    I have had the TSR2 in play for over a year now. The fitting was done in on July 25, 2022 at Manchester Lane. The fitting was fun! There were so many shaft options, but Titleist nailed the right driver head with the TSR2 and a shaft that added distance and tightened the dispersion of my ball flight. I had a TSI driver in play before the fitting and I didn't think Titleist could improve performance over the TSi, but TSR is superior to TSi and anything else that's on the market!

    I was fitted for the Tsr 3 with Ventus black 6x and it's been a beast of a driver. I played the TM Sim 2 before and was wanting more distance and consistency. Titleist blew the old driver out of the water. huge increase in ball speed, longer off the tee, tighter dispersion.

    I went to the fitting looking for increased ball speed. I got a shaft that allowed for more carry. That really changed my overall distance. The head provides an unreal feel and sound. The driver got me more ball speed than I’ve had in several years. I am not a spring chicken! So that is awesome! But having said all of this I forgot to mention how great the TSR2 looks at address. As they say you owe it to yourself( if you love golf) to at least try it!

    I switched from the png G410 plus to the Titleist TSR3 and couldn't be happier. I went to trade my png driver in and hit several drivers, including Taylor Made, srxn, cally Paradym, miz, and Cobra. I narrowed it down to the cally Paradym (Triple Diamond) and the Titleist TSR3. After hitting many balls with each, the Titleist was considerably more consistent than the cally. Unlike previous years models, this new TSR line of drivers is very forgiving on off center strikes, and plenty long. I love it!

    I went into a fitting with a TS3 with the white Evenflow shaft, and came out of it with a TSR2 with a ventus black 7x. The fitting came down to either getting the TSR2 or the cally rogue. The TSR2 was more accurate and longer. I had an 8.5 tuned up to a 9.25, now I have a 10 tuned down to a 9.25. I love the driver. I’ve never hit it so long. Since the beginning of the season, I’ve picked up some club and ball speed. The shaft feels like it loads a little differently now than it did when I got fit for it. So, I may try some other shafts in it.

    My TSR2 3 wood is an absolute beast of a club. I have never had a better 3w. It has a hazardous TX shaft, and oh man I love the way it feels. I can absolutely rip it, and I know it’s coming out straight and long. I’m probably going to experiment with a hazardous shaft in my driver as well this winter. Can’t wait for next season to start.

    My preference to this TSR2 driver or any of the other models is the simple and classic looks. I like the sound upon contact, solid and somewhat muted sound and the feel is what I like over other brands I've tried. Very controllable, with excellent carrie and distance, along with the ability to shape shots. It would take something exceptional for me to change, which I haven't found yet.

    I went through a driver fitting on January 2, 2023 after thinking about a switch. Previous driver was a cally Epic that I was happy with and performed well with. Worked through the TSR 3, TSR 2, cally Rogue, and a png driver with multiple shafts.

    Fortunately for me the TSR 2 out performed every other combination in distance, height, and dispersion. Even the mishits were acceptable. I wanted the TSR, but would've been happy staying in my Epic or another make if the fitting suggested so.

    Nearly one year in and I'm extremely happy and thankful that the TSR 2 won out in the fitting!

    Back in 2020 I bought a png 410 LST driver, this was the best driver I had ever played, but in 2022 the head cracked and they replaced it with a 425 LST....I spent 14 months wrestling with that driver to get it to feel remotely close to knowing where the ball was going to go when I swung. This August I had a Titleist fitting with the TSR line of drivers.....I bought a TSR3 and for the past 3 months the ball goes where it feels like it should go based on where on the face I strike it (I know where its going!!)....good or bad, but mostly good as the ball is carrying about 5-10 yards further and releasing about the same (similar spin rate). Ball flight is good, I am able to hit it high, mid, low thru windows and curve as needed.....this is now the best driver I have ever played in my life. Earlier this year I replaced my cally 4 wood with a TSR2 16 degree wood....WOW, great club which led me to the driver fitting. You have found something with the TSR line....congrats!!!

    Back in 202 I bought the png 410 LST....it was the best driver I had ever played. In 2022 the head cracked and png replaced it with a 425 LST....I spent 14 months wrestling with that club to figure out to hit it....never felt good, didn't perform close to any other driver I had played prior. I gave it the college try and in August 2023 went to a Titleist fitting (Tim Ford) where he fit me with the TSR3 9 degree....WOW!! New best driver I have ever played....better than my old 410 LST. Able to carry it about 5-10 yards farther than before....similar rollout with tight dispersion. Hit it high, mid, low, curve right or left.....feel like I have 3 clubs in my bag with just this one driver. You guys found something in the TSR line....congrats!!! Earlier this year I replaced my cally 4 wood with a TSR2 16 degree wood which has done so well it is why I tried the driver fitting with TSR. Well done!!!

    I was fitted with the TSi2 in May of 2022 with an 8 degree head set to A1. When the TSR came out soon after that I "upgraded" to the TSR2 sight unseen. I'm glad I did. I wasn't 100% happy with the TSi2 in a few minor ways: appearance (long looking head), sound and feel. I wouldn't have guessed the TSR would be such an improvement in all of those ways, but it was. The ball definitely comes off the TSR faster and I think it's a little easier to work when I am able to do it. I'm happy with it and switch between a Project X Riptide and Hzrdus Smoke Blue RDX.

    I was lucky enough to go out to California for a whole bag fitting. I have used a Titleist driver for the last 15 yrs.....so based on the Titleist program that would be 7.5 new drivers. This is the first time I have gone with the 4 version, little bit smaller and makes me concentrate on hitting the middle of the face a bit more. I now coach High School golf ( Boys and Girls) so I need to make sure I stay on top of technology so I don't let them outdrive me :)

    I had a 10 year old Titleist 913 driver that I felt was my go to club in the bag for consistency. Turning 70 my wife treated me to a fitting and a new driver. Ended up with the TSR2 and I now have a new go to. Consistent is the word that comes to mind. I believe I have found about 15 more yards and just love this club.

