On 2003-09-24, Tom rated this Titleist 985K a 5...(2376)



Purchase: I purchased my driver in a pro shop in Phoenix, AZ for $385.00, upgrading from a 975J. After going through many drivers (and many dollars) I finally did some research and determined that 80-90 MPH swings were not condusive to 8.5 or 9.5 degree drivers. Titleist recommends a driver of 11.5 to 12 degrees in loft for individuals with my swing speed and characteristics. Since Titleist has long been my driver of choice because of their quality and appearance this driver has resulted in a perfect match.
Pros: I like the look of the driver and the way it sets up. The 11.5 degree driver seems to be just what I needed to keep me in the fairway. In addition, while making no exagerrated claims of yardage imnprovement, I have experienced the occasional 5-20 yards on well stuck drives. The most significant improvement is in carry and accuracy. As they say, the ball goes further in the air than it does rolling through the grass.
Cons: Actually, there are really no significant dislikes with the driver. The only complaint I would have would be with the grip. Titleist proprietary grips are hard on my hands. To be fair, it could be that I am gripping the club improperly, however, I prefer the Wynn grip.
Quality: The construction of the driver is top-of-the-line in every way, from the top of the grip to the headcover. Titleist has long proven to be outstanding club makers and this driver is no exception.

Review Summary: Drivers are the one club that must impart a feeling of confidence in the user. No amount of advertising of hype will make for better performance if a person does not feel comfortable with his or her driver. For me, this club does it all. It looks good, feels good and performs as advertised.
