Tour players all playing 909 again?

Hi Bill,

Our player profiles contain the most up-to-date information on what clubs Titleist full line players currently have in their bag.  I'm not sure where you were looking but the profiles we have posted on our site show a number of players who have already transitioned into the 910 including recent winners Geoff Ogilvy and Robert Karlsson.  Here is a link to our player pages so you can see what our Titleist golf ball loyalists and equipment players are currently putting in play: http://www.titleist.com/players/

Hi Mike,

Thanks for the response. I was following the link (Equipment Counts/Wins) under the Players tab and then selected "What the Pros Play". Just found it odd that every player listed under drivers was being shown as still playing the older equipment.

Thanks,

Bill

Hi Bill,

No worries.  Thanks for the clarification on where you were looking and for the catch. I'm working with the team to have this page updated.  Thanks for the heads up.

Hey Mike,

Glad I could help! I am sure that the increase in sales of the 910 that this will now cause due to consumer confidence with this product, now that the site will show that the tour players are now playing it, will now merit titleist in sending me my new custom 910! I will take the 910D3, 8.5 degree with the Diamana Blueboard in the X-stiff shaft. HAHA!

Hope you have a great Christmas,

Bill

I was wondering about this as well. I browse through the players quite often and noticed some players that had the 909's listed, but knew that most were using the 910's.

I LOVE my 909D2, however, the 910D3 is an amazing club as well.

Yes, sir. Great launch. Distance. Feel. Sound...I still use my 909, but, tinker with the 910.

Joshua,

 I traded in the 909D3 for the 910D3 and definitely feel like it was worth the upgrade. I've noticed a better ball flight, sound, and feel with the 910. Of course it may be the shaft, I have the Aldila RIP 60 stiff. The adjustability with the surefit technology is also a very good reason to make the upgrade. Having the ability to dial in your settings for optimal flight is awesome! You can change out shafts any time you like for different courses if you feel like ordering several shafts. Overall I find the 910D3 a better driver than the 909D3, try it out head to head against your 909 and see for yourself which you like better. I have a feeling you will choose the 910.

I will try go demo it when I get back after the holidays, maybe thats what I will be spending my christmas money on, lol. Thanks for the advice, and I will let ou know how it turns out.

Hi guys,

This section is now updated and current once again. Check it out: http://www.titleist.com/players/pros_play.asp

Hey guys,,I have had a 910 d3 for a while now,,i have to tell you the 910 is such a better driver than the 909,,,as a tournament player,and most of you guys know,the hardest thing to do with a driver is dial it in perfectly. The average amatuer dosent have the access,funds or the time to get it just right,,,,this driver is 30-40 min on the range,,it dials up 1.5 degrees or down .75     upright or flat,,open closed,,,Guys it dosnt get better than that!!!!!    Play with this driver and you will never think about 909 again,,,i got more ball speed more distance and much more confident because of this driver. Best one titleist ever biult,,no question!    BY THE WAY I hit the hybrid......... also just as awsome!!!

Lookin' good. Interesting, though, a few players that played the 910's earlier this year has switched back to the 909's (Mr. Stricker, Mr. Fowler, and so on). It's also interesting to see a handful of players still playing with the 905R! I can't blame them though, that was a great driver.

Does anyone have any insight as to why a few of the tour players have gone back to the 909 such as Stricker and Fowler?  Just a curiousity.  I still have a 909 in play and it's fantastic, but I'm still patiently waiting for my 910 to show up :)

Hi Dave,

I checked in with our tour staff and wanted to correct a couple of your points here.  One important note of clarification is around the tour validation process and the tremendous amount of positive feedback that we've heard from the best players in the world since the introduction of the new 910 drivers back in July.  

At the end of the official tournament season,  we had more than 100 players across all professional tours with the new 910 in their bag. This type of tour acceptance really speaks for itself.  

Also, Steve Stricker did not make any major equipment changes this year and had the same series driver in his bag for the entire season. He has been spotted at our Oceanside Test Facility recently putting a new 910 through its paces, so we'll see what the 2011 season has in store.  

As for Rickie Fowler, he did have the 910 back in his bag at the Shark Shootout.

i have a 909d2 love this club has stock voodoo 9.5 stiff i have hit some bombs w/this baby but I went and hit the 910 w/ a whiteboard stock and I think if I get this baby i'll hit it even straighter than 909 so hopefully Santa brings this for me I think I've been a good boy!
