Crossfield ruined his channel by spending too much time trying to ridicule his friends. Dan you and Lester have a great blend and ALWAYS respect you friends and guests. Keep up the great work please.
played some t300's in the US last week at PGA National. Absolutely loved them. Currently playing AP2's so looking to change in the New Year. Hopefully Father Christmas is kind to me! :)
Great video tried the T300and it blew every other iron out of the water, worked even better than the T400 for me and a nicer price! Long and so forgiving, great feel and sound too.
I am struggling with the T400 but couldn’t make the switch to the older T300. Your video discussing what the change in the new T300 mean to golfers like me that play in the 18 hcp range. So I just tried the new T 300 and realized, unlike all the other reviewers, that the new T300 is better built for me. So I just ordered a new set. Great review. Keep up the thorough and well thought out reviews. JF Maryland
Very good review, I appreciate how you analyze clubs from the perspective of the golfer that the club is designed to use. I also appreciate how you talk to us through the camera lens Dan, it’s as if I’m standing there on the range and you are discussing the clubs with me like a playing partner. Well done.
Age 63 and swing speed is not going up from here :) ... was fitted for the T300 last year but waited for this year's new model as the first gen T300 was too much like my AP1s. Was looking for more launch and forgiveness into my senior years. So glad I waited. The new T300 is 7 yards longer in carry than first gen T300 and much tighter in dispersion. They made some tweaks too the Tensei Red shaft as well ... so ordered them on the spot. 6-W2 blended into my H1 hybrids and Vokey high bounce 56 SW. Happy Titleist customer !
What is the gram weight on the shaft you were fitted for? Is it A flex? Was there an upcharge for the shaft you selected? I was fitted for the Mitsubishi fubuki MV 50/ 48 grams A flex. Best results but fitter did not know big that shaft is an upgrade? What were your specs? Spin rate? Etc. I was able to ave like 5500 spin rate. Regards
I think the new T300 looks much better than the previous iteration. I would not have considered the previous version; whereas I’m definitely considering this current version. Also I’ve never gamed a Titleist iron.
Just came back and was able to compare the 7-irons of the old and new T200 and the new T300. The blade length of the 2 T200 irons is exactly the same. There wasn't much difference in flight and dispersion for me between those 2. The new T300 was definitely more forgiving when I hit it low on the face. Yes, it is a bit thicker, but the blade length is still pretty nice. They are not shovels. T300 also flew higher, higher launch angle with a lower loft than both of the two T200's. I have a 25hcp and my swing speed with the 7 iron was 73 mph. All clubs had the amt red in teg flex. (tried other shafts but they didn't work as well)
Dan, love your videos. One big thing I’ve found in choosing the correct irons is peoples ego’s. Golfers that play scratch golf or are single digit handicappers are either terrible putters or are missing greens and that’s why they are not scoring better then they are. For people to think that because they have a lower handicap that they should or need to be hitting blade or blade type (t100-200) irons is missing the boat on improving their game. If golfers would do a better job of analyzing their game and what needs to be improved, like hitting more greens, more of them would choose clubs like the t300 and see improved results. An old friend in the Publix that I played with was a plus 2 handicap and used cavity back irons and when I asked him why he said to me that they were so easy to get near the pin that it felt like cheating. People need to lose the ego if they want to better their game. Jmho
I really think the old T300 was a complete Dog for looks and would not be interested for that reason alone but just ordered the new ones on performance and looks!
Finally a Titleist that I might not be embarrassed to at least try. Agreed that there's finally a differentiation between the T200s and T300s. Curious to try the T200s but at least now if they don't work out the T300s should be a good fit (at least for some lofts with a combo set). I think this was the best video of the T series irons -- well done.
I love my 2019 T300 irons.... best game improvement iron for ball height feel and decent angle I have ever hit 👍... hope there not much difference in the new version my have to upgrade LOL 😄
I game 712 AP2 from 7 to 9 and 712 AP1 from 4 to 6. Wasn’t thinking about upgrading as irons are forever (See Lester’s ancient Ping Eye 2 iron), but I can see how blending T200 and T300 in the same way makes perfect sense for someone like me.
Hi Dan loved the video on T300 comparison new & old models, would like to have see you hitting some 8 & 9 irons, wedges, as all the testers only hit 7irons, as they don’t have the tungsten
Hi Dan thanks for the nice reply on my last comment, I just rewatched your video & loved your thoughts on the pitching wedge needing to fit into the gap wedges, it’s all very well hitting your 7iron further but my game relies on wedges into greens to score (I missed this on 1st watch) Thanks Dickey
Hi Dan, just wanted to tell you, to me when you include your opinion on the clubs being demonstrated it adds a lot more to the presentation. Kind of like the 300's. Cheers from Texas.
