To say Titleist has been having success with its TSi metal woods and T-Series irons would be an understatement. Just this past week, the TSi Series drivers were the number one driver at The Sony Open, and in more than one event during the 2020 portion of the PGA Tour season, they swept all major equipment counts from drivers all the way to wedges and putters.

Now, building on the success of the TSi series, Titleist has just launched its newest TSi hybrids on the PGA Tour at the American Express in La Quinta, California.

Titleist looks to be following the design principles of the TSi series with the TSi2 being a wider-soled hybrid intended to help increase launch while the TSi3 is more compact and also included the same SureFit CG (center of gravity) track that can be found in the TSi3 driver and fairway woods.  

The hybrids will also continue to utilize the SureFit adjustable hosel to fine-tune lie and loft and help golfers dial in ball flight.

We don’t have the full technology story yet, but based on the success of the previous generation hybrids both on tour and with regular golfers, we can expect Titleist has pulled out all the stops to achieve maximum performance.

The PGA Tour is back on the mainland and on the west coast this week at The American Express being played at PGA West in La Quinta, California.

That’s not too far from Carlsbad where a majority of the OEMs in golf reside, which also makes it the perfect place to show off some of the latest technology and components to tour players—including shafts.

This week, we spotted the all-new Ascent shaft from Aldila, which judging from the finalized graphics, could be available soon in the retail market.

We reached out to Aldila and parent company Mitsubishi Chemical to get the details on the new shaft and what makes it different from others currently available on the market, and here’s what we know

• The new Ascent shaft is designed to help golfers increase their ball flight apex while still offering lower spin performance and stability.
• The shaft uses unique tungsten-infused prepreg to focus mass towards the tip which in turn improves ball speeds and stability while also maintaining feel.

The shaft also features what Aldila is calling an Impact Stabilization Zone—a section of increased stiffness, which, as the name suggests, helps stabilize the head towards impact. It is designed to pair with the heavier tungsten prepreg at the tip to create an active yet stable shaft that promotes launch while maintaining accuracy.

Shaft specs, pricing, and availability

We don’t have confirmation of the retail availability or the pricing of the new Ascent shaft from Aldila, but we do have the spec sheet, which gives some insight into the options that this shaft will be available in.

At GolfWRX, we love golf equipment plain and simple.

We are a community of like-minded individuals that all experience and express our enjoyment for the game in many ways. It’s that sense of community that drives day-to-day interactions in the forums on topics that range from best driver to what marker you use to mark your ball, it even allows us to share another thing – the equipment itself.

One of the best ways to enjoy equipment is to experiment and whether you are looking to buy-sell-or trade (as the name suggests) you can find almost anything in the GolfWRX BST Forum. From one-off custom Scotty Cameron Circle T putters, to iron sets, wedges, and barely hit drivers, you can find it all in our constantly updated marketplace.
