Where it wins
- Looks83
- Feel82
- Sound81
Watch
Rated highest for looks and feel; its softest dimension is workability.
You swing under 90 mph or fight a slice and want the most forgiving, easiest-launching Titleist - an ultralight, draw-biased head that adds speed without effort, ideal for higher handicaps.
You swing faster, want low spin and a penetrating flight, or want workability - the TSi2, TSi3 or TSi4 suit you better.
Pros
- Titleist's most forgiving driver of its generation - the best mishit performance in the TSi family
- An ultra-lightweight 460cc head (about 40g lighter than standard) for easy clubhead speed at moderate swings
- The most draw-biased Titleist driver - genuine help for the slice
- The new ATI 425 titanium face and ultra-thin crown raise MOI and launch
Cons
- Built for swing speeds under 90 mph - it won't pack a punch for faster players
- Spin runs a touch low for optimum carry
- Low workability - a high-MOI, draw-biased lightweight head
By dimension
Forgiveness
StrongThe most forgiving Titleist of its day - the most forgiving driver Titleist offers, with the best mishit performance in the TSi family, reasonable dispersion and good mishit retention toward the toe, heel and vertically. A genuinely forgiving head for moderate swings.
Distance
SolidEasy speed for its target - the ultralight build gives exceptional ease of speed for moderate swings, though spin runs a touch low for optimum carry, and it won't pack a punch for faster swings. Long for its sub-90 mph audience, not a peak-distance bomber.
Workability
ModestBuilt straight, with a draw - the most draw-biased Titleist driver through CG positioning, the lightweight, high-MOI head built for straightness and easy launch rather than shaping. Minimal shot-shape freedom.
Feel
ExcellentSolid and clean - a solid strike from the ATI 425 titanium face, a quality impact for a lightweight head. A clean, premium sensation.
Sound
StrongCrisp and clean - a crisp, confident note from the titanium face, a clean acoustic. Lively without being harsh.
Looks at address
ExcellentClean and classic - the clean, classic Titleist shape at address, a premium, understated look. Confidence-inspiring for the moderate-swing player.
