GT FAIRWAY
“The first step in our process when we turn to designing the next generation of a product line is Tour feedback,” said Tom Bennett, Titleist Clubs’ Principal Product Manager. “We get a lot of input from [Titleist Director of Player Promotions] J.J. Van Wezenbeeck from his work with Tour players. With GT fairways, our primary direction was to elevate the flight, but not the spin.”
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 centre 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 centre of gravity in each model to achieve optimal performance. GT2’s CG is pushed lower and closer to the face, producing higher launch and lower spin than its TSR2 predecessor. GT3's CG is moved deeper to allow for higher launch while keeping spin in a low but playable window.
“We had very ambitious CG targets for both models, and the only way we were going to get the CG where we
wanted it was through the multi-material crown,” said Bennett. “That discretionary weight allowed us to
significantly increase launch in both models, drop spin considerably in GT2 and keep spin low in GT3.”
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 to preserve ball speed, eliminate excessive spin and enhance sound and feel.
“For the L-Cup Face, we used Forged 465 Stainless Steel, one of the strongest steels that exists,” said Bennett.
“The resiliency of the face material allows us to go really thin with our L-Cup Face, which keeps ball speed high
on low impacts. It also comes with better feel: Tour players have said that their thin shots don’t feel quite as
sharp.”
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, adding 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 delivers 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.
