The rife putters do role the ball well. I would entertain the yes putter as well if there is a style you like in it. Yes putters have low loft (2.5*) not sure if that would be good for your putting stroke or not. A really wealthy guy here in Lafayette where I live just bought part of Rife. His last name is Marino, he owns a really big oil company here. Just thought I would throw that in.

Every store is different. I would go visit both to get a real feal for each sites service.

Agreed aboout the normal golf stores. Finding a store that has selections of multiple heads and shafts is sort of difficult where I am at. Golfballs.com is the best selection. Right now I am hitting the 07 Burner 10.5* stiff flex. It is a light shaft 50 grams. I am not sure what the kickpoint is on it. I feel like the shaft is a little to light for me. Seems like the shaft bends maybe to much at impact.

Hello everyone. I was hoping that I could reach out to you all to see if any of you had any knowledge of where or how is the best way to get fit for driver, woods, and hybrids? I have always been fit for my irons and wedges, but have never been properly analized for woods and hybrids. I have purchased many different drivers and have not yet found full success. The problem that I cross is in my swing I do not get an abudance of wrist hinge, which causes me to have to much lag at impact. This causes the ball to fly low with very low spin. It is difficult for me to get to 10* launch angle at times and my normal spin rate is in the 1300-1700 range. My ball will normally fly 240 then roll out an additional 40 to 50 yards on a dry day. My current driver is a 2007 Taylormade Burner 10.5 stiff. I actually hit it pretty descent, but I am just looking for something new that is out there that has newer technology. Any and all input will be appreciated! Thanks everyone.

Well done Erik. Your findings are similiar/identical to mine. I have been playing the AP2's for 2 weeks now and find a tremendous difference. Before these clubs I was hitting the 755's. The difference in consistency of shots, height of ball flight, feel of shots, looks of club, and workability as far from the 755's. Technology is getting better and better and it is shown in the AP2's.

I'm going to have to go with Ecco. I have the footjoy, ecco, nike, and addidas. Given every model feels different from the classics to the powerbands. Ecco are my most comfortable shoes.

I was hitting the 755's, and just went to the AP2's on Tuesday. I have played twice on the Robert Trent Jones Trail with them, and I will say that I love them. They set up great to the ball and are very crisp. The feel of the AP2's compared to the 755's are very different in my opinion. Another set that I really liked where the MX25's. I didn't care for the MP57's to much. My though process was that the MX25 and the AP2's felt the same to me, so then I went to looks and the AP's looked better to me than the MX. Are the ZB the mixed set? If they are what I am thinking of they have blade type irons in the higher lofts and cavity back in the lower lofts. Sorry, I don't know much about that set. I just wanted to give you my viewpoint on the AP2's. Good Luck, and I would suggest taking the clubs out to an actual driving range to hit off of real turf. You should be able to get a demo in a 6 iron of each. This will help you to see the ball flight and ease of working the ball....if thats important to you.

I too like the Z-URS balls. I used to play the ProV1X, but I found with my Titleist "Spin Milled" Wedges the ball got tore up very quickly because of the grooves. The cover on the Srixon holds up better than the Titleist in my opinion. I could hit a Titleist once with my Spin Mill and tear "fish scales" if you want to call it that in the cover. If anyone else is expereincing the same thing I would suggest trying the Srixon. Z-URS and Z-URC are both good balls that do spin well on greens and are long on the woods.

I struck my irons pretty well today too. It's funny how one day I am all about buying game improvement irons, because I hit my irons bad, then the next day I decide to stick with a player club. I think my final decision is to get 5-6 in the AP1 and 7-P in the AP2. Now I need to figure out which shaft is right.

Let me know what you think about the AP's. I may go out to a neighboring CC to their demo day. I know Titleist will be out there. Take care.

Doctorfro, Keep me in the loop as to what you find. I am in the EXACT same boat as you, and it looks like are playing skills are =. I am looking for all the same things you are. Forgiving, soft feel, straight for the most part, but if I have to hit a fade or draw I can do so. Look is also important to me. Like you I am not into the thick top line. On the driver side, I am hitting the regular Burner, but put a custom shaft in it. There is a guy in Lake Charles, LA who does shafts, and I can say his efforts have lowered my ball flight and given me much more roll (reduced backspin). My misses aren't as bad either. I would suggest getting the right shaft for your driver when you take that route as well. It's very important, and I am sure everyone here would agree.

Myndcraft, thanks for the post of the review. With that said I need the AP 2's. Once again thanks!

I own two pair of Ecco and six pair of Footjoy. Ecco is by far more comfortable, and when I walk I always where those. My Foojoy are classics, except for my one pair of dryjoys. Dryjoys aren't bad, but the Ecco, I am a firm beliver and love their quality and comfort. Good luck!

Here is my bad and clubs. Bought the bag a couple months back from Japan.

Hello. I am new to this site. I actually came across it as I was doing research on reviews and feedback from the new Titleist AP irons. I am a 7 handicap, and have struggled with my iron play at times. As you all know every day is different....one day you are knocking down the flag with crisp iron play and others your hitting it fat and thin with no confidence over the ball. Right now I am playing the 755 Titleist, and have had pretty good play with them. I can hit the ball high, low, and with a draw. I have struggled to play a fade. I am just looking to get the new technology in my bag. Feel, forgiveness, and some what workability is important to me....I'm asking for it all right!!! Do you guys have any thoughts on which is better for me? AP1 or AP2? I love the appearence of the AP2, but feel that the AP1's may be a better fit for off center shots when those bad days arise. I would love to hear your feedback and support in making the decision. Thanks and happy to be here! Paul
