I haven't posted in quite a long time but i like listening to the golf stories. Good job on getting the club, Tom. This made me think about a friend of mine who got an R11s just recently. He was fitted for it, the pro adjusted it to the point of getting "perfect" numbers. My buddy agreed to get the club and the pro (retail shop) said they would order it and it would be in in a couple of weeks. I don't get it, the R11s is supposedly one of the most adjustable drivers out there. Why does it have to be ordered???? I played with the guy yesterday and I love outdriving him because he gets so pissed. On one particular hole he hit a really good one so I knew this was my chance. I hit my 12 yr old Raven 320cc with a PF65 shaft as well as i can. Crap - i was just 10 yds behind him! I'm considering the Titleist 910D2 as my first driver purchase in a quite a while.
