Traded my RBZ 3 Wood I won here Sunday, after 2 rounds, I just could not hit it off the deck with such a huge face. I decided, after hitting a bunch of used clubs to go with the Titleist 909 F2, I just crushed that club every single time. 1 day at the range and I am in love for sure!!

I agree the face is huge on the standard RBZ. The tour version is more compact and nicer IMO. I hit the Titleist 910H and it was a beast, so I can imagine the 909F is similar. Congrats on the new stick!

Always had either TM or Titleist fairways can't go wrong with either just down to personal fit, but the club still looks sweet, enjoy

The RBZ, for me, sat up too closed. I could kill it, but everything was left because of how closed it was. I ended up with an R11S 3 wood and it's much more comfortable to the eye. Maybe they'll release the RBZ next with an FCT hosel.

Really? The tour version definitely looks open to me, though I will admit being able to open the face of the R11s is really nice.

The RBZ sets up a hair closed, the tour is right at square(just a hair open). I have my R11S set to the most open setting (lower) with the ASP set to open as well. It is more visually pleasing to my eye. Sure I could've used a clock ferrule and added some hotmelt to get the RBZ to set up more open, but without knowing exactly how the speed pocket works, from a functionality standpoint (don't know if it flexes both directions or just one), I was afraid I'd take away from the effectiveness of the speed pocket. I can get a tour issued one that's open like I like, but the price is too high right now.

barbajo  You'd think a fantasy team with Webb Simpson, Rory, Hunter, Graeme McDowell & Louis Ousthauizen would do some serious damage at the Player's. Well, they did, but not the kind of damage you want...
