I am going to be fitted for a shaft around december and im looking at the OBAN kyoshi purple and am pretty sure that will be the shaft i choose, but i am also getting a new head. Currently all i can think about it the titleist 913 d3 as apposed to my rbz tour. Wondering what you guys think though! what heads would you recommend/ use?

I play a Titleist 913 D2 and LOVE it.  The D3 is going to be a bit less forgiving, being aimed at more skilled golfers.  What's your handicap?  If you don't have pretty dang good skills I see no reason to make your driver harder to hit than it needs to be.

And you say you are "going to be fitted" yet you seem to have already decided on a shaft.  If I may, I would strongly suggest that you allow the fitter to help you make that decision on the range with a ball flight monitor!  Titleist has a large selection of shafts available, and they make a huge difference in how the ball performs.  My fitting was a real eye-opener.  Try the both the D2 and D3.  See which works best for you.

Let the fitter do his/her job, or save your money and just order the club with the shaft you want and pray you guessed right.

    • Angular velocity and acceleration caused by torque.
    • He's going for that carelessly disheveled look but it comes off so manufactured and deliberate. Kind of like Boris Johnson. Tool.
    • Ok but seriously, are they allowed to use their phones for Tiktok or YouTube during the lulls? Rory's round took 5 hrs 51 mins
    • Hole 6, you need to hit a 240 ish slight draw. I decided to flight a hybrid. I made the perfect length backswing, I swung down better, and I kept my arms in front of my chest in the finish with a 3/4 finish.  The ball didn’t get to the tree tops, flighted push draw. I really felt that stretch of the club pulling me up into the finish.  2nd is the next shot, a 70 yard waist to waist distance 52 degree wedge that landed 3 yards short of pin high and one hop stop pin high. Nippy. 😁    
    • Shot a 42. Got to making 1/2 to 3/4 my normal swing. Much better tonight. Should have been a few strokes lower. I blades a pitch shot on hole 1. Didn’t get width. Tried to make a 3/4 swing on a par five, but hit it full swing because my 3/4 is a full swing. A 8 iron went 180 yards and hit the cart path over the green into the lateral hazard. 😳
