In our forums, our members have been discussing Titleist’s GT2 7-wood. WRXer ‘mudgolf’ kicks off his thread with his very impressed reaction after trying out the club, saying:

“I just demoed the Titleist GT2 7 Wood with the Tensei 1k blue 65 shaft. It was remarkably easy to hit from all different kinds of lies and even off the tee. It launched high and landed softly even from the rough. I envisioned it replacing my 3 hybrid. The problem is that I seemed to hit it a little shorter than my 4 hybrid. Needless to say, I was very surprised. It was so easy to hit, I would love to game it, just not sure how to get more distance out of it.

Thoughts?”

And our members have been reacting and sharing their thoughts on the 7-wood in our forums.

Here are a few posts from the thread but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.

sniper: “I was fit for the same club but turned down to 20.25 and +1/2 inch. Definitely goes high and sits soft. It would be a 3 iron/3 hybrid replacement for me. I haven’t trusted the fitting enough to order it. In a previous fitting I was fit to same setup but with 1k Black 85-S. I haven’t fallen in love with the feel of GT2 so I’ve bought a G440 Max 7W off BST (I play a G430 Max 3w). GT2 will be a backup plan for me if I don’t like the G440.”
Ty_Guy: “I love it. I did a casual fitting the other day for the GT2 7w, comparing it to 3 different heads over two fittings. All just in stock stiff or regular shafts. Idea being I want this to be an extremely easy clubhead to hit without any thought or effort. Tried all the major brands except Ping. Same setup with the 65 Tensei Blue beat out everything. I compared one 7w model from each brand–sometimes the low spin, sometimes the max. Callaway’s TD came the closest, but nothing felt as solid through contact as the GT2. I installed an 80g shaft in there and it’s been a wonderful club. In fact, I’m so happy with it, I plan to compare my 5w to Titleist’s offerings next time I’m at the shop.”
mikes919: “I demoed this a few weeks ago and found the same thing. Loved how it felt. Was easy to hit high and straight. Didn’t carry as far as I expected. 97ish driver swing speed, I was getting about 195-200 carry from the 7 wood. I expected maybe 10 yards more. It’s about the same, maybe a bit less carry than my 3H at 20.5*. But with a much steeper landing angle. So the 7W would definitely hold greens better.”

Slab city on the Korn Ferry Tour — Lead Tape Report

This week, we have our Tour Photographer, Greg Moore, on the ground at the OccuNet Classic at Tascosa Golf Club in Amarillo, Texas, for the 14th event of the 2026 Korn Ferry Tour season. With that, we see some great things in the Lead Tape Report as we roll into Amarillo.

Joel Thelen

Monday Qualifier, Joel Thelen is in the field this week. He has played on the Korn Ferry Tour for a full season in 2023, and he is back in action this week. A couple of clubs caught my eye this week in his bag.

First off: His trusted Titleist 816 H2 hybrid. This club came out in October of 2015, and it still remains strong in the bag. Also, take a look at this Odyssey White Hot OG 7, putting a capital S in the 7S model. This custom neck has some impressive lean for an arm-lock-style putter. The bottom of the putter is covered in tape for optimal weighting.

Mitchell Meissner

Taking a look at Mitchell Meissner’s bag this week, we have some great lead tape coverage. Top to bottom working from fairway metals, irons, and wedges. We can see on the short irons and wedges that there is tape at the base of the grip, adding a little counterbalance. Along with that, some tape on the short irons and wedges as well. Moving to his putter, he rolls the Odyssey 7 Bird putter. Meissner putts left-handed and strikes the ball right-handed.

In our forums, one user has offered up a prompt for the true sickos, inviting fellow forum members to share every set of irons they’ve ever owned. As to be expected, this is a lengthy forum topic.

@Lamosteve began:

Can you name every set of irons you’ve owned? Here’s mine

Spalding Dots
Spalding Eclipse
Ram Lazer FX
Lynx Parallax
Mizuno EZ Comp
Ben Hogans
Cleveland CG Red
Taylor Made R9s
PING i20

Our members in the forum have been offering up their own collections. Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.

macedan: “Started with a hand-me-down Golden Bear set from my brother when I was in high school, never really played more than once a year or got into the game until about summer of 2017. First purchased a set of Cleveland CG4’s (I actually really miss this set sometimes, soft & not terribly large for a GI iron), moved into Nike Vapor Fly’s by the end of the year. Those lasted until spring of 18 when I decided I wanted new, so I traded them in for TM Rbladez. Honestly, although I liked the Rbladez, poor decision on my part, I think this was really about the only time so far that after a week or two I was kicking myself for not staying with what I had. Rbladez stayed with me until late last summer when I switched to P790’s and (knock on wood) I am hoping this will be my longest lasting set.”
JimmyC59: “MacGregor Jack Nicklaus Triple Crown. Palmer The Standard. Still play these.”
