I checked out the upcoming Titleist drivers and I realized that D1 has a lie angle of 59 and D2 has 57. That is quite a lot of difference there. Do you happen to know why they designed it that way and how it could effect setup/performance? Also please feel free to write any information about these drivers. It's awesome that they will be coming with Aldila VS as a standard shaft.

you're monopolizing the board as of this moment!

the more upright angle of the D1 will help slicers.

Actually I think it has more to do with the distance between the sweetspot and the shaft axis. If you have the Jan07 issue of Golf Digest (Annika on the cover) Frank Talk, written by Frank Thomas, outlines this phenomenon on page 140.

that may be the more scientific description...i thought it was supposed to help the steep angles of attack that many cutters/slicers have...

The stock shafts for the upcoming 907D2 are listed at the link above.

Just wanted to get people's opinion about the YS-6+ shaft vs Titleist Spec Grid 67 shaft.

Torque of 3.5 (YS-6+) vs 3.9 (Titleist Spec Grid 67). Is that a noticeable difference?

Any shaft expert can help me out on this one? Thanks.

I've had the YS6 in my last two drivers the 905T and now the R. I like it... It really keeps me from over swinging because it requires smooth tempo. The smoother the swing the farther the ball goes with the YS6. I'm sure it's that way with all shafts but it's really noticeable with this one. Hope that helps a little.

Anyone tried these yet? D1 and D2? Also how do the Aldila VS feel? Low launch? Tks.

      How Much Water do You Need to Drink?

      By WUTiger · Posted

      I have trouble with vertigo on occasion, but have gotten nutritional and biofeedback tips to keep it at bay. Dehydration can help trigger v-like symptoms so one recommendation, along with maintaining overall hydration, is to start with 8 oz. of water early in the morning. A meta-analysis on Golf As Physical Activity indicated that golf is rated as a moderately intensive physical activity. This scientific literature review came from the University of Edinburgh. The physical activity level ties into hydration. A former university colleague was a marathon runner who had published a couple of articles on endurance training. He likewise said that golf was a moderate physical activity especially when the round stretched past  the two-hour mark. For hydration he recommended switching from water to electrolyte drink on the back nine (past two hour point of exercise) to prevent cramping. At the two-hour point of moderate activity, water starts flushing electrolytes out of the body, which can lead to fatigue and cramping. (I have had trouble with leg cramps in the past during exertion.) During a round, I start out with water on the front nine and switch to sports drink on the back nine. If the day is unusually hot, I may drink 8 oz. of Pedialite concentrate before going to the course. Maintaining overall hydration plus on-course boosters keeps me going.

      Puerto Vallarta Vacation / Vidanta

      By Mystique · Posted

      Personally I’d try booking direct first - either via the Vidanta golf reservations number/email or through the resort concierge - especially for Christmas/New Year. Vidanta’s main courses (Greg Norman and Nicklaus designs) are popular and can book out fast this time of year, so direct often gives you the best shot at your preferred tee times.
