Spotted: Titleist 915 Fairway Woods and Hybrids
Titleist’s new 915 fairway woods and hybrids were spotted today at the 2014 WGC-Bridgestone Invitational at Firestone CC, just one month after the Titleist 915D drivers were spotted on tour at the Quicken Loans National.
Titleist is mum on the details of the new clubs, but we can tell from the photos that there will be two new fairway woods: a 915F and a lower-spinning 915F.d. There will also be two new hybrids: a 915H and a lower-spinning 915H.d.
On the tech side, the entire 915 line of drivers, fairway woods and hybrids have adjustable hosels and slots on the front of their soles that likely increase ball speed and forgiveness, particularly on shots hit off-center.

Tour Edge Golf has today introduced the all-new Exotics mini driver, engineered to deliver a powerful combination of speed, control, and versatility in the long game.
The Exotics Mini combines a titanium face with a stainless-steel body in design to balance ball speed with stability and control, creating a versatile option at the top end of the bag.
At the core of the design is Tour Edge’s proprietary Combo Brazing technology, a high-precision thermal bonding process that seamlessly fuses a titanium cup face to a stainless-steel body into a single, continuous structure. By eliminating energy loss found in traditional multi-piece constructions, Combo Brazing is designed to deliver faster face response, more efficient energy transfer, and a uniquely powerful yet controlled feel.
The multi-material construction also allows mass to be positioned lower and deeper in the head in a bid to increase stability, while the thin titanium face is engineered to maintain ball speed across a wider impact area.
“While the initial goal was to enhance control and versatility in the long game, Combo Brazing ultimately drove measurable gains in ball speed and distance within the mini driver category. In robot testing, we’ve documented higher ball speeds, higher launch, reduced spin, and increased carry and total distance compared to leading models.” – Vice President of R&D Matt Neeley
In addition to distance performance, the Exotics mini emphasizes forgiveness through a heavier stainless-steel body that shifts mass toward the perimeter. This configuration increases MOI relative to traditional all-titanium mini drivers, helping preserve ball speed and directional stability on off-center strikes. Paired with Pyramid Face Technology from the Exotics metalwood line, the design is intended to support consistent speed across the face.
To further enhance MOI, a lightweight carbon fiber crown frees additional mass that is strategically repositioned low and deep in the head in design to improve stability and promote optimal launch with controlled spin.
“We designed the Mini to be about five millimeters shallower than other mini drivers on the market. That change improves playability off the deck. From a clean fairway lie, it can function as a strong 3-wood alternative while still providing control off the tee.” – Tour Edge CEO David Glod
An adjustable hosel system allows for loft and lie tuning to dial in trajectory and shot shape, while a fixed 13-gram rear weight helps stabilize the head through impact to improve dispersion consistency. The Exotics Mini Driver is available in 11.5 and 13.5-degree lofts in right-handed models.
Pricing & Availability
The Exotics Mini Driver is available for pre-order beginning today for $399.99 USD at touredge.com, and will be available for purchase at retail outlets worldwide on May 22, 2026.
In our forums, our members have been pitting a Srixon ZXi combo against a TaylorMade P7CB/770 combo. WRXer ‘edutch22’ is on the hunt for a new set of irons and kicks off the thread saying:
“Looking at picking up a new set of irons and think I’ve narrowed it down to Srixon ZXi combo or Taylormade P7CB/770 combo. I am currently a 5 cap and allbeit I feel irons are my weakness. My miss is a little to the toe side. I am decently steep at 4-5 down. Always thought I am high spin but recently on trackman my 7 was spinning at 5800 roughly.
My question or looking for thoughts on which one would benefit me more from a forgiveness standpoint? Or is there another iron is should be looking at entirely? I only get to play about once or twice a week, if I am not playing a 2-3 day event. Thanks in advance.”
And our members have been sharing their thoughts and suggestions in response.
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.
- manima1: “You just can’t go wrong with Srixon ZXi7.”
- MattM97: “You have to hit them to know, the V-Sole on the Srixon can be make or break for many.”
- dmeeksDC: “P7CB is more forgiving for me than ZXi7 because my main miss is low middle and the P7CB still flies and spins great on that miss. These are both really nice irons but I like the P7CB more than the Zxi7 and the P770 (or P790) more than the Zxi5. The Srixons are larger so if that gives you confidence that is the way to go. I don’t feel like I get any benefit from the V-sole and the P7CBs live up to their high Maltby forgiveness rating so the TaylorMades have been great for me.”

What kind of shaft is in the FD?
Dylan

I just hit both the F as well as the FD last week, It’s stock shaft is an Aldila Rogue in FD and Diamana S+ in the F version.

The clubs look to be technologically advanced over previous Titleist models, but the paint-fill looks like it was done by an inexperienced counterfeiter. Hopefully the production model looks much more refined.

These clubs looks cheap and dorky. I hope they perform better than they look. Not impressed.

Don’t just a book by it’s cover. I have hit the full line of 915 metals. I gained 17 yards of carry over my 913 D2 and I dropped my spin rate by 700 RPM’s. The 915F and 915H were easer to hit and launched higher off of the deck with less spin. I hit all of 915’s with the same shafts and I have in my 913.

So they pretty much took the Adams XTD sole design and gave it a much improved paint job…great!
Bert Macklin
Jul 30, 2014 at 10:48 am
The new alignment marker is GARBAGE. Hot, broiled garbage.
I do not understand the move away from the standard mark. It looks like a rough draft sketch, or a knockoff. Everything else about these things looks sleek and refined, and then you’ve got a spooge mark on top of the club. Ridiculous.
That said, I can’t wait to hit them.
Mike
Jul 30, 2014 at 8:54 am
Interesting that they’re going back to club numbers while still including the loft on the hosel.

