Titleist will launch the latest generation of its popular T-Series irons at this week’s designated event on the PGA Tour, the Memorial Tournament at Muirfield Village. In total, four new irons will make their first public appearance at the event, the T100, T150, T200 and T350, as Titleist’s tour seeding and validation process for the clubs gets under way.
The current range, which comprises five models – the T100, T100s, T200, T300 and T400 – was launched two years ago and it looks like Titleist is somewhat shaking up the models and naming convention within the new line up. The T150 is a brand new model, likely replacing the T100s as a slightly more distance-orientated players iron. It is yet to be seen if the T350 iron blends the attributes of the T300 and hybrid-style T400 although based on the images released by Titleist and on social media, this could well be the case.

One of those is Jordan Spieth, who has had T-Series Titleist irons in his bag since they were introduced four years ago. He explained the enduring appeal of the brand’s irons in a company press release.
“Titleist has always been achieving, it seems like, perfection in the details. It’s always been a great product and it’s just trying to figure out that little bit of an edge. There’s never any corners cut. It takes what it takes, and it eventually comes from some of the input we have but also what they see across the board with all their players,” he said.
“It seems like everything is taken in… Like, ‘OK, that makes sense. We’ll do something a little bit different here or there.’ And it’s never just the same thing. They’ve always looked for a little bit of a different angle, and I think that that’s really cool when you’re partnering and trusting those clubs to do your job.
Images have also been circling on social media of a new prototype muscleback iron in the bag of Cameron Young, which could well represent the replacement to the existing 620 MB iron.
The latest iteration of T-Series Titleist irons will be used across the three practice days prior to this week’s tournament, with…
