paul asked:
I rented some Titleist clubs and hit a 983 pretty well. I’d like to buy one, but ebay offers so many different models. If I can’t find a 983 standard flex, 10.5 degree, are any of these other models comparable?
What’s the difference between Titleist Drivers 983E, 983K, 975, 905, etc?

975 is an obsolete model…it’s from around 2000
983 models came out in about 2002-2003. The E version produces a lower ball flight than the K
905 came out in about 2004-2005 and provides a decent size head.
906 is the current model out and not provides the large size head like other brands with more forgiveness than the older models.
My advice is to try a Taylormade or Nike driver. They are more forgiving to the average player. Titleist brands themselves as clubs for top tier players…meaning the sweet spot is not as big. Crappy golfers still buy their clubs though just because the want to “pose” as a good player.
But get what you feel comfortabale with…that’s what’s most important
