Reviewed by Nicola Slater

The Titleist GTS2 is the sleekest profile shape in the line up. It’s designed to suit golfers who want power with consistency across the face. It offers a higher launch with mid level spin.

This was the model that I got fitted into at Woburn as it gave me the tightest dispersion and the most consistency. Below is the results of my testing, out of the different heads the GTS2 definitely gave me the heights ball flight peaking at an average of 88ft over 76 and 79ft. Carry distance was also the furthest at 210.8 yards on average.

The GTS3 is has a deeper more compact profile visually than you see with the GTS2. It’s aimed at golfers who want a lower launch and spin compared to the 2. It prioritises control over speed and ball flight.

Whilst strike wasn’t always great the spin rates didn’t fluctuate too badly. Ball speed still remained strong but my carry distance was down to 204.6 yards – though did run out to a similar total distance as the GTS2.

PROS

  • Piercing ball flight – good roll out distance
  • Will suit those wanting a more compact head
  • Consistent spin rates

CONS

  • For me – the dispersion was the worst out of the GTS models

Lofts: 8.0, 9.0, 10.0, 11.0 (RH/LH)

Titleist GTS4

4.5 star review

Reviewed by Nicola Slater

The GTS4 is the low spin option in the GTS line up. The tour-inspired shaping now matches the 460cc seen in the other heads. The previous generation ‘4’ models have always been smaller so now there’s more surface area for offer centre strikes. It’s designed to suit players who want maximum distance by reducing high spin rates.

I found that the spin rates were lower than I’d expect to see and the launch lower than usual. I’m not a player who is high speed and requiring reduced spin and so this model isn’t aimed at me but it’s nice to see what the comparisons are. Carry distance was still very strong and the lower spin equated to a great amount of roll out on landing.

Find out more here, including all the data.

PROS

  • Does what it says on the tin – it produces low spin
  • Good total distance
  • Head size is larger and similar to other models

CONS

  • Need to swing speed to be fast to unlock the spin and distance benefits

Lofts: 8.0, 9.0, 10.0 (RH/LH)

Weight options: Track weight with dual-weight system; 8g track weight, 5g back (standard)

RRP: £629 (standard), £799 (premium) / from $699

Titleist GT280 Mini Driver

5 star review
best mini golf drivers

Reviewed by Jack Backhouse

Off the tee, I found the GT280 Mini Driver to be somewhat of a revelation. At address the club provides a confidence-inspiring without being overly bulky. When teed lower, I was able to hit shots remarkably like a three-wood. I was able to consistently hit a controlled, penetrating ball flight with enough spin to maintain stability.

On the flip side when teed higher, it acts more like a driver. My ball flight was then launching with impressive carry and low spin for optimal roll-out. So, from the tee box the club was able to hit whatever shot I required.

The flat sole design is another masterstroke by Titleist. Unlike other Mini Drivers that can feel clunky when played off the fairway, the GT280’s sole design allows it to sit comfortably behind the ball. This makes it far easier to launch from tight lies, where other Mini Drivers might struggle. I believe it’s genuinely one of the few Mini Drivers that comfortably bridges the gap between driver and three-wood.

PROS

  • Excellent versatility off the tee and fairway
  • Flat sole design makes it easy to launch off tight lies
  • Classic Titleist looks

CONS

  • Slightly less ball speed than some alternatives

RRP: £459.00 / $499.99

Titleist GT2

4.5 star review

Reviewed by Hannah Holden

With the launch of the new GTS range this has triggered previous models being reduced in price. The GT2 driver range is now available at £499 and the for that you still get a fantastic performing product.

I love the looks, feel and performance of this product. Titleist have done a great job of taking a great TSR2 model and adding performance.

This is perfect for players who want something that provides maximum distance and forgiveness in a player inspired package.

  • Smaller more refined shaping
  • Extreme consistency in ball flight data
  • Forgiving on off-centre strikes

How do we test drivers?

At National Club Golfer we are passionate about producing accurate and thorough reviews and make sure our testing process is rigorous so we get a good understanding of how each club performs.

Each driver is hit with TP5 golf balls to allow us to collect launch monitor data with our in-house TrackMan and Flightscope. After this it is time to head out onto the golf course and test the clubs in practice and competition play. We do this across a variety of golf clubs in our base of Yorkshire.

What is important when buying a new driver?

When buying a new driver it is important to know what you want from that club to help you improve.

Most people are looking for more distance, each driver model is optimised for different things. Depending on your swing and your impact conditions, you may not actually hit the model that is advertised as the longest, the furthest. So if you want more distance it is always worth giving different models a hit before you make a decision.

For most golfers, especially high handicappers, something that is more forgiving is going to yield the best performance. Most forgiving golf drivers have a slightly bigger club head with perimeter weighting for high MOI. They also have a center of gravity that is further back to help players get more height on their shots.

Do you want something that is draw bias? There are so many models out there to help with slice correction, it would be silly not to take a look if you see your ball disappearing into the right trees too often. A closed face and draw bias weighting can get you hitting straighter shots in no time at all.

Don’t forget about the shaft either. Getting the correct shaft can help dial in your spin, launch angle and can also give you some extra distance. Having a club fitting or trying different options with your local pro can really improve the performance of your new driver.
