Titleist GT Drivers – GT2, GT3 and GT4

SuperStroke
Course I played today was a little bit tighter than my home track, and offered a much different test of where my game is at, especially off the tee. I am working on learning how to aim this new shot shape, and for the most part today it was really successful. I was finding fairways, hitting really decent tee shots, and finding the center of the face. I was surprised initially to see a lot of high level guys playing the 2, but it’s making more and more sense. This is a pretty sweet combo of forgiveness and speed, and it’s no slouch at either of them. Straying outside of center with this driver is still going to perform.
 
Got the GT3 going over the week end for 9 holes, the thing just hits different, so fast off the face.
 
Seems like I found my groove again and had a great round with the GT2 this morning. LOVE this driver!

Apparently they've been watering the heck out of the place as the course was a bit muddy/wet, for AZ, this time of year, so not a lot of roll out.

Last 15 rounds for The GT2 has been 52% FIR

Today's round went 77% FIR so a nice uptick hitting fairways.

Distance was down just a bit due to the muddy/wet conditions.

I've been eyeing a nice, used GT3 for a great price...really want the GT2 but had good luck with the TSi/TSr3 drivers.

GT3 has been pretty awesome for me and has had more distance potential than the GT2, you maaaaybe can get away with a little bit more with the GT2 but honestly the GT3 has been plenty forgiving for me.
 
I went from TSR2 to GT3 and I’m glad I did. Great driver.
 
I've decided to bring all my GTs out for a round today and I'm kinda excited about it. Will be a good test to see how it stakes up after having a few of best driving rounds with other clubs in the bag.

Eager to hear how it goes! My GT3 driver has gone cold lately ... it was so great for a long time, but lately I've been missing on the toe side and the no-spin knuckleball hooks have been killing me. I tested a G440 Max, which obviously is in a completely different universe in terms of design, and WOW the performance on those toe strikes is infinitely better.
 
Ended up only playing 9 but still a good showing for GT3 today. I didn’t hit a single fairway, but was never more than 5 feet off it. I wasn’t seeing quite as much height or distance as I have been in the previous rounds with TD TD, but I also know I put two swings on balls today that would have been severely punished with that club that were still immensely playable off GT3. I think the forgiveness on these was vey much under appreciated.

Do you have a similar miss pattern with the 2 drivers?

As my swing path has gotten a bit more neutral, I’ve started missing out on the toe a bit more. The Tour Draw doesn’t particularly love that miss. The GT3 just sorta pushes the ball right but with a straighter trajectory.

Unless I come over the top and hit the toe. The TD actually loves that miss and gives me the accidental straight ball. GT3 does as well, with slightly less pop.

Ah the dreaded accidental straight ball. One of these days I’m going to learn how to hit that shot for real 🤔.

Do you see any draw bias when you miss out on the toe?

A little bit for sure. Nothing hooky with the GT3 though. And since I’m usually aiming more down the left, that helps keep it in play.
 
I ended up trading for a GT2, had I been purchasing it would have been the GT3 for sure. However, I do have a new appreciation for the ‘more forgiving’ head how, the GT2 is long and very forgiving for me. Spin is great most of the time, when it’s not that’s on me. I’m really glad the trade worked out the way it did, also has a shaft I would have never thought would work for me but has been fantastic. Ventus red 6x
 
My GT2 will get it's maiden voyage tomorrow.
 
I snuck into the GT driver club today with a fitting. The static questionnaire on the Titleist website suggested a GT3 which seemed counterintuitive, but turns out, a stock Denali shaft worked better for me with a 40g weight, A2 setting, N setting, all better by a small margin than the same head with a Ventus upgrade. So ordered it that way.

I have the Denali Red 50R F3 in my GT3 and it’s a great combo for me. I do have a Ventus Velocore Blue R to try in it also, as well as a Ventus TR Red.
 
GT3 was solid again for me today after a dry spell with a crap driver swing. Hit 50% of fairways (good for me), and managed a P-Avg of 263 on a wet, all carry kind of day, and in heavy air where pretty much everything was going about one club short. Given the conditions it was very solid distance. The one drive that was actually afforded some roll went 283.

The miss right now is a little open push that still gets respectable distance and doesn't go more than 15-20 yards off line. Feeling pretty good about it right now for sure.
 
Hit the range yesterday, and decided to do a little experiment today after seeing a ball flight that I was curious about. Project “embrace a cut” played really well today for me, and I felt like I could swing a lot easier. I’m enamoured with the forgiveness across the face on the GT2, I explored the face today on a few tee shots, and I got much better results than I thought I would see. Distances are way up from last season, and I had some wedges in today from really relaxed yardages. I’ll have to play around with some tee height, but it felt good to crack a few and see big, high, baby cuts off the tee today.

I was happy with the consistent distance I was getting. I was hitting a lot towards the toe, and the feel and distance (270-275yds total) were very good for me...I'd like to get a better idea of carry but that can wait for now. Increasing the loft to 10 is something I'm pondering as well... we'll give it a few rounds, tho.

Do you struggle with driver height and need the launch help?
 
I have been in the pit of misery lately with my GT3. And I don’t blame the club, but I just cannot seem to find a groove off the tee this year and stay in it. Swing is in a bit of a state right now, playing 18 tomorrow to hopefully get it worked out
 
Played with some randoms and on the 17th, one of them suggested a little wager for longest drive...289yds later 😁 🔥
 
So played today at cape cod country club shot a 88 stroke currently im a 16 handycap so with my handycap I got a 72 (+1) had a couple of really bad rounds last month and man does that cap go up. Hit 70% of fairways off the tee the other 28% was just off the second cut. On 18 shanked one in the woods. My average drive today was 270yds. Im very happy with my gt 4. Some concerns im seeing is chipping on the top of the club from the tees hitting it when i get under thd ball. the scuff marks (not sure how that happened) seeing i always have the head cover on. In no way does it effect performance it just looks displeasing at address. I look forward to challange this club to see what it could do. So far drove( 2)302 yard greens and ended up rolling to the back of the green on the fringe. Im hitting them straight and im not use to that.
