Titleist has dramatically improved its metalwoods over the past five years, and while its drivers like the GTS3 driver have proved increasingly popular on all professional tours, the fairway woods haven’t quite gained the same traction. However, the brand will be hoping that this is about to change following the release of the highly anticipated GTS2 and GTS3 fairway woods.

Designed for maximum playability, the GTS2 fairway pairs a larger profile with a shallower face to promote easier launch and added confidence. As someone who relies heavily on my fairway woods when my driver isn’t behaving, I put the GTS2 fairway wood to the test to see if its promises of enhanced speed and stability can see it become one of the best fairway woods on the market.

At address, the GTS2 sets up beautifully, offering a larger footprint than the GTS3 and one that will inspire towering ball flights behind the ball. Titleist has introduced a new wraparound composite crown that extends around the perimeter, creating a very clean and traditional look that we’ve come to expect from the brand, all while creating a flatter sole that sits the head flush to the turf and invites committed swings from the moment you set it down, much like some of the most forgiving fairway woods.

The standout visual change for me is the tour-inspired, high-polish face. I absolutely love that Titleist has reverted to a silver face over the darker heads we've seen in the past few models, as I feel as though this new look provides a clearer view of the face.

Crucially, it really allows me to see the loft on the clubhead, which gives me the visual confidence to commit to hitting down on the ball properly, rather than feeling as though I need to artificially hit up to launch it and get myself into some difficulty with my club path, therefore producing some fairly erratic shots.

A major concern when brands switch to composite materials is the loss of acoustic feedback, but the GTS2 completely avoids this pitfall and has managed to maintain the same sound and feel that you would expect from a timeless, traditional-looking golf club.

I love the feel through impact - it delivers a satisfying, powerful sound, slightly louder than the likes of the TaylorMade Qi4D and Callaway Quantum, but it feels both fast and incredibly stable.

The performance of the GTS2 was really impressive, largely thanks to a shift in weight lower and deeper in the clubhead, which aligns the center of gravity more closely with the actual point of impact and increases the MOI. The result? I saw really tight dispersion both front to back and side to side, meaning my mishits performed very similarly to those hit out of the middle of the face.

My spin consistency was also incredibly impressive, which created a really reliable, repeatable ball flight. It consistently generated a high ball flight with solid distance (around 260 yards carry) with total ease. Furthermore, the shallower face height proved to be an absolute lifesaver on tight lies, effectively making low-impact shots perform just like center-impact strikes.

With the inclusion of a dual weighting system featuring interchangeable heel-toe weights, a fitter can easily dial in directional control and stability to match your exact swing mechanics, alongside the Surefit hosel that featured in the GT2 fairway wood.

Given the compelling performance, the GTS2 fairway wood even earned a place in our 2026 Editor's Choice awards. At a stock retail price of $399/369, it represents a high-performance fairway wood that any golfer looking for versatility and consistency should test.
