Titleist T150s are gonna be all-timers

[MtlJeff]

I'm still really liking the irons. I took a video of me hitting some 7 irons the other day in my clubs new simulator bay. I think it illustrates in a sense what i like so much about them. I hit 6 shots, 2 of them are pushes, and 4 of them are draws i like to typically hit. But the 2 pushes went the exact same distance , and the 4 draws went the exact same distance. 

 

The launch is a bit different on a couple of the shots. Which i think shows you don't have to hit the club perfect, a little thin or a little high on the face, you can get a very consistent result. 

 

Plus, they are very sexy in the bag....which is good for me, since both my swing and me myself are ugly...

Don’t be so hard on yourself. This video is practically dripping sex appeal! It’s almost NSFW.

 

Glad to hear all the positive reviews. I still plan on grabbing a set of these in the spring. I will come on here all pumped about it and everyone else will have just moved on to some other shiny new thing. Timing impeccable as per usual.

I can promise you (this is big for me!) i'll still be playing them in the spring haha. I mean i can usually guarantee at least 9 months of usage

 

I also just bought Titleist woods and the LinksLegend bag.....i'm doing the whole poser thing. 

 

So i gotta run with this a bit

Getting great distance and 3-4 of them ended up in about a 4 foot circle.

 

how are those coming in decent angle wise?  Do you have any issues holding a green?

I typically hit a lowish ball and spin is like 5500 with a 7 iron. It's not optimal, but I rarely have problems with anything 6 iron and up. Our greens run about 10-10.5 and are pretty big. 

 

I'm switching to a Prov1x to try and help. The ball I'm using here is a Prov1

 

One of my swings, like the 4th one I think, had optimal launch. But that is the rarity

This. It’s evolutionary not revolutionary, although they do look way better to me at least than the previous T100S slightly thicker top line suits my eye, but I am currently gaming the new T200 mainly because I tried a lighter shaft and it’s suiting me. Hard to say if that shaft in the 150’s wouldn’t be just as good. 

 

However, is it true T150 are slightly wider soles v T100S?  I played T100S for a season and felt just slight misses heavy were severely punished due to thin soles.  So I went to PXG which had very similar profile but slightly wider soles and that helped a lot.  But oh those T150 irons... They sure are calling my name!

I had both sets for a bit and I couldn’t tell a difference in the T150 beyond shape being squared in the sole. They are pretty thin, with sharp leading edges. I honestly have no complaints about my T200 set and find those soles more similar to older T100S soles, definitely a little wider

Slightly larger soles, but still sharp leading edge and relatively flat with little bounce.  All pxgs soles will have significantly more bounce.

I had a fitting this morning at Club Champion and I ended up in the T150’s with KBS C Taper 130X. The focus of the fit was bringing the flight and spin down from my current T100 irons. The fitter had a printout of PGA tour averages and their average peak height with 6 iron is 90 feet. I was consistently in the 115 ft range and over 120 when the face was left open. Descent angle of around 48 and 6k spin. I have a shallow angle of attack and not much shaft lean. The fitter joked that I could probably back up a 4 iron. When I focused on leading with the hands a bit more, the flight came down substantially. Need to keep working on that. 
 

I have always been anti stronger lofted irons because I really don’t want more distance but the numbers were hard to argue with. The 44 degree PW is probably going to mess with my wedge gapping but the fitter said I could come down and do a follow up gapping session to see if it makes sense to weaken lofts a degree or so. 
 

This was the 3rd iron fit that I’ve done and it was hands down the best fit I’ve had. I have had one absolute nightmare fit where the guy was obviously just trying to sell me the most expensive shafts he could and another where the fitter basically said, your clubs are fine and didn't really try hard to find something better.

I was really happy with the feel of the T150’s and thought the size was perfect. Really looking forward to getting them in a couple of weeks.

Yea fair, i think to super high end ball strikers the T100’s  can do more than you need, they have tons of tungsten. (Have 2021 t100’s)

 

Ultimately I think the T100/T150 addresses a huge market of the “better players” but no business playing blades world. 
 

Sounds like you should check out the Titleist CB? It’s a no frills traditional iron, lofts etc.

Yea that’s a good shout. I like the look of the CB, but I’ve never hit them. Their MPF rating is basically identical to my mp60s. When titleist comes out to do fittings at my club next year I think I’m going to do it. 
 

I’d like 8-P in the CB and 6-8 (1 strong) in the T150. That’s at least what would be comparable to my current setup.

 

itll be tough though because the 921 JPX forged is a great iron.

