Difference Between the Titleist 907D1 & 907D2

The 907D1 and 907D2 are both drivers released by the golf company Titleist in 2007. Both have titanium heads and a triangle shape. The head size is 460cc and both models originally cost $500. Titleist created the drivers to generate distance while giving more room on the club head for golfers to strike the ball solidly for accuracy.

  1. Measurements

    • Titleist made the 907D1 available with 7.5 degree, 8.5 degree, 9.5 degree and 10.5 degree club lofts. The 907D2 offered all of these choices as well, though you also had the option of an 11.5 degree loft model. Both were 45 inches long. The 907D1 had a lie of 59 degrees, while the 907D2 had a lie of 57 degrees.

    Intent

    • The manufacturer made both the 907D1 and 907D2 to increase the length of drives and work for players of all skill levels. The 907D1 had additional forgiveness, meaning that even if you didn't hit the ball dead center on the sweet spot of the head, it would still travel a good distance. The 907D2 came more for workability, or give you the ability to manipulate the ball's flight based on what direction you wanted it to go.

    Composition

    • Both drivers had a titanium body and head with an aluminum hosel. Both also came with an Adila VS Pronto 65 or Titleist Diamana Blue 65 shaft. Only the 907D2 model had a UST ProForce V2 75 shaft. Both clubs came with either ribbed or smooth grips of varying thickness depending on preferences. Golf Pride made the grips which also came in Jumbo models for those who prefer more grip area.

    Advantages

    • The 907 series clubs both offered golfers advantages in different areas. The 907D1 had more margin for error, while the 907D2 had greater overall ball speed. The 907D2 also provided more moment of inertia for a smoother transfer in your swing that allowed for more power through each shot. The 907D1 had a louder sound upon striking the ball than the 907D2.
