Equipment

Bruce Sizemore to release fully adjustable, 100 percent milled wedges

Published

on

Seven pieces. Adjustable loft. Adjustable sole. Adjustable face. 100 percent milled. Does that description really do Bruce Sizemore’s new wedges justice, though?

Prototypes of Bruce Sizemore’s MORE wedges, which are available July 4.

Whether you love or hate the way Sizemore’s early prototype MORE wedges look, there’s no question that the veteran club designer has reimagined a category of clubs that has seen only minor changes in the last 20 years. That’s why most golf equipment geeks can recite the laundry list of things that are celebrated when a new wedge is released: More spin. Repositioned mass for a better ball flight. Tighter tolerances and a softer feel. More lofts, more grinds, and more custom options.

Production MORE wedges will not have the “lump” on the toe.

Sizemore’s new wedges have all of that and more (that’s how they got their name), but they don’t look like the others. They’re so different, in fact, that people might question why they had to look so different. They seem like the kind of wedge someone makes when they don’t care about selling wedges. And in a lot of ways, they are, and that’s why Sizemore thinks they’re going to sell.

“I didn’t want to just break the conventional wedge mold,” Sizemore says. “I set out to shatter it.”

While Sizemore isn’t a household name, he’s known in the industry for his work at Copper Stix and the Bruce Sizemore Collection: companies he founded that specialized in premium putters. He also produced a line of putters for SuperStroke before the company decided to focus primarily on grips in 2013.

The MORE wedges can be adjusted for loft, bounce and heel/toe relief.

The MORE wedges have adjustable faces, loft, bounce and heel/toe relief, are are 100 percent billet milled.

Some of Sizemore’s putter designs were radical, but didn’t provide the same shock the systems his new wedges do. The quick assumption is that his wedges are designed to be “anti shank,” and it’s true that raising the hosel does stand a chance to do that. The intention, however, was to help the best golfers in the world keep the hosel of the wedge from catching in deep rough.

The MORE's aluminum hosel weighs just a few grams, allowing discretionary weight to be moved into the club head.

When the wedges are launched, Sizemore says they won’t feature the “lump” on the toe that’s visible in this story’s photographs of his early prototypes. He says he’s also going to make another wedge face that will be released at a later date with a more traditional hosel position. It will appeal to golfers don’t want to see a radically different-looking wedge at address.

In the production model, the weight bar will be removed from the design and the logo will be flipped, according to Sizemore.

“All the components will be compatible,” Sizemore says. “I’m sensitive to the fact that golf is expensive, and I’m not trying to make it more expensive. I’m trying to make it more affordable. It’s kind of how people look at buying a $400 putter. This is a true investment, because you never have to throw it away. From time to time, all you’ll have to do it change the faceplate.”

Friction-milled wedge faces can be replaced, making a wedge play like new again.

Sizemore plans to launch several different types of adjustable wedges that feature his ball-and-socket hosel design. There will be a widely adjustable version that can be set to 52, 56, or 60 degrees, as well as two other models with more specific loft ranges (47-50-53, 55-58-61).

On top of adjustable lofts, the wedges also have an adjustable rear sole attachment that allows golfers to install one of three different “sole grinds,” which is a misnomer in Sizemore’s case. The MORE wedges are entirely machined, so nothing is ground or polished. The three different rear sole attachments range from 4-14 degrees of bounce and use different sole widths and heel/toe profiles to suit different swings and course conditions. Golfers can even add slightly more toe relief or heel relief by inverting the orientation of the washers that secure the rear sole attachment.

Bounce plates can be swapped to fit different golfers and different conditions.

Rear sole attachments can be swapped to fit different golfers and conditions.

“I believe these are the most significant wedges ever introduced to the game,” Sizemore says. “They’re packed full of industry-first, game-improvement performance technologies.”

    And now, just because all you internet hackers don’t like them, I’m getting a set immediately!
    If I’ve learned anything from this site its that if I do the opposite of what the majority here says then I’ll be on the right side at the end. If you have even one Tailor-made product in your arsenal then you’ve proven my point.

    How do you know these wedges are crap have you tried them. Looks aren’t everything
    Some putters look like crap and people use them. These wedges might be the next big thing on the market. I bet if Callaway or Titleist made them you would think they are beautiful works of art

    Honestly, I find these extremely interesting and would welcome the chance to test them out. I feel that new technology doesn’t always have to resemble the old products that came before them and the fact that these look so different from the norm is a good thing for the game.

