975D 9.5*
Heavy, unforgiving, and no feel, kinda like a number of women I know. Hooked, pulled, sliced, blocked...I've run the gambit round after round. Gotta swing as hard as Tiger to get through the ball. However when hit "between the screws" it is unmatched. Not for the high handicapper or someone trying to groove a swing. Gonna shelve this primordial beast. It'll make a great $425 fire poker for my house in Tahoe. I am an idiot for buying it. Moving to the Callway Hawkeye, lighter, forgiving, and terrific feel @ impact.

975D 9.5 graffaloy stiff
This driver is awesome. The best I've ever hit. I am now averaging at least 250-260 off the tee when I don't hit it that good. When I swing hard and hit it on the sweetspot it goes incredibly far. I'm normally getting up to almost 300 yards and every once in a while a little more. It's a lot more forgiving than most people think, and it's almost impossible to pop it up. I usually tee it up real high and even when the ball hits the very top part of the club it still shoots out real high about 200 yards. Also I shot my first rounds under par with it days after I got it. I recommend it for low to mid handicappers. If you want a lot of forgiveness, and don't mind a really huge clubhead, get a Ping. One more thing, unless you need a flexible shaft, the UST, EI70, and Graffaloy prolite shafts are the way to go. Similar Products Used: Ping TISI, Taylor Made Burner, |

Shoot in the 80s
The club that changed my life. As a lifelong persimmon player (MacGregor Tourney), I had watched my tee distance drop as I was approaching 50 years old. This club changed all that. Back out to 270+ with regularity, generally straight, too. Titleist Select shaft (heavy), regular flex. |

This club is great! I hit it straighter and still about 320 yds. I can see why the tour players are putting this one in their bags. I'd love to own one, but too much $$$. Customer Service Titleist was great when I was fitted for my DCI irons. Similar Products Used: Taylor Ti Bubble2, Big Bertha |

I have the 7.5 degree loft Titleist driver and this is NOT the club for golfers with an inconsistent swing. It offers more power by far than any other driver I have used but any swing imperfections will be greatly magnified. I have a high speed swing and can consistently fly this club 270-280 yards, which is at least 20 yards further than my previous Precept driver. If you're serious about working on your golf game then this driver won't lie to you about your swing. |

Titleist 975D 7.5* EI-70
This has got to be the best driver out there in terms of workability and distance. It is very easy to work the ball with this club and the distance is second to none. I have a Ping TiSi also and haven't faired as well with it as I have with the 975D. One draw back versus the Ping is that the 975D is not as forgiving. Mis-hits are not rewarding as with the Ping but mis-hits are due to a poor swing. The 975D makes you swing properly to get the benefits. Similar Products Used: Ping TiSi |

My 975D is a 9.5 degree loft. It came with a Regular flex shaft. I replaced the shaft with a higher kick, low torque shaft (around $90 US installed). This has helped eliminate shots that leak to the right, and which go too high. I have gained 10-20 yards off the tee, and I am getting more shots in the fairway. I am now really happy with the 975D.

Well, this club was okay...when you catch it a little thin it seems to balloon and just die! But when you catch it solid it is the best out there. So if you are a good ball striker this is the one for you, but if you need a club that is quite forgiving try something else. Similar Products Used: All |

Like it says above...I shoot in the 80s, but that is the low 80s, and before I had this Titlesit it was the high 80s. I went from hitting the ball 190 yards off the tee, to now hitting it 270, and on a good shot I have hit it 300+. This is definately worth the big price tag. Get it in your bag today.

Great club. Has good feel and distance. The best thing about this club is that you can swing hard, and if you heel it, it doesn't balloon and go right. Oh yeah it doesn't baloon at all. Try the EI-70. Similar Products Used: Ping ISI, Steelhead oringinal Ti Burner |
