So I met with several reps today and saw the new lines from Titleist, Cobra and Nike.

Here's a list of what I saw:

Titleist 909D Driver Series (D-Comp, D2, D3)
Titleist 909F2, 909F3 Fairway woods
Titleist 909H Hybrid
09 Vokey BV wedges
Scotty Cameron Fastback, Squareback and the new Newports
Cobra L5V Driver
Nike Dymo Driver

I liked the layout, and family of the new 909's, this is the first time they're going to be releasing a whole "family" of clubs at the same time since the old Starship series in like 1992! I was surprised that it's been that long, but it's true that everything has been 'al la carte.' I really liked the look of the D3, being a smaller head it really looks clean. I think the D-Comp is going to be very popular especially as a replacement for the 907D1, which was a bomb.

The new Vokey's are beautiful clubs, and they're offering a much bigger variety of lofts/bounces. Lofts available are 48, 50, 52, 54, 56, 58, 60, 62, and 64. They're all available with Spin Mill, as opposed to the current line which doesn't offer Spin Mill above a 54.

The Cameron, Squareback and the Fastback look very nice. They both set up very cleanly, and square up nicely with the line. Very soft feel. I'll probably be picking up a Squareback here shortly.

The L5V, in my opinion looks much better than the L4V. The "5th" variable is an adjustable shaft which changes the shaft angle depending on the head, from square to 1* closed, 1* closed to 2* closed, or 1.5* closed to 2.5* closed. It also has an adjustable weight in the back which is changeable based on the shaft weight.

I also saw the Nike Dymo line. The big change is their Straight-Fit technology which is along the lines of the Cobra. The shaft is adjustable in up to 8 different configurations, to give options of closed, open, upright, or flat.

I'll definitely be picking up the 909 line when we get our Sure-Fit cart supplies and find my right combo.

907D2 9.5* Mitsubishi Diamana Blue 63g Stiff
905R 9.5* Accra SC75 Stiff
HiBore 15* 3 Wood Aldila NV85 Stiff
20* Pro Gold Hybrid Mitsubishi Rayon JAVLN FX
AP2 4-P,W ProjectX 5.5 Vokey Spin Mill 54.10 & 60.04 Studio Design #3 Cut to 32.5" ProV1x All #6's

I think you mean the current doesnt offer a spin mill below 54 not above 54.

THanks for all of the info, look forward to it

    • Day 10 (10 Jun 26) - Played in the midweek shootout at my home course - on aerated and sanded greens - day of trying to figure tempo to get the best roll on the greens.  Approach game was decently solid as was shots off the tee.  
    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?      
    • Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
