Total sidebar but did anyone order the golfpride blackout grips? I ordered them on my new set and they look pretty cool. 

Good to hear, I also ordered those.

In a sea of speculative and subjective comments, yours is standing out as particularly presumptuous and misguided. Not a personal dig, but you don't need to keep fighting back as different people raise their eyebrow to your post, and your follow-up, and your follow-up to the follow-up.

It's all good, if it's not for you it's not for you! But I don't think extrapolating your thoughts to others is working out so well.

It’s a forum, we discuss our thoughts!  Your post is a nice way of poking a bear.  You are right it is a “sea of speculative and subjective comments” which is why we are here and what makes this Golf Forum the best!

What do these black out grips look like?

 

Nevermind lol. Already have a Titleist hybrid with that grip 😂

Couldn't get the blackout grips in midsize grips without an up charge for some reason. Went with the grey cap midsized. Also glad that the Modus 120 were no up charge as well.

Yes I ordered the 105 and had always traditionally been an upcharge (quite substantial for a relatively basic steel shaft) and was surprised it was no upcharge. 

 

The grips are just tour velvets but have nothing written and on them and are entirely black lol, nothing revolutionary they just look way cooler than I expected for some reason.

I ordered late in the day after my fitting on 8/2. Just delivered this morning. Less than a week turnaround time from order to delivery. Pretty damn good. Well done Titleist!!! 

Like the good ol’ days! 🙌🏼

[CallawayLefty]

T100 4-pw ordered at 5:00 pm on 8/3. Just received notice that they have been listed as shipped.  Unreal turnaround time!

[Carolina Golfer 2]

Just ordered T200/150 combo this am.  Wondering why I haven’t seen a shipping notice.   What’s up with that 😂😂

[hoselshot82]

Can someone with the t150 give me some insight and comparable for the sole width?

[tacticalpanda]

Little frustrating seeing all these orders shipped so quickly.  I ordered mine 7/17 hard stepped at D4 swing weight, which was apparently a bad choice.  Still waiting on them to ship.

Still trying to find an outdoor Titleist fitting that in general. Also for those that have been fit discussing spin numbers, did you use Tour level balls or Sim/range balls 

[cjb66]

I got fitted 2 days ago in Sweden and will probably order a full T200 (5 - pw) set.

The shaft I was fitted to was Px IO with AMT Black as a contender, what are your thoughts about those 2 shafts?

I was surprised to see a real Titleist fitting in my area coming up.  But I chatted with Titleist and they said they use the range balls at the course.  Which kind of sucks TBH b/c that range is garbage.

I have the AMT black S300 in my T300s, nice solid shaft, I sometimes worry that the Ascending Mass Technology is either, a help or hindrance though.

Never tried a Project X shaft myself.

 

Will see what I get to test and play with today anyway, going for an impromptu "fitting" to test them all out, will report back.

My 6/7 T150 arrived yesterday, right in the bag for a charity scramble, they are fantastic. A bit more help than my 100S, but look better, feel better and a bit smaller sole than my T200

[br61]

My T150 5-48* w/AMT Black S300 was supposed to be delivered yesterday but got delayed by Fedex to today. It kinda stinks because yesterday was a beautiful day and now we're having heavy storms. Not in any hurry anyway.

 

I had my pro order them through his rep about 3 weeks or so ago.

Where are you located?   

 

At my fitting we used ProV1's  

[Pens #1 fan]

Pittsburgh, but I’m FLA. Orlando and Daytona Beach until 8/20

[Copacetic]

Really impressed with all the new irons after fitting,  surprised at some of the feedback that people aren’t seeing much difference. New 100, similar performance to current ones, but much more solid feel and reduced footprint, look pretty much like my 620CB. 150, leagues ahead of 100s, more solid feel, with really increased forgiveness, it’s in a whole other category as they planned it I guess.  200, way more solid that current model, really playable. I had no reason to use 100s previously but the 150 is too good to leave out, so I’m looking at 3 models in my build at the moment.

Thanks, I played AMT Black S300 back in 2019 with my AP3 so I know it's nice shaft, but I had better numbers with Px IO on the fitting with i7.

Also talked today with my pro about the shafts and if the AMT tech will be noticeable for me on pw and i5 compared to the IO shaft, he didn't think there would be much of a difference since those two shaft has the same profile, he also recommended me to go with the IO since I had better numbers with that on the fitting.

 

Today I play a Rifle 105 in my Callaway clubs, so I'm currently used to a 105g shaft.

I currently game the 2021 T200 with AMT Black (Stiff). IMO, they launch way to high for me but your mileage may vary. They do feel good when you button it but are a little too light for me.

Anyone got pics of the blackout grip offering.

About me: 3-5 handicap, playing a couple times a month right now but will be joining somewhere in the next year or two since moving south. 97-99mph 7 iron, low 130’s ball speed. Looking for a little help but also want precision at the bottom of the bag. What does everyone think of this setup?

 

currently in p770 2020 version and looking for better turf interaction. Please no 150/200 combo, the only 200 I’d put in the bag would be a 3iron utility build.

 

 

4 21° T150 (1° strong) , semi driving iron on long courses and don’t mind the gap between 4 and 5

5 25° T150

6 29° T150 (1° weak)

7 33° T150 (1° weak)

8 37° T100 (1° strong)

9 41° T100 (1° strong)

PW 45° T100 (1° strong)

I don’t play 4/5, have a 7w and 5H, but am playing the T150 6/7, paired with the 21 T100S in 8-G. I am only 1 round in with the T150, but this combo set will be in the bag for a long time.

 

I am guessing I will get bored over winter and get the 8-G in T150 also, just to have the 3 full sets of 21 T100s, 21 T200 and the 150, May sell the T200 to my buddy.

Are you keeping your T-350's?

For me, the bottom end matters most.

 

I went T150 PW 2 degrees weak at 46. That bought me the gapping i wanted between PW and my 50 Vokey gap.

Not sure if this concerns you, but personally I cannot play irons with offset being off like that.  In your proposed setup, your scoring clubs will have more offset than long clubs (in relation to each offset numbers)

If you are going this route, I would get T100 pw at 46, then T150 weak all the way through other than your 4i.  
Or PW-8 T100 and then T150 1 weak.

Ha... I figured one of you eagle eyes would pick up on that.   But yes, absoutely keeping the 350.  I ordered the 7 and 8 n the T200 and the 9 and P in 150.   I plan to try a combo mixing and matching what ever works best.  if the 7 and 8 don't work out, I'll just go 5-8 in the 350 and maybe 9/P 150   

 

The reason is I use my current PW a lot for shot pitches and chips around the green, usually 50 yards and in.   so having something that's a bit smaller and softer on those shots appeals to me.  

[ck800]

still waiting on a 7/25 order for a t200 utility 2 iron, my guess is it's the 6.5 flex stock shaft holding it up

I did mine at a Team Titleist fitting at a course. The fitter had bags and bags of ProV1s, ProV1Xs, and maybe AVX. Not sure about the AVX since I only hit the ProV1s and saw the bag of Xs. The only time I hit range balls was warming up waiting for him to finish with the previous client.
