It is estimated that around a third of the world\u2019s golfers are classed as having swing speeds that are moderate or lower so it makes a lot of commercial sense to really push the boat out to create a tailored driver that really helps make golf that little bit easier.<\/p>\n

The TSR1 does that and more with its uber lightweight design \u2013 it is a huge 40 grammes lighter than the TSR2 \u2013 while MMT\u2019s SpeedMesh shafts, which play at under 40 grammes in all flexes, really helps, not least because it still offers impressive stability and that translates to maximising energy transfer at impact.<\/p>\n

And making that impact is a 460cc head \u2013 the maximum-allowed capacity \u2013 so those who need the most help are definitely getting it with the TSR1, which goes on sale on February 23rd.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe TSR1 line represents a continued commitment to deliver speed to every style of player,\u201d said Stephanie Luttrell, Titleist Director of Metalwood Development.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith the TSR1 driver, we found more speed and launch for the player through a lightweight design, better aerodynamics and our deepest CG ever in a Titleist driver.\u201d<\/p>\n

The elimination of excess weight, combined with improved aerodynamics and a similar \u201cboat tail\u201d shape to the TSR2, helps golfers swing TSR1 faster through the air.<\/p>\n

Multi-Plateau Variable Face Thickness technology, found in other TSR driver models, assists in speed retention from off-centre hits, while a deep Centre of Gravity, almost perfectly centred to the face, promotes higher launch and exceptional ball speed.<\/p>\n
