Titleist 913 Driver Review: Is it a better driver?
From RubixGolf:
Normally when manufacturers make all of these claims and all of this hype it ends up leaving the customer with a little bit of disappointment after they try the new product. I will be first to tell you that is not the case with the 913 driver. Sure its look is very similar to the 910 as is the shape, but not the performance. What you get with this new 913 is incredible. They are keeping the two versions 913 D2 460cc driver and 913 D3 445cc driver. There is little discrepancy between the two as far as numbers go on the launch monitor. Most will find that the D2 spins just a touch more than the D3 and launches slightly higher. Its nice when a company recognizes what it does best, that is where Titleist has kept its heritage in this club. Im sure you all remember the 975D and the 975J. Were they the longest of the drivers out there? No, they were not. Were the best feeling and most solid drivers out there? Yes, they were. Now you can answer yes to both of those questions with the new and improved 913 driver. No compromise on feel and sound and now you get added yardage thanks to a faster titanium face. If you are searching for a new driver this season the 913 should definitely be on your hit list.
From GOLF Magazine:
Speed. You’ll hear the “speed” theme from all the big club companies in the coming months. that’s because today’s design game is all about boosting ball speed across the clubface to help you hit it farther and with more control. titleist’s fully loaded, adjustable 913 series drivers, for instance, have a “faster” forged titanium face than its 910 drivers—the thinner, “variable taper” face allows the perimeter to flex more (like a trampoline) for increased ball speeds. Company testing reveals that off-center hits come off the face 1 to 2 mph faster, which equates to 4 to 6 yards more length. further testing indicates that the face delivers 99 percent of maximum ball speed across an 11 percent larger area than 910 drivers. In addition, the 913 drivers are designed to generate spin numbers that are more similar to one another than their predecessors were. that’s a significant change because many high-swing-speed players wouldn’t consider the 910 D2 because it produced too much spin. With the 913 series, fittings likely will focus more on your preferred head shape and how much forgiveness/workability you want. specifically, the more rounded 913 D2 offers additional forgiveness with slightly more draw bias (2 to 3 yards), while the pear-shaped 913 D3 is more workable with no draw bias. -- Rob Sauerhaft
From GOLF.com:
(June 25, 2012)BETHESDA, Md. -- The Titleist 913D2 and 913D3 drivers won't be available to the public until November, but both clubs were on the driving range at Congressional Country Club on Monday. As players arrived at the course, site of this week's AT&T National, Titleist's tour staffers were waiting with launch monitors ready and plenty of clubs waiting to be tried, tested and put into play.The 913 drivers are not radical departures from the clubs they will replace (the 910D2 and 910D3); the new model retains its predecessors' glossy black crown, traditional pear shape and simple alignment marks. The 913 driver also features the same SureFit Tour adjustable hosel system that debuted in the 910 drivers, which allows you to change both the loft and the lie angle
