Titleist Unveils New GTS300 Mini Driver Ahead Of The 2026 Open Championship
Titleist has introduced its all-new GTS300 Mini Driver to its GTS range, with the club already being put in-play by a number of the world's biggest names
Titleist is known for producing some of the best drivers and fairway woods money can buy, with the brand introducing a new model to its GTS range.
Mini drivers continue to grow in popularity, as they tow the line between a driver and fairway wood, with Titleist introducing its GTS300 Mini Driver, which will hit retailers next week.
The notable story is that the new club features a larger, more forgiving design that aims to deliver exceptional distance, control and versatility off both the tee and turf.
Looking to add itself into the best mini drivers list, the GTS300 has a 305cc clubhead, while the overall design has been heavily influenced by Tour feedback, primarily from Ryder Cup stars, and Titleist staffers, Cameron Young and Justin Thomas.
Possessing a composite crown design, Titleist's engineers have been able to save weight and position it precisely so that the center of gravity allows players to hone in their launch and spin numbers.
What's more, like the GTS fairway woods, the L-Cup face design is present. Once again, it's designed to help preserve ball speed and launch on low-face impacts, making it a forgiving option.

As mentioned, Thomas and Young helped play their part in the construction of the GTS300, which also has a dual-weight system to influence the CG position further.
Titleist's GTS range is becoming more and more popular among the professional circuits and, according to JJ Van Wezenbeeck, Titleist’s Senior Director of Club Promotions, "both those (Young and Thomas) players were really excited about GT280 and also had some commentary about potential performance improvements.
"As we worked through some prototypes with not only JT and Cam, but other Tour players as well, we were able to gather valuable feedback and put that into GTS300."
Stephanie Luttrell, Titleist’s Senior Director of Metalwood Development, added: "The main goal in development was to make GTS300 a more forgiving mini driver.
"The increase in volume and shift in CG gave us approximately 15–20% greater inertia. At the same time, we still put a premium on versatility and performance off the turf with this club."

Available in multiple different shaft options, the Titleist GTS300 comes in a 13° loft as standard, as well as Titleist’s Fairway SureFit hosel sleeve. It also has several weight options to hone in factors like launch and spin.
Available in golf shops worldwide beginning July 23, the SRP is £499 with a feature shaft and £669 with a premium shaft.
