Calling all 910 D2 owners.

One or two words of warning, if you intend to cut down a shaft it will change its characteristics….will probably make it stiffer with less feedback. IMO go to a Titleist fitter and try some different shafts there. I have a Prolaunch red in mine, it’s a little bit stiff for my swing speed but the regulars are too loose. RIP is a great shaft also. If it's too long I would offload the shaft and get fitted for a new one.

I'm starting to lose the love of my Titleist 910 driver, just struggling with it and as a result hitting more and more 3 woods off the tee too hit fairways.

Strange as driving is usually one of the strongest most consistant parts of my game.

Playing well enough but the confidence is gone with the big dog, shot 73 earlier this week and hit 4 drivers, none on the fairway.

I'm the opposite. Loving the 910D3... but that might be the fact that my last driver had a steel girder in it... which was then tipped a bit to make it even more fun.

Hitting a good yardage with it setup flat at std loft. Even managed to hit the 3 par 5 tracks in two over the last weekend after spanking the driver way down the central strip. Something I've not done for a while. It might however be swing changes which are to blame for hitting it in a straight line... So don't go out and buy one on the back of me hitting it where I want to for a change.

I've got mine set on C2 for the home course.

I'm slightly confused by some of the comments in the previosu posts. i was under the impression that the idea behind the surefit stuff was that to give you a better trajectory/spin than your standard loft/lie to suit whatever course your playing rather to act as an extra level of custom fit.

If you can only hit the shots you want with for example the setting at D2, then have you not just bought teh worong club?

znuffzz,

there are a number of uses for the adjustable drivers.

1. Speed if custom fit. Rather than having to get fitted, order and wait for the club. The fitter can simply dial in the adjustments there and then.

2. Ability to change as your swing changes. Most of us are on an improvement path and our swing is not static and will be changing as we improve. With the adjustability you can re-adjust the club to better suit your swing as it improves rather than have to change or re-fit our drivers every 3-6 months.

3. Setup for a specific course\conditions. As you say you might have a course that favours a fade, so you setup the driver so you're normal swing creates a fade etc.

Tommo, the driver shaft seems to be the +2" option, it measures 46" when off the club tip to butt.

If I reduce it by 2" at the butt end wouldn't this just return the club to std? Relatively speaking the stiffness may change slightly but I doubt that the stiffness would be any different to a club bought as a std in the first place. What do you thiink?

I think we've already established that the std shaft measures 44" off the club with a red dot weight in the head (7g) which is what I will end up with.

I contacted the guy who I bought the club from and he swears blind that its std length. I need to contact Aldila to make 100% sure before I do anything else.

Mystery solved. Got the club checked out and guess what? It had been extended by 2" , under the grip a small bit of shaft was shoved in the butt - a bodge to say the least.

To be fair seller sent me a brand new Titleist 360 grip and some money back - he didnt know that it was extended.
