Watch
Rated highest for feel and looks; its softest dimension is workability.
You're a low-to-mid HCP (0-18) at 85-115mph who wants the most-forgiving spec of the 2022 TSR line with class-leading feel — comfortable with no movable-weight system.
You want movable-weight shape-bias tuning (the TSR3 sibling has it), you want max forgiveness for slow swings (the TSR1 is lighter / easier), or you want current-generation tech (the GT2/GTS2 are the direct successors).
Pros
- Reviewer testing: up there in terms of feel with the best fairway woods on the market — satisfying crack through impact
- Most-forgiving model in the 2022 TSR line — minimizes side spin and keeps a tight shot dispersion
- +3 yards through the air on average vs the predecessor — measurable distance gain plus the lowest CG ever in a Titleist fairway
- Quiet, understated tone with a high-pitched tink that doesn't ring out — refined acoustic signature
Cons
- Bonded sole — no movable weight system (only the tour-spec sibling had a CG track)
- Now 3 years old (2022 release) — superseded by GT2 (2024) and GTS2 (2026)
- ~£380 MSRP — premium pricing typical of the brand's tour-spec tier
- 175cc medium head doesn't offer the larger profile that some high-HCP players prefer
By dimension
Forgiveness
StrongReviewer testing: the head offers the most forgiveness out of the TSR fairway woods. The head works exceptionally well for the high handicapper, minimizing side spin and keeping a tight shot dispersion. Manufacturer: features the lowest CG ever for speed and launch without creating excessive backspin. Open Hosel Construction moves mass for higher MOI. Above-average forgiveness — most-forgiving of the 2022 line.
Distance
StrongReviewer testing: the new model retained easy-to-launch performance, offered slightly more distance (3 yards through the air on average) compared to the previous generation. Manufacturer: lowest CG ever for speed and launch without creating excessive backspin. When tested on launch monitor: showed improvement in ball speed and mid spin rates. Above-average distance — measurable +3 yard gain vs predecessor with the lower CG architecture.
Workability
SolidReviewer testing: opening up a world of shot making options on the course. 175cc head — medium-sized footprint with rounded symmetrical shape supports shape-shifting. High launch and mid spin versatile profile. Hosel adds face-angle bias tuning. Above-average workability — versatile shape-control with good fitting flexibility.
Feel
ExcellentReviewer testing: provides a very satisfying crack through impact and is up there in terms of feel with the best fairway woods on the market. Reviewer testing: the feel of impact aligns well with the sound. The head is noted for its solid feel through impact. New Open Hosel Construction contributes to a powerful new sound and feel that make this head an instant favorite for many players. Top-tier 2022 fairway feel — among the best in the category per reviewers.
Sound
ExcellentReviewer testing: the head delivers a quiet, understated tone with a quick, metallic tink that doesn't ring out or sustain when the ball is struck. While the sound is high-pitched, it's so quiet that it seems mid or even low pitched. Reviewer testing: beautiful look and quiet, traditional impact sound. Above-average tour-tier acoustic — quiet refined signature.
Looks at address
ExcellentReviewer testing: a clean, traditional look with a gloss black crown adorned by a small alignment aid. It features a medium-sized footprint with a rounded, symmetrical shape and face height that allows players to feel confident off the tee or turf. Classic tour-clean aesthetic. Above-average tour-spec address profile — traditional confidence-inspiring shape.
