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).

Great to see Titleist coming out with a newer, more, modern design. Titleist has always been a bechmark for other to follow and has been the leader, but with todays technology and computer wizards, sometimes it's good to follow up on what's new all around the golf world and not stay so fine lined in the traditional designs. I'll be anxious to try them out.

Great looking Fairway and Hybrids, wonder how they play for the average weekend golfer, or are these geared to the Pro's and Low Handiappers only.

They look like a work in progress. Do not like the screw in the bottom.
Threads could get crossed, dirty or gaull. Just a fad that will pass.

Does this mean the old epoxying a club head to the shaft is finally a thing of the past?
JET wrote on August 30, 2010 at 11:28PM
The club looks great, Im going away from my 3 wood and thinking about a hybrid. You guys looking for some honest feedback from an amateur with a 5 handicap?? Live on a golf coarse, could play 10 round in 2-3 weeks. Let me know if you want a tester
JET wrote on August 30, 2010 at 11:33PM
they look great. saw a number of them being delivered to the pros at the Barclays this past week. Love the way they look.

Black head looks awesome but , I wonder how well they wear from scratches and marks from hitting balls.
JET wrote on August 30, 2010 at 11:38PM
I also would love to be a tester for you I play with a big group of guys and it would be fun to have them all over me
