For dedicated golfers and Titleist Golf Club R&D engineers, hybrids are considered scoring clubs, not rescue clubs. And the new TS2 and TS3 hybrids, benefiting from the innovations of the Titleist Speed Chassis, allow players to replace their long irons with even more speed, launch and precision.
Better ingredients, better golf. Equipment, apparel, and course reviews. Giveaways, travel, and golf takes. Because golf does a body good.