    I play TSR because I like to go at it, full send, and the heel hit ball speeds where phenomenal compared to the competition. Thats generally my miss. Also, the TSR2, with its high MOI, launches high, with low spin, even with an 8* head the increases ball speed and smash factor. Best of all worlds.

    I've played a Titleist drive since I was in High School. I was fitted by Joey at TPI for the new TSR3 and it has helped my scoring so much. What I loved about my fitting experience with driver is that we focused not only on fitting to my good swings, but to my misses. My dispersion on misses is so much better with my new driver and we have successfully eliminated my left miss. I don't think I've missed a driver left in 2 years. Titleist iterates their equipment better than any other manufacturer and their commitment to the fitting experience is best in class. Golf Rabble is forever Team Titleist.

    I've been using my Titleist TSR3 Driver for almost a year now and it has been such an amazing experience! Using the Bushnell Foresight at my golf store (The Golf Exchange in Torrance, CA), I'm able to dial down my swing to a tea and I believe that I've found out every little quirk about the TSR line-up. Since we have the Titleist DEMO drivers, I have tested the TSR3 and TSR4 Driver heads with my HZRDUS X-Stiff Shaft and I've fallen in love with the both of them.

    For the TSR3, I have found to have the most forgiveness and is excellent for my straight to slight draw shot-shape. The TSR4 should be illegal. I shaft the heavier weight towards the face and I'm averaging under 2000 RPM of ball spin with an average swing speed of 112 MPH. If I want distance with a lower launch angle, the TSR4 is the champion compared to any of the TM, png, cally, or srxn drivers.

    Although I am using a stock driver shaft, I still see excellent performance from the TSR3 and I've seen more and more fairways ever since I've added the stick to my bag. I can't wait what Titleist will do accomplish for the Tour Players using it.

    Would anyone recommend any premium shafts that I should try out? Thinking about a 60-65g X-Stiff Shaft with low spin and mid-trajectory. TourAD or Ventus TR Velocore? Would it be worth it to make the change?



    Driver Specs: Titleist TSR3 9.0 Degrees

    I also have the TSR3 in the bag currently. As for a premium shaft, I can recommend the Ventus TR shaft as one you should try. Very stable, great feel and the mid trajectory provides a great ball flight. The TR blue is wonderful, I moved to the TR black because I needed a lower trajectory but that has more to do with my swing than the Ventus TR. That shaft family combined with the TSR3 is a great setup, you won't be disappointed.

    It has been a whole new world for me stepping back into golf. I played a ton as a kid and then life took priority, college / family / career. Stepping back into it, 20+ years later, the technology is great. With launch monitor or GPS system putting data at your fingertips and more knowledge about what to look for or at from a coaching perspective, there is a lot of ways to evaluate and quantify you as a golf and how the equipment works for you.

    I went into my fitting with a 975D driver, 3 wood & 5 wood. After getting fit for new irons and wedges the previous spring, replacing my 32 yr old set Hogan Edge with a set of T100S and SM9’s. I started with just the driver, testing a variety of manufacturers. Loving my Titelist irons and the sound of my 975D, I gravitated to the TSR line to see what new wood technology was going to offer. I increased ball speed by 3 mph and gained 25+ yards, but the coolest aspect was the mishit yardage gains over the 20 year old tech. Mishits went from getting punished at 60+ yards to 20-30 yards. Combining the data with the look and sound of the TRS3, that is where I landed. Playing it for a season up here in Minnesota, it was everything my coach and I were hoping for. Later in the spring a TSR 3 wood quickly replaced my old one. Looking to the off season, now I plan to replace the 5 wood and see if there are some gains or gapping improvements with swapping out the 4 or 5 irons with a T200 build.
    Nice work Titleist engineers… As an engineer myself, it has been a ton of fun to dive into the technology and experience the features and performance that you are striving for..

    I was fitted for the TSR4 as part of a full bag upgrade last fall. Dispersion is tighter and I can launch the ball high and far. Confidence is high with this driver! Over 150 rounds I have achieved some PR drive distances on holes I have played for decades. Attached post is from a British Isles trip. Highlight is driving a Par 4 at Dumbarnie.

    I'm playing TSR because they are the best woods I've ever played. It started with the driver. I used to play the TS2 which was a great driver but I got too much spin with zero roll out. I was looking for a lower spin driver and planned on trying the TSR3 but then I did some research on the TSR4 and the ability to change the weights around. That combined with the face technology shared with the TSR2 sold me on it. I bought that in October of '22 and am so glad I did. Similar carry to my TS2 with way more roll out.

    After finding success with the TSR4 it was time to start upgrading my hybrids and woods. First came the TSR2 21* hybrid followed very shortly thereafter by the TSR2 18* hybrid. First time since my 913 hybrids that I found something that were a better fit for me.

    Lastly came the 3w, which I had no intention of replacing my TS2 15*. That was until they came out with the TSR2+ 14.5*. It's the perfect fairway finder off the tee and I still hit it just as well off the deck. That combined with it being easier to hit out of good lies in the rough due to it's deeper face has made it one of my favorite clubs in the bag.

    Couldn't be more happier with the TSR lineup!

    I had shoulder surgery about a year ago, and have lost a bit of distance with my driver. I have been playing a png G400 Max for the last 5 years. I’m doing a Titleist fitting this Wednesday, and really hoping to to find some distance with a good fitting.

    Just to follow up; I was fit today for a TSR4 driver with a stiff Speedmesh shaft, and TSR2 4&7 woods with Speedmesh regular shafts.
