A little birdie gave this to me, and it will likely vanish quickly...

Aesthetically, I do like the hybrid 585H. I, however, don't like the new looks of the fairway woods, and definitely not the irons. Those irons... I don't know... a little too gaudy for Titleists. And the new Detour... much like the Odyssey White Hot XG #7, it looks like it'd be something I'd use to bludgeon somebody more than putt with it.

You don't see the red on the irons at address, though. And the fairway woods look very similar at address as the old ones (908, 904...).

personally I like aestetics of the 585H but haven't been able to warm up to the wood style hybrid (propbably why I play the 503H)... the new 906F2 is absolutely beautiful... I think that black wedge on the sole is a pretty bold statement by Titleist's designers...

The detour seems like a pretty interesting putter, I definately am going to look into it but I'm just weary as I already have a cameron and the last thing I need is another 300 putter (I don't consider myself a cameron collector, nor do I aspire to be one)

I just got my hands on the new 585h with Fujikrua 904HB Stiff. (Previously used the 503h / Rifle 6.5). Very good looking club at address. Much more "wood" like than the 503h - somewhat similar to the Taylor Made hybrid. The 585h is much easier to hit off of the fairway /out of the rough than the 503h. The launch angle appears to be higher with the 585h (might be the difference in the shaft - but probably the difference in the head weighting). For those of you who struggle to make the 14 club limit, this can easily replace a 4 / 5 wood or 2 iron. In my case, I go Driver / 19 degree Hybrid / 3 iron... This is one great club.

aesthetically everything is very disappointing. ive been holding out on buying a 904f because of the impending release of the 906 but the sole just isnt appealing at all. i know you wont see any of it at address but its still a lot less appealing than i thought it would be.

I'm in the opposite camp. I think everything looks pretty spiffy.

But then again, I'd seen pictures of the 906 months and months and months ago, so I basically knew what they'd look like.

      Swing Caddie 300 First Use

      By Sclaffer ·

      Thanks for the reply. I downloaded a software update and can now measure swing speed without a ball. Without a ball and with an all out effort, I can get over 100mph swing speed. But as soon as I put a ball in front of me, I tense up and the swing speed is back to low 90's. More work to be done!  I am also excited to tweak everything to see if I can improve smash factor.

      Titleist GT280 (Mini Driver)

      By WillieT ·

      Kind of reminds me of my first driver - a TM R580 at a whopping 400cc.  Still have one in the stable - and like to hit it on occasion.  Makes me wonder if the Mini-drivers of today are a testing ground to drivers of tomorrow of the powers that be opt to roll back driver head size in conjunction to the ball roll back to limit the overall distance.  I’ve not done a lot of research on shot distances between the mini and regular drivers, but figured there is some.  Will be something to follow as the mini-driver unfolds.

      Are You "Loyal" to One Golf Ball?

      By retoid ·

      I agree with you, at least in regards to myself and playing. I can't really speak much for others. I assume that some people who are playing golf very often can notice more drastic differences. That being said, I do notice some differences here and there and sound and feel definitely have some say in which ball I end up liking. But that seems more psychological than physical. I've only been playing golf regularly for a year now and I'll play almost any ball since I often lose balls. However, since I've been able to get out once a week for a while now, I am down to losing only about 2-3 balls from losing 10-14 per round. Which feels huge for me and so I've begun to narrow down the balls I choose to play with. I've gone through a box of Vice Pro Plus, Vice Pro, Sugar, Titleist DT Trufeel and Kirklands. Bought a bucket of 350 used balls which had a majority of Srixon Soft Feels in there. I decided to give the Soft Feels a try and have really been enjoying them quite a bit. Only yesterday did I hit a Pro V1 for the first time and it felt quite nice. However, that all being said, I have to admit, I've played my best overall with Vice Pro Plus balls. I get the most distance from these balls and am able to hit them quite well. I am not sure on green side spin/grip, I think I'd prefer them to check up a bit more. But I believe one really big factor for me with these balls is that I usually club down when hitting them because I gain so much distance off of them and I also tend to bring my swing speed down which causes me to have a more accurate swing and ball strike. As opposed to trying to whack the snot out of the ball each time, which ends up in a slice 75% of the time. I do love testing out new balls though, sound and feel is always fun to experience.
