Titleist GT fairway woods: Full reviews, player testing, photos and more
HIGHLIGHTS
Three fairway wood models
Forged L-cup face
Ultra-lightweight configuration WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
The high launch, low spin GT2 is offered in five lofts (13.5, 15, 16.5, 18, 21 degrees) for golfers who want to consider the idea of going beyond the 5-wood into the ever-popular 7-wood.
Long considered the Tour version, GT3 comes in three lofts (15, 16.5, 18 degrees) and boasts a reimagined SureFit CG Track system, which allows the sliding weight to be placed in five positions: H2 (Heel), H1, N (Neutral), T1 (Toe) and T2.
Titleist GT2 and GT3 fairway woods: 5 things you need to know
With GT3, the face was raised to give it a deeper profile. In turn, the bigger face gives the fairway wood a higher CT. Compared to the shallower face profile on GT2 — a look that’s ideal for golfers with a sweeping delivery — it’s practically impossible to get them mixed up in this product cycle.
Titleist also flattened out the sole radius from heel to toe. It’s a subtle change that allows the fairway woods to sit flush on tight turf conditions.
The GT1 fairway is the largest profile in the GT lineup at 180 cc, while also featuring the shallowest face height to help players launch the ball off the turf.
One of the biggest leaps in tech from the GT2, 3 and 4 drivers — the Seamless Thermoform Crown, made from a Proprietary Matrix Polymer (PMP) — helped the designers lower the center of gravity (CG) to boost launch.
With the weight distributed properly — GT1 has the deepest CG in the entire GT family — the shape was also refined to make it more aerodynamic, helping the slow-to-moderate clubhead speed player swing it faster.

PLAYER TESTING TAKEAWAYS
“I love the look at set up — it inspires confidence. Hot clubface with lots of feel, high launch, long and straight. It’s perfect. You feel a real connection at impact. You can tell where you hit it and how far it’ll go. Even bad shots ended up in the right place. It was the longest of the bunch by 6 yards! The ball jumped off the face. —David Walde, 6-handicap
“Very positive, the results I want. I’m looking forward to bringing this club to the course. It has a classic look at address. I love looking at it. Excellent smooth and solid contact through impact. Very consistent. Generous forgiveness for my type of player. Solid contact transformed my numbers.” —Jerry Wenker, 17-handicap
