The Titleist 917 Driver And Fairway Wood (2018)

Stay up to date with the latest Titleist Metalwoods with the new TS Range.

Distance with Forgiveness, the standard for complete performance. The Titleist 917 Driver and Fairway Wood range from Titleist. Predecessor to the 915 range, Titleist have made some fundamental new changes, 5 years of research has lead to the SureFit CG weight channel design, incorporating this into the same two styles we love and know, D2 and D3 and the new F2 and F3 Fairway woods. Here is all the tech spec you need to know about, in the Titleist 917 Drivers and Fairway Woods.

Technology

SureFit CG – This allows the CG of the club, to be moved from the back heel position, into a forward toe position, through the new interchangeable weight system, which will lead to optimising spin and launch conditions for every player ability.

Radial Speed Face 2.0 – Made with an enhanced thinner face width perimeter, this allows the club to promote a greater off centre strike ball speed, to gain more overall distance across the club face.

Active Recoil Channel – A re-fined thickness through the club head channel, reduces spin and increases speed.

SureFit Hosel – The Classic SureFit Hosel is back in the 917 models, with 16 independent loft and lie settings, this will create a more consistent and optimised ball flight, through the precise fitting options, you have at your fingertips.
