Two new TS models giving new meaning to 'Titleist Speed Project'. Your(PW) pitching wedge has 46 degrees and your 9 iron is 42 degrees. As we were launching the new T-Series, we met a lot of golfers who were really excited about T100 but had become accustomed to playing stronger-lofted iron sets. I want to copy and paste this reply, to use for those who haven’t actually tried it, like you did. It’s true. Only 2* stronger than T100 which are the same specs as my MP59s. Looks. Case in point: A year ago, the T100•S would have been totally out of character for Titleist but if you’ve been keeping up with the new (and improved) version, it makes perfect sense. In addition to his editorial responsibilities, he was instrumental in developing MyGolfSpy's data-driven testing methodologies and continues to sift through our data to find the insights that can help improve your game. To overcome that and provide playable trajectories (higher peak heights, steeper landing angles with stopping power) you need more dynamic loft. Done. Not true… in the 80’s Player carried 2 and 3 irons. MOI, swing weight length, flex …….you are an idiot. New fully-forged dual cavity construction provides precise distance and control. The T100•S is almost exactlylike the T100, except that the lofts are 2° stronger. All my clubs are 4* apart or 3.5* so the distance gaps are consistent. At a price tag of $1,200, we’d recommend an older model of the Titleist CB sets unless you hate money. The modifications in T100 seem to be true to this emp… As in now, I don’t have to have two 6 irons…. If that’s not appealing to you, remember that T100, T200, T300, 620CB, 620MB, and maybe something else will be on the rack next to it. Even on a relative basis, it won’t tell you launch angle, spin rate, peak height, descent angle or whether you’ll be able to stop a ball on the green. I then took my custom fitted irons for a spin, on course at Houldsworth Golf Club to see if the the T100S had added benefits over the T100 in real life scenarios. Stronger-lofted irons may require a fresh look at gapping, some reconfiguration of the bag and perhaps even an extra wedge. So…. I believe this is for the players. If a 6 goes 150 yards then I want my 7 to go 140 give or take a yard.. The T100S reminded me a little of when I reviewed the Mizuno MP-20 iron range last year. Let along from Titleist, the most prestigious company in golf. I like the look of these irons and give kudos for Titleist to bring these irons I always looked for the classic profil of T100 with T200 lofts. Hi Thomas, are you sure you’re not referring to the W wedge, stock loft at 50*? 98-102 driver and 89-84 on irons. Now Titleist has readdressed the situation with the T Series. Junkaholic, obviously your comments are the only stupid ones.. CG, MOI, and ultimately spin rates will affect this. Each iron’s loft was altered to hit a certain distance so that each iron actually may not have the exact same loft difference. Notify me of followup comments via e-mail. Another thing we observed the T100s had a draw flight a bit more pronounced than the AP2s. In the late summer of 2019, Titleist released the completely re-engineered T-Series irons that included the T100, T200, and T300. Plus due tonsaid shoulders, my swing plane is steep so I get the ball up in the air which also reduces distance. I have a degree in design, we live in an age of seer design nightmares (look at some of the college football and pro uniforms, look at the ugliness of the average McMansion these days). I have to say the head looks exactly the same as the T100. I wish these online golf “personalities” would stop comparing distance and spin rates in one 8 iron to another and start comparing dispersion and stopping rates at certain distances. The Ping i500 irons are beautiful player-distance irons that deliver a high launch, low spin and impressive distance.. This is all very positive as it means Titleist have succeeded in reducing the loft but not reducing the quality of looks. This iron is aimed at elite golfers with 7 iron ball speeds of 105 mph plus. They have a slim topline, little offset, great looks and they feel just as good as the forged ones and are even reasonably priced. It would be worth a fitting to try. The TitleistT200 irons are the successor to the AP3. My 47 degree MB wedge will certainly perform VERY differently than a 47 degree club with the makeup of say, a P790. When I miss hit one out of the heel it flew low and right with a noticeable yardage difference. I would not buy jacked lofts because then it would throw the gaps of my bag out the window. In the end who cares if you are playing a jacked set or not you still have the same number of irons, the only problem is that the 2.5 degree gapping for long irons and 6 degree gapping for wedges certainty will not be beneficial to many players. Pre-sale begins March 12 with full retail availability starting March 27. I think this is a great idea by them. The Titleist T100 irons offer better players who like the look of blades with more forgiveness and a lot of options. But a recent sim test session of a strong lofted iron showed huge distance and high launch. When we start legislating lofts, maybe we should go back to wooden shafts, wood heads on woods and balata golf balls. And, yup, here we are, though the T100•S isn’t even remotely what I thought we’d be talking about. especially done with 4 or 5 iron for different skill level of golfers? Tour-refined sole shape (same as in T100) features a thin topline, minimal offset and enhanced camber for improved turf interaction. Now there has been enough argument about lower CG in irons so that the static loft have to drop to counter that have we seen any serious in depth tests done? No. The ball stopped within a few feet on the green with the T100S compared to a few yards with the T400. Simple findings really - the further I hit it, the more chance I have of hitting it off target. Titleist is known for its focus on high-level amateur and Tour players. If you’re reducing loft to add distance and you have any aspirations of holding greens, you’re going to have to move some weight around inside the head as well. The thing I don’t like about virtually any modern irons is why do they have to look all angular and pimped up, like some kind of high tech monstrosity? I find the ego hurts your score more then any club in your bag. Nope. The new set is T100s, 4-PW. What a bunch of BS. Not so smart if the company doesn’t have that STRONG WEDGE business…. You be the decision maker on whether that is a good thing or not... My extensive indoor testing of the T-Series irons range and the T100S range in