Titleist TSR Drivers are now available to the public after being released to tour players earlier this year. Titleist made another jump in innovation - here are the three important things to know. First, the VFT (Variable Face Thickness) design produces increase smash factor and consequently ball speed. Second, the new aerodynamic “boat tail” designs promises to increase club head speed just from the head alone. Plus, Titleist’s approach to MOI (moment of inertia) now spans toe to heel and crown to sole. This approach helps optimize spin and forgiveness at every hit. Learn more about MOI from Golf.com. Each of these innovations apply to each model differently in an effort to cater to different player types.
How to Choose Titleist TSR Drivers
If you’re a player looking for maximum forgiveness, think TSR2. For lower handicap players looking to increase ball speed through precision adjustments, think TSR3. For advanced players desiring a smaller, more compact head with multiple spin adjustments, think TSR4.
TSR2
For players who make contact across the entire surface of the face, chances are you’re not playing the correct shaft. While the TSR2 is designed to help compensate for multiple impact locations, you’re best suited to start with the correct shaft. Our online Fitting Wizard finds the optimal shaft in 5 quick steps.
Titleist has done a good job of shifting CG (center of gravity) to increase ball speed even from mishits. The TSR2 is also designed to provide higher launch with lower spin to help increase control. TSR2 Drivers are available in 8.0, 9.0, 10.0 and 11.0 lofts. Don’t guess at loft and regret it. The best way to determine your optimal head loft is through our personalized Fitting Wizard.
TSR3
For players who have a consistent impact location on the face, Titleist’s “Speed Ring Face Technology” promises increased ball speed and smash factors. And lower handicap players can benefit from precision-tuning the CG Track System to focus to an optimal hitting zone. When paired with the correct shaft, the TSR3 can produce the best performance characteristics possible – tighter shot dispersion, maximum distance, and optimal trajectory, spin and landing angles.
TSR3 Drivers are available in 8.0, 9.0, 10.0 and 11.0 lofts. Precision players can benefit most from Trackman Optimizers and building to the optimal loft that achieves the trajectory, spin, landing angle, distance and control desired. Do it right the first time with a personalized driver fitting.
TSR4
The TSR4 Driver is visibly smaller and more compact at 430cc, even though it is only 30cc smaller than the TSR3 and TSR2 Drivers. Unique to the TSR4, it offers two different spin reduction settings – one at the front of the head and one at the back. The forward interchangeable weight helps increase distance through lower spin. The back interchangeable weight offers a more moderate, fine-tuning adjustment to spin.
Conclusion
We like the innovation Titleist has put into the new TSR Drivers, building on the success we've seen with the TSi Drivers. Choosing the right driver head style for your game, paired with the right shaft, can definitively improve your game.

Titleist, like many club manufacturers, offer limited off-the-shelf options for shafts and grips. These shafts tend to be high production and low precision shafts. We often find these shafts vary greatly from stated flexes as well. If you’re going to make the big investment in a new driver, you deserve a custom shaft and custom build that fits your swing.
