Titleist GT hybrids: Full reviews, player testing, photos and more
HIGHLIGHTS
Three hybrid models
CG adjustability
Refined shaping WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
The Titleist GT line is now complete with the release of GT hybrids to complement this past summer’s GT driver and fairway woods launch.
With the new line of GT hybrids, Titleist is now the only OEM offering both loft sleeve and center of gravity (CG) adjustability in every hybrid in their lineup.
All three models will come stock with a 5-gram and an 11-gram weight. With the ultralight GT1, designed for players who need high launch, the 11-gram weight will come standard in the aft position to make the CG as deep as possible to help with launch. Players who want a lower spinning or lower launching setup, but still benefit from the ultralight or high-forgiveness design of GT1 can move the heavy weight forward.
Titleist GT1, GT2 and GT3 hybrids: 3 things to know
The GT2 and GT3 hybrids will come standard with the 11-gram weight in the heel, but flipping the weights to put the heavy one in the toe gives the club a fade-bias setup and aligns the CG just a little on the toe side of the face, which is where many players tend to hit the ball.
The weights can also be customized with a weight kit with weight options going in 2-gram increments ranging from 3 to 13 grams. The weight of the club head can also be adjusted between 6 grams lighter and 6 grams heavier, depending on the combination chosen.
Putting the heavier weight in the rear of the GT1 hybrid also increases the MOI. The club has 5 percent more MOI than the previous generation TSR1 while having MOI properties similar to those of the TSR1 with the heavy forward weight. The GT2 hybrid has the highest MOI in the family, an increase of 10 percent from the previous model. The GT3 hybrid, despite being 6 percent smaller than its predecessor, has a whopping 15 percent more MOI thanks to improved perimeter weighting.

PLAYER TESTING TAKEAWAYS
“Mishits still went on a rope. Felt confident over the ball. Nice weight and could swing freely. Felt like I had loose, even tempo and didn’t have to hammer it. Dispersion was good, ball went dead straight. Distance was what I was hoping for. Was surprised to hit it so well. I’d buy it!” — Greg Caster (15.1 handicap) on the Titleist GT1 hybrid
“Felt good swinging and ball speed was consistent even with left and right misses.” — Will Prue (18.4 handicap) on the Titleist GT1 hybrid
“Great looking. Compact face. Best of bunch in looks. Mishits were forgiven and went the straightest of all. Consistent and straight overall.” — Robert Resnik (8 handicap) on the Titleist GT2 hybrid
