Cleveland and Titleist both have great reputations for quality and both are considered companies that make "players" equipment. You won't have to worry about quality from either company. It depends on which company you like better, which club you would enjoy playing more. Which club scores more style points?

I know that a lot of guys have enjoyed the playability of the 704's. They offer good forgiveness while staying workable. Its your call.

I have hit the Cleveland CG2 and my impression was that the irons are very soft, easy to hit, and are long (I didn't realize the lofts were a degree strong). My overall impression was that while the clubs are well constructed and designed, I just felt that the CMM material felt a bit "mushy". I just didn't get a sense that the clubs were as "solid" at impact as other clubs that I've hit recently.

I haven't hit the Titliest 704CB, so I can't offer a direct comparison. But, I don't think you can pick a "bad" set with either of these companies.

I haven't hit the Clevelands, but I own the Titleists. I love them. Sweetest irons I've ever hit. Quite forgiving, but still "player-ish" enough to work the ball, if you're so inclined. I've been able to play high fades, low draws, and beautiful high straight shots. (Granted, I can also hit banana slices, duck hooks, and the occasional chunky skinny shanky topped worm-burnin' sky ball.) Played in a company tournament last Thursday, and stroked a beautiful 7-iron 170 yards to 12 feet. Felt pure in my hands.

I say go with the Titleists.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      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?
