Definitely get the Aldila RIP 60g stiff. I have it on my 910D3 and i hit it great. I've added 15 yards by switching. Its $300 for a RIP shaft separate and Titleist is offering it as a standard shaft which is AMAZING!!!

Hello,

I'm looking at the same set up. What is your swing speed?

Thx,

Tony

Here is my take on the RIP Shaft.  I currently have the 910 D3 with the 60 RIP in stiff and I do not care for the feel of this shaft.  To me, it is not very consistent and has zero feel.  The feel to me is very dead and kinda boardy.  The spin rate is ok and the launch is ok but I just hate the feel.

I just ordered and hopefully it will come in this week or early next week the Oban Devolution 6 in stiff flex.  I am hoping that this shaft will perform like my Rombax W 6W06 shaft I play in my other driver.  I love the look, feel and adjustability of the 910 D3 head so hopefully this shaft is the correct one and plays like my Rombax.  I tried to order the Rombax but it is an older shaft and Titleist did not test it and therefore does not carry it for the 910's.

I've had a different experience with the Aldila RIP 60 stiff. I love the feel of the shaft, to me it's very smooth and I can absolutely control my shots. I have not experienced a boardy feel as you mentioned, I did play a Graffaloy Pro Launch Red shaft in my 909 D3 and that shaft was definitely boardy to me. My SS is 102 to 105 not sure what your swing speed is but again I really like the Aldila RIP.

Had a chance to demo the 910 D2 with the Aldila RIP 60 stiff over the T-day holiday. Hit it on the range and played it for 18 holes. I liked the trajectory of my ball flight (low and boring). I liked the feel of the club head however the shaft felt a bit whippy for me. I currently play a R9 460 with a voodoo vns6 stiff. The tip of the RIP didn't feel as stiff as the voodoo so I didn't feel like I could swing hard down the line without occasionally hooking it. I did not adjust the clubhead!

I have the 910 D2 9.5, with the RIP 60 stiff.  I tend to hit the ball with a big draw, some times a hook that I am trying to get rid of.  I have my 910 with a D4 setting now and with 11 degrees of loft and the flatter lie I am actually hitting the ball much straighter and longer with an occasional fade.  I love the shaft and the low torque.  Feels amazing to me, but that is why they have choices, we are all different.  Good luck finding your match. 

Just got my new 910 D2 driver a couple of weeks ago with RIP shaft.  For me this shaft being a little lighter in weight has help me pick up a small amount of club head speed.  I am actually hitting this driver with the RIP shaft about 12- 15 yards further than my 909 D2.  Also have gained a better ball trajectory.

I have the exact same set up in my 905T - Graffaloy Blue s flex. It's tipped and perfect for how I swing. 

 I was told by the Titleist rep out at the course that the RIP 70 would match up with my current set up nicely. Will get fitted when the weather gets a bit warmer.

what swing speed are you guys at?

i was at 108-110mph

I also love the graf bluestiff in my 983k. 8.5

Stupidly ordered off ebay a 70x rip to put in my 909d3 8.5 and its way too stiff for me.

My lesson learnt is to get fitted which i will be doing in jan/feb, and stop wasting cash on shafts that i dont know if they'll fit without going on the launch monitor

I just purchased the 910D3 w/ the Aldila RIP60S D2 setting. I love the feel. I don't have to swing as hard to get my swing speed up to 110mph. Great combination between the Titleist head and the RIP shaft. The feeling is fantabulous! I've been playing the Cobra S2 w/ the Fujikura shaft. Great club but doeasn't come close to the 910D3. Titleist has many stock shaft options. Try all of them and allow yourself a couple of hours to determine which one is best for you.

I got the 910D2 with a RIP, I got the x Stiff 60.  Great shaft, very accurate for me. 

I just got the 910 D3 8.5 with the RIP 70 stiff shaft. Absolutely love the set up. My carry increased 15 yards and spin rate dropped a touch. I have only been able to hit the driver in a dome, but I love the feel, look and sound of the driver. Can't wait for Spring!

