Limited gains over prior model

If you were to look at the professional circuits, you would likely see the T100 cropping up, with a compact profile, soft yet solid feel and workability providing users with exceptional all-round performance. 

Aesthetically, and in testing, it was clear to us that it is designed for the competent ball striker, with the thin sole and top line joined by a narrow blade length and barely a hint of offset. What's more, when struck, it's clear that the sensation is different to all the other irons in the T-Series. The feel is more dense and less springy, which is particularly satisfying when you strike one out of the middle. Through the turf, the narrow sole also enters quickly but has been shaped to get out just as fast - creating a satisfyingly crisp and well-formed divot.

The main standout of the T100 though, especially when it comes to the best golf irons for low handicappers, is the split tungsten weighting inside a dual cavity. It has been refined over its predecessor and, consequently, it creates a soft yet solid feel with an element of forgiveness. It’s arguably one of the more stable tour played irons out there and, while it’s not built to be especially user-friendly, there is some help at hand.

Added distance could create distance gapping issues

The T150 bridges the gap between the player's T100 iron and the more distance-orientated T200 iron. How, you may ask? Well, it does it through both its size and construction, with the sole and topline noticeably wider than the T100, as well as the blade length, which we felt is more generous. Along with the sole and topline, the muscle channel behind the face is filled with a polymer to create a more lively feel along with a softer sound. The differences don't stop there though, with the T150 featuring stronger lofts.

In testing, we felt, at impact, it was slightly heavy to hit, but the two D18 tungsten weights, which sit in the dual cavity behind the bottom portion of the face, produce a high amount of mass when making contact with the ball. What's more, the resulting flight was a strong, yet playable one, with the head very stable on off-center strikes.

In our opinion low handicappers, for whom iron play is a weakness, will appreciate the extra size of the T150 as well as the forgiveness. When it comes to the pitch, it isn't harsh or clicky and it feels much closer to a fully forged club than it is a hollow-headed distance iron. Versus the T100, the T150 went higher and had a little more spin for us, which helped it fly in the window we wanted.

Some will want a softer feel

Not as long as we were expecting

Our first impressions of the T200 were positive, as a modern, sleek look gave way to a compact look at address. It is slightly lighter in color than its predecessor, with Titleist working hard to address issues in the previous T200; these included the loud, clicky feel you used to get at impact.

We're happy to report that the work Titleist's engineers have done has been successful, with the reconfiguring of the polymer back plate helping to manage the vibrations that occur at impact. However, we must add that any performance gains, in terms of distance etc, are rather minimal.

In testing, the added tungsten in the head means it was more forgiving on off-centre strikes, with the amount of curvature also reduced slightly. One aspect that did stand out is the T200 flew higher with added spin, which helped the stopping power coming into the greens. Overall, we think there's a chance of mixing this set amongst the T150, especially as you can use the T200 in the longer iron section of the bag.

Titleist T350 Iron Review

Reasons to buy

Super stable

+
Powerful ball speed

Reasons to avoid

-
Low spin a concern for low spin or speed players

The T350 continues to be Titleist’s main game improvement iron offering and, in terms of design, this iron benefits from split tungsten weighting like the T100, T150 and T200 for the very first time, making this a more forgiving prospect versus the T300. The Max Impact technology also sits a little higher and, coupled with the dual taper forged face, should feel more solid and stable over the previous iteration.

Down at address, the T350 has a noticeable amount of offset, but it's the generous footprint that will appeal to a wide range of golfers. Impressively, unlike some of the best distance irons on the market, the T350 doesn't have a chunky sole or thick top line.

So, how did it perform in testing? Well, quite quickly, we were able to deduce that it felt the fastest of the T-Series range and also had the loudest sound at impact. The big positive is that the impact and feel only added to the power aspect, with the springiness coming from a wide range of area. Delivering good launch and spin, it will make a welcome addition to the bag.

Not everyone will enjoy the chunky look

The T400 iron has been designed to be the longest iron in Titleist’s popular T series range, as well as one of the most forgiving irons on the market. First things first, we must note that it has the strongest lofts in the range, but the launch is not compromised because, when we tested the iron, it produced a strong, high ball flight. 

Aesthetically, the size and thick topline of the T400 makes it inviting to hit, with the offset and back of the sole visible to the naked eye. Titleist have crammed in up to 100g of tungsten in each head and, with the wide body shape and Split Sole design, the T400 screams forgiveness.  

