Which one to get? Hmmm ... I have been a trusted Titleist loyalist all my life. But I went into Golfsmith the other day to hit the 915 and just for S*&*s and giggles, I hit the TM R15 ... both at the normal setting. And I was amazed! Wow ... Boom ... Is all I can say! The ball really exploded off the face of the R15! Ball speed was higher (138 vs 143) ... smash factor higher ... spin rate lower and a nice boring trajectory. Maybe I was warmed up after hitting the 915 for about 30 minutes, but the first swing with the TM went 288 yards! I rarely hit it that far anymore ... I am older and the bones crack a bit! I consistently hit it over 275-280. Really not that much further than the 915 but the overall numbers were better all around. I almost walked out with it that night ... but I just couldn't go against Titleist for some reason.
My question is ... has anyone hit these two and compared them? If so, did you get the same impression that I did? Are you a definite loyalist to a certain company? If so, which one and why?
To be continued ... I will be getting a raise next month and my first purchase will be one or the other. I will let you know which one I decide on.
I would like to see the ball flight outside under normal conditions and not in a simulator though.
Any thoughts??
