The Titleist 910 prototype fairway metals and hybrids made their PGA Tour debut last week at The Barclays, signaling the official start of the seeding and performance-validating process for the 910H and 910F models.Following the lines of the new Titleist 910 prototype driver, the family of 910 fairway metals and hybrids features the same innovative technology including the SureFit Tour Hosel, which allows for precision fitting that was previously only found on Tour Vans.
The introduction of the new 910 prototype fairway metals and hybrids on the PGA Tour is a critical step in the process, as all high performance Titleist-branded golf clubs must be performance-validated by the world's most discerning and influential golfers before being released to the marketplace. Titleist Brand Ambassadors across all worldwide professional tours are instrumental in the performance validation process and many of the pros were anxious to put the new fairway metals and hybrids into play. Titleist Brand Ambassador Jimmy Walker is one player who couldn't wait for the 910 fairway metals and hybrids. Having gamed his Titleist 910D3 9.5 prototype driver for several weeks now, Walker immediately put a 910F 13.5 and a 910H 18.0 in his bag after arriving at The Barclays.
On Saturday, Rickie Fowler used his new 910F 13.5 fairway metal to hit a 274-yard second shot at the 594-yard, par-5 17th hole to 5 feet. Fowler sank the putt, recording one of only three eagles made during the week at No. 17.
Seven other Titleist Brand Ambassadors put the 910 fairway metals and hybrids in their bags this week: Adam Scott (910F 15.0), Jason Dufner (910F 15.0), Bill Haas (910F 13.5), Marc Leishman (910F 13.5), Troy Matteson (910F 13.5), Michael Sim (910F 13.5, 910H 18.0), D.J. Trahan (910F 17.0) and Nick Watney (910F 15.0).

Is the fairway wood a lower profile? That would help off tight fairways.

It will be nice to be the first in Cancun to have one of these great6 metal woods

I'd like to be the first one to try a left-handed model whenever they come out.

Looks great - I have 18 loft and would like to have the 15 loft and replace the 3 wood I some times hit!!!
Okay, these look really sweet. I am playing Titleist AP1 irons and it's a real love affair. Where and when can I get the 910F's? With my 5 hole-in-ones with Titleist irons and ProV1x balls (registered with you) . . . look out greens, here I come!
Are there drivers available that have completely flat sweet spots and also not "off set" from the shaft?

I was really impressed with that shot Rickie Fowler made to the 17th green with his new 910F 13.5 fairway metal. I'm ready to test one...just send it on to me. Thanks, Roger B.

love the new look but not a fan of this "adjustability" concept.... why not keep it simple and clean like preior models, leave the adjustable clubs to tm where they come out with a new line of clubs every 6 months.

WOW. Can't wiat to put the driver and 3 wood in my bag. I know I can hit it because it is a Titleist. I'll be looking for them.

I can't wait to get a set of the new hybrids and fill my bag with titleist gear. Looks great and of course they are used well by some awesome players on the PGA tour. Well done Titleist.

looks clean and not bad looking, hope it will do the job?
I hope these FW Woods are available with a premium lighter weight shaft in the 65 gram range.
Doug H wrote on August 30, 2010 at 10:51PM
Looks just as revolutionary as the 983.....
When do we get to hit it?
JET wrote on August 30, 2010 at 10:51PM
Just as you expect from titleist, perfection in looks and performance. I can't wait!

These look great. I do have one question. Won't the black faces become really scratched after a while?
Steve N wrote on August 30, 2010 at 10:53PM
Wow, I would love to try these out. The picture alone convinces me I could save strokes!
JET wrote on August 30, 2010 at 10:58PM
