Its a shame Titleist didn't also follow the Taylor lead of making their weights interchangeable between designs.

and titleist to do a release every 6 mos?

Just because a company releases a product…doesn't mean you have to buy it.

i haven't read it stated if the new d3 is deeper faced or not, anyone?

When putting it side by side with my 913, you can't tell a difference. Doesn't mean they are identical but if it's deeper, you can't tell visually.

Makes me wonder if the only substantial change is the ARC. If that's the case, then ho-hum.

Hit them yesterday. Wrote a little review in another thread. [url="http://www.golfwrx.com/forums/topic/1074841-titleist-915-its-new-and-its-coming-fastit-is-better-than-expected/page__st__180"]http://www.golfwrx.com/forums/topic/1074841-titleist-915-its-new-and-its-coming-fastit-is-better-than-expected/page__st__180[/url]

To recap -

915 is the real deal. Went to Manchester Lane for a fitting. Overly impressed by the new line and like the other testimony so far I too have added considerable length.

Current Setup - 913 8.5 Deg D3 with GD Tour AD BB 7x and 913 15 Deg Fd with Diamana D+ 82x. To date this driver setup has been one of the best I've hit and one of the best shafts, just flat out works for me. Trackman was spitting out averages of about 2200 - 2300 rpm, 9.5 - 10 deg launch, and ball speed was around 166 to 168. 3 wood has been a love hate relationship. 3000 - 3200 rpm, 13ish deg launch, ball speed high 150s.

915 D3 - Love everything about it. Looks like a Titleist at address and feels like one when you swing it. For anybody complaining about the alignment aid don't bother because you don't even notice it; after one swing I never thought twice about it. Driver is considerably louder than the 913, not obnoxious by any means, but if you like a dead muted sound you might want to add some hot melt to it. Hit a bunch of different shafts. No, I didn't hit the Rogue if you are going to ask. They didn't have an X Stiff on hand (did hit it in the 915 Hd hybrid though) Anyhow, the 915 is really forgiving. Toe and heel shots barely made my numbers move on the trackman besides the distance which is expected on anything off center. So the arc isn't a gimmick and actually does what they said it would do. A 9.5 D3 with Tour AD DI 7x tipped an inch was the winner and produced the best numbers out of the endless number of combos. Tried same shaft in the 8.5 and the spin was way to low, back down in the low 2000's. Averages with this combo were 2500 - 2600 rpm, 11.5, and 172 mph ball speed which was producing a 286 - 290 carry (total distance was about another 24 yards).

915 F - Hit the Fd and loved the smaller head but the F produced better numbers. These things are ridiculously hot and even more forgiving. To the point I wouldn't even need a driver. Bad miss hits, even super thin, fly almost as far as pure. I have the D+ in my 913 and ended up putting up the best numbers with the S+ tipped an inch. Off the deck I was getting 14 deg launch, 2900 rpm, 162 mph ball speed which was 270 - 275 carry.

H and Hd - Hate hybrids but thought since I was there why not. If I were to get one I would definitely get the Hd. Awesome shape and small size. Hit the Rogue (not sure of weight) in X and Tour AD DI 105x. They fly far, high, and straight. Didn't screw around with numbers because I was just hitting for fun at that point, but put a few balls on the target green that was 260 out.

I am definitely putting my order in asap for the driver and fairway. I think they are far superior to the 910 (also owned) and 913. Titleist will do quite well with this release and I think most people will be impressed with the 915 line. You will see your spin rates drop and most likely will find yourself going up in loft; I've never played anything but 8.5 and felt perfectly fine going to the 9.5. If anybody lives close I would highly recommend going to Manchester Lane at some point to get fitted. Send me a message about it if you want more info but I will be doing that from now on for all new releases.

So in summary, the 915 was spinning about 500-700 rpm lower than your 913?

I wouldn't say that much. I hit the 8.5 on my shaft and I think it was around 2000, so a few hundred. That's just me though and it probably depends on the player. I fall into the category of not spinning it enough (even had a couple in the 1900) so they were really working to fit me into something that would get the spin up to something in the ideal range, which they said was about 2450 - 2600.

Lucky you. I'm spinning my 913 D3 8.5 close to 3000, sometimes more, so if the 915 can put me in the low-mid 2000s, I would be a happy customer! I'm such a Titleist fan-boy, it makes me sick... :bad:

915 F - Hit the Fd and loved the smaller head but the F produced better numbers. These things are ridiculously hot and even more forgiving. To the point I wouldn't even need a driver. Bad miss hits, even super thin, fly almost as far as pure. I have the D+ in my 913 and ended up putting up the best numbers with the S+ tipped an inch. Off the deck I was getting 14 deg launch, 2900 rpm, 162 mph ball speed which was 270 - 275 carry.

