Right now i am playing a 910D3 8.5* and have it on standard setup with the lowest loft (d-1 i think)
D1 is a swing weight, not a loft.

The "8.5" you mentioned is the loft. Fwiw, that's a very low loft for an amateur golfer. I have a 7 handicap and I play a 9.5 loft (Titleist 905R).

He's referring to the adjustable setting on his driver. Setting D1 is delofted 0.75 degrees and neutral. So, he's actually playing his driver at 7.75 degrees.

d-1 is the setup on the adjustable club.

I played a 7.5* 975J throughout high school and some college.

My handicap is roughly 4.5

I own a 975d, 975j, 909, and 910. None greater than 8.5*

Just FYI
