518TitleistX's incarnation of golfing perfection.


Recommended Posts

Great write up on the fitting and congrats on bringing down the handicap. Curious if you compared the T-MB 2 & 4 against the AP2 3 & 3 irons and what the results were.

 

I did not test the ap2 long irons. They saw the results with the T-MB I already had and we're very happy with the performance of that clubhead for me. The heads just needed the proper shafts.

73 gross, great playing man! Love the WITB, 917s sound like a no brainer for you. Still on the fence on how much time and $ I want to put into them, but if I do go down that road, I'll do TPI :)

 

That Manchester set up looks like TPI, top notch and personally I think the $ is worth every penny if you're set on Titleist.

I hit the 917D2 8.5* with HZRDUS black 6.5 on 9/17 and was at 1850 spin, 14* launch carrying 285 and rolling to 310 with a 115.9mph swing speed on track man. I'm content with those results

For someone like you who really needs to drop spin, I would suggest looking at other brands for a driver. King LTD or F6+ would be your best bets if you want to keep the forgiveness of the Titleists. M1 if you don't need that

 

You just don't leave guys who like Titleist alone, huh? Man, even following guys to their own thread!

Im not even sure where to begin. so much has happened since the last time i updated this. ill try and hit a few bullet points....

 

1.) Handicap has continued to drop and now has settled at a 3.8 to close out the season here in NY.

 

2.) I missed the cut at the NYS Mid-Amateur by 1 shot by 3-putting my 18th hole....shot 79 and 78 made the day 1 cut.

 

3.) I played Oak Hill C.C. for the NYSGA Amateur series championship and took Low gross honors With a 73 (+2) to win. (link added)

http://www.nysga.org...hip-at-oak-hill

 

4.) I identified my 915F 3w as a weak point of my game... not sure if it was the shaft, the head, the setting or what but had wayyy too many shots snapping hard left on me...soooo i went out and picked up the 917F2 13.5* with a Diamana D+ 80TX 14grm weight set in the toe... played a 9 hole scramble with it this past saturday and lasered a pin on a long par5 at 299yds for my 2nd shot (note this was a scramble) so i gave myself a good flyer lie and proceeded to put the ball just past pin high on the green in 2. this thing is an absolute cannon.

 

5. Here's some pictures....

Great playing! Are you still enjoying the 716 AP2's?

 

Loving them. solid and firm feel, yet still give good feedback on where the shot was struck on the face.

Awesome T!! Glad to hear your season improved bit by bit throughout the year. Also it's cool to see that every bag change, made legit improvements. Sorry to hear about NYS Mid-Amateur. Damn one shot.... Well looking ahead, it's great experience and next year will be a bit easier, best of luck to you next year. .

 

The 716 AP2 were the first new Titleist clubs in my bag. By far the best all around irons I've played. Plenty forgiving, but can hit whatever trajectory or whatever when needed (tha I've played).. I think it'll be tough for the AP2 718 to be considerably better than the current 716 to make a switch.

 

I see you your currently gaming the 816h2 hybrid. Did you game the 915HD or H? I went with the 915H due to the fact they were close to the original Nike VRS in shape and size, but the HD/H2 definitely sparks interest. Curious your thoughts on them, and if you played H or H1?

 

Lastly any interest in the 917 line, driver or fairway? Seems people are seeing decent improvement over the 917 F2/3 vs 915F/FD?

 

Anyways hope all is well, and we need to get out and play next season at some point (but I need strokes haha). Enjoy the holidays.

Thank you first and foremost, i appreciate the kind words. Secondly, i did play the 915Hd once upon a time. it lost out to the 816H2 handily for me. I did play the 915F 13.5* for the majority of this season and found it wanted to go left on me at the most inopportune times. I just recently upgraded to the 917F2 13.5* and posted pictures in my last post. It's miles better, longer with better spin. Amazing fairway wood. As far as the driver goes, I'm not sure if the 917D2 is going to be worth the upgrade over my 7.5* 915D2.

 

Awesome, congrats!

 

Thanks Tai! Hows life in sunny, southern California? It was a balmy 28*F when i woke up here around Albany, NY today.

Did you happen to see an increase launch/peak height in the 917F2 vs 915F? From what I've read it seems that the 917 is easier to hit high. That's the only thing that scare me about the F2 vs F3. Before the 915FD I was playing the Nike VRS that I received from WRX for review, but it seemed to go a bit high (just seems the VRS and F/F2 were built alike, larger, a shallow head). Also do you find that you have large gap between the 13.5*F2 vs 19* hybrid?

