Titleist GT Driver Line: Complete Breakdown & Comparison

🏌️‍♂️ The Titleist GT series drivers feature a proprietary composite material in the crown for weight savings and better performance.

⚙️ The GT4 driver is designed for high-speed, better players with a low spin and slight fade bias.

🔧 The GT3 driver offers adjustable weights to control horizontal ball flight and reduce spin.

🎯 The GT2 driver has a lower center of gravity for reduced spin and slight draw bias.

🚀 The GT1 driver is versatile, offering both lightweight and standard weight settings for high, straight shots.

00:00:05 - titlist has just added the final driver to the GT line with the GT1 let's do a quick recap of all of the drivers though in the series and really compare and contrast who they are for uh because honestly the GT series it's got some pretty big shoes to fill I think the the TSR line uh from the prior generation was the best driver they produced in a really long time uh let's do a quick recap like I said and talk about some of the technology that they share so for starters we've got our seamless

00:00:32 - thermoform crown and basically what this is it is a proprietary composite material in the crown of all the drivers in like any other model driver composite crowns are just lighter that means weight savings that the engineers can then put somewhere else where they're putting it that comes in with their split Mass construction and that is just internal waiting either towards the face or towards the rear or again wherever they are depending on the design of the driver uh which then just makes it

00:01:00 - driver more forgiving lower spin whatever the case is with that particular model and finally we have our speed ring and the vft face that is the internal Milling which just helps to increase ball speeds on those off-center strikes these are technologies that are shared Andross the entire line now let's break them down starting with the GT4 so it measures the GT4 with AI of 4100 when you have the heavy weight in the front no surprise there heavy weights in the

00:01:25 - front typically mean lower Moi move the weight into the back it gets all the way up to 4500 that's pretty high Moi for what is a pretty small profile driver it's definitely designed for your higher speed better player for sure and then as far as CG location goes we see in both settings about 2 and a/4 towards the toe that is millimeters so slight fade bias to it now whenever that heavyweight is in the front we have a CG height of 1.5 mm very low if you're trying to kill

00:01:55 - spin uh this is definitely the one of the drivers in the line that you want to test out out and then whenever you move that heavy weight into the back it only goes up to 3 and a qu so honestly this is a very low spin driver be that in the forward setting extreme low and then low spin whenever you have the weight in the back so spin killer GT4 is definitely one worth trying now let's talk GT3 sharing all the Technologies with the seamless therof Crown the vft face as the GT4 but

00:02:25 - now we've got an adjustable weight and this year they've taken it from the rear the Club where it was with the tsr3 and in the GT3 they've moved it closer to the face so moving the CG more forward helps to reduce spin it is going to reduce Moi as well too so pretty low Moi in the GT3 it's at 4200 but we do see a pretty fair amount of CG swings whenever you move the CG into the max toe setting uh we see that the CG goes to about 3 and 1/2 mm towards the toe so very fade bias there

00:02:57 - if you're trying to fight a hook this is definitely the one one you want to try out uh when you put in the middle about 1 and 1/2 mm towards the toe so slight fade bias pretty much neutral and then if you move it into the heel setting we get about 75 mm uh into the heel so overall a little over 4 mm of total swing which is a lot for uh this size driver so you get a lot of horizontal variability uh to dial in the curvature of the ball if that's what you're looking for in all those settings CG

00:03:27 - height is about 2 mm high on the face so definitely the spin killer the way I would basically compare these two so the GT4 and the GT3 gt4s if you're just looking for pretty much neutral ball flight and it's the amount of Back Spin you're looking to shave off this is probably the one that you want to test out if you are looking uh to do a little bit more of controlling the horizontal aspect you're going to get always low spin with the GT3 but you can then dial

00:03:52 - in the horizontal fade fighter uh or trying to reduce the uh the draw uh with the setting in the to next up GT2 replacing the tsr2 uh this year a little smaller profile overall I would say we do have the weight in the back as well like previous generations and we have Ani coming in at about 4750 4800 so uh I would say it's going to be maybe lower Moi relative to some of the competitors out there but not low Moi by any means what I think this the GT2 is going to have relative

00:04:29 - to those competitors is a much lower CG so CG is only 2 2 and 1 12 mm high so pretty low uh CG should be pretty low spin for really the uh style of driver that this is with a fixed weight in the back and we see it about 2 and 12 mm towards the toe so ever so slightly fighting uh that overdraw that hook if that is what you need last one up is the new one that we were missing in the bunch and that is the GT 1 now historically the tsr1 was really just seen as the lightweight

00:05:03 - driver uh if you were just trying to gain some clet speed you can still do that with the GT one but this is really meant to be just rounding out the line you can go lightweight if you want but you can also just get it in the standard weight setting and that is then designed to hit the ball high into the air if you're trying to launch this thing uh this is the one for you and really looking at these two the GT2 and the GT1 overall they really look very similar both on the sole and then

00:05:32 - just uh from the golfers profile as well the GT1 just looks ever so slightly bigger very similar shaping and then just visually looking at the face as well I would just say that the uh GT1 is just a little bit shallower and that just lowers uh everything a little bit lower to relative to the golf balls equator which is one variable or one way that we can launch it a little bit higher now let's talk about measurements so we have it about 4,400 on thei when we do have it in the lightweight setting

00:06:04 - if you go in standard setting it's going to be closer to 5,000 so you do have some adjustability there again part of the reason why thei is low lightweight it's just as objects get lighter M Moi goes goes down that's just how the the physics of it work very neutral CG uh zero so it's really not designed to uh fight a slice or fight a hook if you're just trying to hit High straight shots GT1 is definitely one that is worth trying has a little bit higher CG as you'd expect it's about 4 1/2 mm high

00:06:35 - it's really just what it's designed to do be a little bit more of a mids spin High launching driver uh but we really have an awesome series with the entire GT line really excited to see how the GT1 adds to it you've got your spin killers in the GT4 and the GT3 just a matter of how low you want to go and if you care about that horizontal control and then in the GT2 and the GT1 we have just high and straight uh with the GT1 or if you are looking to reduce a little bit of spin maybe give up some

00:07:04 - forgiveness the GT2 is one worth testing think Titleist uh like I said they've got some big shoes to fill with the TSR but I think they've put themselves in a great spot with the GT uh series to do just that so you got some options here but to figure out which one is for you what you need to do log on to golf tech.com and find a coach near you [Music]
