After 2 years, Titleist have just launched their new range of irons. They still have four different head options which go by the same name as their previous models, the AP1, AP2, CB & MB.
The AP1s have the largest head of all four, making them slightly easier to hit than the other three models. They are however, suitable for both higher and lower handicap golfers.
The AP2 irons continue to be a forged cavity back iron, however the position of the tungsten weights within the head has been lowered compared to the previous model making them easier to get the ball up in the air.
The CGs continue to have a muscle back head and the MBs are still blades. Both clubs are suitable for lower handicap golfers who require maximum feel and maneuverability from their clubs.
Please come into the shop for a look at the new clubs (we don't have the CB or MB heads yet).
Titleist have also launched a new range of hybrids called the "816" which compliment their new range of irons. Anyone of our professional staff will be happy to discuss the new clubs with you.
In the shop we have a Titleist fitting station which enables us to custom fit a set of irons / hybrids to your own personal requirements. Click here to see the latest ranges from Titleist.
