    I'm looking for feedback regarding the 913H vs. 915H (21 + 24 degree).

    I have the opportunity to pick up a couple leftover 913's from our club house or wait for the new 915's. Anybody hit both models? Any feedback would be helpful. Thanks in advance.

    Regards,

    Bill

    I have both in my bag. The 915 has a little more POP and distance. I bought the 18*. The first day I hit it on the course it went it 215 yards. I'm 68 years old and very proud of that distance.

    (IF) All else is equal and the money is important, the 913s will be fine as a direct 4/3 iron replacements - as they were last summer. Big assumption - the rack shaft fits your swing. If you can look at both in a fitting you can decide if the performance difference is important for the upcharge.

    Don,

    Thanks for the feedback. I was convinced the 913s would do the job however I continue to hear the 915s are a big improvement. I've hit my pro's 913s and loved them, good news is he just got the 915 demos. I think I'll be hitting them this weekend. Then I'll look at the money side of it.

    Bill, Just a quick note, be careful when you are choosing lofts if you go with the 915. I had to go up in loft to keep my distance the same as the 915 did prove to be longer. I felt like the added height and loft was a benefit to be able to hit the same distance making the change worthwhile. Good luck! Addam

    My concern is the 19* 3H vs. the new 21* 3H. I really like my 913H which I have set at 19.75*. Would it make sense to switch to a 21* and deloft it to 20.25? Would I get the same distance with the same contact, or should I expect more or less length? My 913H is one of my favorite clubs in the bag. Normally, I go by the mantra "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." But, I have heard so much positive buzz about the new 915 hybrids that I really want to try one out. Has anyone else switched from the 913H 19*/3H  to 915H 21*/3H? If so, what have you noticed concerning the distance between the two. The other consideration is to go with the new 18*/2H offering, however, my concern is that I will need more swing speed to take full advantage of the lower loft. My driver SS is 92-94, and I get nice distance out of my present 913H. I would hate to switch to an 18 degree for more distance and find out I can't generate enough speed. That's why I switched from a 15* 3W to a 16.5* 4W a few years ago. Any thoughts?

    One key difference is the 21 at 20.25 will be a relative more open club face than the 19 at 19.75. You might find it harder to square. I have a 21F 910 and demoed a 21H 915, and it is (now) as long as the 7W but much easier to hit. I have 24/27H 913's. I can't say the 21 is easier to hit than the 913s, but I've never hit a hybrid as far as the 7W - until now. For the ease of hitting, the 910F is now broken. I've tried several 19H's in the past, and I just don't do better than with a FW. You may have the same problem with the 2H. Even if the 20/20.25 is as long as the 19/19.75, what would you gain, unless the dispersion is tighter?

    If you are generating enough club head speed with your current hybrids you will be fine with the 915s.  The secret to hitting great hybrids is smooth swing.  Cannot over power a hybrid.  The 18* has a lot of pop to it and I chose the Aldila Rogue Black 85 stiff shaft.  It is a strong club, but please see a fitter.  At 68 and club head speed of 93 I carry three hybrids. Titleist, of course.

    As someone who has both the 913's and 915's, I think the 915's are a 100% improvement from the 913's.  I can't miss the 915 if I try.  The comparison truly is a knife on warm butter.  The turf interaction is amazing and the trajectory is piercing.  In my opinion, if you have the $$, make the switch.  You will be glad you did.

    Greg,

    Thanks for the feedback! A few of my golf buddies shared the same opinion. I'm definitely leaning toward picking up the 915's!
