I have played a 913 and a 917, both with diamana shafts. The 913 was consistent, but i could not get the 917 to be consistent. I ordered a TSi3 with a rogue silver shaft (discontinued), and it came with a Hazardous Black RDX shaft. This combo works great for me! The face is very hot and the balance is great!

Thanks Titleist!

I was very lucky recently to attend a demo of the new TSi Drivers and Fairway Metals at Medinah Country Club in Chicago. I have been very happy with my current TS2 clubs so I was scratching my head how Titleist could possibly make a major improvement. To my surprise they have a new winner without question! I have posted a variety of pictures on my Instagram Account under @Chris92009 if you wish to see more (I had some problems uploading on this thread pics so I apologize for the inconvenience).

Here is a Short Review of the new Titleist TSi Clubs from my demo experience, I hope you get some value from my day; TSi Thoughts: I thought we would examine three categories 1.Looks, 2. Feel/Sound, and 3. Bottomline Impressions. 1. Looks: TSi2/TSi3 are both gorgeous and for faders of the ball on the TSi3 the toe area is open in appearance since it is rounded beautifully. My initial impression is that the looks are amazing and a huge step up over the TS and 917 prior “gen” clubs that sometimes looked closed at address. Home run for Titleist here! 2. Feel/Sound: This where the home run turns into a grand slam...in the past they have made improvements but this driver is out of the park amazing. I would describe the sound as a “crunch” feeling like I am really compressing the ball on a serious launch! The track man numbers confirm this as true! It almost sounds/feel you are really compressing the ball and it is shooting with enormous speed off the face. Bottomline: This driver and fairway metal are going into my bag immediately! I could not believe how much less the dispersion is on the TSi vs TS and how much farther they go!

Hopefully, if you have not already, you will have a chance to demo these gorgeous clubs and you will have similar thoughts...regardless I think these are an improvement over the TS and definitely over 917/915 drivers and fairway metals.

Looking forward to seeing everyone at Sand Valley in early October and Bandon Dunes later in October!

Cheers, Chris

Now that I have had a few months to play with my new TSi 2 Driver (10 degree) and TSi 2 Fairway Metal (16.5 degree) here are some updates.

First, the length on both is amazing. At Tiburon Golf Club in Naples, Florida, I drove three par fours (from the same tee boxes I normally play) and have never done that before! Holes 2, 10 and 15. Furthermore, at my home course I have been driving the ball into places I have not seen before...simply incredible what Titleist has done.

Second, I have noticed my dispersion is much TIGHTER than ever before with a driver. It is interesting that I am driving and hitting my fairway metal much better than the TS 2 Driver an TS 2 Fairway metal. I did not expect this to happen.

Third, the TSi 2 Fairway metal is so EASY to hit off the turf. It is the first fairway club I can easily hit from just about any lie in the fairway or light rough. Great club, I am wondering where has it been all these years!

Lastly, the sound, appearance and feel of the new clubs is simply awesome. I really enjoy all these aspects from these new clubs. I thought the TS clubs were great the way they felt but the TSi is the new king !

Hope this helps, Cheers...
Chris

I have been gaming my new TSi3 for a little over a month now and am very, very pleased. My fitter chose a Motore X F3 5-R2 shaft for me. During the fitting, I hit only 3 balls. The stats and flight paths overlaid almost exactly for the 3 shots. Easy decision - no need to hit any other clubs. It is an awesome club head and shaft combo. I do see some distance gain but tremendous accuracy improvement. I retained my previous TS4 driver but anxious to try the TSi4 when it is released. I really like the reduced spin and smaller head size in the "4" model. I also game the TSi3 fairway which is an awesome upgrade from the previous TS3 fairway model.

I just got back from my fitting at Stadium Golf in San Diego and came home with a new TSI2 Driver and 3 wood.

I am replacing a cally XR 16 Pro and a TM v-Steel 3 wood thats about 20 years old.

The TSI2 felt very smooth, I didnt feel like I was swinging as hard but was maintaining the same clubhead speed while gaining about 15 yards of carry distance. The ball felt great off the face, and I liked the sound of the club to. Not too high pitched, but not that deadened thud I feel like Ive been hearing lately with some clubs either.

Very happy with my purchase and cant wait to get out on the course.

I had a png G400 Max that I hit well but often would get crazy ballooning shots if I hit high and close to the heel which is my miss. Went for a fitting with an open mind to try everything and thought the tsi2 would be the beat fit. After trying quite a few brands and setups my fitter put me in a tsi3 with tensei whit shaft.

I was worried about the lack of forgiveness but my misses were better than with my png and my longest was a good amount farther due to more rollout with a better ballflight.

I’ll admit the cost concerned me but with the sound, feel and performance I saw during my fitting I placed an order and can’t wait to get it!!

I recently got fitted on the TSi2. Both the driver and the fairway metal. Much improvement from the TS series. Easily added 15-20 more yards onto my drives. The technology behind the TSi’s are INCREDIBLE nothing like I’ve ever hit before.

