What you should know: The latest T100 irons bring subtle changes aimed at improving long-iron launch, tightening dispersion, and enhancing performance from the rough—all while maintaining the classic profile that has made T100 the most played iron on the PGA Tour since 2019.

The Deep Dive: When it comes to elite-level forged irons, Titleist’s T100 has earned a reputation among the company's staff players as a benchmark. Introduced in 2019 to replace the AP2 irons, T100 was quickly adopted by many elite golfers and has been an anchor in brand's tour-level lineup ever since. Knowing that, you can understand why Titleist didn’t reinvent the wheel with this update—but it did refine a few spokes.

The T100 irons have a thin topline and very little offset, creating a look that accomplished golfers typically prefer.

The enhancements made to the updated T100 irons align with the same overarching goals that designers were tasked with for the entire T-Series: create higher launching long irons, more consistent spin in the scoring clubs, and better carry distance control throughout the set.

To achieve this, Titleist designers added a muscle channel to the 3- and 4-irons, which lowers the center of gravity and raises peak height without compromising feel or trajectory control.

The 3-iron through 7-iron have also been created with a new Variable Face Thickness (VFT) designed to help preserve ball speed on slight mishits. Is the T100 as forgiving as the T250 or T350—absolutely not—but the variable thickness face provides a touch of help without reducing feedback or control.

Tungsten in the heel and toe of the T100 enhance stability without making the irons larger.

From a spin standpoint, more aggressive, steeper-walled grooves in the 7-iron through pitching wedge help retain spin from the rough and in damp conditions. It’s a small change, but for skilled players who like to work the ball or attack tucked flags, it could make a difference. The dual-cavity construction and high-density tungsten weights in the heel and toe area are carry-over features from previous generations, but they still help to maintain stability and control across the face without making the T100 irons larger.

One detail that won’t go unnoticed by fitters and gearheads: the lofts on the new T100 are now one degree stronger than the previous generation. That brings the 5-iron to 26 degrees, the 7-iron to 33 degrees and the pitching wedge to 45 degrees—still well within “player’s iron” territory—but strong enough to address the feedback Titleist received from both PGA Tour and LPGA players.

The looks in the address position have not changed: thin topline, minimal offset, clean sole. This is still very much a Tour iron at its core. Ludvig Åberg, Jordan Spieth, Russell Henley, and Justin Thomas (who uses the T100 in his blended set) have all put the new model in play.

T100 vs. T150

If you’re wondering whether you fit better into the T100 or T150, here’s the breakdown: The T100 is all about control and feel, while the T150 is built to be a touch faster and more forgiving. The two irons share many design elements, including the new VFT face, progressive grooves, and dual-cavity chassis, but the T150 is slightly larger and has one-degree stronger lofts across the board. It also features a more pronounced muscle channel long irons through the 7-iron, making it better suited for players who need help launching the ball higher or generating a bit more speed.

That said, the two irons are designed to blend seamlessly. Elite players could benefit from using T150s in the long irons for added launch and T100s in the scoring clubs for control.
