Titleist 975 J Pro Titanium

Summary:
This is the best driver that I have ever had. I have the UST Proforce 75 S flex shaft in it and the low torque lets me hit it a mile every time. I can always hit it confidently with this club and there is nothing better than I have had. I drove 100 miles to Golf Mart in Dublin Ca to spend $30.00 on a new driver. That was 4 years ago. Why spend an arm and a leg for new stuff when there is tons of quality used equipment for much much less.

Summary:
I bought my Titleist 975J several years ago. It was the first driver that I ever really felt comfortable with. Eventually, I "graduated" to a Taylormade R7 425. This year I bought a used Cleveland Launcher 400 driver as a backup. Both clubs are nice and I have nothing bad to say about them. I was having problems hitting fairways this year though. My wife had pulled my 975J out of the basement to use in a company golf event. I had forgotten about it. Just for fun I put it back in my bag and took it to the range. Wow!! Why did I ever let this club go? I hit it straighter AND farther. Trust me. Bigger is not better.

Customer Service:
None needed.

Titleist 975j 8.5

Summary:
I'm getting back into golf after a ten year lay off (played some in college) and man oh man. Last week I picked up a used Titleist 983 at a local Golf Galaxy and was happy with this one. Was in another Golf Galaxy this weekend and was just looking around. Knowing that I needed to have a spare I picked up this 975. Before I selected it, I tried out the 905, the R7 and the R5 and honestly this is the only one that felt any good. Took it to the range last night and after getting my swing in order, man oh man, it seemed to want to run as far away as it could from the club head. Every time I swung it. It was easily topping 200 and for me who was hitting 150 a few weeks ago this is amazing.

Summary:
I've been taking up golf again and decided it was time to start trying some real players clubs. I didn't want to invest a whole lot of money, so I picked up a Titleist 975J 8.5 with a UST stiff shaft online for $20. It's amazing! I've test drove a number of newer drivers such as the R5, R7, Big Bertha 454, Hi-Bore and none of them suited me quite like the 975J does. My previous driver is an Nickent Super Concorde and while I had some success with it, it's night and day with the Titleist.

Some people may think a smaller headed driver is harder to hit than the new big ones but I didn't find that to be true. When I drive this Titleist, it carries about 240-250 in the air and rolls maybe another 20 yards. It has great momentum when it lands. Now my consistancy isn't where I want it to be, but I'm sure with a little practice, this club will satisfy me for a very long time!

By the way, the club also sounds and looks amazing. It's also great to see people's faces when they see the size of it! Ha!

Customer Service:
Not needed, but I bought the club from Globalgolf.com and would not hesitate to buy from them again. They are fantastic!
