gtr_skyline Posted July 11, 2009 Report Share Posted July 11, 2009 Hello everyone, new here...but wanting a new driver. Which would everyone choose between the Tourstage 901 and the Tourstage 701R? shaft is irrelevant as it will be swapped out, but which is the better head? Thanks.

Bman Posted July 11, 2009 Report Share Posted July 11, 2009 I have both. They are both great heads. Square set-up. 701 R is deeper-faced, shorter from heel to toe and front to back. 901 launches a little higher (may be the shaft; kai'li in 701R and EV7 in 901). You can't go wrong with either head with the right shaft. Two of the best-looking, cleanest heads around and both pop the **** out of the ball. As far as fade bias, I can't tell much diff between the two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xchangmanx Posted July 12, 2009 Report Share Posted July 12, 2009 Yea for me too the 901 goes higher and alittle farther. My only argument is the heel shots feel really bad compared to the Rs heels hits. At address the 701R looks better to me, but the 901 sits nicer, more firmly. Like B said, the 701Rs deep face is noticeable compared to the 901. It does make a difference in ball spin. If you struggle w/height I'd go w/the 901... That said the 701R is very workable high and low. Dispersion on the kaili rules all. If you miss left get the kaili. I play both drivers and the distance is difference minimal. If I had to choose one driver to keep it'd be the 701 as i like the look of the deeper face and shorter front to back look. But the 901 is indeed a very beautiful club, and I will always have one.
