I think the 906F2 is a little better. It's not as leftward biased as the 904 with a more forward CG, it's a bit broader in the toe and heel area, and the leading edge is just about the lowest point, so hitting it off of fairways is a tad easier. The old 904 had to be a bit further back in your stance (which also helped to counter the leftward tendency), in my opinion.

The 585 is a better player's TM Rescue Dual TP. It's tougher to hit, has a lower ballflight, but can be worked a lot more easily and also can change trajectories quite well. I like how it looks more at address as well. The sound off both is more like persimmon than TaylorMade's "tink-ier" sound.

Is it true that the Titleist UST v2 shafts are tougher to get in the air? I keep hearing that from other people talking on other sites.

Off the fairway, a little bit. Off the tee, no. But it's not a "Titleist UST v2 shaft" - it's a regular UST ProForce v2 in a Titleist clubhead. But it may launch lower because it's a bore-through head on an already lower-spinning, lower-launching shaft.

I'm not sure that I understood you correct. Could you explane it?

None of us who have responded know for sure who you're talking about. You didn't quote anybody.

    • When I lived in Oregon my friend had a rule. It could only be 2 of the following 3 items for us to play. If all 3 we’d skip.    1. Windy (20+) 2. Rainy (needs to be steady, rain in Oregon is pretty common) 3. Cold (less than a high of 50) This was a pretty solid rule.    
    • Day 74: Worked on priority piece, full swing for about an hour this evening after dinner. Really need to exaggerate “hitting to right field feel” more than I think to produce slight push draw ball flight. 
    • Day 170 - Got some good work in on the short game, as well as more work on my priority piece. 
    • I searched around but didn’t see any other threads on this so I’ll put it here. I work in the laser industry and one of the applications has been additive manufacturing. The main market for the past 10 years has been SpaceX and the space industry and some medical applications. The new one I saw this week is 3D printing irons. Cobra and the company that they are using is marketing these irons pretty aggressively.  In talking with the folks in the booth at the trade show, the claim is that they can gain strength but reduce the weight to put it exactly where they want. The print of the iron is very cool. Mostly everything behind the face is a thin metal lattice and then in the heal and toe is a block of tungsten for weight.  I am old enough to remember the arguments about forged versus cast irons. I wonder if folks here will pay a bit more to get 3D printed irons.  They have a booth here where you can hit them but I hate lines and the line to do it is always long. I go again tomorrow, and if the line isn’t too long I’ll give it a try and report back.    Here are some pictures (I had some trouble uploading, I’ll try later)