Got a TSi3 over the holidays, upgraded from a cally rogue sub zero. Weather finally cooperated enough to play my first round with it. Love the feel of the Tsi3 off the tee, it was my first time out in about 6 weeks so I was a lil inconsistent but was happy with the typical flight pattern of the drives. Looking forward towards fine tuning things in the coming months but extremely happy with the first round out with the new addition

[quote user="HoJo"]As if 2020 hadn’t been bad enough as a healthcare worker the universe decided to give me one last kick to the Pro V1’s on the first day of 2021. My TS2 Driver with about 10 rounds on it met a steel support beam in my basement. Not sure a sharpie will fix that one!

So.... 2021 will now find me fitting for a new TSi.

The wait is killing me! The shaft came in (LAGP Tour AXS Blu 70X - awesome shaft!) but I'm still waiting (impatiently lol) for the TSi3 to arrive. Hopefully it comes in early January here.

I went to my local Titleist club fitter and ended up picking the TSi2 driver 10*. My club fitter adjusted it for my swing and I am able to keep the ball in the fairway (most of the time!). I tried out other brands, but the feel and sound of the TSi2 was unmatched in my opinion. Do yourself a favor and get fitted.

Absolutely love my TSi2 driver. Titlesist have managed to make a driver with a VERY hot face that is also extremely forgiving across the entire face. My misses go about as well as my '16 M2, solid hits and my (few) perfect strikes are very much longer than equivalent with old driver. Low center and high toe (I have not hit on heel) misses are not really penalized. Way to go, Titleist!

I also love the looks of the club. You all nailed it.

Oh, and I also got the TSi2 fairway, which is the straightest fairway I've ever hit.

Fit for a TSi2 coming from a 917 D2 and saw 20 yds improvement. Ordered trough my club Nov 20th and still waiting for the club. Was very excited to try the TSi2 fairway but wasn't as consistent as my current 917 F2. Anyone have the same results?

[quote user="Robert C"]Sorry been a bit busy the past month and just getting caught up on the site. Had my TSi fitting in mid October and recieved the driver during launch week.

It was a great fitting. I had been hitting a TS1 and I felt I was getting too much spin. The LM confirmed that when we got my baseline numbers. Spin in the 2900 to 3200 range and ball speed in the 115 to 117 range. We settled on the TSi2 head pretty quickly then tried several different shafts.

The best shaft for me was the Kur Kage 50g R1. It brought my spin down to 2600 to 2700, and ball speed--during the fitting was 119 to 120. I have subsequently been getting 121. As a result I've gained about 17 to 18 yards with the TSi2.

Am very happy with it

Just noticed I posted pics of mu TS1 not TSi2. Uh Duh!! I guess that happens when you have more than one Titleist driver. Ha

I was fit on November 6th at a TSi launch event. Ended up getting TSi3 10* driver with Ventus Black 6x and TSi3 15* 3-wood with Ventus Black 7x. They are replacing extremely aged 909D2 driver and TM R9 3-wood. Why did I have such old clubs still in the bag...I couldn't find anything that gave me materially better results in the past 10 years. I fear the left miss and neither of those clubs missed left for me.

The TSi heads matched with the Ventus Black shaft (extremely low torque) were a perfect combination for me. Gained about 15 yards with the driver and about 5 yards with the 3-wood. But better than that, my dispersion was tighter with both. And with the 3-wood I don't fear the left shot.

As you all probably know, getting fit is the key. Finding the correct head & shaft combination is key.

Pretty excited about my fitting today at Club Champion. Replacing my 9 degree, Epic Flash Sub Zero with a 10 degree TSi3. Going to use my same Accra Tour RPG 352 M4 shaft I had in the cally. Ball speed was 6-7 mph more than the cally and spin was 500 RPM less on average. Looking forward to the change once the head comes in and I can get my shaft into the shop. Also pulled the trigger on a TSi2 15 degree 3 wood with a Ventus Blue 7 shaft. The stability was amazing! Looking forward to what I think will be added confidence with that 3 wood over my Rogue Sub Zero.

Cheers to all!

I had a fitting three weeks ago at our club. During the fitting I used both the TSi2 and 3 drivers. The TSi3 driver won out. Increased clubhead speed which averaged 5MPH as well as increased carry distance and height. This can all be attributed to the clubhead as we utilized my Graphite Design AD Di6 shaft in the TSi club heads. On a personal note the shape of the TSi3 was more appealing to myself. I was also fit for a TSi2 3 wood which won out over the TSi3. The clubhead speeds were similar but it was the off centre hits had a tighter dispersion. I have since ordered both the TSi3 driver and TSI2 3 wood. Both clubs have been ordered with Graphite Design AD Di shafts.

Playing the TSi3 with Tour AD IZ shaft. Tried the same set up in the TSi2 and I just got better results with the TSi3. Without the best driver I have gamed in a long time. Has replaced the SIM and is not looking back. Thank you Titleist!

About a month ago I was fit for the new TSi3 driver and was really amazed at the results. I really felt like the person doing my fitting was very knowledgeable and did a great job optimizing my numbers. I had never really been fit on a trackman before and I'm not sure that I'll ever go back. The fitting really answered a lot of questions that I had about how my driver should be set up. I went from 9.5* to 8* and now feel free to swing up on the golf ball and the flight doesn't get away from me. Went from a Stiff to an X flex shaft, I have the Tensi White. My setup is actually a half in short and I have a larger weight in the head. Needless to say, I gained about 25 yards with the TSi3 set up. My old set up was a 915d3 with a stiff shaft.
