So these are 2 of the new models out for 2013 and I am struggling to work out which one is better.  I have traditionally been a Titleist fan but in my research so far thinking that the Ping might be worth a look.  Very interested to hear which one you would go for? or if you have already had experience with one - well the Ping anyway...

I've hit both and currently testing the Anser for review.  Both are really good.  The 913 has more options in terms of adjustability.  The Anser has a similar shape to the G20/913 D2 with the black matte finish and produced lower spin than both those drivers.  In terms of spin, the Anser is between the G20 and i20.  D3 has a more compact head, very similar to the 910 D3, sounds great and I would say has similar spin characteristics to the Anser.

You can't really go wrong with either, just depends on the look you prefer at address.

No driver is better than any other at that level.

You need to find one you like the look of and try to get the right shaft.

Another person's experience will;have no bearing at all on your own impressions.

You have to make up yoiur own mind.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

totally different drivers d3 is more of a tp, its small. i started off good with it but as the season went on i just couldnt hit it. its not for you average joe. i picked up the ping anser today. it compares to the d2 which my buddy has and I can hit. i liked the anser right away and according to the monitor I hit pretty well so I said eff it. its not as adjustable ut im kind of over adjustability and had it back to A1 anyway.

I went for a fitting yesterday for the 913. Ended up going for the D3 in 8.5 with a prolaunch red stiff shaft in. Beautiful controlled flight with a bit of run on the ball. Super happy with results, can't wait to get it from Titleist & get out there :)

      Went up to Erie for a lesson. I still need to work on how I shift my weight into my right leg and turn into the right leg. I extend it too much and externally rotate it too much. That all causes me to over rotate the hips and cause weight shift issues in the downswing. I need to feel like my right leg gains flex (it doesn’t), and my knee cap faces forward. The right hip sinks back and right. I need a need a ton more internal rotation. I still have some right elbow issues in the backswing. The path is better, but too much right elbow bend. I need to maintain width in the right elbow and let my right shoulder retract more, let’s say at A3, which helps keep that right arm extended.
