Hello fellow Titleist gearheads,
I have a nice throwback for you all. I'm currently gaming a set of Titleist 710CBs that are very very worn down. They were handmedowns a number of years ago and were beat even back then. I've gone through fittings, tried new sets and builds, and find myself continuing to come back to these as the dispersion/ball flight is always better than anything else I've tried or was fit into over the years. I've purchased and sold a number of iron sets over the past 6 or 7 years (rogue pro/T150/S-3, project x rifle shafts, DG120 X100, etc.) and have just always come back to my 710s. They have S300 shafts.
The face and grooves are seasoned at this point, the "cool" rust circle on the faces and basically no groove left. What do you guys think is comparable to the 710? 620CB has always been intriguing but every fitter or store employee I mention them to instantly shames the question and shuts it out. How far off are T100?
I know a fitting is the answer, but from my past fitting experiences it just hasn't been it. Maybe they were bad fits, maybe not, but performance speaks for itself which is why I keep coming back to a 15 year old iron. At this point I'm hesitant to play anything other than what matches the same profile as these 710s (shaft included). Every set I've been "fit" into all ended up being overdraw/left machines (upright, longer length) and the left side of the course is hardly ever in play with the old faithfuls. My 710s are standard everything but I know you're supposed to "trust" the fit.
Sadly, finding a mint set of the 710s is basically impossible or else I would just go that route at this point.
Just talking out loud here, curious as to what you guys think.
