TSR2+ R6 000 • The larger size and taller face make it a good driver alternative on shorter holes. • It has the deepest CG of any Titleist fairway wood for extra stability on off- centre hits. • Its strong loft provides more ball speed potential than standard 3-wood lofts. • 13 degrees (with a 16-way adjustable hosel)

TOP 5 HIGHEST FLYING, FAIRWAY WOODS, MIDDLE-HANDICAPS
WHY WE LIKE IT This Titleist group of fairway woods fits four playability scenarios from grandmas to Grand Slam winners. What we like most is how these models got rid of a proven technology (a slot in the sole) for a better one. The new sole design leads to the lowest centre of gravity for a fairway wood in company history, and the saved weight further optimises each model for a particular user.

TSR3 R6 000 • An adjustable sole weight has five settings ranging from fade to neutral to draw. • More settings mean more precision. The weighting is also deeper for extra stability. • Expect slightly less spin and a flatter launch angle than with the TSR2. • 13.5, 15, 16.5, 18 degrees (with a 16-way adjustable hosel)

• Though 30 grams heavier than last year, this model is still the lightest Titleist fairway wood (20 grams less than the TSR2 and TSR3). • A deep, centred weight increases stability on off-centre hits and elevates launch. • 15, 18, 20, 23 degrees (with a 16-way adjustable hosel)

‘I can feel the ball compress at impact and springboard off. Surgical sound. Stayed on target. Forgiveness is apparent on mis-hits.’ –10-HANDICAP
