TITLEIST THE #1 BALL IN GOLF ha launched some mid-season new products, and acquired a KJUS a premium sportswear provider.
ON THE CLUB SIDE. The New Ultralight Driver TS1 is now availble for purchase in your pro shops and retail stores.
The new driver was developed as part of the new Titleist Speed Project, and the new 275 kight gram-weight was created.
The weighting on this new club, was cut back to allow for maximized launch and distance at moderate swing-speeds. The TS1 continues to allow for usage of the Titleist SureFit Hosel, but with a high MOI.
“There are so many golfers that can benefit from the performance of our TS1,” says Josh Talge, Vice President, Titleist Golf Club Marketing. “”For seniors, juniors, women-really anyone who is the moderate swing speed player-TS1 is an absolute powerhouse. Because you can swing as smooth and easy as you want, and ball just takes off. The distance feels effortless.”
“With our four new models-TS1, TS2, TS3, and TS4-we know that any golfer who walks into a fitting. Can find a Titleist Driver that will max out their speed and performance,” said Talge.
The TS1 driver with it’s 275 gram weight, makes it 45 grams lighter than TS2, 8 gram lighter head, that will equal faster clubhead speed.
The Ultra-lightweight stock shafts include the Fujikura Air Speeder and MCA Fubuki Max Velocity at 40 or 45 grams. Lofts are at 9.5, 10.5, (RH-LH) and 12.5. MAP $499.00