Seeing tons of T150 sets on ebay. Are people just buying them and then figuring out it's not for them?

I think when people see them listed in the “players distance” category, being compared to P790s, MP 225s, etc. they don’t realize how much smaller and more intimidating they are to look down at until they’re out on the course and lose a bunch of confidence on the tee box

I had a similar experience being fitted for the T150. Went from T100/X100 to T150/PX 6.5 for better spin control. The extra distance wasn't really something I was looking for. Fitter helped with gapping at the bottom end of the bag, 44* PW isn't a huge concern anymore.

It's also winter so people unload equipment this time of year since they aren't playing and need money for the holidays.

I'm getting ready to order my T150s and need to make a decision on the gap wedge. Can anyone share their experience with either of these options?

 

Option 1: Order T150 gap wedge and bend 1 degree weak to 49*; to go with 54* and 58* wedges

Option 2: Bend current 50* MG3 wedge 1 degree strong 

 

My gap wedge is a go-to club that I use often for layup par 5s and shorter par 4s. It's mostly a full swing club, but I also use it to chip around the greens when I have a lot of room between me and the flag.

[iNeedMoreGolf]

Anyone play these with a slower swing speed. My driver is 95 to 100 so not sure what that compares to 7 iron. But id guess on the tad bit slower side of average maybe? So how would that fit into the 150. I play other players irons with good results.. would the 150 be even better? Would i slightly gain yards?... i play  callaway 18mb.. zx7 og.. mizuno mp5... mizuno mmc20.. all with good results but just want a tad more distance. I might just go with T200..but curious.

Buy a t100 gw. Standard 50 degree. Problem solved.

My swing speed is similar.  The stronger lofts and low spin make 150 pretty easy for me with 7 iron.  On Trackman, numbers are about 150 carry, 160  total, 5000 spin, but IRL over 20 rounds, I see 145-150 carry with little release.

That sounds about right and really good to me. How is the wear and tear on the 150? Havent seen too many pics of usage on them. Im torn between the two models but might be leaning t200 as i already have the players type irons in my arsenal lol.

Saw some barely used heads that I was able to get at a really good price. Looks like I am building a 2nd set! 

[Warrick]

I bought the previous version of T200 at release, enjoyed them, then got a set of T100s, they are fantastic , wanted a bit higher launch on 6-7, so got T1500, love em.

 

I took the T200 out for a round yesterday, was planning to take those on California trip, but decided the T150 is just better, so ordered the 8-G to complete my T150 set, T200 are getting sold.

[odshot68]

Just used my set yesterday for the first time. These are sic!!  Crazy long distances but consistent. I hit one off the toe and said that will be way short only to end up just short of pin high on the green. These are extremely forgiving. I did buy a t100 gw but sole is thinner and am going to switch it out for the t150 gw. Amazing irons. Not sure how they did it. I do appreciate I wasn’t hitting the short irons extra long so gapping was good.  Better than my mizuno mp20 mb irons I’ve played for last four seasons since I don’t have time to play as much anymore. I will say I’ve gained 15 yards per mid and long irons in these. 215 yard 5 iron is so nice.

The backs are like the AP2s, where they show wear as the metal is soft, unlike Taylor Made P7XX bodies which are harder.

 

I tried the T200s at the store and did not like the look and feel as much, too similar to my P770s.  Thinner soles just seem to interact better with the turf with my swing.  Good luck with your choice!

Me too. Well a set with the PX LZ 6.0 on them. Mint 4-PW for a great deal. Need to give the shaft some time as they may be too soft as I can get a little aggressive, but excited for these. Really love the long irons. Afraid i may be moving to an almost full Titleist bag next year.

Sweet set for sure. I just ordered a 4 iron with hzrudus black 80 hybrid shaft. Can’t wait to try this.

Keep us posted.  That's my shaft, which is a good thing for the price and Titleist stock.  I have been thinking of putting it into one of the new gen heads (350/200/150).

8-G shipped, be here Thursday, and just happens to be a forecast of 50’s here in Iowa on Friday and Saturday, will get a test run before California in February

I went with th 48 Gap wdge in the T150 and I bent my 54 to 53 and that was a good solution for me.

I have been debating this all morning. Was thinking 48/52/58 or 49/54/60(or 59) But I think I may get the t100 9 and PW and bend the 9 to 41. Rather bend strong then weak so I don't add bounce. That way I keep the same lofts as the Srixon z745 I have been playing for years. I really need some on course feedback to be sure.

I just bent my existing 50 degree gap wedge to 49. Still like having a specialty gap wedge, especially for shots around the green.
