Tour Driver

The TSR4 is Titleist's answer to one specific problem: too much spin off the tee. If your drives balloon on you, climb too high, and fall out of the sky short of where they should land, this is the head built to fix that. It sits at 440cc, smaller than the 460cc TSR2 and TSR3, and that compact footprint is the whole point. Less spin, a flatter trajectory, and more run once the ball hits the ground.

This one does not pretend to be forgiving. The smaller head and low-spin design ask for center-face contact and a repeatable swing, and when you give it that, you get a fast, penetrating ball flight that holds its line in wind. Fight the ball down, and the reward is real distance from a lower launch and less backspin.

Most golfers do not need this driver, and Titleist would tell you the same. If you already launch it low or spin it too little, the TSR4 will cost you carry. It exists for the player who has the opposite issue and has the speed to back it up.

• Fast swingers who generate too much backspin and lose distance to a ballooning flight
• Low-handicap and better players who want a compact, workable head they can shape shots with
• Golfers who play in wind often and need a driver that stays down and cuts through it

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the TSR4 too much driver for a mid or high handicapper?

For most mid and high handicappers, yes. The 440cc head is less forgiving on off-center hits, and the low-spin design punishes players who already launch it low or lack the speed to keep the ball in the air. If you slice, top, or struggle to find the center of the face, the TSR2 will give you more speed on mishits and an easier launch. The TSR4 is a spin-lowering tool, not a forgiveness tool.

What's the difference between the TSR4 and the TSR3?

The TSR3 is a 460cc head aimed at players who want adjustability with a normal spin profile, and it uses a track weight to move the CG left or right for shot-shape bias. The TSR4 is 440cc and built purely to cut spin, with front and back weight ports instead of a heel-toe track. Pick the TSR3 if your spin is fine and you want to tune ball flight side to side. Pick the TSR4 if your main problem is spinning the ball too much.

Why is the TSR4 only 440cc instead of 460cc?

The smaller head is what lets Titleist push the center of gravity lower and more forward, and that CG position is what takes spin off the ball. A full 460cc head spreads mass out for forgiveness, which tends to add spin. By going compact, the TSR4 trades some of that stability for the lowest-spinning, flattest flight in the TSR driver line.

Can you actually adjust how much spin the TSR4 produces?

Yes. The head has two weight ports, and moving the weight to the forward position gives you the lowest spin the club can make, while the back position adds a touch of stability and launch. Combine that with the SureFit hosel loft changes and you have a fair amount of range to dial in your numbers. A proper fitting is worth it here so you land on the right combination for your delivery.

What swing speed do you need to get the most out of the TSR4?

There is no hard cutoff, but the TSR4 makes the most sense for players with driver swing speeds in the higher range, roughly 105 mph and up, who are producing excess spin. The point of a low-spin head is to trade some launch and carry for a flatter, faster flight, and you need enough speed to keep the ball airborne after doing that. Slower swingers usually get more total distance from a higher-launching, higher-spinning driver.
