  1. So the release date will be November, will the 712 irons be available to order directly from the factory sooner than that or will we have to wait until they are released to put in our orders?  I have all my specs and money ready to go and I'm just waiting for someone to let me know when i can pull the trigger, thanks for your patience with our anticipation.

    Our reps have just finished our summer sales meeting and are going around to all their accounts now to introduce the new 712 irons.  You can place an order now, but all the details will not be out until they finish going around to the accounts as we are still three months away from the launch.

  10. I just placed an order at my local golf shop. I'm not sure of where else you can place an order. You may try to leave a comment on this site and ask a Titleist representative.

    I spoke with our international rep and he said you can place your order at any authorized Titleist shops in Belgium.

    Hi Cathi.

    I'm scheduled for a fitting (entire bag) this Friday at the Oceanside facility.  Would you recommend that I place an order for the 710 AP1/AP2 irons or the 712 series irons?

    Thanks in advance for your insight.

    It depends on how soon you need clubs?  The 712's will not be out until November 15th.  Your fitter will be able to show you the new irons as they have some of the new heads in, but are not scheduled to fit with them because they don't have a full matrix yet. That's a great question to ask your fitter.

    Cathi,

    Mid-November is the best we can do? My 710s are pretty much done and I was hoping to replace them sooner than November.

    Our Tour Facility at O'side will be the first to fit players and they are looking forward to the next week or so.  The Tour Facility in Mass is looking at fitting them at the end of September, our Advanced FittingWorks centers will be fitting in mid Oct. and we hope to have all fitting facilities outfitted with their new fitting tools by the beginning of November.

  19. G'day Cathi,

    Do you know the release date for Australia?  And are there any drivers coming out with the irons?  If not at launch, when do you think it would be?

    Thanks!

    Hi Jayden,  Yes, mid November for Australia, too.  Our product cycle is every two years and we just released the 910 metalwoods at the end of 2010 so you will not see another launch for metal woods until the end of 2012 or beginning of 2013.

    We are planning to roll out the fitting tools, the new 712 irons, SM4 wedges and the putters mid November for all accounts.  The Tour facilities, FittingWorks Vans and the Advanced FittingWorks centers will all be fitting mid October.

    The launch date for the 712's around the world is mid November.  All accounts should be able to do fittings by the beginning of November.  Advanced Fitters should have their fitting tools by mid October.

    Cathi, Can you tell me if there are any Advanced Fitters in the St. Louis area? I'm looking to purchase the AP2s, and like many others in this thread, would love to hit the AP2s in advance of the launch to confirm that they're what I want to go with, and then pre-order. However, I'm not 100% sure of my specs, so I'd like to get prefitted (preferably by a Titleist rep, since I've had some bad fitting/customizing experiences with some chain stores). Finally, I know this is a lot for one post, but I've had a lot of questions saved up with no one to answer them since I decided earlier this year that I'd be upgrading this fall. Is there a performance difference between having the clubs fitted in the store vs. ordering them direct from Titleist? Thanks for all the help. Joel

    Hi Joel,  At this time, we don't have any Advanced Fitters in the St. Louis area.  Our rep would recommend Winghaven CC, Nathan Charnes at (636) 561-9464, The Falls at Turtle Creek, Brian Schmersahl at:  (636) 240.4653 and Pro-Am Golf, Craigh West at:  (314) 647.8054

    I had another question that was not addressed. Is there a performance difference between having the clubs fitted in the store (i.e. inserts added to the shafts for lengthening, in-store adjustments to lie, etc.) vs. ordering them direct from Titleist (presumably, shafts cut to length, etc.)? Further, where do I even go to pre-order the 712 AP2s (assuming I settle on purchasing these)? Do the chain stores (e.g. Golf Galaxy, Golfsmith, Edwin Watts) facilitate pre-orders? Or do I need to take another route? If so, what? The facilities mentioned in your prior message? I'm really trying to purchase your product here (a pretty pricey purchase, I might add), but not feeling like you're making it easier to do so... I appreciate the help with ALL of my questions. Thanks. Joel

    The three pro shops listed were our rep's recommendation for fitting in your area because he feels that their fitters would do the best job.  Once you have your specs, you can order them through any Titleist shop including GG, Golfsmith or Edwin Watts.  All Titleist shops should be able to take a pre order for the 712 irons now, but the majority of shops will not have their fitting tools for the 712's until the beginning of November. We would recommend that you have all the work (ie shaft length, bending, etc) done at Titleist.  There is no extra cost to have the clubs bent, lengthened or shortened.

