GTS Driver Selection

SHAWN E — Wed, 27 May 2026 23:26:51 GMT

I am curious to know how many players who went to a fitting for the GTS lineup went from the TSR3 or GT3 to a GTS2. I want to know what feedback you guys have had with the GTS2. I am being fit end of the month. Thanks so much!!

T100s to 5 iron then T250 4 iron?

Andrew D — Mon, 25 May 2026 23:02:21 GMT

Just after some advice whether the jump from T100 5 iron to T250 4 iron will be too large a move/gap? I will be picking up T100 (4-PW with AMT white) shortly, and considering getting a T250 4 iron for those longer fairway shots and tees. I deploy offshore shortly for a year so cannot get in to a fitting for the T100's or a T250 4 iron. Any advice would be appreciated.

New GTS Driver Fitting

DRimmer — Fri, 22 May 2026 09:38:27 GMT

About to set off to Manchester Golf Club for a GTS driver fitting — my first proper fitting since buying my TSi2 back in 2021!

Been looking forward to this day for a very long time after somehow resisting the temptation of the GT

Really excited to see what numbers the GTS produces and whether anything can finally tempt the TSi2 out of the bag ️

Great fitting with Chase Wood!

Austin W — Thu, 21 May 2026 16:15:32 GMT

I I had an awesome fitting experience with Mr. Chase Wood. The fitting was super detailed, and he tested every option to help me get the best performance possible. I was fitted on May 12, and my new T250 irons and Vokey SM11 wedges arrived at my club only 7 days later!

The whole Titleist fitting experience was amazing, and I’m really excited to start my summer tournament season with the new clubs in the bag. Thank you Titleist & Mr. Wood!

Respectfully,

Austin White

Should I cut down my driver

Wed, 20 May 2026 21:27:22 GMT

I have been driving the ball decently, but am always looking for more control. I have a full length driver shaft right now and see so many tips about cutting it down. I have plenty of distance and my main concern is more center strikes and more fairways hit. Is it worth it to cut it down? If so how much should I get cut off?

Lie Angle Adjustment

Matty2D — Tue, 19 May 2026 16:53:37 GMT

I ordered clubs through Titleist and had them bent 2 degrees flat per my fitters recommendation (which was a Titleist premier fitter). He also recommended 1/2 inch short. I have been using the new clubs for several months now and I have been fading the ball a lot more than normal.

Upon researching, when you shorten a club 1/2 inches, it essentially makes the club a degree flatter. So now I believe my clubs are playing 3 degrees flat. I would like to bend them back at least 1 degree. Has anyone had experience taking them somewhere to get them adjusted? I don't wanna just go to a Dick's or something, so do you just go to a trusted pro shop or is there a retailer that specializes more in Titleist?

Thanks in advance!

GTS Driver

JMyers — Mon, 18 May 2026 15:21:06 GMT

I’m from the south central part of Virginia. Located between Danville and Lynchburg.

I was hoping someone in the group may have been fit in this area. I’m willing to drive as much as 2hrs to make sure I get the proper fitting. Not one who gives me 30 mins of their time and sticks me in a stock head and shaft without trying other options and adjusting weights to optimize the driver and ball flight.

Anyone from this area recommend a particular fitter or fitting center that they trust to do the job right?

GTS Driver weight kit

Swashbuckler — Mon, 18 May 2026 03:55:24 GMT

How can we get a weight kit for the new GTS3 driver?

So many choices here

Amanda S — Sat, 16 May 2026 14:11:19 GMT

So I’m in Chicago, not sure how to get my location changed, but there are like 50 fitters i could go to within an hours distance. How would you chose which one to go to. If i can get fitted at Medinah, think they’d let me go play the course afterwards? I know that they will all be good, maybe just look for the one that has the earliest fitting available, i guess that’s an option. The other times i got fitted i think I only had one location to go to or at least that was somewhat close.

Irons - Lighter 'B' heads for +1.5" over length build

Ryan G — Sat, 16 May 2026 04:09:25 GMT

Posted this over in Golf Clubs forum but not sure if more appropriate here, so I'm re-posting. ----

I currently have a set of 2019 T100 with the lighter 'B' heads as I play +1.5" over standard length. I lucked my way into these as I originally ordered through Golf Galaxy, after purchasing online I followed up with their customer service as I was very skeptical about these being built with a reasonable swing weight.

Their support reps got in contact with a gentleman over at Achusnet who told them that customization to the build in regards to swing weight was not something that they did anything for. They told this to me by forwarding their email thread saying "See below for details". That exposed that gentleman's email address and phone number.

So, I called him, and he confirmed what I was already being told. However, he then mentions that he thinks that he has some *B* heads laying around and then asks, "If I can find those, do you want me to use those?".

Obviously I replied yes, please and thank you.