    As far as I know your not allowed to adjust any clubs (like your driver) during a round of golf, how does he expect to sell these horrible looking wedges if your not allowed to alter them during play anyways? I guess you could argue the everyday amateur could adjust them but then you remove a large portion of the golf market right off the bat. I applaud the ingenuity but this isn’t a great venture.

    All of the usual negative comments are being dragged out, but until someone tries is out and reports back on how it performs I’ll withhold judgement. I would not be surprized if the next generation of this club is more conventional in appearance.

  29. Tom Wishon

    Apr 20, 2016 at 12:08 pm

    That’s too bad he chose to make them so the visual appearance is unappealing – I applaud the creativity in the design for sure, but he’s not doing his venture any favors with the looks, shape and style. Plus I wonder if Titleist may be knocking on his door – some years ago I was working on a wedge design with an interchangeable sole piece to be able to change sole width and bounce and in my search work, I found Titleist had a patent for an interchangeable sole on a wedge or iron. Are you here, Steve Pelisek, what say you about that?

      Apr 20, 2016 at 1:25 pm

      I kind of want to try it more with the way it looks more for the WTF can this really work. Also the tinker’er in me has questions.

      the only thing I would be worried about is how many moving parts there are but im sure this was a concern when they first thought of the adjustable driver. I guess the joints allow for possible vibration dampening materials which could yield a softer feel when struck but these are all questions and assumptions at this point

    This will not sell. No one is going to pay $400 for a wedge unless it promises to significantly improve performance and can actually deliver. The fact that these are not solid construction only adds to the confusion. Why would I want to spend $400 + cost to replace the face when it wears, when I can buy the top name in wedge game for $150 and get 12 – 18 months out of it.

    Looked at it from a purely financial perspective, If we assume this will stay in someones bag for 5 years and each year the face was replaced, assuming 5% discount rate and 2 different face replacement costs the present value of ownership is:
    $25/Face = $508
    $50/Face = $616

    Compare those options, assuming the same parameters (5yr, annual replacement, 5% discount), to buying a $150 wedge every year = Present value of $649

    Would you rather have a brand new Vokey/Mizuno/Cleveland/etc. every year for an extra ~$100-$150 or a shiny new face plate on your completely nontraditional wedge. I will take the more traditional route (just my 2 cents)

        If you’re referring to the best looking, yet most technologically advanced equipment in the industry as garbage, than YES, real players purchase that from TaylorMade EVERY season! Hopefully soon, you’ll be able to increase that 55 mph driver ball speed of yours so you can finally dump your 3 thru 7 hybrid set and the 9 and 11 woods you’ve been rockin and finally get some TM clubs in the bag. Until then though, lay off the troll, it’s corroding your brain.

      You’re assuming he actually spoke to someone who actually knows how to do proper math and common sense before he created this expensive wedge. I know which side I’m on, and definitely not touching this montrosity. Nothing fixes a bad swing anyway.

      The only thing i could think of is if you are hitting an open face bunker shot, you could see the impact close to the hosel. It doesn’t hurt to have it. Opening the face and then hitting out of bunkers, doesn’t always result in center impact, especially not for us amateurs. But then again, I’ve never used these wedges, so I am not sure.

Why Rickie Fowler is switching to a shorter driver at the PGA Championship

Published

on

In a golf world where players are looking to eke out every yard possible, usually by lengthening their drivers to add clubhead speed, there’s one player at the PGA Championship who’s going in the opposite direction. In fact, for Rickie Fowler, his goal off the tee is not about gaining extra distance or yards north to south, but rather about shrinking the misses from east to west. 

Ahead of the PGA Championship and the week prior at the Truist Championship. Fowler mentioned to Cobra Tour Rep Ben Schomin that the driver didn’t quite swing feel the same as everything in the bag. As a result, and with Schomin’s suggestion to try and sync everything up with the big stick, Fowler decided to test out a shorter length shaft. 

“He’s been at 45 (inches), and he’d been at 45 for a few weeks, 44 1/8 (inches) is really is where he is been living really for the most part, for the last couple of years, and is where he is been comfortable,” Schomin told GolfWRX. “It just felt like it was a little long and loose on him.”

