Titleist drivers tend to have a following which often is comprised of better players with lower handicaps. Back in the day, if you were playing Titleist golf clubs, you probably knew what you were doing. With the advent of larger, more forgiving heads, many companies had offerings that were appropriate for a larger segment of golfers.
The Titleist 909 D3 Driver is aimed at the low handicapper who wants to control ball flight, accuracy and workability whilst enjoying unparalled sound and feel. The 909 D3 driver has a 440CC sized, titanium clubhead in a classic pear shape incorporating a deep clubface. The clubface insert has been designed to maximise the energy transfer across the clubface and rear sole ridges combine with two distinctive trapezoid shapes across the centre of the club to reduce vibration and create a fantastic impact sound. The Titleist 909 D3 Driver signals Titleist's first use of a titanium Blind Bore hosel that secures the shaft of the club within the neck and offers both stability and flexibility across the whole range of 909 D3 shaft options. A swingweight screw in the rear of the 909 D3 sole allows for any weight differences when different shafts are custom fitted. The 909 D3 driver offers the lower handicapper a perfectly fitted driver that offers complete control from the tee.
In short, the classic Titleist pear shape stays intact, and a deeper face of the Titleist 909 D3 Driver gives the better player very attractive golf clubs to look at before the ball is hit. The deeper face will also allow for more choices in shot shaping, especially when hitting a fade or a lower shot into the wind.
