Completing the lineup of TSi metal woods, Titleist is announcing the new TSi2 and TSi3 hybrids. Knowing two areas that needed improvement, adjustability and sound, Titleist has worked on both and engineered what they call the new standard in the category.
Both models feature Carpenter 455 forged faces.
TSi2 provides high launch and distance for players with a sweeping delivery. Larger profile for those that prefer the look of the FW Wood in their hybrid spot.
TSi3 hybrids are distinctively different in nearly every way to the previously mentioned TSi2. Compact and featuring a more squared toe look that has very little face progression. This model features the same SureFit CG Track Technology system as the fairway wood, where a hidden track on the sole allows movement of the weight. Designed for players who hit down on the golf ball.
“One of the key points of difference in fitting and performance between the new Titleist TSi hybrids and the competition is the level of adjustability we offer, especially in the TSi3,” said Josh Talge, Vice President, Titleist Golf Club Marketing. “We all stress that golfers should be custom fit for drivers and irons, so why not hybrids? The golfer may need or want to increase or decrease loft, add a degree upright or make the club flatter. Those adjustability options are available with the new TSi hybrids and we think that, in combination with outstanding performance, sets these hybrids apart.”
• Loft Options: TSi2 – RH: 18º, 21º, 24º | LH: 18º, 21º, 24º | TSi3 – RH: 18º, 20º | LH: 18º, 20º

I put the TSi2 24° in the bag and I’ve had one range session so for and it went well. Goes on the course today.
I actually think the hybrids are the star of the show in this line and are a bit overlooked. The TSi 3 is really good
Welcome to THP? Which loft?
It is a rainy, cold weekend in my area. I dropped into the local PGA Superstore late afternoon yesterday and hit the TSi2 hybrids. I was super impressed. Do you see a huge difference in playability between the 2 and the 3?
Thank you!
Going with the 20* and I’ll also have to pick up the TSi2 in 24*
I understand why Titleist does not offer the TSi3 in 24*. Most people looking for that profile do not want a higher lofted hybrid. However, I keep coming back to my Cobra Tour MIM irons, but only play them down to a 6 iron, which is bent one degree strong to 28*. I keep trying to find that next club in my bag that will gap properly. I need it to be easier to hit than a player’s forged 5 iron. I have tried a couple of utilities and game improvement irons in that spot. I believe that the TSi3 in 24* would be perfect. I decided to try a TSi2, but even those are difficult to find with a stiff shaft. I didn’t really want to wait a month, which is about what it is looking like, either from Titleist’s site or through retailers. I finally found one online. I am excited to give it a whirl.
I’m honestly not sure. The 3 seemed a bit more penetrating to me, but I got more spin with it
What shaft have you been using in it? I need to go in and test them. Which stock shaft option would be the most similar to the speeder HB 8.8 tour spec?
Next on my purchase list, looking forward to hearing your thoughts after your round. My 816 H2 19* is getting tired and is ready for retirement
It was a good start. Flights and feels how I remembered from the turf and tee.
First balls on the range were a disaster… then I remembered that the TSi3 should be played more like an iron instead a sweeping motion as the TS2 required. And boom! I tell you this thing is money. It has an awesome penetrating flight, stops easily due to a decent descent angle and comes hot of the face. The TSi3 is also quite workable – I‘m totally in love with that club!
Been playing the TSi3 20* hybrid now for about a year. Loved it from the start. It is money from most reasonable lies out of rough and I hit it mostly straight from the fairway too. Off the tee, I sometimes get a bit more hook out of it than I would like, but that has always been a problem for me with hybrids. As far as this TSi3 goes, it is by far, the best–(least hooky)–of all the hybrids I’ve ever played. I had it set to the stock A1 setting up until about a month ago, but just lofted it down to 19. I’ve been hitting my U500 21* 4 iron so well, strengthening the hybrid now gives me a slightly better yardage separation between the two.
I’m considering a GD Tour AD shaft for the TSi3 hybrid now, since I already play them in my TSi3 driver, TSi2 3W and my U500 4i with great satisfaction AND results. Anyone else play a GD Tour AD in their TSi3? Which model?
Same for me. I still haven‘t filled that space. I have borrowed a U510. However, it‘s not as reliable as I hoped for. For the time being that means either taking a bit off of the TSi3 or going full blast on my 5i…
