    Hello I have the 710 ap2's I love them and was wondering if I should get the new 714's I've had these 710's for about 2 years and was wondering if the switch is worth it or not! Thanks

    The 710s AP2 are nice clubs and it's hard to make good performings clubs even better. I bought the 714s AP2 and can say that these are really nice clubs. I don't know if you will feel the improvements against the 710s. The best way is to test it...

    Performance-wise you likely won't see much difference, aesthetically they're worlds apart, if that's important to you.  Right now I'm playing 712mb's, but I'm thinking about switching to the AP2's if I can somehow slip it past my household finance manager when the 716's come out.  (Then I still might go with the 714's...they look that good.)

    Jake: Titleist on changes their clubs every two years, so I would say their would be a noticeable difference. That would be two cycles of R&D. If you are thinking about some new irons, the 716s prototypes should be coming out this summer to the pros and should be released to the public in mid November. I would wait til then and check out the 716 models and see what the latest technology is like in the Titleist family. The head may be a little different or they may shift the weights a little. Give it some thought, but be sure to go to a certified fitter to ensure that you get the correct set up for your game. I played the original Silverback AP2s before switching to the 714 AP2s and there was a considerable difference in feel.

    Jake,

    If you love the 710's, then you'd really like the 714's. Even more forgiving, more consistent, easier to hit long irons, very workable short irons and much more. I recommend you setting up a fitting with an Authorized Titleist rep. Take your current 6 iron with you to compare to whatever the fitter puts you in. You won't be disappointed.

    Jake,

    I agree with David above. I would take your current irons and run the numbers vs the 714s. Each player is different and I had very little difference in the 2008 model vs the 714 model. However, I've seen a friend hit the 714s significantly better than his 710s. You'll feel much better knowing the facts like David and others have mentioned, whether you buy the new ones or not.

    Jake, I've had the 710's, 712's and 714's.  Each generation gets better and better.  The 714's are not only longer, they are sweeter and have stunning visual lines.  Get the 714's.  The best line of irons put out so far.  Good luck!  Vern
