SPY VIP GolfSpy_X Posted May 26, 2010 SPY VIP Share Posted May 26, 2010 The images of the 910 Driver popped up just about everywhere on the web including on MGS but it looks like Titleist was not too keen on the idea of the pics showing uo so far ahead of its most likely release date. Here is a statement from a Titleist spokesman. Titleist spokesman Joe Gomes: "An important part of our go-to-market blueprint calls for getting performance validation from the world's best players before we launch any new product. We asked the USGA to remove the new 910 drivers from the conforming list until we begin the seeding process, first on the PGA Tour, followed by the remaining worldwide professional tours. That should take place by the end of next month. The 910 driver will be re-listed at that time." What are your thoughts? #TruthDigest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxio Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 I cannot believe they didn't think pics on the USGA site would not leak out even without "tour validation". I think they don't want people to stop buying their current line.... lesson next time only have the USGA test them after you have sold enough of your current line.

JohnBarry Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 They have to sell their inventory before bringing something out that causes dead stock and means a sell off at a discounted price.

meyer7001 Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 If they didn't want them to show up on the list then why not tell them in the first place? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 If they didn't want them to show up on the list then why not tell them in the first place? Because even though they aren't on the market yet, and won't be for a while. Some tour pro's use them on tour, and all drivers on tour have to be on the conforming list to be legal for use. I have a revolving WITB policy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
