please provide any information on the difference. Including details on if any are more linear feeling vs mid soft or load/unload.

I wrote a huge thing but I didn't want to derail the thread any further, so I PM'd you. 👍

After my excitement for the new Callaway irons was killed by the MRSP, I just lit a candle for those to be somewhat affordable. I mean, wood prices have gone up across the industry but I wish these dont get a massive increase in prize vs TS

I was fit for the new TSi lineup last week.  My usual driver numbers:  Ball speed avg 165, launch 12-12.5º, 2800 rpm

 

Driver:  TS3 to TSi3 picked up 2 mph, similar launch, BUT dropped about 300 rpm avg.  Picked up about 10 yds carry and the land angle was shallower leading to more roll out.  Happy?  Yes, but what was more thrilling was very little loss of speed on heel shots (my miss) and it didn't spin to the moon.  VERY CONSISTENT.  Did not hit the TSi2 because I don't like the look of it.

 

Fairway:  TS3 16.5º to TSi2 15º picked up 3 mph, similar launch and spin... now 160 ball speed, 3000 rpm off tee, 3200 rpm off deck.  Fairways are great in every aspect.  Personally liked the look of the TSi2 fwy over the 3.  More forgiving and consistent.  The TSi3 reminded me of the old PT metal fwys... small, compact, lots of bulge and roll visual.  It was a rocket off the tee, but I carry one fwy and want the "jack of both trades" for the tee ball and off the deck.

 

Fitted into the new Tensei White Raw 65 and 75g X for the driver and fwy respectively.

What was the comparison to your ts3 fwy to the tsi2 and tsi3

Faster ball speed for sure on both TSi fairways.  The TSi2 15* for me was a better version of my TS3 16.5* in terms of numbers, and I never thought my TS3 would leave the bag.  The TSi3 was a rocket off the tee but was too low launching off the deck even with the 16.5* head.

It's a great option for some but too high launch and too much spin for me.  Fellow PGA pro has a TS2 #7 fwy with a Whiteboard 90X and hits it about like my hybrid.  Wish I could.

Well.. I got to hit the TSi3 driver and fairway today.. I am impressed..very..the feel and sound are amazing for a titleist driver. It is very low spin.

 

i struggled a bit with the fairway as I did not have a stout enough shaft. So I was hooking it. But it felt amazing as well.

 

the sound is muted and perfect.

So looking forward to the Tsi3 abailability. After my last round though, most would think that I'm absolutely crazy to trade in my TS3. Can't imagine anything  being any better really, and I still have a 917d3 that I also didn't need to replace(?). If the sound of the TS3 wasn't so offputting to me, I probably wouldn't consider it, but the sound is (suppose) to be improved, and the look is definitely improved so here goes as soon as it hit's the shelves.

The sound is really good.

Still a beast I see! No way you should be a 5 handi with numbers like that! 😃

Thanks for the review and pics.

Jesus. 348 carry? 
 

how is that smoke RDX. What exactly is it supposed to do? I love my smoke black 60g now.  Curious what is different about it.

It’s good. From what I understand, the materials are supposed to be lighter so that can add more and increase stability.

 

i was putting up my best numbers with the tensei white raw..x flex.

1) Want to play in scrambles sometime?  Don’t worry my shot game is solid

2)  AV Raw in X because they do not have TX correct?

Wondering the same thing. X or TX... Thought TX was an option?

Someone that gets paid to play thought they were worthy at Winged Foot

I tried the X as that is what was available. TX would be fun to try.

I like it. It feel better than the previous smoke, it is stable but active as well.

I honestly like the smoke green better than the smoke black. Black felt dead to me

This feels more like the green. The smoke black felt heavy and dead to me. Even at lighter weights.

Love mine. The smoke black that is. Damn, 348 carry, i still can’t process.  I’m a 5 and get 250-260 carry.  But putting and wedges are my game.

Do hybrids drop with the next iron cycle?