I test hit the 910 D3 with the RIP 60 shaft and it was nice.  That shaft was the best of the ones I hit, and it felt best on all types of hits, off center and flush.  Good luck, hope you find one that works for you. 

I went with the RIP 65 Stiff just because I needed a little heavier shaft to help ball flight but the Aldila RIP is the way to go no matter the weight!

what does the RIP claim it will do?  lower sidespin or backspin?  why do people pick up 15 yds.?  I like the way it looks out of all the stock shafts the 910offers .... not that....that means anything!  I have the voodoo in the 909D2 and i like the feel are they similar?

Chris

I have it and its good, not great. The feel isnt as soft as I would like. I also have a project X and its a little more flexible and better feel. THe Adila is easier to control but I get 10 more yads out of the X

I only played about 9 holes with my new 910 D2 10.5 deg RIP 60 set on C-1 (I'm a hooker), liked the feel, trajectory, distance. Did'nt feel too boardy to me.  Maybe a hair light in weight.  (which with the release of the weight kit you could change SW and feel).

Good luck

i am from Hobart Tasmania and i play titleist clubs and i have just been fitted out with the 910 driver RIP 70 and it is out of this world.

I have the new 910D3 driver with the Aldila RIP 60 stiff and I absolutely love the shaft it has great feel and distance just ind that it has a stiff tip and medium to high kick point so if you're a low ball hitter this shaft may not work for you.

Agree with Wellhit - the RIP 60 felt a little to light and like I was going to hook it off the planet.  Will be trying the RIP 70 - a little heavier and lower torque.  Cheers!

I definitely agree with the RIP 60's feeling too light...I even tried the RIP 70 but I don't think that Aldila is up there with the Project X shafts. I went to get fitted for a D2 and I was swinging around 110 with 280 carry with the Project X shaft. Great feedback and VERY stable compared to the RIP shafts. You don't get the flexy feel with the Project X, just a very stable impact with a good flex at the top of the swing. I highly recommend it.

PS. It's a beauty to look at too...

I was fitted for the 910 at TPI and hit several shafts.  However, the fitters there are so good they zero you in pretty quickly.  I narrowed it down to the Rip the the kali'i (stiff).  Both gave me good launch monitor results but the kali'i felt smooth like butter and the RIP didn't give me the feedback I wanted.  Last year I was a big alidlla fan and didn't care for what diamana was producing. This year, the tables have turned for me.  I recommend the kali'i over the RIP. 

I know others like the RIP and I see some on this thread who do.  It is a great shaft.  I think if you can hit the two shafts together you will definitly feel the difference and know which one you like.

I still have my Graffy Blue 905R as well!  The Rip 60 in X or the 70 in Stiff will be pretty close to what you are looking for.  But...there's no way to tell until you go through a fitting.  The 910 heads are nothing like we have ever seen and have a major influence on feel perception. 

Advanced fitters will have the RIPs and Obans for you to try.

I just bought a 8.5deg 910D2 set to neutral with a RIP 60 stiff.  My swing speed is around 115mph, and my optimum ball flight tends to be on the higher side.  The RIP 60 is very close in feel to my old 909D2 that had a Matrix Ozik X-Con 6 stiff.  The RIP 60 has given me between 10-15 yds additional carry.  It is not "boardy" or "stiff" as some of the replies state.  I think it has a very smooth buttery feel.  My driver tendency is to hit straight or a slight slight draw.  I can almost completely eliminate the right side of the golf course because hitting a fade is very difficult for me.  I've had 4 range sessions and 3 rounds with this new driver and I have yet to hit the dreaded hard hook.  I can swing this club very hard with great confidence.  I would recommend testing/buying  the RIP 60 to anyone that swings with a hard smooth tempo and is looking to achieve an average to above average ball flight.  It is an unbelievable "standard shaft" option that Titleist offers.  Keep up the great work Titleist!!!!! It's always fun knocking it past those white-headed drivers!!!!!

I had a 910 D2 w/ Kaili stiff and the ball flight was too high and hits felt really soft with no acceleration. I changed to the Aldila rip stiff and was really impressed with the feel and ball flight.
