    Went in for my fitting at Pinehurst Country Club and automatically was 20 to 25 yards longer on the carry. We was able to keep my launch angle down around 13° or 14° as opposed to my typical 16 to 18 degrees! Loved it and very forgiving. Highly recommend!

    "Had my GTS fitting, didn't think they could get that much better, but picked up 4mph ball speed and 15 yards on average. Moving to a GTS3 from the GT2 and just bombed some drives. And the fairway woods. Wow. Love the face change, just adds more confidence and great launch." — Tim M.

    "Gamed [a GTS driver] this weekend at the Team Titleist Ballyhack event. Definitely hotter across the face than GT. Especially noticed increased carry on a couple of thinned drives. They still got out there! Sound has also improved over GT, more similar to TSR. Also hit the GTS4 a few times and it's really good. First time I've seen a 460cc head in the 4 option." — Wade W.

    "My GTS4 is cooking right now. Not sure what kind of funky voodoo they put in this thing, but wow." — MtnBiker5

    Let's not stop here. For anyone who gets fit for a GTS driver or adds one to their bag, we would love to hear your review as well!

    I had an amazing driver fitting experience with my PGA professional Mike White. I was needing a driver with more accuracy and better shot dispersion off the tee. I was fitted with the GTS3 9.0 degree with a Tensei 1k blue stiff 65g shaft. I immediately fell in love with the confidence I felt looking down the shaft at the great looking head and its design. That first swing felt amazing. The feel and sound of the club striking the ball was just what I was hoping for that I didn’t have with my current driver. There were gains in ball speed, carry distance, and I gained 20 yards in total distance. But the most impressive that closed the deal for me was the forgiveness on my miss hits. My shot dispersion was much tighter and my typical miss was still in play and not in trouble, that is where I was loosing strokes. I was so impressed I scheduled another fitting for my 3W, 3Hyb, irons and wedges. When all was said and done I was fitted with the GTS3 3W, the GT2 3Hyb, T150 irons (4-9), and Vokey SM 11 wedges (PW, GW, SW, and LW). Needless to say I went all in for a new set of Titleist clubs in my bag. All the clubs I was fitted with were amazing and I can’t wait to see how they transform my game.

    I had an amazing driver fit with my PGA professional Mike White. I wasn’t at all happy with my current driver and was looking for a driver that offered better feel, accuracy, and forgiveness. I tried several different brands of drivers but from the first swing with the Titleist GTS driver I knew this was the right driver for me. I was fitted with the GTS3 9.0 degree head with the Mitsubishi Tensei blue stiff shaft. The look and feel are awesome.....not to mention gains in ball speed, carry distance and total distance improved by 20 yards. I also saw significant improvement with a tighter dispersion of mishits. My old driver mishits were costing me stokes off the tee from trouble and penalty strokes. Was very excited to see my mishits would put me off the fairway into the rough but stayed out of serious trouble.
    I was so impressed with my driver fit and the performance of my GTS3 driver that I scheduled another fitting for all the clubs in my bag. My PGA professional (Mike White) took his time and made sure that I was fitted properly with every club in my bag. When all was said and done I was fitted for the GTS3 3W, the GT2 3 hybrid, T150 irons (4-9), and Vokey SM11 wedges, (PW 44 degree, GW 48, SW 54, and LW 60). I’m waiting impatiently for my new clubs to be delivered so I can get out and play and out drive my buddies by 20 yards.
  5. Reading all these stories just encourages me to hurry up and get fit. Hopefully in the near future I can get an entire bag fit at a Titleist institute.

    I got fitted this week by Nick Chan @ Titleist, Great experience ! we tried multiple heads and shafts and found GTS2 with Tensei red to be best. I gained 20-25 yards and more height as I was getting a lot of low ball flight from my old 917D2. Definitely worth being fit with Titleist. Also added a GTS2 fairway as well. Now I just have to wait for the box truck to show up.

    Good day all.

    I was lucky enough to spend last week with Titleist R&D via The Hackers Paradise. I was previously fitted for the GTS Driver and Woods and received them at the beautiful Dormie Golf Club in North Carolina.

    It was a pleasure to meet Josh, Stephanie, and Jacqueline (Titleist) and they were so gracious to share the intel on the products and dive deep into the development and specifics of how this came to light for Titleist after 8 long years of testing.

    There was/is not 1 thing that stands out, but many things relative to this new technology.

    In respect to the Driver, it has changed my game quite a bit. Being in my 60's (now-not thrilled) I, as many others, have lost strength and have taken on some other ailments in their elder years. Quite honestly it was a downer for me because I love this game so dearly. Then along comes this opportunity and I couldn't be more greatful for it. This new tech has increased my ball and swing speed dramatically. To a point that I have shaved about 10 years of age from my bag with the Driver (and woods). The fact that I had argued (in my head) that Sr Shafts were "bad", I now realized that I needed to trust in Titleist and my fitter. That was a home run for me.

    Relative to the Fairway Woods, this was an even bigger leap for me. I was fitted for the 3 (15*) and 5 (18*) woods. Besides the same speed and flight I mentioned above, the face is the biggest attractant to me. The silver allows me to focus alot more on the loft (it jumps out at you) and gives me a sense that I can get down to the ball versus the "thin" shots I've been struggling with as of late. Every shot that I've hit thus far has been crisp and mostly clean. Even my mis-hits went the distance and stayed pretty close to on line with my target. And of course, you look down at that beautiful crown with No Parting Line. That's just wonderful. And let's not forget that sound. It is a lovely sound that is something I find as important. Set up, looks, and sound are a big key along with the performance.

    If you have not had this opportunity to give them a whirl and you love this game like I do, go try them out. I promise you will be taken back by what you find out about the clubs and yourself. These are beautiful at set up, the sound is just stellar, and the flight is high and long.

    Don't hesitate, these are incredible. I'm in love again.

    Cheers all and "get you some".


    If anyone has any questions about these beauties, I'd be happy to share my experiences.
