There has been a big demand recently for mini drivers — or larger, low-spin, fairway woods — from every manufacturer. This week, at The Players we spotted Titleist with a TSR2 wood that definitely fits into the mini driver catagory.
The TSR is marked with “2W” on the hosel, but when we looked on the USGA conforming list website, it is listed as a 13-degree head. Titleist’s SureFit hosel system is in place so you can remove 0.75 degrees or add 1.5 degrees of loft, while also being able to adjust the lie angle.
To go further with the adjustments, the TSR has two movable and interchangeable weights on the sole and back of the club, similar to the setup of the TSR4 driver. Usually, this setup is used to move a heavier weight to the back for added launch, spin, and forgiveness. Moving the heavier weight forward to the sole typically will lower the spin and launch for the players who need it.
This TSR looks to have a much deeper face and larger size than the current TSR2+ fairway that is currently available. The club has no markings, and Titleist isn’t dishing details yet, about its construction so we don’t know if it is a titanium head, steel, or a combination of a titanium face and steel body.
