  1. I was fitted at 2nd swing for a new driver, the fitted recommend the Titleist TSi1 12°head, I receive my club and it is a 10°, I contacted the fitter at 2nd swing to find out that Titleist discontinued the 12 and sent a 10. I then went on line to find only a 10 in L.H. and 8,10 and 12° in R.H. I sure wish L.H. Clubs were more available, I would switch to R.H. but I haven't mastered L.H. yet

    As another LH, I feel your pain.

    You should go back to 2nd swing. Titleist has only offered a 10.5/10 degree drivers in the TS-1 and TSi-1 drivers. Never discontinued.

    You should be refitted with the 10 degree to validate the shaft selection or (gasp!), offered another make that might work better if a 12 degree is needed. I have used the hosel settings set to 11.5 degrees. But my fitter worked through the settings and shaft options specifically for the 10 degree head. Including a 44.75 Tensai Blue shaft for better contact and keeping spin under 3000 rpm’s.

    As a fellow lefty, I get it. It can be frustrating at times. However, you could always adjust the surfeit setting to A-4 which will make the loft 11.5. Pretty close to the 12 you were fit for and probably not much of a difference in performance. Wish your fitter was a bit more knowledgeable and tried this option with you. Hope it works out, good luck southpaw!
  4. Amen to that. It really stinks not being able to buy a club you really want because it’s not available in left-handed
  5. I agree with you. I'm right handed but I get where your coming from, there should be a better selection for the left handers. A friend of mine is left handed and always says about the difficulty getting the clubs he wants to the spec he wants where as I could pretty much get whatever set up I want. I get that there are a lot less left handers to right so they could be producing stuff that will never sell but the option should be there. Like I say I'm a right hander so doesn't affect me but it's like when I find something I like and find it's only available in certain countries and its frustrating.

    Lefties like us can pretty much wish all we want, thats all they will be is wishes. The fact is that selling golf clubs is a business and there are gonna be options that aren't available to us. Im sure the LH market has budget cuts for obvious reasons, Check eBay, you may be able to find a 12 degree head there. We gotta make the most of what we got!
