TITLEIST GT1 DRIVER
The new Titleist GT1 driver feature ultra-leightweight configurations to help golfers with effortless speed and launch – designed for golfers with moderate swing speeds. The new Titleist drivers are, however, configurable into a standard build to accommodate any golfer who may be searching for mid-spin performance and higher launch.

GT1 drivers (and fairways and hybrids) offer the deepest centre of gravity placements across the GT metalwood family.
“When we began thinking about how we evolve and improve upon the ‘1’ models, we started by tapping into our global network of fitting specialists to understand what it is that would really advance performance for GT1 players,” said Stephanie Luttrell, Director of Titleist Metalwood Product Development. “The resounding feedback that we heard across the board for the driver, fairways and hybrids is that anything we can do to increase launch is going to help this player improve their overall trajectory, consistency and distance.”
Like the GT2, GT3, and GT4 driver designs, Titleist engineers were able to create weight savings (while retaining exceptional sound and feel) via its new seamless thermoform crown made from Titleist’s proprietary matrix polymer. Faster clubhead speed was unlocked thanks to improved aerodynamic shaping while faster ball speed comes thanks to the Titleist GT1 driver’s speed ring and variable face thickness technology – even on off-centre strikes.

Meanwhile, the Titleist GT1 fairways have a shallower face profile for better playability off the turf and a redesigned internal hosel. They also have that same ultra-lightweight configuration to promote high launch for golfers with moderate swing speeds.

NEW TITLEIST GT1, GT2, GT3 HYBRIDS
The new lineup of Titleist GT hybrids offers improved forgiveness and stability along with new flat-weight adjustability – which gives golfers and fitters greater control over the centre of gravity placement to help dial in launch conditions and ball flight.
“When we set out to improve our hybrid lineup, one of the first things we looked at in terms of our design goals was stability,” said Tom Bennett, Principal Product Manager, Titleist Metalwood R&D “Hybrid forgiveness is particularly important because for most players, these are scoring clubs. Eliminating excessive distance drop-off is a huge benefit not just off the tee, but maybe even more so in approaching the green.”
All three models are uniquely designed for different player profiles and each of the three new Titleist GT hybrids boast refinements to their shapes to help improve performance.
GT1: Highest-launching model in the lineup featuring a lightweight, high-MOI configuration.
