Titleist 905 S and T info

[kwantfm]

Okay guys,

Sounds like these are great for 400 cc drivers. For those who have hit both can you please compare performance, spin, feel and launch with the 510 TP?

Thanks,
T

Terrence,

I have played many 905Ts and many 905s and a few 510 TPs and I beleieve that the 905s is very similar to the 510 TO in terms of shape, trajectory and spin. The 905T is a great driver more forgiving than the 905S but a ton more spin - not as penetrating flight as the 905S.

The way I see these drivers is as follows:

905S is the equivalent of a blade iron
905T is the equivalent of a cavity back iron

I find the 905s also easier to shape than the 905T.

Cheers

great analogy there...

I've hit both - the T defn felt easier off the face (softer?) then the S did...
I didn't care too much about the S...would have had the T in the bag if I had bought the right shaft/loft combo straight off...

Thanks for the responses guys... these drivers seem to be going for a song now.

Bloody Ho :p

All I want are options... preferrably cheap options!

i have a couple of T's kwantfm

Moe, I'm probably looking more at the S... will take a look at the club pro shop on the w/e.

Go the S!!!

I have only hit one T, but several S's. As usual the shaft seems to be critical. If you have a shaft that works for you, then I'd say the S will be an honest performer. The T is a solid club too, and probably a touch easier to use. I get decent launch results with the S that I've got so no point changing for now...

It was a couple of years ago now that I tried Gaz's 510TP with Fuji Speeder shaft. That really opened my eyes to the importance of a good shaft. I reshafted the 975JVS I had at the time and it transformed the club. The club was totally transformed once I found a shaft that worked... I went on the launch monitor before and after the reshaft and the improvements was startling.

I hit both the T and the S at the range today. Nudgee's analog is about spot on. I actually like the way the T come off the face but the S for my money is the better driver. Pity neither of them can beat the FT-3 ;)

Pity neither of them can beat the FT-3 ;)

yeah, this week.... :smt002

No chance mate, FT-3 is as straight as anything I have hit and after todays range session it is certainly more forgiving. Never thought I would be blowing Callaway's trumpet but I am starting!!
