After conducting several driver fittings and player testing at our Scottsdale True Spec Golf facility, here’s what we learned about the GT line:
GT2: Best for players seeking performance and forgiveness
The model that will fit most players is the GT2. This driver is fast, forgiving and has a much more appealing shape — it appears much more neutral and without a draw bias — compared to the previous generation TSr2 model.

GT2 — Speed & Forgiveness Across The Face For players who don’t always find the center of the face and need the stability of a high-MOI driver without sacrificing speed. Speed & Forgiveness Across The Face Delivering impressive distance from any impact point, GT2 extracts maximum performance through forgiving design. Get the stability and added confidence of a high-MOI driver without sacrificing speed. Seamless Thermoform Crown A reimagined ultra-lightweight design, born from a new Proprietary Matrix Polymer. The tunable acoustic properties of this unique composite allow Titleist engineers to realize new material gains while maintaining our signature sound and feel. All wrapped in a clean look that inspires total confidence. Split Mass Construction GT2 delivers a powerful balance of forgiveness and speed thanks to a breakthrough in internal weighting. Mass is shifted to the back of the clubhead to increase MOI for better stability, while also pushing weight low and forward to optimize speed and spin. The result is a driver that frees you to swing with confidence.
While still having a shallower face compared to the other two GT models, there is still plenty of surface area to suggest that this driver packs a punch and will appeal to intermediate and accomplished ball strikers alike.
In testing, we found the GT2 is easy to launch and sustains ball speed and spin numbers across most of the hitting surface. It also was responsive for players who tend to miss toward the heel and low on the face. The GT2’s start direction is fairly neutral and doesn’t yield itself to a particular flight bias down range.
GT3: Best for players seeking speed and shot-shaping
For those players looking to have additional control over their ball and shot shape, the GT3 answers the call.
With a sleek and more traditional pear shape, the GT3 provides solid feedback through impact and also delivers a satisfying sound. With new proprietary Thermoform material in the crown as well as a redesigned Split Mass weighting system, some Titleist loyalists may have concerns about a change in the acoustics. For me, though, the GT3 produces the familiar acoustics that Titleist fans have come to know and love.
GT3 – Speed-Tuned Distance & Control GT3 offers Titleist’s boldest combination of power and personalization. With a speed-tuned design that allows you to precisely match performance to your most frequent contact location, you can make your biggest drives even bigger while taking total control over flight and shaping. For players with a relatively consistent impact location, GT3 offers a precisely adjustable CG Track to max out distance and directional control. Seamless Thermoform Crown A reimagined ultra-lightweight design, born from a new Proprietary Matrix Polymer. The tunable acoustic properties of this unique composite allow Titleist engineers to realize new material gains while maintaining our signature sound and feel. All wrapped in a clean look that inspires total confidence. Split Mass Construction A breakthrough in internal weighting unlocks longer drives and enhanced directional control in GT3. The Adjustable CG Track now sits closer to the face for more dynamic CG control, while additional discretionary mass is pushed to the back of the club to maintain optimal stability through impact. Advanced Aerodynamics GT3 features a new raised tail contour that represents a dramatic shift in driver aerodynamics. Previously impossible to execute due to design constraints, this advanced shaping results in a driver that swings faster while still providing optimal CG control.
Launch and spin was noticeably lower when compared to the GT2, with the start direction trending toward being more right bias for a right-handed player and a visual at address that gives the appearance of sitting more “open” to the target.
Accomplished players who struggle with a pull or hook miss will appreciate the GT3 for its workability, but the club still maintains an impressive amount of forgiveness and lends itself to a fade-bias profile.
GT4: Best for players seeking lower spin and workability
The most precise ball-strikers will appreciate the smaller and more compact GT4. This head will appeal to high-launch, high-spin players seeking to eliminate the left side of the golf course.
At 430 cc, the GT4 will appear to have a deeper face and produce the lowest launch and lowest spin of any model in the GT family.
During testing, I noticed a surprising improvement in forgiveness and sustainability of ball speed, despite the GT4’s smaller head size.
GT4 – Exceptional Low-Spin Performance GT4 is Titleist’s most aggressive spin-reducing driver ever. With an adjustable forward and aft CG that can dramatically drop RPMs to optimal levels, this driver packs immense power into a compact, player-preferred shape for total confidence over every drive. For players losing distance due to spin rates above 3,000 RPMs, GT4 offers Titleist’s most aggressive spin-reducing driver. Split Mass Construction An evolution in internal weighting enables even greater spin-killing performance in GT4. By pushing the mass distribution farther apart, the clubhead maintains back-weighted stability while simultaneously driving CG forward for our greatest spin reduction to date. Refined Aerodynamics Material improvements in construction allow GT4 to feature a more compact 430cc clubhead with player-preferred shaping to help neutralize spin and generate incredibly consistent distance. Dual Spin-Control Settings Knock down spin with the twist of a wrench. GT4 features two weight positions to customize your club’s performance. Set the weight forward for the most aggressive reduction in spin. Set it back for a balanced blend of speed, stability and more moderate spin reduction.
Compared to the previous generation TSr4, the GT4 was faster across the face and noticeably more forgiving on the miss. Despite the added forgiveness, ball speed wasn’t sacrificed and the head still performed for players with above-average clubhead speeds who are looking for a more boring trajectory off the tee.
Whether you’re a seasoned Titleist enthusiast or exploring Titleist drivers for the first time, the GT family offers something for all game-improvement needs. I would recommend testing all three models and working with your local golf professional or professional fitter to determine what model works best for your individual game.
