I headed down to Titleist’s performance centre at Woburn to get fitted for the new GT driver last month. I was eager to see what was new as I was unsure how they would improve from last year’s TSR2 model.
The interesting tech here is the new proprietary matrix polymer which makes up the seamless thermoform crown. This is a fancy way of saying the previous titanium crown has been replaced with a new lightweight material which saves weight and allows more weight to be put at the bottom of the club head and on the perimeter to drive up forgiveness.
It is very impressive how they have managed to combine this into the club head seamlessly and still maintain that classic Titleist gloss crown look we all love.

Not only was the ball going higher it was also more consistent helping my shots become more repeatable.
The biggest difference I saw was in the dispersion. I was extremely accurate with the GT2 to the point where I wondered if I was ever going to break that tiny little grouping. This consistency would really help out on the golf course, as the shots are so predictable that it makes it really easy to control your ball.
Titleist has pulled it out the bag again. The GT3 driver was a fantastic performing driver for me and I think for a lot of club golfers. I suspect that this will be a popular choice on golf courses up and down the country this year.
The ever endearing sound of a Titleist has remained whilst the brand have made some technological improvements in the club head. A lot of adjustability is offered alongside a stable ball flight and quick ball speeds.
Off the tee, I found the GT280 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

I am a huge fan of Titleist’s TSR range, and the new TSR1 driver seems to round off the series nicely. As with all Titleist drivers, it feels like a premium product and really well-built. Behind the ball, it’s a confidence-inspiring shape, and with it also feeling so light in your hands, you get the impression that you can swing hard and generate some speed but still expect consistent results.
The magic of Titleist’s TSR range is that you go for a fitting for a TSR, not a specific model. This is because Titleist wants you in the best possible driver for your game and have no preconceived notions about what head and shaft combination that may end up being.
After the first strike, I felt like an idiot. The ball came off the face pretty low, and where I would normally look to see the ball in flight, there was nothing there. The ball instead was about 30 ft higher than I was expecting and still in the air long after I thought it would be.

I hit a few more shots with it and was really impressed with how easy it was to hit and how effortlessly I was able to get the ball in the air higher than I ever have. The first shaft I tried was the TSR1 specific shaft which is only 40g, and I loved it. The ball was spinning way too much to be optimal, but I didn’t want to stop using it as it was just so much fun.
Overall this is a great addition to the TSR line-up; it will help slower players hit it higher and further whilst also helping low-spin players enjoy hitting driver more often. It won’t be for everyone, but it will help many golfers enjoy their games more.
The re-shaping Titleist has done here is exceptional. The aerodynamics research has led to a completely different head shape and I love the deeper more compact styling. I also love the details they have added such as the rounding in on the toe which was immensely popular in the TSi3 driver.
Straight away I was blown away by this driver. I love how Titleist have made the club head more compact, it definitely has more of a player’s feel at address and makes you feel like you are going to be able to get the club head moving fast.
I was really pleased with this increase in distance in the two model as last year I opted to use the TSi3 model over the TSi2 purely from a ball speed and distance perspective. While this was great purely from a speed point of view it meant I was sacrificing in other areas.

Overall I was so impressed with this driver in testing, it has gone straight into my golf bag!
Titleist hasn’t done much with the shaping of the three model. After all, if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. TSi3 players will be pleased to hear it looks almost identical over the golf ball and retains that classic small player profile head.
I think the shaping of this is still my favourite in the TSR driver line-up. It is very tour inspired and for the better player definitely inspires confidence over the ball.
Compared to the TSi3, I feel this performed very similar, but I think faster club speed players who get more spin than me would get more out of this model.
Overall I got pretty good club head speed and distance with this but my spin was slightly too inconsistent. This was purely down to my strikes locations, but it is clear to see this model isn’t as forgiving as the TSR2 option.
Straight away over the ball, you can see this is a better players club. We have a smaller pear-shaped 430cc head with a deeper club face than other models in this range. Although this is very attractive, I would think for the majority of golfers; this might be more intimidating than confidence-inspiring.

The TS4 driver is basically two products in one. This is because are two ways you can configure the sole weights to either maximise spin reduction or maximise forgiveness.
I was really impressed with how much performance I got out of this, as I didn’t think it was a model that would suit my game. I got my highest club head speed of any TSR model with this, which gave me an impressive average carry distance of 238.5 yards.
Overall this is a great addition to the TSR line-up, but it works for a very specific type of player who wants to reduce spin and doesn’t need massive amounts of forgiveness.
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.