particular, gave me the kind of results I was expecting from this new iron. Key technology ... There’s no question, this is one of the easiest irons to hit on the market, even when considering the emergence of full hybrid-iron sets. Nearly every manufacturer has a set of irons (if not multiple sets) in the category but Titleist thinks something is missing. Things change. Would’ve had zero issued continuing with the T100 as they are lovely irons and the best I’ve played, but really believe these will help to improve my game just by having a little less loft – regardless of how far I’m hitting each club. I then compared the 2019 T100 and T200 models directly to the 2020 T100S model at LSH Auto, Stockport and the T100S against the other new iron for 2020, the T400. Availability begins Aug. 28. Talge says the idea for T100•S isn’t much different than the intent behind the original AP2. FIRST LOOK: Titleist releases T100S, T200 irons in limited black finish By: Jonathan Wall August 13, 2020 Titleist's T100S is one of two irons to receive the black PVD treatment. Gold. They did this at same time as bringing out two bladed iron models in the 620 CB and MB. The T200 and T300 both offer new Max Impact face technology to increase ball speed and launch, […] Titleist T100 Review. The T100S irons are 2 degrees stronger and a thinner club face for maximum distance. How is a set of 5 to pw then two gap wedges different from a set of 4 to pw then gw with shorter shafts if the loft of the first set’s 7 iron is the same as the 6 iron in the later set? What a stupid and obviously uninformed comment, why not make them all exactly the same material, construction, shap, size, CoG. Where can I find out more? The center of gravity was adjusted (lowered) so that you don’t hit stingers all day. I would personally feel that the number on the bottom is only a guide for me. When Titleist launched only five new iron models last fall, I figured that meant I’d be telling you about another new Titleist iron right about now. Soon we will have a 20* “7” iron and who knows how many wedges. Guys, loft is an essential fitting variable for the rest of the bag, too. Golfers that are not as good, or don’t care to shot shape as much, and are looking for something more forgiving, can get the benefits of distance AND a decent launch and decent angle to hold more greens with their irons. Always appreciate the content. The T100S will retail for $175 per club in steel ($1,400 for a set of eight). No prizes for guessing what the 'S' stands for then - strong. Your swing speed is slow compared to a PGA tour pro. That’s not to say all loft-jacked irons perform as advertised but it also doesn’t mean that none of them does. Tony, I am confused by your comment that a player loses something with jacked “lofts.” When I have 150 yards to the green, I am likely to be hitting a club with a combination of length, loft, etc., that will get me 150 yards, not a specific club whether it is a 6 iron, a 7 iron or whatever. It all depends…whether that slight increase causes you to hit more water hazards or sand traps because you forced a shot to go for the glory. The reason? The TitleistT100 irons are beautiful – a perfect fit for the eye of the accomplished player. If a 5 iron is built several degrees stronger, it’s essentially a shorter 4 iron that is properly swing weight balanced. As a 70 year old I find it interesting that I hit 2 clubs less from 150 yards than I did 30+ years ago. Back in your day, drivers were made of wood and golf balls were filled with feathers. Intrigued by your comment about the way we gap our bags being fundamentally flawed. Tungsten weighting is used in the heel and toe to reduce the centre of gravity and increase stability. So when you are redesigning and rebranding the most used iron model on the PGA Tour, what are you trying to accomplish? SEVERAL YEARS AGO I PLAYED WILSON STAFF – PITCHING WEDGE LOFT 50* If you were to listen to Tom Wishon, he does get the swing weight and design right if you want to be exact. That would be interesting. Will be curious to see how they do in sales with these, particularly with all the other forged players distances options out there. I certainly hit the T-300’s at least a club longer and would just have to adjust my set but reality is whatever I do I need to fill in between a 180 yard hybrid and a 95 yard 54* sand wedge with 6 clubs. ago or farther. Another consideration is that there is a new generation of golfers making their way to the PGA Tour, guys who have never played anything other than jacked lofts. And, yes, the soles were tweaked as well to keep bounce angles consistent with the T100. Also will have in my bag; Driver, #3 + #5 woods, #4 + #5 hybrids + Putter. Extended Apex range now has an iron for every golfer. If I needed a 7 iron with “jacked” loft to get there, wouldn’t I likely need a 6 iron with a more traditional loft – in other words, I might be using a club with the same loft even though one would be called a 7 iron and the other a 6 iron. I personally would like to see the PGA implement a hard-and-fast, violate-this-and-you-will-be-deemed-‘non-conforming’-rule where all clubs have a static loft, i.e. A “6.75 iron”? What I do know is that growing numbers of golfers are flocking to the player’s distance category. You may hit a blade 7 iron and a distance 7 iron with the EXACT same launch and decent angle, but they may have a 20 yard discrepancy in distance. Not the average player. You think the T200 is more forgiving? Wouldn’t that equate to a driver of like 5 degrees? My club is an over 55 men’s group, on a 160 yard par 3 seen Great!… Now I don’t have to have two of the same numbers in my mixed bag of T100’s and T200’s….??? At least you could inform the people “we have smth in the back log” because I would be really pi**** if i just bought new T100. In recent years manufacturers have realised that they can’t put the word 'distance' into ‘tour’ or 'players' irons as it may prove detrimental to the user, or more importantly the potential user - you or I. In a “better player’s” club, that’s a turf interaction problem waiting to happen. It's everything you would expect from a forged Titleist iron. I try to buy clubs for me that work best for me and do not care when I pick up a seven iron on a par 3 whether the guy playing with me has a 6 iron or an 8 iron. I care whether the club I hit helps me get the ball on the green. Titleist created their T-Series irons to provide a complete set of options for every type of golfer. If this is you, money is no object and you're in the market for some shiny new sticks that will last a lifetime, then look no further.
