Looking for a NEW model composite driver with a livelier sound

theothertwo · March 24, 2019

I may be missing out on the composite/titanium drivers because I find composite drivers dead sounding. Always used 100% titanium drivers and it's hard to adjust the sound. Any recommendations? Thanks.

I hear epic flash is loud...

The Cobra F9 is about the best combo of sound/feel of all the composite heads I've tried this year. The M5 Tour was my second choice. I've heard the PXG 0811x Gen 2 sounds fantastic also but I haven't hit it myself yet.

The Srixon Z785 has a quite metallic and lively sound to it.

I dont care for them either but the Cobra F9 does sound good. I am playing the 3W. Rails are fantastic. But whether that carries over and the F9 driver can prevent me from going with the all-titanium Ping 410 plus, I don’t know. Ping is so reliable for me off the tee. The other carbon driver that sounds good to my ear is the Titleist TS lineup.

TS drivers using carbon? Pretty sure they're titanium crowns....Epic Flash and sub zero are carbon crowns that are lively sounding. ...explosive to my ears

LTD sounds great and it won’t cost you much. I have an F9 and a TS3 and I much prefer the sound and “feel” of the LTD.

I think you’re right. My bad on the Titleist. A lot of people knock the Epic Flash for sound. But I have heard Tour players hit it outside and it is fine. Sounds explosive but fine. They may be adding hotmelt for all I know but it is not a clangy sound at all.
