Just for a quick reminder of the previous edition of Titleist T-Series irons‘ key features:
- High-density tungsten in T200 irons;
- Progressive set design in T100, T200 & T300 irons;
- Max Impact technology delivers maximum speed and distance control. – T300 irons;
- High-density tungsten (with an average of 52 grams placed in the heel and toe of the mid and long irons) produces a low CG for a higher, easy launch. – T300 irons.
- Mid-sized, fast cavity-back design is designed for maximum distance and forgiveness. – T300 irons.
Let’s see what they have renewed or left unchanged in the new Titleist T-Series irons.
The new Titleist T-Series irons include four models – T100, T100•S, T200, and T300 – which will be available for fittings beginning today and available in golf shops globally on August 26.
T100 irons – ‘players’ irons’
- Better Tungsten for Better Balance: Utilizing a denser version of tungsten (D18) weights in the heel and toe of the 3-7 irons for greater mass efficiency, and a brazing process used in aerospace construction, Titleist engineers were able to eliminate weld points and be even more precise with CG placement and produce high MOI in a ‘player’s iron.’
- True Temper AMT Tour White (Ascending Mass Technology: 3g per club (106-130g)) or MCA Tensei White AM2 (Ascending Mass Technology: 2g per club (94-108g)).
- Golf Pride Tour Velvet 360 with white paint fill and black flat cap.
- Price: $186 MAP/club and $1,299 MAP/7-piece set (Steel)
T100•S irons – the faster tour iron
- Same Tour Shape. Only Faster: The new T100•S head dimensions exactly match the specs of the T100, with the exception of being engineered – not bent – 2* stronger. The T100•S features the same fully forged face, backed by an innovative Muscle Channel that adds both speed and launch. At impact, the T100s feels amazingly similar to the T100 with the only difference being added distance.
- Better Tungsten for Better Performance: Utilizing denser D18 tungsten weights and a brazing process used in aerospace construction, the T100•S irons feature the same precise CG calibration as T100. Weight savings from the Muscle Channel are shifted to produce even lower CG and higher launch, resulting in outstanding MOI and increased ball speed from a solid, fully forged design.
- Refined for Greater Consistency: Like the T100, the new T100•S face features a continuous cradle construction that creates a seamless striking surface and more uniform leading edge. A proven, fully forged, dual cavity supports the face construction. The 3 through 7-iron faces were redesigned to impart slightly more spin for improved shot-shaping and increased control. The 8-W are forged with one-piece 1025 carbon steel.
- Project X LZ steel featured shaft or MCA Tensei White AM2 (graphite; Ascending Mass Technology: 2g per club (94-108g))
- Golf Pride Tour Velvet 360 with white paint fill and black flat cap.
- $186 MAP/club and $1,299 MAP/7-piece set (Steel)
T200 – The Tour’s distance iron
- Power Packed Design: Every component of the multi-material hollow body construction contributes to the long, consistent distance of the T200. The improved Max Impact Technology (Max Impact 2.0) now includes a core support design and an enhanced high resilience polymer core that improves both off-center speed and mass efficiency at impact across a forged, high COR SUP-10 L-Face Insert.
- Multi-Material Body: An engineered muscle plate contributes to precision sound tuning and saves weight which is optimized in the new, streamlined 17-4 chassis. A shorter blade length, less offset (same as T100), narrower topline and thinner sole, provides a tour-inspired look and feel while delivering maximum speed and distance.
- Utilizing denser D18 tungsten weights in the 3-7 irons for greater mass efficiency, and a brazing process used in aerospace construction, Titleist engineers were able to position the CG more precisely for maximum benefit in every club – from fast, forgiving, high launching long and mid irons to accurate, precise short irons.
- True Temper AMT Black (steel; 3g per club (95-116g)) or MCA Tensei Blue AM2 (graphite; 2g per club (74-88g))
- Golf Pride Tour Velvet 360 with white paint fill and black flat cap
- $186 MAP/club and $1,299 MAP/7-piece set (Steel)
T300 – game improvement iron
- Locked behind the T300 badge lies a hidden power source – Max Impact 2.0. A Cantilever Core Support Structure features a new high resilience polymer core, delivering maximum speed and distance control.
- The high-density tungsten (D18) weights are utilized in the heel and toe of the 4-7 irons for greater mass efficiency. In addition, Titleist engineers were able to add 40% more tungsten than was in the previous generation T300 through a brazing process applied from aerospace construction usually reserved for Tour-played irons.
- The T300 now employs a High COR Variable Face Design that is thinner towards the heel in the long and mid irons to improve performance at what is traditionally one of the least effective strike points.
- True Temper AMT Red (steel; 3g per club (95-107g)) or MCA Tensei Red AM2 (graphite; 2g per club (54-68g))
- Golf Pride Tour Velvet 360 with white paint fill and black flat cap.
- $143 MAP/club and $999 MAP/7-piece set (Steel)
