. Have fun!
