Yeah, I don't know why I hit it better. It feels like it is a hotter face than both the R11 and R11S. Other than increased adjustability options and the graphics on the crown, I'm not sure if they made any changes. A guy working in the golf shop said he did not like the R11 series but was playing the R1 as well. I kinda like the crown, its drawn some criticism but I think it's pretty cool.

You can buy the Krank rage in components as well if you like to do your own club work, I just don't have the money right now to purchase one, the head itself cost around 299.

Being a big tall lefty has its disadvantages, and driver hitting is one of them, although recently it has gotten much better, when I go looking to hit drivers some places have a few drivers, and ones that have a selection usually only have them in R flex, and they only have a few of the major brands. It takes a while to really hit all of them to get a feel for which ones i like best, I went to a local demo days last year and got to hit Tour edge exotics avail. Only in 10.5. Adams speed line did not like it at all.
And then the Titleist 910 D3, which I really liked it had great sound and feel, the fitter was very helpful to try to find an appropriate shaft head combo, but didn't have the right setup that he would have liked to have me try. So when I look for a new driver probably next season, I will look into the 13 year model callaway razr xtreme, and the titelist 913d3. If I shop next year for the 13 year model I an usually find a really good used for abut 199, or might even find brand new for around 250. Not sure since I always replace the shaft.

I'm a Titleist guy when it comes to drivers. I've played the 910 D3 for the last two years. I love it. I tried the 913 D3 just for s**ts and giggles. I ended up taking it home. I have the Aldila RIP Alpha in the 910. I went with the Phenom in the 913. It felt great, but we will see if I like it as well as the Alpha.

I put the Alpha in my 913D3 and it's a great combo for me!

I don't think anyone makes a better looking club the Titleist, just classy. Unfortunately, it didn't perform for myself like the R1 did.

I'm on the same page with you. I am currently gaming RAZR FIT with Speeder VC 6.1 but something triggered me to look for the "NEW" club. When I went to local shops and tried every clubs you can imagine over last month, I came to a conclusion as follows.

RAZR FIT XTREME = R1 > RBZ RCTBLZ stage 2 = Cleveland XL Custom > AMP CELL = AMP CELL PRO> PING i20 = PING G25 > 913D3 > 913D2 > Nike COVERT

Just to be fair, this is my PERSONAL experience. Don't want to down-talk one to the other but as you can probably see I was very surprised by TM's performance (I am NOT a TM guy at all). I was also surprised by poor performance of 913 where I had great experience with 910D2.

Callaway and Cleveland performed well due to their great available-shaft selection (I especially like Black Tie).
However even with made-for shaft on TM drivers, I was very very impressed with their overall performance. Regular R1 with TP shaft (extra $100 upgrade) was an amazing experience.

But at the end, I decided to stay with my current driver yet changed wood and hybrid. blah blah blah


sorry for mumbling on your thread. I just wanted to share my thoughts and experience.~
