Tour New Titleist irons - T100 & T150 comparison - 2023 Memorial

[GolfWRX_Spotted]

[Carson33]

To my eye, it doesn’t look like the exact same footprint, but very close.

[Cactus Jack]

If the T150s are marginally larger and retain the same loft progression of the T100S, these could be perfect. Either way, I love the new look. These could be a home run.  

[stevechooster]

I love how Titleist retained the overall shape and sole design, while making the sole wider and likely having more tungsten than its skinnier T100 sibling. 

 

Can't wait to hear more about what's under the hood and see when preorders start.

I am disappointed in this release....i currently play the 2021 T100-S and they are great but what does the 150 bring to the table?  I dont even get it.....i think this release will be bad for titleist.  

[lordemsworth]

I think what's happening is that they are moving the T150 into more of the middle spot of the T100 and T200.  The T150 is slightly bigger than the T100, etc.

 

[Carson33]

We need to see a T150 PW so we can see if the lofts will be stronger or the same as T100.

 

I saw a T100 PW in a post and it had 46* loft. Cannot assume they went two degrees stronger like the previous T100S until we know for sure.

It's always tough to tell from camera angles, but this appears to be a huge hit with what they've done with the T150.   Of course this is taking in just what wee can see from the side by side pics and we know sometimes size and shapes get distorted in the process.  But I expect the T150 to be even a bigger success than the T100s as it seems it will be more clearly defined from the T100. 

[mattman]

Maybe more of a true AP2 successor than t100 then?

More differentiation from the t100 than just loft jacking

150 is 2 degrees stronger than 100.

If the T150 is indeed bigger, stronger and more forgiving than the 100, they’re going to be in so many bags. 
 

As has been mentioned, I think a lot of people didn’t really realise the differences between 100 and 100s, and many were playing the 100 without really having the game for it. The new 100 especially just looks like a blade with a little hollow in the upper part. 
 

If the 150 is totally in the middle between 100 and 200… oh boy. Gimme. Now.

Please don’t say T150 will be 2 degrees stronger through the whole set!? That was a big mistake in T100s messing up wedges.  I hope it will be progressive set like most other brands offer. A players iron, but a little bit more forgiving, a little hotter but still with P being 46* and then progressive down to 7 about 32* and 4 to 21/22*. That would be my dream set. 

[lordemsworth]

I dunno, I think the progression with consistent gaps is not really a bad thing.  If you end up getting gap wedge at 48, it's actually ok.  I think that is also one of the strengths of the King Tour - they've kept the gapping the same and end with a 44 degree PW.

 

I'm not a fan of going to 5 degrees between my 8 and 9, and then 9 and PW.  Those are supposed to be scoring clubs,, I don't want too much a gap in the bottom of the bag.

[geesecougar2]

Thanks for the pics! Possible to show a shorter iron comparison, like the 8? 

 

Really curious how far the undercut channel extends into the set on the T150.

For those that played the T100S, how did you gap the wedges? It also makes it really hard to blend T100 with T150. Not only is it 2* stronger but with the tungsten and speed slot, you hit them even further as if there was a 3* stronger club (7* gap) between say 7 iron and. 6 iron.

 

If you have 44* PW and you want to end with a 60* wedge, what two do you put in the middle? 44-50-56-60? I guess you could bend some to 44-49-55-60.

 

What did you guys do in the past?

Have to disagree, they are slightly larger, larger top line and sole it looks like, cavity looks a bit deeper as well. 
 

if they are slightly more forgiving they are going to sell a lot. 
 

They are also objectively the best looking cavity back iron released in recent memory.

looks are awesome......they made these to blend better with the T200 it seems.....not sure a bigger footprint is gonna be a love for current T100 or T100-S players.

The more I see these the more I wish the Titleist was larger for such a blank space

i only play two wedges. 4 is overkill for me. I dont rely on wedge lofts for shot making. I blame my father for this when i was younger.

Looks about the same size as the 620MB? Might look quite good in the bag together…

Yeah if the 150s is just a little chunkier by way of a slightly larger sole and therefore has more tungsten then you have a pretty ideal long iron replacement for the better player. Higher MOI, lower CG, and a slightly friendlier footprint is a win all the way around.

I have (and love) the 2021 T100-s, and it did take some trial and error to dial in wedge gaps. I ended up bending the pw 1 degree weak to 45*, ordered the set T100 gap wedge at 50*, and play 54-S grind bent to 55*, and 60-M grind. It did take some time to figure all this out and beginning of last season was pretty annoying waiting on stuff fro, Titleist. BUT, after i figured everything out and started to trust my gapping, shot consistently good scores.

I had the 9 bent one weak to 41, T100 pw at 46,50 & 54 vokeys, 58T bent one weak to 59

[schaperb90]

Pictures are so hard to judge, but am I the only one who thinks the t100 looks a touch more compact that the current t100?

I bent the 44 to 45 and I go 45, 50, 56, 60. I had the intent of bending the 56 to 55 but love it so much around the greens I don’t want to mess with it.

Thanks for all of the answers guys, but sure does seem (like I thought) to require a lot of manipulation to get gapping correct.