H and Hd - Hate hybrids but thought since I was there why not. If I were to get one I would definitely get the Hd. Awesome shape and small size. Hit the Rogue (not sure of weight) in X and Tour AD DI 105x. They fly far, high, and straight. Didn't screw around with numbers because I was just hitting for fun at that point, but put a few balls on the target green that was 260 out.

I am definitely putting my order in asap for the driver and fairway. I think they are far superior to the 910 (also owned) and 913. Titleist will do quite well with this release and I think most people will be impressed with the 915 line. You will see your spin rates drop and most likely will find yourself going up in loft; I've never played anything but 8.5 and felt perfectly fine going to the 9.5. If anybody lives close I would highly recommend going to Manchester Lane at some point to get fitted. Send me a message about it if you want more info but I will be doing that from now on for all new releases.

So in summary, the 915 was spinning about 500-700 rpm lower than your 913?
[/quote]

I wouldn't say that much. I hit the 8.5 on my shaft and I think it was around 2000, so a few hundred. That's just me though and it probably depends on the player. I fall into the category of not spinning it enough (even had a couple in the 1900) so they were really working to fit me into something that would get the spin up to something in the ideal range, which they said was about 2450 - 2600.
[/quote]

Lucky you. I'm spinning my 913 D3 8.5 close to 3000, sometimes more, so if the 915 can put me in the low-mid 2000s, I would be a happy customer! I'm such a Titleist fan-boy, it makes me sick... :bad:

Dont pre release the club head or hit down on it, I could hit a 913 @ 2200 w/ positive AOA, i also could hit it 3200 rpms with a craptastic effort on this Indians part

Hit them yesterday. Wrote a little review in another thread.

To recap -

915 is the real deal. Went to Manchester Lane for a fitting. Overly impressed by the new line and like the other testimony so far I too have added considerable length.

Current Setup - 913 8.5 Deg D3 with GD Tour AD BB 7x and 913 15 Deg Fd with Diamana D+ 82x. To date this driver setup has been one of the best I've hit and one of the best shafts, just flat out works for me. Trackman was spitting out averages of about 2200 - 2300 rpm, 9.5 - 10 deg launch, and ball speed was around 166 to 168. 3 wood has been a love hate relationship. 3000 - 3200 rpm, 13ish deg launch, ball speed high 150s.

915 D3 - Love everything about it. Looks like a Titleist at address and feels like one when you swing it. For anybody complaining about the alignment aid don't bother because you don't even notice it; after one swing I never thought twice about it. Driver is considerably louder than the 913, not obnoxious by any means, but if you like a dead muted sound you might want to add some hot melt to it. Hit a bunch of different shafts. No, I didn't hit the Rogue if you are going to ask. They didn't have an X Stiff on hand (did hit it in the 915 Hd hybrid though) Anyhow, the 915 is really forgiving. Toe and heel shots barely made my numbers move on the trackman besides the distance which is expected on anything off center. So the arc isn't a gimmick and actually does what they said it would do. A 9.5 D3 with Tour AD DI 7x tipped an inch was the winner and produced the best numbers out of the endless number of combos. Tried same shaft in the 8.5 and the spin was way to low, back down in the low 2000's. Averages with this combo were 2500 - 2600 rpm, 11.5, and 172 mph ball speed which was producing a 286 - 290 carry (total distance was about another 24 yards).

915 F - Hit the Fd and loved the smaller head but the F produced better numbers. These things are ridiculously hot and even more forgiving. To the point I wouldn't even need a driver. Bad miss hits, even super thin, fly almost as far as pure. I have the D+ in my 913 and ended up putting up the best numbers with the S+ tipped an inch. Off the deck I was getting 14 deg launch, 2900 rpm, 162 mph ball speed which was 270 - 275 carry.

H and Hd - Hate hybrids but thought since I was there why not. If I were to get one I would definitely get the Hd. Awesome shape and small size.

Damn, my wallet is in for a beating. Well my driver is already ordered so keeping fingers crossed I somehow get it prior to November. Going to hold off on the fairway for little.

The 905 line were $500 iirc.

Still going to be damn steep with an upcharged shaft. Luckily my best buddy is a PGA pro who uses ping so i can pick up Titleist gear at less than cost price. :victory:

How different are these drivers going to be from the 913?

I've used the 8.5 in every titleist driver since 99

Is there any point in me going to get fitted or should I just get same spec as my 913?

Thanks for your input. I agree, I do typically have a slight negative AoA, which I would like to be level or slightly upward. I just get such a huge draw when I come up on the ball, it makes for hitting strait laser beam drive hard. Anyhoo, interested to see what the 915 brings. Till then, the SLDR and Cobra Bio Cell Pro are in my near future :pimp:

      Early in hand photos of the new GT2 models t the truck.  As soon as they show up on the range in player's bags we'll get some better from the top photos and hopefully some comparison photos against the last model.
