Looks

Titleist gives the TSi3 the same black and red color scheme that adorns the other fairway woods in the TSi series. Sitting in the bag, we must admit, the Titleist TSi3 looks sleek and sharp.

The company’s club designers have taken their TSi Fairway designs to the next level by adding a softer toe profile that squares the club face at address.

With the TSi3, the square face appearance provides a more neutral look to aid in shaping shots for advanced players.

Sound

Whether you are sitting on the fairway or the tee box, the TSi3 Fairway gives you that clean sound at impact.

Feel

We gave the fairway edition of the TSi3 very high marks when it came to feel. Lightweight in your hands, the fairway wood produces that lag that generates the power you want to deliver directly to the golf ball.

When you hit the ball dead-center on the face, you immediately know it, something all of our testers noted during their time with the club.

If having an immediate response is vital to you, as it is to us here at Golf Influence, you’ll love the feel and responsiveness of the TSi3.

Performance

The Titleist TSi Fairway Woods, long known for their feel and control, take performance to the next level with the Titleist TSi3 Fairway Wood. The TSi3 keeps the ball from flying too high, allowing golfers to shape the shots they desire with mid launch and low spin.

During our time with the TSi3, we were floored with its feel, power, and workability.

Also, if you want to upgrade the shaft, Titleist can add premium shafts such as the Tour AD XC, Tour AD IZ, Tour AD DI, and more traditional shafts like the Hzrdus Smoke Black RDX to the TSi3 Fairway Woods.
