I would think they are mostly used in mixed sets, I am not sure how many people play a pure CB over something like an AP1. That is just a guess though I honestly have no idea.
Titleist T100, 620 MB and 620 CB Irons

I'm really surprised they are changing names. More so because AP1, AP2 are pretty well recognized now. But then again, they started the change with the TS2/TS3, so at least there is some sort of uniformity I guess.

I go back to a conversation and it was mentioned how there is really nothing to gain with the CB over the AP2. It's just more curiosity, people play what they want.
We will see if they are homers. New names and totally different designs.

I always looked at the AP3 as a marriage of the AP1s and AP2. Don't know much about Titleist so I could be mistaken.
I agree, that is why I said it was a complete guess. I have seen a couple of MB to AP1 combo sets locally over the MB to CB that were seen before.
I'm hungry too :drool:
So do I see the 2nd THP Event with Titleist coming with these??!!

It's replacing the AP2's. T100 is AP2, T200 is AP3, T300 is AP1.
I wouldn't be suprised if T-MB went away at some point with their introduction of their new U500/U510 utility/driving irons.

That's what it looks like to me. The T300 looked like AP1 replacements. Maybe they are putting everything in the right order now. The T200 will be AP3 replacements I guess.

Titleist is pretty regular with their schedule. You can pretty much count on late summer for the next batch.

I would expect them this fall, in line with their usual release cycle. I haven't been able to find much on the T200 irons though.
They were. The idea was solid. More player's iron type looks with a lot of forgiveness built in. Couldn't really call them the AP1.5s, so we got the AP3s.
Agreed with your first point, and would presume the same as your second.

I don't see hollow body blade shapes slowing down any time soon.
They ought to perfect them and put a reasonable price on them. Bet they sell just fine.... Or they can just sit back and watch P790 dominate the segment.
The Ap714 was the last Titleist iron that I hit and really liked them. Used them until my purchase of CF16's. Since then just haven't found the feel/distance/forgiveness that either one of these irons produced. The T300 will be on my list as a must try.

Me neither, but Titleist originally released them as a utility iron. Then expanded to a full set. Given that they are overpriced for what they are, they either need to make the changes you mentioned or drop them IMO. I don't see people buying T-MB's as utility irons when they can get the new U series.

I've had T-MB's in the bag a few times over the last year. When paired well, they are excellent and have better audible feedback for my preference from others in the space.
That said, I am so lost of what 'value' means for an iron anymore. PXG created a pretty nutty ceiling, so when there's an iron somewhat similar for less money, it's hard to call them overpriced. Personally, I think they should all 'drop' but I am lost on whether it actually makes sense compared to others.
