On GolfWRX's forum they have a thread about new gear coming out, and from a post in 2006 they say that Titleist was going to come out with a D4 driver, that is 425cc's. I haven't ever seen one online or in a store, does anyone know if they did come out with it? Thanks for any information.

Here's what I play:

Titleist 907 D2 10.5* UST ProForce V2 76-S | Titleist 906F4 18.5* Aldila VS Proto "By You" 80-S | Titleist 585H 21* Aldila VS Proto "By You" 80-S | Titleist ZB 4-PW TTDG S300 | Bob Vokey Spin Milled Oil Can 54.10 | Bob Vokey Spin Milled Oil Can 60.08 | Scotty Cameron Red X5 33" |

Thanks for the info. Appreciate it. We've seen Titleist; he's a friend of ours.

What forum? Those people that carry Bang drivers are commenting on Titleist drivers?

Mercy me.

Alright thank you very much. This is kind of disappointing because I love the feel to Titleist drivers and I like the smaller heads because I can control it better, and work the ball alot better.

I don't think you can really work the ball with your current SUMO driver either no? I usually work the ball with my 3 wood if I really have to but 99% of the time I don't really work the ball off the tee...

If you really must have a smaller driver that is Titleist then maybe go for the older versions of the driver? My friend uses 983K and he still hits about the same distance as the newer 460cc drivers. (His driver distance is roughly at a respectable distance of 280-290 meters with the older, smaller head Titleist and that should be plenty of pop even for mordern day course ^_^)

hypergolf,

It's much more than simply being able to work the ball. I currently play the D4 and I will tell you, no driver Titleist has ever made is as good a fit for the high launch high spin player. Even the 905S is a high spin head compared the D4. The D4 is incredibly low launch and spin. I've heard grumblings that Titleist was at one time considering making it a custom order only option, but I don't think there are many players in the world whose launch conditions can fit into this head.

Yeah, I can't work the ball with my SUMO, but it was a present from my mom, I like it, I hit it straight and pretty far (for me 235 yards). But here in Alaska at my home course I have to work the ball all over the course, so that's one of the strong parts of my game, so I'm saving to get a smaller headed driver. Any suggestions? Right now I'm looking at the TM R7 425, Bridgestone J33R, any information would be appreciated.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By mdl · Posted

      Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
