I love my ap1's and at the moment for me there perfect hitting the ball straighter than ever and I'm attacking pins which is an amazing feeling.

Change in looks always takes time to get used to. I like them all already.

If they are a step up in performance then that's the main thing.

I agree with certain points from the 4 responses. I would also add, "don't knock em till you know how they are constructed". I am not a fan of hollow core, injection construction, or other driver like build concepts in irons. If I could still hit the MB's, I would. So I may start with the CB's and go from there but will be pulling the trigger on something!

IMO the new T-Series do not look like something Titleist would design... I'll keep my 718 AP's unless the performance gain is significant... This is not what I expected smdh

I have been wondering for quite some time now how Titleist seem to introduce winners of irons year after year. It seems to me that all golfers of a reasonable standard are looking for exactly the same thing =thinner top line with forgiveness hidden as much out of sight as possible. Is there a stage where style, technology peeks and golfers search for clubs almost do the job for the golfers, forgiveness, accuracy , ascetics reach their absolute ceiling?
Ap3 seems to be as close to the ceiling as possible.pride makes me choose AP2s because they look like a better players club and still offers me a decent level of forgiveness.
The Ts range of driving /3wood has set the bar so very high for the irons range,competitors are being forced into a race for perfection.Titleist lead by a country mile thankfully.

I don't know how you can conclude the performance of a golf club from a picture. We'll be hitting them soon enough and then we'll see

The CBs look incredible - similar to the 718s but somehow with a better flow. Curious about improvements in forgiveness and ball flight consistency. I am curious about the T100 as well, given the newer look is cleaner.

Really, looks are very important to me. I feel most confident looking down on a thinner top line and nothing chunky behind it. The back of the club is also important to me, that the design is clean, relatively simple, and instills confidence.

Never knock'em till you try'em! I always say. Plus, when you look down at the ball, you don't see the back of the club anyway, so .... don't let the looks discourage you.

Incidentally, I like every club except the T300's ... only because I've never liked the AP1 for whatever reason. Aesthetics, thicker top line, whatever .... just didn't look right to me behind the ball. But I would definitely put a number of the other irons in my bag for sure.

Titleist Thursday's are going to be fun this fall!

CB and MB still classic Titleist
T100s look great, similar to AP2
T200's l dont know, will test it.
T300's No! AP1 716 and 718 still the best.

I wouldn't paint the T series with that broad of a brush. T-100's look really nice. T-200's look fine. T-300's do look odd but then again I wouldn't play those (or AP1's) anyway. For me the T-100's look like a great upgrade to my 716 AP2's.

620 MBs look great
620 CBs look great
T100s look great

T200's like like Png G400's. T300's look like they melted a sundial into an iron.
