Headed to Team Titleist Event...Any Questions


Golfspy_CG2

Recommended Posts

 

 

So on Wednesday I'm headed to the Team Titleist Invitational at TPC Sawgrass.  It will be 2.5 days of golf, getting to see and demo the entire 718 line, and getting to have a Q&A and discussions with several people from Titleist HQ.    I went last year to Pinehurst when the 917 lineup was introduced and it was a fantastic time, filled with lots of great information directly from the sources.

 

I'm really interested in hitting the new 718 lineup, probably focusing on the AP1 and AP3 but might also like to see what I can or can't do with one of those TMB's.

 

So if you have any questions about the new line or really anything Titliest related..(except for the K Sig-ProV battle) I'm sure with the lawsuits in place, that's a non starter of a topic.   But anything else let me know and i'll try and get the answer directly from them.

 

I'll be updating this thread along the way with pics over the 3 days,  so stay tuned!

I'd like to see what you think of the AVX balls and AD wedges. Those are some items on my radar.

I'm with you 1000% on that. I'm hoping they surprise us with some test, since they will be releasing them the following week.

 

I spoke to the Ball Fitting team that was here this weekend. They had played them and said it was very similar to the ProV in most areas. But softer off the clubface.

 

They do think the fact they are available in yellow will be a huge selling factor. It'll be Titleist first premium ball in yellow.

I have to admit. I'm more interested in them after watching Rick Shiels review on them. The video of them looks so much better than the 716. And he said, they are long long!!

Curious what you think of the AP3 irons and thier new wedges.

 

Also really looking forward to your overall experience. Maybe you will find some crazy dark horse we haven't thought would be that good but ends up being great.

Last year was a blast. I have a thread on here with some pics.

 

Yeah, maybe I'll be surprised and find out I'm able to hit the MB's like JT. Ha

 

I don't think there will be any new wedges until the spring. But if there is I'll definitely let it be known.

Sounds fun. Since you are hitting the new lineup, it will be interesting to hear how you think the ap3 fits in and who you think is the target golfer for them.

See if they will give you thoughts about the current Pres/CEO retiring, and if they expect to go in a slightly different direction under new leadership?

Will do.  They have a Q&A panel things set up one night, I suspect it might come up there, but if not I'll definitely ask them when I'm one on one.

As a lefty, I would be interested to know if they will offer all of their products designed for right handers consistently for us lefties.   To what extent are the retailers ordering left handed equipment versus right handed.   Just tell them that you have a couple of very good friends that are lefties.

A new lower compression premium urethane cover ball they are releasing in early October in 3 states, Florida, Arizona and California.

 

As usual MGS was all over the news when it was released.

Got started tonight with a Welcome Bag of Titleist Swag. They always do it right.

 

It was great to see Abby, Rick, Mike and Liz, they are great hosts who can't do enough for TT members.

 

Caught up with some good guys from last year's event.

 

All set for a round on the Dye Course tomorrow.

 

Then the demo of the 718 line. I'm definitely going to get some AP3 feedback for everyone.

 

 

 

 

 

View from the bar patio. Looks like a miniature island hole station across the way.

 

Nice hotel.