So, boring story short TL;DR --

** If I order a set of T100 or T150 irons off the Titleist website @ +1.5" over standard, will lighter heads be used?

** I'm looking for confirmation that these still exists and are in stock, otherwise the purchase will be point less.

Also, these heads *should* be 6-8 grams lighter than stock, is that accurate?

Thanks, any help appreciated.

TPI visit

Mark S — Fri, 15 May 2026 05:08:06 GMT

I have the opportunity to go to TPI and Scotty Cameron Studio for a full fitting day, and I am very much looking forward to it. Any advice before going? I'm planning to get there early to do the TPI screen/warmup, but anything else I should make sure to do?

Fitting Location Near Piedmont Va

JMyers — Sun, 10 May 2026 23:33:53 GMT

I’m planning to get a fitting for the new GTS series in the next 2 weeks. The 2 best places I’ve found are a short drive into NC. One is the Titleist Fitting Center at Wakefield Plantation in Wake Forest and the Titleist fitting center at Pinehurst.

Does anyone have good or bad experiences with either of these places and their fitters?

GTS3 vs GT3

Rick M — Sat, 09 May 2026 16:19:49 GMT

I am playing the GT3 @ 10 degrees and just completed a fitting, and the numbers came back with the GTS3 @ 9 degrees. My question is that in my current driver I have the Ventus blue 6X velo-core, this wasn't available in during the fitting, so we used the Fujikura Project X Hzrdus 60 X shaft. The numbers were good, and showed near equal carry distance, but more overall distance by 10 - 12 yards. Can I expect the same or hopefully better performance if I put my current shaft in the new head? I am 64 yrs old with a 2 hcp. now, but usually during season I will drop to a 0 hcp, showing 104 - 106 swing speed, 280 - 288 total distance.

High swing speed-low consistency

Nick H. — Tue, 28 Apr 2026 01:19:54 GMT

I currently game players distance irons because I’m a mid-handicap (6.2 index) at my club and was looking for forgiveness. I’m a high swing speed player, averaging 110 with driver. Here’s the issue, last week a played a round with my buddy’s clubs which are blades with project x 6.5 shafts. I couldn’t miss. My irons, and fairwoods are massively inconsistent and I have gapping issues at the bottom of my bag because of the players distance irons.

Currently I game: TSI3 driver with tensei raw white 65 x 16.5 gt3 fairway with tensei 1K black 75s 19 gt2 hybrid with tensei 1k black 85s T200 4-p amt white S Vokey 46,52,58 DG wedge flex.

PW is stock 152 46 is stock 134 52 is stock 122 58 is stock 104 Yes, it’s fun to hit it long, but it’s more fun to play better and i feel as if the T200’s are too long, but I also know I need the help.

I seem to keep finding “hot spots” in the irons and I can’t control them like I would like.

Any similar handicaps with similar speeds deal with this and what was the fix?

Puring shafts

Patrick B — Mon, 23 Mar 2026 04:02:52 GMT

For about 20 years I would visit my close friend and “PGA teaching pro” every two years for a high level evaluation of my swing specs. The end result, for the most part, resulted in the same out come, 2° upright with a 1/2” half inch added to the Project X5.5 shaft. Life got in the way and I got older and hadn’t had it done for five years. I started to doubt that my swing was the same. This last time, I let 4 years go by and I wanted to once again eliminate doubts about my swing and equipment. This time I wanted to get fit by someone that doesn’t know me, my game or my ability (now up to a 6 handicap). Simply look at my swing/results, swap out shafts and heads, then recommend equipment based on the results. After a couple hours, the science paid off and we made proper equipment changes (stayed with Titleist ) With all that said, I have a couple questions; for you that know about puring a shaft, or have had it done, do you believe a premium/upgraded shaft needs it? How often do you have your swing evaluated (check your specs)?

Fitting Results

Barry M — Thu, 26 Feb 2026 02:31:17 GMT

Curious about others experience after several fittings. I have been fit for irons 3 times in the last 12 years, all by Titleist fitters, and all 3 fittings ended up with the same shaft. Odd that my first fitting recommended 2 degrees upright, but the 2nd and 3rd went 2 degrees flat after a rotator surgery and a regular routine of golf related exercise, confirming the benefits of a fitting when your health changes. I'm still considered somewhat of a hack, but I can say that whenever I get ahold of a club with the same shaft it just feels better than other shafted clubs. Also confirms my belief that the shaft is the most important part of a good fitting. Getting older now and will be considering inquiring about graphite next time. I use KBS Tour Lite and I hear that the KBS graphites have the same feel as their steel shafts. Will be interesting, and fun.

Fitting Experiences

Ethan M — Fri, 20 Feb 2026 16:58:26 GMT

This past week I went to get fit for clubs at the Manchester Lane Facility. This was my first time getting fitted for clubs and I wanted to create this thread to talk about my experience and allow others to share their experiences of getting fitted for clubs.

