The Titleist 909 D3 Driver is a fairly recent addition to the market, and like with most Titleist Drivers, this piece of golf equipment is aimed primarily at mid to low handicap golfers. The 909 D3 is similar in looks and design to the Titleist 909 D2 and also the 909 DComp, however the 909 D3 has a slightly smaller 440cc head.
The 909 D3 Driver is aimed at the low handicapper who wants to control ball flight, accuracy and workability whilst enjoying unparalled sound and feel. The 909 D3 driver has a 440CC sized, titanium clubhead in a classic pear shape incorporating a deep clubface. The clubface insert has been designed to maximise the energy transfer across the clubface and rear sole ridges combine with two distinctive trapezoid shapes across the centre of the club to reduce vibration and create a fantastic impact sound. The Titleist 909 D3 Driver signals Titleist's first use of a titanium Blind Bore hosel that secures the shaft of the club within the neck and offers both stability and flexibility across the whole range of 909 D3 shaft options. A swingweight screw in the rear of the 909 D3 sole allows for any weight differences when different shafts are custom fitted. The 909 D3 driver offers the lower handicapper a perfectly fitted driver that offers complete control from the tee.
For anyone who has stuck with Titleist golf equipment, this is a no brainer, but for those looking for a little more traditional looking club head that will allow you to work the ball in today's super high MOI world, I suggest giving the Titleist 909 D3 Driver a try!

I purchased these to have something more forgiving since I was playing Ping I3 blades. Since I don't play as often I decided to buy something that would dampen mishit. I have a personal driving range and I found that my swing fault followed me, go figure :) Anyway, my 1st round was a disaster, but it wasn't the clubs. After the disaster I practiced all week with them, along with a major revision in my setup and shot 73 in my second round with them. So, they were redeemed. One thing I've noticed is that the offset is hidden well in the design of the club. I have never cared for offset, but it's almost invisible in this club. They feel really good in my hands and the thicker sole from the Ping's now seem normal.