Because of the low CG and loft, you would think the T400 would struggle to get the ball airborne. However, this was not the case as we found no issue in getting the ball in the air. Importantly, the fast ball speeds easily put this in the best distance iron category, with the extra forgiveness helping those who struggle with inconsistent hits.

Not very forgiving

To begin with, the 620 MB is one of the best golf blade irons we have ever tested, as the muscleback design produces a Tour-proven flight that is workable and controllable. 

When it comes to the overall technology, Titleist have made sure the Centre of Gravity locations have been designed to allow for shot-making and to deliver responsive feedback. When hit off the face, we found it to be supremely smooth with a penetrating ball flight.

Being a blade, this is really only a club for the best golfers, but those with the necessary ball-striking skills will get a great deal out of it. What's more, Titleist does offer the ability to create a combo set, with MBs in the short irons and CBs at the top end of the bag. Unless you are an elite ball striker, we would certainly recommend going for this for that piece of mind over the ball.

How we test irons

Our testing for golf irons is built upon a comprehensive process combined with the knowledge and expertise of the Golf Monthly test team. As far as the specific procedure goes, before testing, the team will usually attend product launches and meet with the manufacturer's R&D experts to understand the new technology.

When it comes to testing, we often head indoors first to try the irons in a controlled environment. This usually takes place on an indoor simulator at Foresight Sports, with premium balls and the GCQuad launch monitor. Our outside testing normally takes place at West Hill Golf Club, a course with top-notch practice facilities.

We think it is vitally important to do both and continue to test the irons so they have been comprehensively put to the test in different conditions. It should also be mentioned that manufacturers cannot pay for a good review and we make our conclusions from the testing and our experiences. This is because we strive to give the best reviews possible so you can get a greater understanding of the irons themselves.

How to choose new irons

As you have seen, the market for Titleist irons, and the wider golf iron market is crowded and confusing and being sure you're getting the most suitable iron for your game can be a minefield. Hopefully, this piece has given you an idea of what the best options are out there right now, but here is some more advice to help you in your quest to find the best model for your game in this crowded and dense marketplace.

Your Handicap And Ability

This is probably the most important first step: knowing which type of iron best suits your game. This is by no means gospel, but higher handicappers tend to use cavity back irons that offer maximum forgiveness in a larger iron head, while mid-low handicappers tend to use more bladed irons that are forged, offer more feel and control but less forgiveness.

You'll know how good or perhaps not so good your ball striking tends to be, so make sure you invest in a set of irons that matches where your game is out now, not where you'd ideally want it to be. We have great guides that go into more detail on this, so check out our guide on the most forgiving irons if you're a higher handicapper and our guide on the best irons for mid-handicappers.

Price

This will be a major factor in anyone's decision of what irons to go for. As you'll have seen in this list, the price can vary dramatically between irons. Typically, for a set of cavity back irons - those that provide most distance and forgiveness - you'll be looking between $600-$800 for a set of seven irons.

This obviously can fluctuate between brands, and we've highlighted in this list the ones we think give the best value for money in this category. The price jumps quite significantly when looking at the forged and bladed options - up to and above $1000 - but this is par for the course and you'll be getting a high quality, premium product in return.

Custom Fit

This is probably the most essential part of the iron buying process, no matter the irons you're after or how good you are at the game. A custom fit session will make sure you get the right flex and length of shaft, correct lie angle and correct iron head for your game, meaning you'll finish with the best golf clubs that are as suitable as possible for you out on course.

Custom fits can be a daunting process if you're a true beginner or you aren't that confident hitting golf balls in front of people, but they're a vital part of the club buying process. We recommend having a shortlist of three or four iron heads you like the look of before entering a custom fit and then whittling them down to the best for your game during the custom fit process. Custom fits are provided by a number of golf retailers or club professionals at your local golf club.

FAQs

Which Titleist iron is most forgiving?

The two most forgiving irons in the Titleist range are the T300 and the T400. Choosing between the two will come down mostly to preference in looks - the T400 is a larger, hybrid-style design while the T300 is a more of a traditional cavity back.

Which Titleist iron is best for my game?

To find out which Titleist iron is best for your game, we would recommend going for a fitting as this will narrow down your choices quicker. If you are a higher handicapper though, we would recommend going for the more forgiving models of the T300 and T400. If you are a more accomplished golfer, then the T100 and T200 will be the better fit.

Do Titleist make good irons?

Titleist is known for producing some of the best irons on the market that will suit an array of golfers and standards. The brand has seen a number of Major winners use its irons, including Jordan Spieth, and they are certainly one of the most recognized and prolific in the game at every level.