 

I'm about 99% positive I'm going with 15* F3.... I think lol. I'll have to make a trip down to exit 8 and hopefully hit both the F2 and F3.

I do have a good size gap between the 3w and the hybrid. When struck well the 3w can push 285-290. The hybrid is a high 240's club when middled. I generally like to keep it in the 225-235 vicinity.

That's awesome. The F3 is really the only club that may go in the bag before the start of our 2017 season. Actually.... verdict is still out on whether 917D3 will stay or go (well, I don't sell clubs cuz when I used to sell something to replace it, i always had a bit of regret, so I've got a stock pile now). But it's just so straight and predictable compared to the SLDR 430, but doesn't get that hit run out, but stays in play considerably more often (maybe a few or more yards shorter on good for good swing, but that random WFT swing is way less punishing for the most part). Have you had a chance to hit the 917 much, at least with your shaft or on a decent LM against you 915 D2 7.5*?

 

Anything in your bag currently that could be possibly be replaced, or are you feeling confident top to bottom at this time?

 

Hope all is well down south :-)

 

EDIT: The 917F2/3 is slightly larger than the 915F/FD, but is it a decent bit larger? Or look the same at address? I need to get to exit 8 and see what these look like lol.

716 T-MB 4i TI X100's 1* strong

716 AP2 5-7i TI X100's 1* strong

716 CB 8-pw TI X100's 2* strong

Could be... gotta find a HZRDUS Black 6.5 62grm that'll play 45" with a TM tip. I should have the head this week...

 

Nice. Looking forward to see what it is, and how it stacks up to your current 915.

 

EDIT: Actually might be a great chance to try to try a universal adapter, and save $150-300. My buddy who's been the head pro at DSG for over a decade lol'd when I mentioned having him put a Club Conex adapter. Went in today and he found one Amazon that's like $40 for the universal tip and comes with all the major OEM adapters for that $40, and is finally getting some for the shop. I'm looking into it tonight, figured it's cheaper than buying another Tensei. If I do get one I'll let you know how it goes.

716CB's came in today with the new shafts (TI X100's). The 8,9,PW found their way into the bag already. The new driver head should be here tomorrow. Working on finding a driver shaft for it to be an apples to apples test against the 7.5* 915D2. Winner gets the spot in the bag.

HandCrafted HZRDUS black 6.5 62grm has been ordered for the new driver head. Will get that here and prepped for install. Can't wait to put this up against the 915D2 I was fitted for at Titleist and see which one is longer and more consistent.

Shaft is at northway 8 being prepped. Driver head is here just waiting for the shaft to be completed. Hoping I'll have it back by the weekend to be able to put it through some testing.

Haha funny you ask. I played 18 Saturday and put the new driver in play with the first swing being off the 1st tee. Hard to judge at the moment because every shot hit and plugged where it landed that day. I can only compare based on my playing partners who I played with regularly last year. With the Titleist 915D2 I was around 5-10 yards behind one of my buddies. With the new driver I was 10-15 in front of him all day. Also we played one par 5 that was 475yds straight away. Hit driver... which subsequently plugged on landing, then 5iron to 12feet. I'm excited to see how this performs in dryer weather.

Wow nice!

 

So you went with the a M1 460 tour issue?

 

Is there many courses open? If me and my buddies decided to make the 1.5 hour drive is it worth to play (temp greens, price, and temperature pending on the day we try to go)? One of the course here posted on FB they may open soon, which I'm guessing is like 10-14 days. Hopefully the range will be open in a week.

yes 2016 Tour Issued M1. It has a different feel than the Titleist 915D2 for sure. As far as courses open, there's 2 that are open down here but not really worth playing until it dries out. Every single shot hits and plugs where it lands. greens are pretty much un-putt-able. water sponges out and covers your shoes. I nearly lost a shoe in a mucky part of the rough trying to hit a shot on one hole. Northway 8 has been open and extremely busy of late on the range. The heated bays are a nice touch this time of year.

Ahhhh so where to start....

 

Sold the 2016 M1. Handicap bounced up to 6.x from 3.8 to start the year. been working on getting it back down. back to a 4.5 currently. played several NYS amateur series tournaments already this year with mixed results. Won a couple local tournaments at my former home club. NYS Mid Amateur qualifier is 9/6 at Pinehaven country club in Albany. Just picked up a 917D2 8.5 head off the BST with a few different weights to try out. Should be a busy next month or so to close out 2017!
