    Hi John,

    I highly recommend getting fitted and keep an open mind. I went in thinking I would walk away with a D2 (as that is what I have always played in the past) and ended up with the D3. The results were big for me. Let us know what you end up getting!

    Hi John,

    I would go see a PGA Professional and get fitted for the driver. But I play the D3, i feel it helps my shape my shots better off the tee vs. the D2, but it is not as forgiving as the D2. The 915 driver is the best driver i have ever played.

    Hi John, 

    I would recommend getting fitted, but here is my outlook on the two, the D2 is more forgiving than the D3; however, the D3 allows you to control the shape of your shots better.  I had the 915 D2 and just ordered the D3, after I hit the D3 at Golfsmith.  Both are outstanding drivers, I would also recommend looking specifically at the shaft that would best fit your swing (speed, plane, etc.) the shaft in the driver really makes a huge difference as well as the head.

    I tried them both.  The numbers were slightly better with the D3, but ended up buying the D2, just because it's more forgiving.  The D3 makes a better sound though!

    I have one of each, and prefer the D3, especially on courses where I will need to hit a left-to-right shot in addition to my usual draw. 

    The head on the D2 is noticeably larger, which is a turn-off in and of itself for many people, but I do get a little more distance (and forgiveness on off-center hits) with it.  If I am going to a tight driving course, I'll always take the D3.  When it's more wide-open, I bring the D2.

    Played the 910D3 until the 915s came out and during the fitting noticed the difference in accuracy with the D2.  Lost maybe 5 yards during the fitting, because the fitter asked that I bring the old driver.  Very close in distance on the course.  Personally, I will take the accuracy.  Just one person's opinion.

    I agree it's all about proper fitting, my playing partner has a D3 i have a D2 he's a high spin player I'm a low spin player. i'm about 20 yards longer? but i'm also 12 years younger but with his D3 setup his gap is a lot closer than one would think to total distance.

    GET FIT.

    I purchased the D3 because I like the shape more. To me the D3 just looks better behind the ball and it is still forgiving. I play the 9.5* head in the D3, if I went with D2 I would have gone with 8.5* head. More loft = more control IMO
