Hi, it has been a while since i have been to this forum so forgive me if I am not posting in the correct spot.  Ok I have searched for an answer to a question I have to no end. I am hoping there are some golfers out there that can help me out. I would like to know just how  much bigger are the Heads/Face of the Titleist 714 AP1 is compared to the 714 AP2? For example is like going from a compact players iron to (excuse the dated terms) Mid-size or is like going from a blade to (heres a throwback for some of you) Tommy Armour Ti 100 irons which are the size of the front grill off a Peterbilt. Just asking as I am sure there are some golfers out there that have had both clubs in hand at the same time.  Thank you in advance for any and all info and help.

I don’t have the 714 AP2 currently, my son has them. But I do have 712 AP2 and 716 AP1 6 irons. The AP1 head is about 1/8” longer at the top. A quick measurement was 3 3/4”. The AP2 measures 3 5/8”. If you go to Ralph Maltby’s site, he has more details on the club heads. Maltby Titleist . The C dimension is a centerline width measurement.

You resold a set of irons introduced in 2013 in the early 2000s after buying then used and using them for years?

I bought a set of titleliests in the 90's ''714'' caught my eye here on the forum and I thought it was memory from reading ;;714''.....but I am once again misleading the readers here in this forum, this time from a time over 20 years ago, my apologies.

I'm pretty sure these were the irons I bought

not 714's which I mistaken this thread for

Yeah… 714 means they were the 2014 irons (often released late in the prior year).

Thank you for the info going by what you have posted it doesn't like there is really that much difference in size. I just purchased this set basically got them on what I think is a really good price  ($265) for 3-PW which you don't see sets with the full line up like that anymore. also they have TT DG Tour Issue S400 shafts in them.

The AP2s? $265 is a great price. My son enjoys them now.

Having hit a few shanks in my life. I believe it is green marker from a ball hit with a near shank hit. 
 For the record all my ball marks are a black line (on a seam if possible) placed ground to sky. away from the club face.

    • The hype with the LAB Putters is something ive kept a keen eye on but i havent actually tried one... yet!! I use a SeeMore PCB and have done for around 8 years now and it was a gamechanger for me. It was the first time i had been fitted for a putter and from then ive totally bought into the fact that the technology in the putters makes a massive difference The only issue i have with LAB was that i did quiz them on Instagram what the difference between my PCB and a LAB Putter would be as the PCB from what i can find is just as balanced as the LAB Putters, however LAB couldnt tell me what the difference was and just said they didnt beleive in SeeMore Technology, but i wanted to know 'Why'!!  So yeah, the tech im sure works and think if anyone hasnt gamed a putter like LAB or SeeMore where custom fitting is crucial, then you gotta give it a go!
    • Day 335 - More putting work, with the focus on setup and hitting the sweet spot. 
    • Day 153: putted for a while using the 2 cups drill inside. Working on bead primarily. Contact was really good. 
    • Day 8: 12/17/2024 Okay I took my new PPJ swing thought to the range today. I wasn't sure I was quite ready to do so, but I'm glad I did.  When I got it right it was good... really good. When I got it wrong it was a major fail. I hit lots of really ugly ones. But I didn't let that deter me. I stayed committed and focused on the PPJ and I avoided any temptation to go back to what I was doing before just so that I could "look" better at the range. I'm pretty excited about what I saw when I got it right.  I hit the 6 iron mostly (nearly all block work today). I also hit about 6 balls each with the PW, 8I, 5W and Driver. Those had varying degrees of success. I did crack one drive that let me feel and see what the changes will look like once I get fully trained.  Anyway, I'm going to go back to the mirror work for a couple of more days before bringing it back to the range. I do feel like if I can get this right my swing will improve a lot. So I think its worth the effort. I liked the way it looked on GEARs when I get it right, and I like the results I got at the range when I got it right. Now the goal is to work towards getting it right more often.