Are yall really comparing Taylormade to Titleist???? At least Titleist doesn’t come out with new clubs every six months. Taylormade has to buy players Titleist doesn’t, players come to them. Taylormade is a joke in my opinion. Top Pro golfs leave Titleist bc they go for the money. Titleist knows players will come to them so they dont have to worry.
Regis
Jul 30, 2014 at 11:30 am
Phil Michelson used to be with Titleist. Now He’s with Callaway. Last year in a tournament he was gaming a TM SLDR driver (well documented) that was painted over so as not to be identified. If he wanted to “step out” on his brand why didn’t he use the Titleist?

Jul 30, 2014 at 11:34 am
Do you really believe that players “come” to titlest? They are paying guys just like every mfg. You really think a player turns down dollars to play their equipment?? Doesn’t happen.

Absolutely brainwashed comment. The Phil comment says it all!

Oh my Dear Lord. 913 f or 913h has better look than 915f or 915h. They also follow what taylormade do. Front c.g and I can’t see the defreny between the f.d with f or h with h.d. that can make customers confused. Haha but will see wich one is good. But because the looks. Nooo

Titleist doing the low/forward CG with a slot? Looks like my TaylorMades just got validated. Loft Up+
MHendon
Jul 29, 2014 at 5:12 pm
Not sure where your getting the low/forward CG from, there’s no mention of that in the article but Titleist has always offered two models one with the CG farther back and one with it more forward. Plus the slot innovation or channel what ever you want to call it was being done by Nike and Adams before Taylormade. So no real credit to Taylormade on either one of those.
MHendon
Jul 29, 2014 at 11:30 am
I think what these clubs show us along with everything else on the market is how worthless a patent is.
paul
Jul 29, 2014 at 8:18 am
Pretty. Slot make ball go farther is a good thing. Even if its copying everyone else.
Mark

Jul 28, 2014 at 10:39 pm
I liked this club when it was called compression channel and it was made by nike three years ago.
Steve
Jul 28, 2014 at 11:43 pm
Adams created the compression channel. Nike and innovation don’t even belong in the same sentence when it comes to golf equipment.
Robert G
Jul 29, 2014 at 9:48 am
Nike don’t belong? Please, Nike Covert and Covert 2.0 are some of the best woods made the last few years. Run the numbers against all the others, they beat out just about everyone.
RogerinNZ
Jul 29, 2014 at 3:41 pm
Robert, he said Nike AND Innovation,
Meaning they don;t invent, just refine.
I was at a TV sales presentation in 1989.
The speaker kept saying we were First with this
and that etc.All we wanted was the V2 or V3,like software !
Covert 2 are Great not Covert 1!
Smart move by Titleist to adopt whats newer and WORKS!
I liked my VR Tour !

Actually Wilson had this technology in their Reflex irons decades ago! Google it.
MHendon

Lol you just killed the credibility of all these club experts on here who weren’t even born yet when those clubs where introduced. Good work BcavWecllh I was pretty sure I’d seen some really old clubs with slots but didn’t have concrete prof.
Jeff Daschel
Jul 31, 2014 at 9:27 pm
I have a set of 1979 Ben Hogan apex Director Irons& woods and the woods have a “speed slot” whittled into the sides and bottom

Disappointing from titleist, nothing new or special. Hopefully performance speaks for itself. Anyone know when titleist will release 915 line?
JJ Man
Jul 29, 2014 at 11:46 am
Played with a clup pro who is playing in the PGA, so Titleist sent him the 915 – said he picked up 20 yards with it with same shaft
mhendon
Jul 29, 2014 at 6:50 pm
If he picked up 20 yards then his old driver was either persimmon or had a crack in the face. I don’t buy that for a second.
Regis
Jul 30, 2014 at 11:33 am
He lost me with the “I have a friend” intro only to be followed by a club pro playing “in the PGA”
BcavWecllh
Jul 30, 2014 at 11:36 am
Agreed. Do people realize how hard it is to pick up 20 yards?
DK
Jul 30, 2014 at 12:38 pm
Not that hard if you’re playing an old Titleist driver. If these new metals are significantly less spinning it’s possible…
MHendon
Jul 30, 2014 at 5:32 pm
That was kind of my point DK, but he’s a club pro so I doubt he was gaming anything much more than a year old.
Mateo
Jul 28, 2014 at 7:17 pm
Yes please. 910’s were amazing. Still using them.
913’s weren’t very good.
Can’t wait to try these.

Adams was first i believe which is why taylormade bought adams and then threw up on the brand. But anyway who cares i think they look slick im a ping guy but will definitely sample the kool aid . High five ! how much ?
Steve
Jul 28, 2014 at 11:45 pm
Funny, Ping is who it looks to me like they are trying awfully hard to mimic. i series fairways/hybrids look suspiciously similar.
mhendon
Jul 29, 2014 at 6:54 pm
Actually they look suspiciously like the 913’s which looked suspiciously like the 910’s which where on the market before the Ping I series of woods you’re comparing them to.
mhendon
Jul 28, 2014 at 6:35 pm
Here’s hoping Titleist goes back to more traditional none adjustable woods and hybrids.

Jul 29, 2014 at 12:38 pm
The cycle will come around. A new line of clubs every 2 years means it may be back sooner than you think.

I dont know if it will happen the adjustable heads just make it too easy to fit more golfers
