You should post your swing hitting the 913.

I have posted my swing on this site before.  Yes, I can hit it 340, as can many others on this site.  It was measured with a gps.   My SS is in the high 118-ish mph.  Some people that are not sure about buying this driver are reading to see what people think of it.  I have posted many reviews with data etc on this site over the years to help people out, just like many others.  Troll somewhere else please.

I'm having the Golf Mechanic build me a D2 9.5* with a Fujikura Rombax Platinum , should be here sometime next week. Too bad I'm only going to be able to hit it at the driving range, Old man winter is coming.

Where are you getting your platinum? I'm contemplating selling mine to a buddy, but I don't know a fair price based on the lack platinums in the US.
If I didn't have a AD BB on the way for my future 913 I would have put a tip on and given it a try.

Maybe I'm missing something, but that post was caused by someone asking to see your swing?  Seems reasonable...

I hit the D2 8.5 with D+ white stiff in a store yesterday. My swing speed is around 114mph. Right now i'm using an old TM made for diamana in x. I hurt my rotator cuff swinging it so i'm looking for something easier to handle. I was not nearly as impressed with the Diamana + as I was with the real Fubuki or blue boards. At least for me it did not have that silky smooth feel. My launch was much lower than my taylormade diamana and thats an X-flex. I hit 4 or 5 low bullets about 298 yards on the simulator. My misses were on the heel, my misses with my TM are on the toe. I was excited about this driver and "real deal" shaft but needless to say i will try some other shaft offerings.

A shaft wont make you hit it on the toe or heel, that is the length of the driver.

[Cpr3584]

Yea i know i play the TM at 45.5 and misses are mostly toe side. Titleist is 45. I'm hoping to gain accuracy because i am too wild with the TM.

How are the reviews of the D+ so far compared to the ahina, white board, fubuki etc. ?

So I walked out on the course this morning and endured a 30 minute frost delay.  range closed too.  Walked out on the first tee having never hit the D+ outdoors.  Proceeded to hit all but one fairway today…and the one fairway I didn't hit was because I didn't bring a fairway wood today - and tried to bunt a 250 yard shot out just short of a lake.  Got slow on the shot and the body stalled - club kept going and snatched it in the the houses down the left.  Stupid play on my part.

Love this club - don't love the new tingy sound but it's not as bad as some.

[BogeyLJA]

I had previously posted that the D+ X wasn't working for me (it's in the BST now)... I've played a 910 D3 with a Speeder 7.2 for the last year or so. Today I put the Speeder in the 913 and couldn't be happier. I can honestly say it was my best day off the tee box I've had in a long time. Longer than the 910 for sure (with the exact same shaft), nice work Titleist!

What were the difference for you between the D+72 and the 7.2? Is it the regular 7.2 or the TS?

Hstead, I actually do have to apologize I read the order of comments wrong and was referring to someone else. My apologizes with getting that confused and blowing up with WRONG facts. However, yes I still said post your swing and I'm not looking to dismiss your 300+ yard drives. It still would be nice to see your swing and results since obviously the 913 is working so well for you. I don't normally get into arguments on this site so think what you want, but you seemed to get very defensive about how far you hit it and how fast you swing all because I said post your swing. I'm not here to doubt your swing, because I have friends who hit the ball a long way just like yourself, so sorry if you took it that way, all I was looking for was seeing your swing. I apologize again for looking at the comments wrong and having a rant. You can still come to CT  and the round is on me lol

I understand where you are coming from. I'll leave my post up and unedited just so people can see how quickly someone can become an idiot to others by not reading posts correctly or who wrote them. To the mods and other members sorry for getting this thread off topic and I will not post on this topic anymore. Best of luck with everyone's 913 I sure love mine.

I had previously posted that the D+ X wasn't working for me (it's in the BST now)... I've played a 910 D3 with a Speeder 7.2 for the last year or so. Today I put the Speeder in the 913 and couldn't be happier. I can honestly say it was my best day off the tee box I've had in a long time. Longer than the 910 for sure (with the exact same shaft), nice work Titleist!

What were the difference for you between the D+72 and the 7.2? Is it the regular 7.2 or the TS?

I don't know a lot about Diamana shafts.... I have the 7.2 VC ( dark purple color), I believe it's a little softer in the tip then the white tour spec(someone please correct me if I'm wrong). I think I'm just use to the feel and kick of the VC. I would however, like to try out the Tour Spec, I've heard great things.

Ordered mine from my club pro on 11/21, 913 D3 9.5 D+ stiff.  Just arrived at the club today.  Obviously I don't have any free time for a week or so

It was the Tour Spec. For me it drop the spin by several hundred RPMs compared to the D+.  Sorry I don't have the exact numbers with me but I believe the spin wih TS was around 2300. I've always struggled to keep spin under 3000 with any head/shaft combo so that is a great number for me.

The TS also tightened up the dispersion for me. I've played the WB for a few years but never could get along with the soft butt. The D+ feels a lot better to me than the WB but the TS had a stout feeling throughout while still being smooth.

[station2station]

How is everyone spinning these tip stiff shafts in these low spin heads so much? Steep angle of attack?

[canegolfer]

Hi guys- I got mine two weeks ago 9.5 D2 head with GD BB stiff shaft. Also had a Fubuki Alpha shaft (stiff0 from my 910 and a GD -AD-DI 6 shaft stiff. The combo of AD-DI 6 and (13 d2 9.5 head works best for me. I used the Fubuki alpha in the 910 but did not get better reulst the the AD-Di 6 in the 913. 913 head lines up better visually and launches slightly lower with less spin. The BB shaft was lower launch. The Ad-Di 6 stiff with the 913 head added ten plus yards and more important improved accuracy. I am 60 yrs old and play to a 1 Hdcp. swing speed 96-100 .
