In October 2026, in every Titleist driver family more than a year old, the forgiving 2 was worth more used than the 3 that better players reach for.
A TS2 was worth $173 and a TS3 $159; a TSi2 $211 and a TSi3 $208; a TSR2 $263 and a TSR3 $228; a GT2 $333 and a GT3 $320. The gap is small in some years and big in others, but it always runs the same way. Here is every Titleist driver from the 913 to the GTS, what each number means, what changed each generation, and what each one is worth used today.
The short answer
Titleist launches a new driver family about every two years: TS in 2018, TSi in 2020, TSR in 2022, GT in 2024 and GTS in 2026. Each comes in numbered heads, from the lightweight 1 to the low-spin 4.

Launch prices are Titleist’s US prices with a stock shaft, the minimum advertised price it announced at launch (the GTS was announced at an MSRP of $699). From the TSR on, premium shaft options cost $200 more. The year is when each head reached US golf shops.
What Titleist’s numbers mean
Since the TS, the number after the letters tells you who the head is for. Titleist describes each head rather than publishing a key, but the descriptions line up every generation:
- 1 is the lightweight build for moderate swing speeds; Titleist aimed the TSi1 and TSR1 at swings under 90 mph. It always arrives a few months after the rest of the family.
- 2 is the forgiving head: 460cc, high launch, weight set back for stability. Titleist pitched the TSR2 at the player who “tends to make contact across the entire face”. That is most golfers.
- 3 is the player’s head, with adjustable weighting in the sole (Titleist calls it SureFit CG) to tune the flight toward a draw or a fade. Slightly lower launch, slightly less forgiving.
- 4 is the low-spin head for fast swingers. It was 430cc from the TS4 to the GT4; the GTS4 is the first at 460cc.
Before the TS, Titleist used D2 and D3. On the 915, the D2 was a 460cc “full pear” built for maximum forgiveness with a slight draw bias; the D3 was a 440cc head that spun about 250 rpm less. Same split, fewer choices.
Year by year
2026: GTS2, GTS3 and GTS4
The GTS made its tour debut at the Texas Children’s Houston Open in March, was announced on May 13 and reached golf shops on June 11, 2026, at $699 ($899 with a premium shaft). Titleist’s lines: the GTS2 is “speed with maximum stability”, the GTS3 “speed with optimized precision” in a more compact head, and the GTS4 “speed with maximum spin reduction”. The body is now thermoformed from Titleist’s own polymer to save weight, and that weight is split low-forward and toward the back. Used: GTS2 $555, GTS3 $569.
A driver this new has barely started to fall. When we checked in October 2026 the GTS3 was worth $21 more than the GTS2, the one family where the 3 came out ahead.
2024 and 2025: GT1, GT2, GT3 and GT4
The GT went into play at the Memorial in June 2024 and into golf shops on August 23, 2024, at $649 ($849 premium). Its headline was a Seamless Thermoform Crown, a light polymer that wraps down onto the sole and frees weight to place low. The GT2 is the higher-MOI head, the GT3 has the sliding weight track, and the GT4 is the 430cc low-spin head. The GT1 followed on February 21, 2025, also at $649. Used: GT1 $251, GT2 $328, GT3 $328, GT4 $320.
2022 and 2023: TSR1, TSR2, TSR3 and TSR4
In golf shops September 23, 2022, at $599 ($799 premium), with a new “boat tail” shape for less drag. The TSR2 and TSR4 have a variable-thickness face Titleist calls Multi-Plateau VFT, built to hold ball speed on mishits; the TSR3 has a Speed Ring face and the weight track. The TSR4 is the 430cc low-spin head, with a heavy weight that sits forward for the least spin or back for what Titleist called “TSR3.5” performance. The lightweight TSR1 reached shops on February 23, 2023, at $599. Used: TSR1 $219, TSR2 $240, TSR3 $226, TSR4 $239.
The TSR4 is the odd one. When we checked in October 2026 it was worth $18 more used than the TSR3, a reversal of the usual pattern. Our read is that the golfers who need a low-spin 430cc head know exactly what they want, and there are fewer of them on the market.
2020 and 2021: TSi1, TSi2, TSi3 and TSi4
Tour seeding began at the Safeway Open in September 2020, and the TSi2 and TSi3 reached US shops on November 12, 2020, at $549. The face was a new aerospace titanium, ATI 425, which Titleist said was about 30% more ductile than the usual 6-4 titanium. The TSi3 brought a five-position weight track. The lightweight TSi1 and the 430cc low-spin TSi4 followed on February 26, 2021, both at $549. Used: TSi1 $192, TSi2 $194, TSi3 $175, TSi4 $187.
2018 and 2019: TS1, TS2, TS3 and TS4
The family that dropped the old 9xx names. The TS came out of what Titleist called the Speed Project, and debuted at the 2018 U.S. Open at Shinnecock Hills, where Titleist counted 17 players switching that week. The TS2 and TS3 launched that September at $499, with a crown about 20% thinner and a lighter, faster face; the TS3 added the adjustable weight. The lightweight TS1 reached US shops on June 27, 2019, and the 430cc low-spin TS4 joined the family that year, both at $499. Used: TS2 $173, TS3 $158.
