    D4 maybe. I have the same shaft in 910 D2 and it comes in at D4.

    Dave,

    The red dot indicates a 9g bezel weight.  There are 5 bezel weight options to help adjust swing weight (4g-white, 7g-green, 9g-red, 11g-blue, 14g-black).

  4. Cameron;

     

    Both my new 913 D2, 9.5 and my 17F have red dots with std lenght shafts. By shortening them both by 1/2 inch will reduce swing weight. What new weight will need to be added to resotre original swing weight? Please indicate color amd weight.

     

    Thanks Jeff M

    Jeff,

    Both of those metal woods will need the 14g bezel weight (black dot).

    Cameron,

    Does the shaft brand make a difference? I have the 913D2 with the Bassara 50 Hi regular flex, with the red dot weight. I want to have it cut down one inch. Would the black dot weight be the right one for me to install to keep a similar swing weight?

    Randy,

     The black dot (14g) bezel weight won't get it back to a standard swing weight, but will be your closest option.

  8. Cameron, could you tell me the swing weight for my driver (913 10.5* with the Graphic Design Tour AD-DI 5r2 Reg flex). Also If I butt cut the shaft 1" and make it 44", what weight screw will get it back to the proper swing weight? Thanks, John

    John,

    Swing weight will be D3 at 45".  If you cut it down to 44", the swing weight will be D0 with the 14g bezel weight (heaviest).

  10. Cameron, thanks for the info but do you think that is too much, and if I cut only 1/2" will that be better and what will that make the swingweight? What would happen if I put on a lite weight grip like the GP Tour 25, how will that change the swingweight? I just don't want to change it that much cause I am a real feel player. How does choking down of the driver effect the weight? Thanks, John

    John,

    Cutting it down 1/2" will bring the swing weight to D3 with the 14g bezel weight.  If you use a lighter grip, you could certainly make up most of the weight (+2 points) that you lose when cutting down an inch.  Coking up on the club will make the club feel lighter, similar to how different (lighter) swing weights feel.

  12. Cameron;
     
    thanks for responding.
     
    Is the shaft instalation on a std lenght club vs. a club ordered 1/2" short instaled the same way (or is the tip cut differently prior) ??

    Jeff,

    They are tipped the same and butt cut for length.

  14. Cameron;

     

    Can you explain 913d, F & hb face angle (open, neutral, or closed) in the A-1 setting and what happens to it as you move left and right on the fitting chart?? I am interested in decreasing lie angle and wanted to understand what happens to face angle.

     

    Thanks

    Jeff, 

    In A-1, for all Titleist metal woods, the face angle is .5* open.  When you adjust the lie angle upright or flat (move left or right on the Surefit Performance Guide) the face angle does not change.  We have found from our testing that when you adjust the lie angle, you will begin to see a change in curvature of the ball flight.  For example, setting the driver in a flat setting will promote more of a fade.  The only time that you effectively change the face angle is when you add or decrease loft.

    Let me know if you have any other questions on this topic.

  16. Cameron,

    Going to the B1 setting (Flat) worked great in my FW & HB. When i went to  B1 in my driver i saw the fade but liked the added distnce and the way the club addressed the ball. If i go to the C4 (flat with more loft) will that close the face (and how much) and counteract the fade? I didn't think of it at the range and when thinking of your response later iwanted to ask ??

     

    Thanks Jeff M.

  17. Cameron,

     

    Did you see my last question above. I am anxious to hear from you.

     

    thanks

    Jeff,

    That setting will still promote a higher trajectory and more of a fade, since the loft is achieved when the face is squared at impact.  The effective face angle in the C-4 setting is .5* closed.

  19. Cameron; Thanks for that info, it was just what i was looking to know.

    Hi Cameron,

    Driver No. 1 is a stock Titleist 910 D2 (10.5) with a 72 gram shaft.

    Driver No. 2 is a stock Titleist 910 D2 (10.5) with a 62 gram shaft.

    Assume that the weights of all components of both clubs are perfectly at target specs.

    If you put the head from Driver No. 2 on the 72 gram shaft,  what would the swing weight of that club be?  How much would you  have to butt trim the shaft in order to bring it down to the standard OEM swing weight?

    Just curious.  Thanks.

    Duane,

    Both drivers should come standard with a 7g bezel weight in the head.  The driver with the 72g shaft will swing weight out at D4 and the driver with the 62g shaft will swing weight out to D3.  I wouldn't necessarily recommend changing the length of the shaft to reduce the swing weight, since it is only one point and the length difference could have a negative impact on your consistency.  If length was something that you really wanted to change, then taking just under a 1/4" an inch off the shaft would bring you back to a the D3 swing wight.

  22. If a Titleist 913D2 Driver with a Bassara W50 regular flex shaft is cut down to 44 inches, how much will that effect swing weight/total of the club with a Golf Pride 50gm CP2 grip installed on it? Should a heavier head weight need to be added to this club to get to original swing weight? If so, how much additional weight? What would be the ideal swing weight/total weight for a senior player with a 80-85 mph swing speed with a moderate tempo?