    Joel, do yourself a HUGE favor and buy these clubs from a PGA Profssional that is a Titleist Authorized Retailer. He will become a great asset to your game and he will also have the clubs made to your specs by the Titleist factory. Yes, there are a number of discount retailers that can modify a set they have on the shelf but unless they do it all the time there is always a chance that they will not get it right. When the factory does it, it is done by technicians that build custom clubs all day every day. It is thier primary focus in life and they are EXPERTS at it. I have had many sets made for both myself and my students and not one of them has had any problems.

    Cahti has given you great info, please use it and let Titleist build your clubs for you.

    Best of Luck!

    Cathi - I'm located in Attleboro, MA (02703). I'd like to see who Titleist recommends as the best fitter in my area. I'm willing to drive anywhere in MA or RI as long as the process is comprehensive. I purchased my last set from one of the top pro shops (per Golf Digest) in the US located in South Easton, MA and had a lousy, lousy experience. To add insult to injury, the fitting process for a set of Titleist irons cost me $80. After spending $1k on the AP2's, I ended up being unable to even hit the irons due to the lie adjustment and shaft that was recommended and had to dump them for a huge loss on Ebay. The most common issue I have had is that the club fitter fails to have all the shafts I'd like to try, particularly the lighter weight steel shafts. Finding a highly rated Titleist club fitter with an extensive fitting cart and outdoor range (to actually try out the recommended fit) would be a must for me to ensure my next Titelist purchase is one that will last for the next 5+ years. I would go through my home course but the pro does not have a fitting cart at his location. Thanks so much for your advice!

    Hi Liam,  We would highly recommend coming into our Tour Facility in Acushnet, MA.  We have a limited number of fitting times left in October before the facility closes for the winter at the end of October.  This facility is where our Tour pros come to be fit during the East Coast swing of the PGA Tour and they have a number of spots open to fit consumers.  They only fit during the weekday and they will have all shafts and heads there.  The iron fitting will take about one hour, it will be outside with a Trackman and you will be treated and experience the same fitting as a Tour player.  The cost is $150.00.  If you would like reserve one of the remaining times, please call us at 1-888-TITLEIST.

  40. Cathi, Can you recommend the best fitter for the new 712's in Seattle (98117)? Thanks, Ryan

    Hi Ryan,  Our Seattle rep recommends Marti O'Neill over at Riverbend GC and his number is (253) 856.5199 or Nelson Knight at Puetz Golf (206) 362.2272

    Cathi, I have had a heck of a time trying to buy a set of 710 CB's from a local pro shop. The pro says that inventory is so thin of 710's that they would be checking tour vans, etc. I can hardly believe this is true. The only thing I can think of is that its not worth the pro's time to try to sell something he doesnt have in stock. Ok, so fine, no prob I think I will order 712's and by what I have read here, we are looking at November. My question is, are you going to offer a 2-iron in the AP-2's (please do!) or are is it still only going to be available in the CB's? Thanks
  43. Cath D.

    Hi Jesse,

    I show if you order a set of 710 CB (RH or LH) irons, they will ship in 2-3 days.  Perhaps he was thinking of MB's which are sold out?  The only 2 iron offered will be in the CB set. 

  44. Where do you recommend going in Columbus, OH for a fitting (712 AP1's)?
  45. Cath D.

    Our rep recommends Bill Steines or Don Sargent over at Scioto CC and their number is: 614.486.1039.
