Our Titleist TS1 driver review took place at Leeds Golf Centre, where we met Titleist fitter James Robinson to find out all about the new addition to the Speed Project family.
We have already seen a large number of tour players put the Titleist TS drivers in their bags this season, but with the TS1 driver Titleist aim to provide something different.

Titleist TS1 driver review: First Impressions
This driver is the newest addition to Titleist’s Speed Project range where the focus has been ball speed and distance gains. The TS1 is an interesting move from Titleist as it is designed for moderate swing speeds players. This means it has a completely different target audience to the clubs they usually design with tour players in mind.
Titleist now have four drivers in the TS range and are aiming to have a driver to suit everyone’s game. The new Titleist TS1 has the same size head as the TS2 and 3 at 460cc. But is slightly larger than the 430cc head offered in the TS4.
It is a complete contrast from the recently released Titleist TS4. The TS4 is designed to produce high ball speed whilst having ultra-low spin. In contrast the new TS1 is designed to increase launch angle and add spin to allow players with slower ball speeds to achieve maximum carry distances.
Titleist TS1 driver review: The Technology
The TS1 offers the same technology found throughout the Titleist TS family but in an incredibly light 275-gram design. The weight of TS1 has been reduced to help players maximise launch angle and distance at moderate swing speeds.
The 275-gram design is an incredible 45 grams lighter than the TS2 model. The eight-gram lighter head weight is designed to help players generate faster clubhead speeds, while 20 grams has been saved by replacing the standard grip with an extremely light 32-gram Golf Pride Tour Velvet 360 Lite grip.