The facility was absolutely gorgeous even in the winter, and the hospitality from all of the Titleist staff was above and beyond. They made the experience feel so personal and it helped me ease the nerves. As a gear head I loved every step of the fitting process from trying different shafts and clubs heads to seeing the numbers and improvements. A special shout-out to my fitter Chris O'Rourke for such an amazing experience and comprehensive fitting. He walked me through everything he was looking at and made me feel confident with my new clubs. I ended up getting put into the GT2 driver and hybrid, GT280 Mini Driver, T250 4 Iron, T150 5-PW, and the new SM11 wedges. The new clubs are expected to come in two weeks and I am looking forward to taking them on the courses for the 2026 season.

Gripping down & Shaft length

Steve W — Sat, 14 Feb 2026 00:11:58 GMT

I am trying to determine the dynamics of gripping down on the driver. I read that you can lose distance and gain control. But how much distance would you lose gripping down 3 inches on a standard 45 inch shaft. I have read different opinions…some say they hit the ball farther - better contact, would you get more swing speed (not necessarily clubhead speed). What would adding a bit more weight to the driver head do? Way too many variables! Thanks, sorry if this has already been covered.

Driver Fitting - Marietta Country Club

Keith M — Mon, 09 Feb 2026 12:01:00 GMT

I went to the Fitting Center at MCC, although I'm not a member there, the head pro has been my and my son's coach for nearly 10 years. As I've mentioned in other threads, I was fit for a TS4 a few years ago at another fitter, not associated with Titleist. The TSR4 worked briefly, but I always struggled with it and to get any kind of consistent performance.

Told Brandon my issues, my miss, and he wouldn't tell me which head I was testing at first from the very first strike - Holy Cow! - launch, flight, feel - what have I been missing all these years? Even my misses were still very playable rather than miserable duck hooks that caused instant double bogeys. I estimate 4-5 lost strokes per round just because of my poor driving. This is literally game changing. Tested two more heads, each was good, but not as good as the first.

Then we started fine tuning shafts, weight, flex, moving the weight in the head around. Ultimately going with the Mitsubishi Tensei Black in 60g, stiff, with a GT1 head, 10*, in C4 hosel position. Did it magically gain me oodles of ball speed? Yes and no. What it gives me is consistency - finding the center of the face more and optimizing the performance I'm capable of. Rather than heel and toe (or worse strikes) and maybe eeking out a 220 drive which I can hit my 3 wood farther (and 99% of the time, tee off with a 3w), I'm where I should be for my swing speed and more importantly in the fairway, or at the worst very playable.

Thank you, Brandon and Titleist. Can't wait to get it delivered and onto to the golf course if the weather will ever improve.

Iron Fitting at Titleist Pinehurst Center

Rusty B — Mon, 02 Feb 2026 02:34:42 GMT

Has anyone had an iron fitting at the new Titleist center in Pinehurst? Is it a better experience than a fitting thru a Titleist club fitter (specifically Jeff ?, can’t think of his last name at the moment; has fittings in the Raleigh, NC area). Do you hit off the turf with either? Pinehurst is definitely more expensive but I’m looking for the BEST experience. Shaft offerings about the same? Anyone with any experience with either please chime in. Would really like to hit the new T series and see if they will benefit me. Thanks for all replies! Rusty

Shafts for fairway woods

ktrieu12 — Sat, 31 Jan 2026 14:24:02 GMT

Do you typically play the same shafts throughout your fairway woods or have them progressively heavier?

I was fit (through a Titleist fitting) for a GT3 driver with a Hzdrus 60g 6.0 shaft and a 16.5 degree GT2 with a Hzdrus 70g 6.0 shaft. Thinking about adding a 7 wood to the bag and wondering if I should stay in the Hzdrus 70g or move to the 80g.

Putter

Tue, 20 Jan 2026 22:33:17 GMT

How can I do my own putter fitting? No where offers a legit service where I live. I’m curious to know how much arc is in my natural stroke

After some driver advice

Bill Dragon of 3T — Tue, 20 Jan 2026 14:44:28 GMT

I've recently started playing. I have a fitted GT2 driver, but have been lucky enough to win a custom fit driver on a raffle site. I want to stick with Titleist. So my question is; would a GT3 be any good for me and if so can I use the original specs from my first fitting? Just for some extra info; I've only been on the range and in the sim studio so far.

TIA

Driver and fairway Lie angle

nathaniel k — Wed, 24 Dec 2025 03:37:28 GMT

I was wondering if there is a way or a hack to get a more sprite setup for my driver/fairwy other than a longer shaft. “Back story” I have some pretty significant back issues and have a very steep swing. Play my iron at 3 deg upright. “Non back story” I’m in my early to more mid 40s and I don’t see me swing changing, old dogs and what not but still have pretty decent speed. Sand and Lob play at 2.5 deg upright. If it matters I also play my iron 2 deg weak.
