    I received a fitting during a fitting day from a local guy in Indy and  the launch monitor said I accuracy and distance. The result of the fitting was a D3 head with 10.5* of loft and a STOCK Ahina  72 gram shaft in an x-flex.

    I received the club yesterday and it is clearly not the same shaft. I can hit my old driver straighter and longer. And, the ball with the D3 dives out of the sky as a weak fade. I have not gained the distance or accuracy displayed the day of my fitting and now I am out $400.

    Has anyone else encountered this shocking difference among fitting results and product received? Thanks for your help in advance.

    Were you fitted indoors into a net or outside on  a range?  Also what kind of golf balls were being used during the fitting?

    Because I love to offer dumb questions, what were the club head settings used during the demo?

  5. I have had a similar experience. I was fitted for the D2 with the illia shaft, reg flexand set at C4. When I bought this club and took it to the range, all I could hit were "sky hooks". Got the blue stock shaft and the results are exactly the same. I don't know if the shafts I was fitted with were Titleist "stock" like thr ones I bought but they sure did hit different. This driver is of no use to me now.

    Ken, 

    I would love to discuss a little bit more about the fitting.  Could you give me a call at 1-888-titleist and we can figure out some solutions? 

    Thanks,

    Please allow me to provide an update from my post...The Titleist team is working diligently on fixing my problem. I am going back to the same fitter with the same launch monitor and we are going to look at the results. Once I do get those results, I will provide an update. I am slightly skeptical because I think the fitting was mostly accurate but will not let that affect the outcome. Positive or negative, I will provide the results.
