  1. I was playing the TSI3 before a fitting in August 2022. I was fitted for ghe TSR2. The results were 5 yards average gain with a much tighter dispersion. The forgiveness on mishits is amazing. A great driver!
  2. I didn’t get into golf until later in life (1988) through guys I worked with. Started out with Titlest driver and went through several over the years. Taught my son the game after he stopped playing baseball. He loved it so much he went to work at the course in the pro shop and now plays all the time. So now he is the one I go to with equipment questions. I was playing the TM Stealth and was pleased with it until my son came home with the Titlest TSR after hitting his I knew I was going to change. I’m 67 still in good shape and I enjoy hitting from the senior tees. The TSR is without a doubt one of the best drivers I’ve hit. I paired mine with a Project X Hzrdus smoke Green stiff shaft. Not only is it long but the best thing, it is more consistent in staying in the fairway. Glad I made the change and the Vokey wedges are a game changer for any golfer. Needless to say I didn’t go through a fitting with this one and I’ll say my bag has the clubs I feel I hit the best. But the Titlest driver lives up to the advertisements. Love the driver, wedges, my Scotty and the ProVx ball.
    Thank you
  3. First experience with the a Titleist fitter and I was very impressed. I've always bought the clubs I thought I needed, which has worked and kept me around 12 hcp. The knowledge the fitter had was great. Fitting only took 20 minutes for driver/fairway and ended up with TSR2 and Ventus 6x black combo. Distance went from 295 to 327 which is all great. But the dispersion and mishits still like to find the fairway. Impressive!!!
  4. I added the TSr 2 driver to my badge because it is faster and more forgiving than the TSI 2 I was currently playing I hit the new driver with the new Tour AD UB 5 Stiff flex and it create a faster ball speed by 4 miles an hour that is Lee 15 yards gained for me.

    TSR1 Driver - two words: Light and Fast...

    More accurate and consistent distance.
  6. I am one month from 77 years old and 9 handicap. Went to golftec fitting with a 25 year old driver I made and always hit well. I tried the Taylor Made, Cobra and only hit a few yards farther than my old Driver but only when hit well. My pro said by those results he said he couldn’t recommend spending $700 for a new driver. He then said some of the better players who swing well similar to me really liked the Tltleist TSR 3 and let me hit a few. I really loved the feel and feedback but what convinced me to buy was that I hit 5 balls 2 of which were not real solid contact but all of the balls were within 2 yards of each other. The Taylor Made and Cobra when not solid contact dropped off 10 to 15 yards shorter when not solid contact. It convinced me to buy the TSR3 when I was ready to walk out with my old driver. A bonus is that it was $100 cheaper than the Taylor Made I thought I wanted. On the actual golf course it is amazingly consistent and think I have picked even 5 to 10 yards more. Some of that may be my switch to the prov1x left dash but the consistency and great feel + feedback has me a great supporter of the TSR3 as well as my switch to prov1x left dash. Love them.

    I did a TSR fitting on October 25, 2023. My current gamer was a TM Stealth. During the fitting, I saw immediate improvements! My fitter started me out on a TSR2 and my ball speed jumped up on average 6-7 mph to the low 160s. Dispersion was also improved.

    I’m a player that has such a positive AoA so my ball goes so high that I lose some distance. My fitter had me try a TSR3 head and my ball flight height dropped on average 15-20ft which increased my distance about 10-15 yards.

    I saw significant improvements from the TSR compared to my stealth. My fitter and I settled on the TSR3 8 degree loft in the B2 setting with a Hzrdus Black 60g stiff shaft. Super pleased with the driver and my Titleist fitting experience. My fitter asked a lot of questions and allowed to me try several different combinations until we found the right fit for me!

    My Titleist driver migration was 917, TS, TSi, and now TSR. I have a TSR3 with a 65g Graphite Design AD DI stiff shaft. I want fitted, but I just knew that it was going to be a winner for my bag and it has been. Center hits give a superb feeling and off- center hits provide nice distance as well. Keep up the great work Titleist. I'm certainly looking forward to what comes next in the Titleist driver lineup!

  10. I hadn’t had a Titleist driver since my 975J and then went to a Taylor Made Super Quad. When the TSR came out I loved the old school look and size of the head. Went and test drove it, got fitted and couldn’t leave the shop without it. Love the feel the added legit length and looking to replace my 4 wood 7 wood and hybrid. Best driver out there by far! I’m fifty and play with guys 10-15 years younger and still will blast it by them or right in their heels.
  11. I purchased my TSR2 driver around July 1 after demoing it at my golf club, comparing to my gamer at the time, a png G425. In my testing comparison, the TSR2 had less deviation and was 5-10 yards longer. Now that I’ve played it for a while, I absolutely love this club. I hit more fairways (averaging 10) and the drives are consistently longer than with my old driver, probably averaging 10 yards longer. Since purchasing the driver, I’ve also purchased a TSR2 4 hybrid, which is also awesome. In September, after an iron fitting, I purchased T350 4-6, T200 7-9, and T150 P and 48 degree wedge. I am very happy with all of them, although I wish I would have gone with at least the 9 iron in the T150, if not even more. Love that club. I think this year’s club releases have to be one of Titleist’s best ever.

    My interest was piqued when I tried a friend's TSR3 and I couldn't get over the sound, so I went to my trusted club fitter and the rest is history.