2016: 917 D2 and D3
Announced September 8 and in golf shops October 21, 2016, at $499. A second-generation Active Recoil Channel (a deep slot in the sole that flexes at impact) and SureFit CG, a swappable weight that shifts the center of gravity toward the heel or toe. The D2 is 460cc, the D3 440cc. A used 917 D2 is worth about $136.
2014: 915 D2 and D3
Announced October 1 and in shops November 14, 2014, at $449. The first Active Recoil Channel, paired with a Radial Speed Face that thins toward the heel and toe. Used: 915 D2 $124.
2012: 913 D2 and D3
Announced August 31, 2012 and shipping that November, at $399. A 460cc D2 with a slight draw bias and a 445cc D3. Used: 913 D2 $106. The older 910 D2, the oldest driver whose shafts Titleist says fit a TSR, is worth about $98.
Mini drivers: GT280 and GTS300
The GT280 reached shops on April 18, 2025, at $499: a 280cc head at 13°, built two inches shorter than the GT driver. The GTS300 followed on July 23, 2026, at $549, with a 305cc head.
Used, a GT280 is worth about $330; in October 2026 that was within $5 of a full-size GT2.
Which used Titleist driver is the best value?
Line the forgiving heads up by generation and the used price climbs in uneven steps. When we checked in October 2026: TS2 $173, TSi2 $211, TSR2 $263, GT2 $333, GTS2 $579. Each step back from the GT saved $38 to $70. The step from GT to GTS cost $246.
That last jump is the whole story of a new driver. It hasn’t had time to fall, and the first year is always the steepest drop. A used GTS2 cost more than twice a TSR2 when we checked, for two generations of refinement that most golfers would struggle to find on a launch monitor.
So our pick is the TSR2. It is a 2022 driver Titleist built for golfers who don’t find the center every time, it has the Multi-Plateau face and boat-tail shape, and it costs about $240. If you want to spend less, the TSi2 ($194) is the best of the cheaper ones. On a tight budget, a TS2 ($173) is still a modern Titleist; the 917 and older are fine for a beginner and little more. Every other Titleist we price, woods and irons included, is on our Titleist page.
Better players have a different bargain. Because the forgiving 2 holds its value better, the 3 from the same family costs less: in October 2026 a TSR3 was $35 cheaper than a TSR2. If you want the weight track and can find the middle of the face, that is $35 back for the head built for you.
The one we’d skip is the GTS, for now. Give it a year. If it’s a TaylorMade you’re weighing it against, TaylorMade drivers by year has the same table for that brand, and used driver prices covers the rest.
Shafts and the SureFit hosel
Every Titleist driver from the 910 on has the SureFit hosel, with 16 settings that change loft and lie independently. Titleist says all TSR drivers are compatible with TSi, TS, 917, 915, 913 and 910 models, and lists the GT as compatible with TSR, TSi and TS. So a shaft from an old 913 fits a TSR, a TS shaft fits a GT, and a used driver whose shaft you don’t like is an easy fix.
Check before you buy a GTS shaft. Titleist hasn’t stated GTS compatibility in its launch release. And the GT280 and GTS300 mini drivers take Titleist’s fairway sleeve, not the driver one.
Titleist’s schedule tells you when to buy. Each family has arrived about two years after the last, and each one a little earlier in the year: November 2020, September 2022, August 2024, June 2026. Whatever is current drops hardest in its first year, so the smart money buys one generation back, the season after the new one lands.
Questions
What is the newest Titleist driver?
The GTS family: the GTS2, GTS3 and GTS4, in golf shops since June 11, 2026, at $699 with a stock shaft. The GTS300 mini driver followed on July 23, 2026.
What do the numbers on Titleist drivers mean?
1 is the lightweight model for slower swings, 2 the most forgiving, 3 the player’s head with an adjustable weight track, and 4 the low-spin head for fast swingers. Before the TS, Titleist used D2 (larger, more forgiving) and D3 (smaller and, from the 915 on, lower spinning).
When did the Titleist TSi2 and TSi3 come out?
They reached US golf shops on November 12, 2020, at $549. The TSi1 and TSi4 followed on February 26, 2021, also at $549.
When did the Titleist TSR2 come out?
The TSR2, TSR3 and TSR4 reached golf shops on September 23, 2022, at $599. The lightweight TSR1 followed on February 23, 2023.
Is the TSR2 or the TSR3 better?
The TSR2 is more forgiving and suits most golfers. The TSR3 has a sliding weight to shape the flight and suits consistent ball strikers. When we checked in October 2026, a used TSR3 was $35 cheaper than a TSR2.
Which used Titleist driver is the best value?
For most golfers, the TSR2: a forgiving 2022 head for less than half what a used GTS2 cost in October 2026. The TSi2 and TS2 are the next steps down.
Do Titleist driver shafts fit other Titleist drivers?
Yes, across most of the range. Titleist says TSR drivers are compatible with TSi, TS, 917, 915, 913 and 910 models, and the GT with TSR, TSi and TS. Mini drivers take the fairway sleeve instead.
