Titleist launches new GT2 and GT3 fairway metals

Published

on

Titleist has today unveiled its new GT2 and GT3 fairway metals.

Both GT2 and GT3 fairway metals feature all-new constructions, beginning with their Seamless Thermoform Crown, made from Titleist’s Proprietary Matrix Polymer.

The crown is designed to maintain the classic Titleist look while the acoustic properties of the Proprietary Matrix Polymer seek to provide the classic Titleist sound and feel. Much like the GT driver line, the ultra-light crown on GT2 and GT3 fairways allows for the redistribution of discretionary mass, leading to optimized center of gravity positions in each model. The result is higher flight with similar or lower spin and fast speeds in both models.

A new L-Cup Face is also designed to improve performance on low impact shots, and refined shaping on each model gives players two distinct options to choose from.

“A line of high-performing fairway metals needs to excel in a number of different ways. For most golfers, fairway metals need to be highly versatile. They need to be fast and long off the tee, and they need to fly high and hold greens. Playability and forgiveness are hugely important as well. The changes we made to GT fairways help deliver across all these performance attributes.” – Stephanie Luttrell, Director, Titleist Metalwood Product Development

Seamless Thermoform Crown

The ultra-lightweight Seamless Thermoform Crown on GT2 and GT3 fairways is made of the same new Proprietary Matrix Polymer found in GT drivers. The density of the Proprietary Matrix Polymer is about five times lighter than steel, giving Titleist engineers significant weight savings in comparison to prior generation fairway crowns, while maintaining Titleist’s classic sound and feel.

The crown is also completely seamless, offering a player-preferred look at address without compromising any of the performance gains from GT’s multi-material construction. To accommodate varying center of gravity targets between the two models, GT2’s crown uses more Proprietary Matrix Polymer than does the GT3.

Low CG

The discretionary mass gained from GT fairways’ Seamless Thermoform Crown allowed Titleist engineers to reposition the center of gravity in each model in a bid to achieve optimal performance. GT2’s CG is pushed lower and closer to the face, in design to produce higher launch and lower spin than its TSR2 predecessor. GT3’s CG is moved deeper in a bid to allow for higher launch while keeping spin in a low but playable window.

Forged L-Cup Face

The clubface on GT fairways is specifically designed to improve performance on strikes low on the face. A new insert wraps around the bottom of the club in design to preserve ball speed, eliminate excessive spin and enhance sound and feel.

Tour-Inspired Shaping

Both GT2 and GT3 fairways feature refinements to their shaping. Titleist engineers flattened the sole curvature from heel to toe on both models, which gives the head the appearance of sitting lower. Impacts on the toe and heel side also hit higher on the face now, in design for added forgiveness.

Based on Tour feedback, the GT3 face is now taller, which differentiates the two models, helping accommodate a wider range of player preference.

GT2 Fairway

The GT2 fairway is designed to deliver high flight, low spin and exceptional forgiveness. The model comes in five different lofts, allowing players to dial in their distance gapping at the top end of their bag. GT2 has an inviting profile with a shallow face, ideal for players who have a more sweeping delivery with their fairway metals.

Specs:

  • High launch, low spin
  • Lofts: 13.5, 15.0, 16.5, 18.0, 21.0 (RH/LH)
  • Standard Lengths: 43”, 43”, 43”, 42”, 41.5”
  • Standard Lie: 56.5, 56.5, 57.0, 57.5, 58.0
  • Head: 200cc, 170cc, 170cc, 150 cc, 145 cc
  • Featured Grip: Titleist Universal 360 Grip
  • Weight Options: 9 Gram (Nominal) w/ +6, +4, +2, -2, -4 Options
  • SureFit Hosel: Compatible with TSR, TSi, TS

GT3 Fairway

 

The GT3 fairway offers controlled flight, fast ball speed and maximum adjustability. Each of the three GT3 loft configurations features a refined SureFit Adjustable CG Track System, which allows fitters to move a sliding weight track into one of five positions: H2 (Heel), H1, N (Neutral), T1 (Toe), T2. A taller face helps differentiate GT3 from GT2, a profile preferred by many players who like to hit down on the ball with their fairway metal and prefer the look of a deeper face.

Specs:

  • Mid/high launch, low spin
  • Lofts: 15.0, 16.5, 18.0 (RH/LH)
  • Standard Lengths: 43”, 43”, 42”
  • Standard Lie: 56.5, 57.0, 57.5
  • Head: 177cc, 177cc, 153cc
  • Featured Grip: Titleist Universal 360 Grip
  • Weight Options: 12 Gram (Nominal) w/ +6, +4, +2, -2, -4 Options; SureFit CG Track
  • SureFit Hosel: Compatible with TSR, TSi, TS

The GT fairways are available in golf shops worldwide beginning Friday, August 23rd and are priced at $399 ($599 premium shafts).

Neal Shipley, AKA, the “Big Fridge’s,” custom stamping

Published

on

Neal Shipley was the first to admit that he enjoyed his food while in college. But since his days at Ohio State, he’s slimmed down and earned a PGA Tour Card.

That hasn’t stopped him from having fun with his wedge stampings, though it’s led to some misunderstandings.

On the 54 (degree), we have ‘Big Fudge,'” Shipley told GolfWRX. “It was supposed to be ‘Big Fridge,’ so this happened a little while ago. ‘Big Fridge’ was a nickname between my college teammates and I, with ‘fridge’ meaning stomach, a big stomach.

“We told the Ping guys to put … ‘Big Fridge’ on it, and I think maybe some bad cell service or something, and they thought I said ‘fudge,’ so they put fudge on it.”

On Shipley’s 50-degree he also continues the food theme, this time with his go-to order at the “Golden Arches,” and his stamping “DONS 7.”

“The number 7 meal, the two cheeseburger meal, that was my McDonald’s order, back when I would have McDonald’s frequently,” Shipley shared.

Check out Shipley’s full what’s in the bag and the rest of his wedge stampings here on “Inside the Ropes” from Colonial.