    I've been playing the 9* TSR3 for about 3 months and absolutely love the performance, sound, and feel of this driver! For me, this driver head gives great feedback through feel and sound, whether the ball is low-spin and completely flushed or spinny from off-center strikes. Never-mind the clean and minimalist look...Simply put, it's really beautiful when it's fresh and new.

    Now, we must acknowledge the shaft is the other crucial piece to the build - I was fit into the UST Mamiya LIN-Q Blue M40X (Xstiff); my efficiency numbers went through the roof and I gained clubhead speed from harmonizing my swing with the right shaft. If it helps anyone for reference, my swing speed is around 115mph and it's becoming more frequent that I see up to about 320 yards when smash is 1.47+ and spin is 1,900rpm.

    Is there a downside? Well, the glossy paint/finish seems to be a bit fragile. Mine has collected several scratches on the sole from (wooden) tees and it even picked up a small dent in the crown (while it was in the headcover) from bag chatter. Before you assume, it's certainly not from being careless...I'm incredibly meticulous with caring for my golf equipment. Maybe a matte finish would help hide some aesthetic blemishes more easily?

    Overall, TSR3 is an A+ driver and I would highly recommend it to anyone that is looking to get optimized performance. Go get fit, because optimal does not come from a stock shaft/build!

    I recently put the TSR3 driver in the bag. 9 degree with a Ventus Black TR 7X shaft. The TSR3 improved my dispersion while maintaining average distance. The sound is pleasant to the ear and mishits provide good forgiveness with minimal loss of distance with off-center hits. The consistency of ball flight, dispersion, and solid feel at impact are just a few reasons I play the TSR3.

    The traditional look of the club head is what you would expect from Titleist with the glossy black finish. The shape of the club head inspires confidence at address and the rear CG track gives that extra bit of shot shape control needed to help minimize a miss or reinforce a preferred shot shape.

    For me the T2 setting helps ensure that I regularly hit a slight fade and protect against the dreaded hook. Thank you Titleist for providing the best equipment in the business.

    Got fitted for a driver early last March by Adam Miller, Director of Golf at Verandah in Fort Myers (who is on staff). My gamer was the TSi2 with the Hzrdous smoke stiff shaft. We tried the TSR2, but surprisingly ended up in the TSR3 (same shaft) which was a little longer but more importantly better dispersion and faster ball speed. This was followd by a Team Titleist fitting for the full set about a month later with John Dal Santo, who did a spectacular job with me. He validated the TSR3 selection for the driver. Long story short, I ended up with TSR2 3w, 5w, 4h, 5h, all with the Hzrdous Red Smoke shaft. We then moved on to irons. Ended up in the T100S 6-P + GW and 52 and 54 Vokey wedges to round out the set. Knowing that T150's were right around the corner, I got re-fit with Adam once they released and WOW!

    The TSR series are fantastic additions to the lineup and am so happy I made these selections.
    They perform as advertised for me. Faster, more accurate and longer distance. VERY happy.
  15. I have been using my tsr driver about 7 months now. It’s a beast. Hit 14 fairways today right down the middle and deep. Very happy with my Titleist products. Andy Chavez

    I wanted to upgrade from the TS as well as my TSI clubs and I was not disappointed in that choice at all! I really did not expect to gain anymore distance or accuracy from the switch but man was I wrong to say the least! I am now gaming the TSR 3 with that 65g 1K BLACK by MITSUBISHI and it is a BEAST!!!!
  17. I switched to the TSR3 with the Hzrdus Green 6.5 TX shaft. Control and feel are exceptional.
    I also swing the TSR4 from time to time. I put the heavy weight in the back. It produces slightly less spin than the TSR 3 on average. The numbers do overlap a bit though.
    I enjoy the shape and how easy it is to find the center of the face on both clubs. Best drivers for distance and control.

    TSR3 Driver, 40gm shaft, Regular Flex, TSR2 3 Metal, 40gm shaft, Regular Flex, and TSR2 21*. Increased club head speed by 5mph resulting in an additional 15-20yds. Looks and feels great. I am 71 and thanks to technology, I've only lost a few yards. T300 irons 5, 6, and 7, 2023 T200 irons 8, 9, PW all graphite shaft regular. Vokey SM9 48, 52, 56, and 60. Scotty Newport 2.5 and Titleist AVX balls. I can still shoot an occasional mid 70 round and loving the game I started playing 50 years. Thank you Titleist. Keep up the good work.

    Let's hear your thoughts, Team Titleist!

    *Please note: to keep this thread clean, any responses to this thread that isn't a first-person experience testing new TSR metals will be moved to a more appropriate discussion topic. 

    I have recently had a Titleist fitting and changed my png G425SFT driver for the Titleist TSR1 driver. The greater distance and forgiveness was much more than I had anticipated. This new driver will definitely improve confidence off the tee and see more consistent longer straighter drives.
  20. I have played Titleist drivers starting with the 975. I love the clean look at address and performance has always been great. The sound and feel are the best in the business. Every time a new model is launched I think “it can’t possibly be any better” and every time it is. I had the 913, 917, TS, and TSi. My son plays competitive JR golf and he started using my TSi and I went back to my TS. My birthday is around the same time as Father’s Day so my family surprised my with the TSR3, I love it! The consistency is amazing, best driver I have ever hit, my son will soon have one in his bag too.
