I hit the 909D2 recently and really, really liked it. I didn't like it enough to switch from my r9 460 TP, but it's right up there with the Ping i15 as the 3 best drivers out there right now, in my opinion.

As a point of reference, I played the 907D1 for awhile and loved it. I hit the 907D2 and hated it. Never hit the 909D2 or comp.

I have 909 D2 9.5* Diamana Regular that has been tipped 1/2". So it is like stiff but has 44-1/2" shaft. I chose to tip it after trying both the regular and stiff on a monitor.

I had 975D 7.5* stiff that I absolutely loved before I got the 909 D2, but I usually choked down about 1/2". Now I don't have to choke down on my 909 D2.

I think besides 975D, 909 D2 is one of the best drivers Titleist has made. I did not like 907 or 905 or 983's. I waited until I thought they finally got it right like the 975D's.

I recently put a 909D2 (see sig) in the bag...A guy from one of the mini tours here in Florida traded it in at my local EW and a guy I know there called me to take a look at it...it is a 9.5 with a Diamana White Board 83X shaft and it is 44 1/2 long. I took it out and hit it very well right away...I have no desire to work the ball and work on a straight to slight draw driver swing (S&T;) and this club woprked very well for me...now it was very cold (well at least for a Floridian) when I played this club the few times I did but I still got good disatnce and it seemed very easy to control...I recently had rotator cuff surgery so I only played with it a few times but I am excited to be able to hit balls with it in normal Florida weather...only problem is the doctor said it will probably be July befoire I can swing a driver....

TEE - XCG6, 13º, Matrix Ozik HD6.1, stiff

These are sweet sticks. I hit one and liked it. Very nice feel/sound.

I ultimately opted for the DComp due to getting a bit more carry.

Burner Superfast 3 & 5 woods (house MATRIX OZIK XCON-4.8)

I have the d2 and it is brilliant. my normal ball flight is a mid to low shot which carries - yes a low shot that carries well over 260-270 yards .
really nice feel really nice sound, none of that hollow thwack u get from the callaway ft's and i personally find the r9's to sound a bit shrill, so for me other than the ping g15 and i15 , the best driver out there. :D

07 Burner regular flex. (my dads-doing wonders with it) :D
supersteel burner steel shaft strong 3 wood
R7 draw 5 wood

I have the 909 D2 9.5.  I got last year when my dad bought it hopes of replacing his TM R7superquad.  After a few times out he couldn't hit it as well as the R7 (lost distance and control).  SO he gave it to me to replace my old Titliest driver.  And boy was I glad he gave it to me when I first swung it.  The feel and sound is great I picked up 10 yards and the control is great.  While my dad was using the 909 i took his R7 cause I figured he would keep the 909.  I didn't like the way TM felt and my accuracy wasn't as good.  I would strongly recommend it if you like Titliest drivers.  I think it is one of their best yet.

Thats my opinion on it.  thanks

I would like to try out the 9.5 in a reg flex but it is not that easy to find.

    • It's really hard to argue against the Tiger Woods 2000 swing.  I like Rory's swing. And, I've always liked Joaquin Niemann's swing. Although, if I tried to mimic Niemann's swing I'd probably end up in traction for 2 months. I was kinda bummed when he went to LIV cuz I almost never see it anymore.  At the other extreme, I can't look at Bryson when he plays. Even if it's very effective, it's coyote-ugly to watch.  I'd rather watch Charles Barkley than Bryson. ....  
    • Thank you for that information,I would have loved to see him in person
    • I think he was always kind of like that - he hit it off the planet relatively frequently throughout his career. I saw him play a couple of times. One time at Walton Heath in the European Open. He was playing the 13th on the Old (dogleg right par 5) and his drive had gone through the fairway and found a patch of grass in the woods there to the left (the woods have now gone). He had an opening to play back to the fairway. Maybe 25 yards to reach the fairway and 65 yards to run through the other side. He was maybe 230 yards away from the green, but the trees made sure that was not a viable option (at least that's what I thought at the time). He pulled out a pretty long iron - probably a 3 and gave it a full blooded thrash. I watched this ball come out straight for about 40 yards and then it just turned hard left, but stayed in the air (still not sure how he did that). He started the ball at a point that must have been 100 yards right of the green and hooked it basically that whole 100 yards and the ball wound up on the front of the green.  Shotmaking he was pretty much peerless. Not sure his swing was ever technically solid. Flowing and fun to watch yes, but not one you'd want to copy.  As to the question, I have heard a few people suggest that Mickey Wright had the best swing ever. Frank Nobilo had a pretty sweet looking one. Bruce Lietzke's was pretty cool - he managed to maintain PGA Tour playing rights with basically little to no work on his game - got to be a lot said for that.
    • A lot of us on this forum are hyper competitive, we just know not to break things that don't belong to us! that is why I stated "a person with a poor attitude grows up with no consequences" it is not all entitlement.
    • Yea, it is a cult following. Especially with the YouTube golf personalities using them. They did great marketing in a space that not many other golf clubs are getting into yet. Especially for putters.  I tried them out at Golf Galaxy before; I can't stand them look of them.
