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.

All good points Musk...but it seems like u should be a Titleist fan, no? Maybe I'm just partial.

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.

      Day 38 (18 Dec 25) - got out in the backyard with grandson this afternoon.  We got into a little game of pitching the ball from about 25yds to a target point just off the asphalt lane behind the backyard.  Goal - just clear it with a quick hop and stop.  Focused on using the wedge swing motion I was talking with the course pro yesterday….smooth and thru just bruising the grass.  In addition to a concentrated focus on technique, it also called for a quiet mind locked in on target point.  Rehearsed this with both the 50° and 55° wedges.

      I listened to the Shaun Webb one about the swing coach app. Sounds like a great thing and will (hopefully) be very useful for me. I do think the hosts are underestimating where AI could be in a few years. Right now it's just regurgitating stuff that it has been told or it has scrubbed from somewhere else and a human guiding things will be quite a lot more helpful than just the AI, but it's going to keep developing and it will reach the stage where it's figuring this stuff out on its own. Time will come when it will have you do a TPI style screen and take various height/arm length/leg length etc. measurements, have you tell it some history and your time constraints and goals and what not and it will watch a video of your swing face on and DTL and it will know exactly what you need to work on.

      I found it entertaining, but the announcing was lousy.  How did the measuring on the final shot start with Rory being closer and being told he won, and then with no explanation it turns out Scottie won?  Weird.

      Day 128 12-18 Worked on rotation and getting to lead side. Still working on the flow feeling while doing that. Recorded swings.

      IMO-the only thing entertaining was the relay race. Everything else was excruciatingly boring...or just  stupid, like the 14-club thing. Watching guys blade wedges into the water over and over is not at all interesting.
