Titleist 2023 irons

[4TheKing614]

I’m looking for a picture of the new  t200 7 iron at address. Thinking about them. Want to know what they look like, any help would be appreciated

I wonder if it will be harder to blend the t150 and 100 than it was the 100s and 100. If sole width is different between the new models it might change my mind to go back and look at the last gen.

They really are only different in the 4 and 5 from what my fitter said.

I was fitted for 4-5 T 150 and 6-pw T100. The T150's were bent 1 degree weaker.

I don’t see them being hard to blend at all but it will also depend on how far up or down you want to blend the set. I could have easily went with the T100’s through the full set but the higher spin with the 150’s sold me on just playing them 5-PW and going T200 4. I don’t often say fittings are worth the money if you tinker with clubs a lot like I do but I can say for this run of T series irons it was well worth the time.

I was fit for the new lineup today, like many others here I loved the t150.  Unlike the t100-s, the t150 are much more of a game improvement progression club, and not just a lofted down t100.  They are noticeably longer than the t100 (as others have said, similar to 718 ap2).  I’m a low ball hitter but got similar descent angle between the t150 and t100.  I’m going with 4 in t200 and 5-gw in t150, all bent 1* weak.

 

The biggest surprise to me was the t200.  I don’t have the most discerning eye, but standing over the 7i I couldn’t tell a difference between t150 and t200.  The feel was much improved over the 2021 t200.  My 7i swing speed is in the low 80s, and I saw a few 185+ yard carry shots with the t200.

Funny that, I'd say I also don't have the most discerning eye and couldn't tell the difference between 100 and 150 but 200 was obviously different. All do look good though!

I had my fitting this afternoon at Moray GC with Roddy from Titleist. Hugely impressed. 

 

I currently have 2019 T100's with Project X LZ 6.0. I have liked them but quite often felt that I have not gotten as much out of them as I did when compared to my old 714 AP2's. My two issues were a lack of distance (getting older sucks) and then when I tried to make up for that by going at it harder, any extra effort resulted in more spin than distance. 

 

We began with using just what had been there before with the head changed over. Numbers were fine, peak height and descent was great but the ball was spinning and wanting to climb up into the air. We then flipped from Project X LZ to KBS Tour and the first thing was that the feel was great. Like going back to an old faithful. We then moved on to try the T150 and as soon as I hit it, I knew that was where I was going to end up. Height was consistent, carry was consistent and the spin was just not there like it was with my current set. After going through some combinations at the bottom and top of the bag we ended up going as follows:-

 

4 Iron - T200

5-PW - T150 with the PW bent one degree weak to 45 degrees

 

Thoroughly impressed and part of me is thinking, whilst I have enjoyed the T100's, I seem to have gone back to AP2 and why did I ever change? 😂

 

In terms of the clubs themselves, there is a definitely a difference and noticeable difference between the T100 and T150. The T150 is just that bit chunkier and honestly, having come to realise my ability and the benefit of some extra help, it did not bother me at all. The progression between the T150 to the T200 was very smooth and I can see there being a huge amount of T150/200 combo sets showing up in the bags of single digit handicaps and up.

Anyone playing the ‘21 T100-S make the switch to T150s? I’m struggling to really understand what the difference is besides the 4/5 iron being slightly larger. I find the T100-S long irons pretty forgiving and easy to launch already.

This was my fear. I use the 125 in my irons and if there is more than the TM upcharge I think I'm good.

Does anyone know if Titleist offers fitters head-only pricing? Perhaps that could help cushion the up-charge because otherwise paying full price + upcharge for MMT puts these at over $300/head and a good $500-$600 more than the equivalent from TM

Tell me more! I use a U505 2i and love it. 

Cleaner cavity and what appeared to be a slightly smaller profile than the prior version.  I perceived a bit less offset also.  

 

Only hit the 3 iron, but it was a rocket launcher.  Sounded a bit "tingy" if that makes sense.

Not that I'm aware of, no.

 Boys we got ‘em. 

[mikehill06]

If anyone has the T150's, can you compare blade length and profile to the 2019 T100 and T100s?

They are *super surprising* in terms of forgiveness in the long iron. One of my biggest surprises of the year was that I hit the 4/5i in the T100S way more consistent and better than my i230s.

Anyone know the official order date?  There are over 40 people here in this thread who already ordered but what about normal humans?

That is exactly the set up I went with - T200 4 iron and T150 5-PW.

 

Rep is hopeful that they will be with me before the end of the month!

This might not be official but the Pro who arranged my fitting with Titleist yesterday mentioned when I was speaking to him this morning said that the release date was beginning August and they have their standard fitting event booked in for the 8th of August so sometime around then? I am in the UK though, so who knows?!

Preorders are supposed to begin the first week of August and release the last week of August.

I'm sure they'll hit the site once the embargo ends Aug 3 and all the reviews start pouring in

 It's amazing how many people have these irons. Three sales guys at my Golf Galaxy, four sales guys and managers at my PGA tour superstore, a high school aged kid who is the son of the pro at my local Muni, some guy on the range yesterday… All have their orders fulfilled already. Kind of a weird trickling release if you "know a guy".  The guy at the Muni said that the rep did him a favor and turned in an order for him.

You can order them through DD right now.

Did my fitting at a Titleist day (one of the ones from the team Titleist email blast).

 

T100 was functionally unchanged, though did have a bit easier getting the club out of the turf because of what they say is changed heel/sole relief. T150 was just a touch bigger, as others said, similar in chassis to AP2, which was great for a longer iron. T200 looked a bit sleeker than the last generation from address, and definitely had a nicer back plate and nicer sound/feel.

 

One of the things is they said that these were designed, and the fitters were more or less told, that people really should be fitting into combo sets. We talked a lot about ball speed jumps as a meaningful measure of gapping, which for a long time has made a lot of sense to me. I would hit 123 mph 7 iron ball speed, so the 5i got me to that 135 number, and the 4i got me to 141. I was worried hybrid wouldn't keep speed as much as a 5w, but the hybrid was getting 147mph ball speed for me, so the gapping/spacing is going to be really nice once they arrive.

 

With that in mind, I went T100 PW-6, T150 5, and T200 4, then will try out a TSR3 3 hybrid. I was told 2 weeks to delivery!

I'm still rockin' the 718 AP2's, with the talk of the 150's being very comparable to the AP2's, would love to see a pic of the two together.

Sounds like you were in a similar situation as I was. The 4 iron ball speed was getting too close to my 816 hybrid. I ended up dropping the hybrid in favor of adding a wedge. Most courses in So Cal really favor more wedges over 210 plus clubs. 

[Jag80]

To the question about clubs being delivered now..Rep said clubs are being shipped as orders are received. So anyone getting fitted earlier than release date will get clubs shipped as they are assembled.

Finally got to see the t150 and t200. I got to hit them. They weren’t the right shaft. Im definitely a t150 guy. Didn’t love the feel. I blame the shaft. Ironically i had an apex pro with the right shaft and loved it. More testing to come with t150. All I know is today I would have went apex pro. Glad there are great options out there
