    Hi Team Titleist - 

    We had another busy day at the Quicken Loans National as Titleist Tour Reps fitted players for prototype Titleist 718 irons, to prepare them for an integral part of our iron performance validation process. It is on these proving grounds where we ensure every Titleist club is delivering on our brand promise of innovation, performance, and quality excellence.

    Best day of my golf season with the announcement of the 718 irons. I have been looking for ways to improve my AP2 irons set with easier to hit long irons and now I have a best option with the AP3. I love Titleist!!! Thanks for making my day!!

    Based on all the pictures it looks like a lot of tour players are trying out the new CB. They do look very nice I can't wait to try them either. The entire line looks like a great step forward for each iron.

    SWEET STICKS Abbey! Great news and thanks for putting all of us inside the ropes!

    2 Quick Questions-
    1.) Any rough idea of release?
    2,) Which model will replace the 716 (AP1) and 716 (AP2) ?

    Thanks so much.

    Getting a little older and leaking a little distance, I've been thinking of possible need to switch to AP1's from my current AP2's. But I don't like the larger head and increased offset. AP3's may be the solution. Can't wait to see these out and available for fitting.
  14. They all look so good. Titleist now offering ap3, killing me! How can I choose with so many great choices. So excited to demo when available

    Abby:

    Now that my wife is finished with her Cancer treatment, if you ever need an senior, 12-15 handicap to come test any equipment in Carlsbad at any time I'm 90 minutes away and would be more than pleased to do so.

    If there's a list I'd love to be on it!

    With the few pics I've seen of the AP3s, my interest level rises. Can't wait to test them.

    I don't think they can do better than the 716 ap2. Easily my favorite irons I've had.

    Beautiful irons! Oust bought my AP2s so it will be a while before I can make the move. The photo of the hybrid set with MB short irons reminds me of my old DCI irons. I'm looking forward to seeing the future of the new clubs wishing they were in my bag...
