Titleist TSR4 Golf Driver Review

92 overall

The Bottom Line

TSR4 is 430cc, which means it has a smaller, more traditional head shape. It can provide more dialed-in spin numbers for a wide range of golfers. Again, Titleist's stock shaft offerings are outstanding, enabling you to get more precision. TSR4 isn't for everyone, yet it can fit into more golfers' bags than the previous iteration.

Pros

In its natural state, low and forward center of gravity for fade and low spin characteristics. Adjustable weight positions to optimize spin player to player. Decent performance across all three metrics.

Cons

The smaller head size will be unappealing to some. True forgiveness is not its specialty. Poor ball strikers might want to avoid this driver.