I got mine from TGW about 4 weeks ago, good clubs, about 15 yards longer than my Rouge pros. However, the six iron was defective, something loose in the head. What a headache trying to get the six iron replaced. I have to send it back to titlest, will take 4 to 6 weeks to get it back. I thought TGW would just send me a replacement, ahhh no, had to go back to Titlest. At the least TGW could send me a dozen ProV1's for the hassle. Doubt that I will ever buy clubs at TGW, or anywhere online again.
Dan when talking about features , perhaps more close ups of the irons to visualise what you are talking about , video from medium away doesn’t capture what you are trying to convey , meant as feedback to improve channel, part from that great video and analysis
Dan, can you do a vid on how new 2021 T300 compares to Sim2 Max and G425 for mid to high handicappers ? Especially foregiveness and sweet spot I.e golfers who hit low in the face and towards toe
My question would be, is the new T300 worth the extra money or should I just grab this set of 2019 T300's that I'm looking at now for $500? I'm thinking the new ones aren't 50% better although they cost 50% more.
How about telling us how it feels to hit. Not interested in what you think about the looks. After all the t300 is not marketed at you. No comments from you at all about whether the new model is a better club than the old.
Good review and discussion about 2019 v 2021 models. I’m probably in the market for new irons this year and T200 looks interesting. Will have to test them vs 790, 921, Apex and ZX5 and see what suits me best (gaming old x16s still). Interested to see what works best at the top end and possible blending options in each brand.
I think the new T300 look a lot more like the old AP1 716 and 718's, with the undercut cavity at the back, but with the Mi "button" on the back. I'm keen on testing the T200 and T300's to replace my 716's
I bought the prior gen t300 and it seemed like it almost bounced into the ball and didn't give me a clean strike. I play the ping i210 and they have much better turf interaction. I definitely am wanting the Titleist driver, though.
@@DanHendriksenGolf tremendous vid. !!!! Is the Mitsubishi fubuki MV 50 48 grams iron an upgrade charge? I got fitted yesterday and that shaft gave me best results but fitter had no idea if this shaft is an upgrade charge. Please advise. Thanks best regards
Meant to say. I am in my mid 60s. Speed swing about 75. Ball speed about 90/95. Gutter put me in A flex/ senior lite . The Mitsubishi 48 grams was best launch and spin for me. I assume I need to learn how to compact the ball better to get spin rate into the 6000s?? Best regards
Interesting discussion on who the new clubs are aimed at. I can see a combo with T200 & T100s but not sure on the T100s & T100. You would have the natural gap between clubs & also the added gap from the stronger lofts at the transition point, it might work with people struggling with low irons… but surely if that was the case they would not be attracted to this type of club. Having played with a few more people using this power clubs, I can see the benefits it brings in enjoyment & distance. In general these are improvements on last models.
Any chance you could compare T300 and Wilson D9? I’m being fitted on 21/9 and was going down Cobra T-Rail route, but Wilson D9 when tested were just as consistent. They are about £200 cheaper than the Cobras too. T300 looks nice too. Any other models I should be considering? Planning to get 5 or 6 iron to PW, with hybrids and maybe a couple of wedges either side.. currently playing Ping i E1 irons but looking for more length and forgiveness, thus consistency..
Great review Dan. Are the new T200 the alternative to the AP3s? Will be upgrading my irons as soon as I can get a fitting booked. T100s and T200 are what I’m thinking so far.
I purchased a new t300 8 iron and I found I cannot get it airborne . Most of the time it only gets 3 or 4 feet in the air and the distance is al lot shorter . I am currently playing last years model and I have a difficult understanding why there is so much difference. Is it possible the iron is not to spec?
t100s and T200 definitely. Booked to fit in late August. Also, the T200 blends perfectly into the Utility range. One issue I don't think you touched on was the cavity of the T300. It has a few nooks and crannies. After a couple rounds (especially a damn day) will be filled with dirt you can't get out.
You’re way too caught up with looks with these clubs, performance is what matters. You talk very little, if at all, in this video about performance. I know this was done a year ago but I purchased the 4 & 5 irons to mix with my T100S’s and they feel and perform great.
Worst review I have heard on this new set of clubs ... the top line is better disguised with the mat finish chrome blended top line Lofts are the same and new model has features built in that absolutely enhance feel and performance
Does the new version max impact 2.0 nodule on the back extend to all the T300 irons? The previous model T300 only had the max impact nodule "Star ship enterprise thingy" down to 7 iron - shorter irons did not have this.
Just another shiny bauble. New irons aren't going to fix anyone's game. They may provide some help, but not all that much in the scheme of things. Showing off new irons for manufacturers may help keep you posting content I enjoy so I won't complain, but, I really don't care one way or another about any manufacturers new clubs.
