When I hook the ball. The flight is more lower trajectory. This may seem like a bad analogy just like a right hand baseball hitter hitting a very hard foul line drive down the 3rd base side. perhaps I am coming across or perhaps mishitting. I kind of think is all due to over swinging. My friend I play with keeps telling me to let the club do the work and dont try to kill it. I am doing much better but when I hit a very long good ball. I get the tendency to swing harder on my next tee ball. I have made big improvement in playing with someone that knows how to play and can tell me what I do wrong and lets me know when I do something right. Thanks for the reply

I also play a D2 however a friend of mine who is very long hitter (around 320) tried several drivers at a pro shop along with his Cobra and he was cositantly longer with his Cobra. The new Cleveland XLS showed a tighter group. Don't know if he tried a D2 or not. I do know he tried a G10, the XLS Cleveland and the new Burner along with a new Cobra. He said his Cobra that he currently has was the longest. Of course he is use to his own club.

Just curious when hitting my driver if I swing more across the ball and not throughwhat effect would it have hook or slice. At times I hit my driver really well. I use to have a terrible slice and I started changing my grip. I would turn my my left hand clockwise a little so I could see 2 knuckles and I have loosened my grip quiet a bit. Most of the time I am perfect straight but on ocassions I hit a draw. I either think I am swinging harder than normal or a friend says sometimes I come across the ball instead of through. Thanks

A friend of mine really likes the PD soft, I think I will try them. thanks -
I liked AJ except for the one hole. You know which one I am talking about. I was even par the first 3 holes and cant remember which hole it was but you layup twice and wound up chipping short of the green and my ball rolled down the hill twice before I got it to finally stick up there. Nearly set a personal high record on that hole. lol

Just curious what is your alls favorite golf training videos. Thanks

Thinking about playing something different than my usual Callaway HX Hot. My Driver swing speed is probably around 85 to 90. Would like to find a low to med spin that does decent around the greens. Besides the Distance straight I am also considering the Precept Laddie X. I really like the Callaway IX Tour I just dont want to spend that much on a ball. Thanks

Thanks I hit about 20 balls today and so I think its about the same distance of my 983K. However I did not warm up and have not played in about 3 weeks. I may have been rushing my swing a little also. I may see about getting a 65g v2 put in it.

Here is the link from my auction. What I got looks like the exact pic. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=350128322441 maybe some you titleist experts can tell something from the pics. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=350128322441 Thanks

I was thinking the same thing probably be better off spending 20 more and find me another good used cg11 0r cg12

I have looked at the D2 many times at my LGS and it looks exact. If it were to be a copy they went to a lot of trouble since they have a titleist/aldilia (spec grid 67) shaft in it. Of course it could be a copy. I think its the real thing especially at the amount of sales and his high 99.8 reviews. However I have heard of a lot of copys out there. One other thing it had of course it could have been fake also it had what looks to ge an original bar code ticket on the shaft that had the description and bar code and the original $399.99 price on it.

I just recieved my Titleist 907 D2. It has the Titleist/Aldila specg grid shaft. No head cover. I can't believe I bought it new for $90.99 shipped. It still has the $399.99 price tag on it. Should be a good upgrade from my 983K.

flap would love to see pics

I am thinking about getting new grips for my 3 and 7 wood. Any suggetions on a grip for a golfer that does not wear a glove. I am sure my LGS may have some suggestions. I was thinking about a Winn Xi7. (6xi-BBL)Thanks

I was browsing on different golf sites and ran across one My Spy Golf and there was a pop up for a free wedge so I signed up and it gave me an ad and a number to call. In the fine print all I have to pay is shipping $24.95. Anyway I have 2 questions. 1st are these decent wedges? 2nd Since I do need a wedge and my highest loft wedge is a 52 CG11 should I get a 55 or a 57. Thanks
-
I have a feeling it is a Spec Grid 67 shaft. Because the ebay ad states it is a Titleist shaft made by Aldila. Any comments one the 907 D2 with this shaft. Thanks
-
Thanks for the shaft info I really wanted the 65g UST V2 but according to the specs this shaft should be close to as good. However for $90.99 shipped for one like new it sure sounds like a very good deal. My LGS has them marked down to $249.99 since the 909's has came out. I am sure it should be an improvement over my 983K wich has a Titleist shaft. I could always reshaft the 907 with the UST V2 and put the proto in the 983K. Thanks again
-
I just bought a 907 D2 off of the bay and was wondering if anyone has any additional info on the shaft. The only info in the ad is Aldila for Titleist . Oh I dont have a fast swing so I bought a 10.5 R Flex. Thanks Steve

I have played for several years and never have had anyone to show me anything so I have quit playing a couple different times in my life. I started playing again back in the summer and was as bad as ever. I did not have a up to date driver then my brother gave me his old 983K (9.5 reg flex) and after a friend taught me how to swing and how to modify my grip and another friend finally taught me to not try to kill the ball. I can consistently hit my 983K around 220 to 240 straight most of the time. One friend has a 905R and a 907 D2(he is a lefty) and said that I should look into one of those. My 983K has a Titleist shaft and I was thinking about getting the reg flex V2 shaft installed and just stay with the 983K. ANyway I really like mine. Sorry for the long post.

I really dont know that much about the Bridgstone balls but one guy I play with ocassionally plays the E6. He mentioned yesterday that he wants to try the 330 RX. He said they are new and our LGS was only able to order 15 Dozen and said they had sold 9 of them before they got them in. I looked at the specs and with my slower swing speed looks like they may be a good ball for me.
