I searched but couldn't find an actual review thread for the 816 H1/H2 if I missed it, mods feel free to merge!!
Looks: For the H1
I'm not "inlove" so to speak with the grey colored crown and wish it was black, but it sets up fine to the ball with the black face. The H1 in person to my eye has a bit of a "spoon" look to it at address, it's not totally obvious, but to my eye it's there. It has a more rounded look to it than some of the other current hybrids on the market, but overall it has the looks of what you'd expect of a hybrid.
Sound/Feel: As most believe, myself included for golf sound and feel go hand in hand. This club has a very nice "thud" or "thwack" when caught in the center. I've noticed it has a bit more of a metallic sound when struck off towards the toe. This club provides instant feed back on where on the face it was struck without being that penal. When struck in the center it feels extremely solid and pretty much what you'd expect from any club struck in the center of the face.
Performance: This is where this club absolutely shines. I'm not sure I've ever swung an easier club to hit. I originally tested one at a Titleist demo day at my home course when I was looking at a different option other than the 712u. From the first ball I hit with it I knew I was going to own one. It provides a fantastic ball flight when struck properly and one you'd expect from a hybrid. I have no issues launching it high from just about any lie. Something I've had to get used to with this club is the straighter ball flight. As of late I've been playing a stock draw as my normal shot shape but with the club it just seems to fly high and straight on my target line without turning over to my actual target. I've noticed on the range that when struck on the toe the ball just seems to climb high and fall left of my target. Struck on the heel and the same only falling right of my target. When struck in the center it just flies high and dead straight.
Any questions let me know I'll do my best to answer thoroughly! If anyone else is swing these feel free to add your thoughts!!
