That's a chunky spanner, is that the hot melt port slap bang in the back of the head?

Looks like it. 
 

In another thread there was talk about Titleist only doing one driving iron this refresh, a middle ground one. This ones a little chubby to be the only offering, but being labeled 505 I wonder if 500 and 510 will still be available.

I think this is this a middle-ground offering like you said. Unless players see the T200 filling the 500/510's shoes.

Also looks like the port is removed on the finished product. Kind of figured they’d clean that up out of prototype form.

Based off photos I’m a little disappointed in this one. UT or Srixon looks better.

If the sole was a few mm narrowed to keep from seeing at address and it would have been a yes for me.

Pass…I’ll stick with my U510

Same here!

[jjrussell12]

Wonder what shaft options we’ll see on this. 

[lewis17web]

That is fugly. Glad I already have a U500 4 iron.

[TLUBulldogGolf]

Not what I was hoping for looks wise.

[The Mad Bomber]

Pretty pumped that I pulled the trigger on the U500 this spring. This will fit a certain group, but it's not for me.

[Hattie Pants]

TMB looked good, u500 was doable, u510 was chunky, this thing ate ALL the biscuits 😞 

[stuart.f.cohen]

The 510 is the best club in my bag, can’t see this one being better, when will we see the rest of the new T series irons

I love the U510, not the nicest at address but the performance for me is money.  If this is slightly smaller with same performance I’m in.

[Pleasedwith3putts]

That's basically a Rapture or PXG utility clone. U500 far nicer

Chunky but funky! Swithered on getting a 510 1 iron. If the 505 comes out with that option, I am in.

[howeber]

Perfect now I can buy that U500 I was looking at 🙂

[jjrussell12]

This thing is massive but I like that there is minimal offset. The feel will be the decision maker for me. I still have the TMB 2i in the bag, I didn’t like the feel of the U500.

Oldest tenured club(s) in my bag , bettinardi blank bb8 tri and a 716 tmb 2 iron Ad di 105x hotmelted 

neither going anywhere soon 

 

the line looks impressive, like many here , the U I find clunky 

 

[BirdieBirdieX]

Yuck.

[carrier street]

I'm into the look of the T100, but I'd have to see behind the ball in person. I'm curious what a T200 3 iron would be like as a driving iron instead of a U series.

This is either the best looking hybrid or worst looking driving iron I’ve ever seen. Haven’t decided yet.

This!  Considering how good the T100 looks, the U505 is a disappointment.  That said the press pic makes the T200 look wide enough that it could be hollow - I wonder if it is meant to slide into the T-MB role as a full line of hollow irons and leave the U505 to be the hybrid replacement?

Looks like a direct competitor to the TM DHY driving iron.  Maybe Titleist will have 3 choices just like TM has in this type of lineup. 

[MCoz]

Wow. These new offerings are tremendously uninspiring to say the least. The UT is dumbfoundingly disappointing. 

The new irons look like they are trying to play off of the TaylorMade P7 series by trying to make the backside look clean and smooth. But they all look like they Have covers on the backs hiding what is supposed to have technology?? IMO they look like inexpensive "wannabies".

Big step backwards.

The thought is that the new T200’s is gonna replace the U500 and 505

just a new improved and skimmed up 510. 

[vman]

That looks fantastic. Playability from the fairway and tee....perfect.