Interestingly, Fowler ranks 40th in Driving Accuracy this year on the PGA Tour. It’s his most accurate season with the driver since the start of the decade. But sometimes for players, feel is more important than statistics.

“It was really more of a trying to get the swing to feel the fluidness from club to club to club to try to get it to feel the same,” Schomin added. “And so we took it down to 43 and a quarter, and it was a touch of a ball speed loss, just based on that overall club head speed. But honestly, he squared it up probably a little better. The right miss wasn’t nearly as far. So really, overall down-range dispersion tightened up a fair amount, and he felt confident in swinging it.”

The change in length had Fowler’s caddie, Ricky Romano, beaming at how well he had driven during Tuesday’s practice round at Aronimink. So much so, he was asking Schomin not to suggest changes anymore.

Fowler’s shaft-shortening is one of a few driver adjustments he’s made this season, and to Schomin’s credit, it’s thanks to the fact that he and the rest of the Cobra team had Fowler fit very well into three of the four heads in the Cobra OPTM lineup.

“He had three distinct drivers and the biggest decision was trying to decide which worked best at that time,” Schomin told GolfWRX previously. “He’s played the majority of the season with OPTM X, but has also played a couple of tournaments with OPTM LS. His overall driving stats have been good.”

At the RBC Heritage earlier this spring, Fowler switched drivers, changing from his Cobra OPTM X and into the Tour, low-loft Max K model that Gary Woodland used to win just a few weeks prior.

Now for the PGA Championship, Fowler’s back in the X head, but still using the UST Mamiya LIN-Q PowerCore White 6TX shaft, just a little bit shorter.

“Will he stay there? I’m not sure,” Schomin added. “Could we end up say at like 43 and 7.5 (of an inch). If it’s giving him the same feel of consistency through the bag, then I think we might end up just a touch longer. But if he likes where he is at, he’s confident where he is at, that’s really all that matters.”

If there’s more testing, though, just don’t tell his caddie.

GolfWRX Launch Report: 2026 Titleist GTS drivers

Published

on

What you need to know: As is customary for the Fairhaven-based company, Titleist officially announced today that its GTS drivers are headed to retail, following a successful tour release. The GTS2, GTS3, and GTS4 drivers will be available in golf shops June 11.

Since debuting at the Texas Children’s Houston Open, the new GTS lineup has quickly gained traction on the PGA Tour, with more than 50 players already making the switch to a GTS2, GTS3, or GTS4 driver. Among them are Justin Thomas and Jordan Spieth.

Justin Thomas’ Titleist GTS2 driver (Greg Moore, GolfWRX)

According to Titleist, the GTS series builds upon the performance foundation established by the GT Series, while introducing several major technological advancements, including a new Split Mass Frame construction, refined aerodynamics, and an updated Speed Sync face design.

2026 Titleist GTS drivers: What’s new, key technology

Split Mass Frame and thermoform body

At the center of the new GTS lineup is a redesigned internal structure: the Split Mass Frame. This technology works with a full-thermoform body made from Titleist’s Proprietary Matrix Polymer (PMP), a lightweight composite that enables engineers to reposition mass more efficiently throughout the head. Compared to the previous GT generation, GTS drivers feature nearly double the PMP material, increasing from 13 grams to 26 grams, while maintaining the sound and feel preferred by better players.

The weight savings from the thermoform construction allowed Titleist engineers to strategically separate mass placement inside the head. Specifically, more weight is pushed rearward to improve stability and forgiveness, while additional mass is positioned low and forward to optimize speed, launch, and spin.

In short, golfers are able to maintain ball speed and consistency across both centered and off-center strikes.

Faster aerodynamics

Titleist also refined the aerodynamic shaping of the GTS heads to help players generate more clubhead speed.

The tails of the new GTS2 and GTS3 heads have been raised compared to previous models, helping airflow stay attached to the crown and sole longer during the swing. According to Titleist, the improved airflow reduces drag and increases speed without affecting launch conditions or center of gravity placement.

Typically, aerodynamic gains can compromise forgiveness or launch characteristics, but the weight savings from the Split Mass Frame allowed engineers to preserve preferred CG locations.

New Speed Sync face

The new Speed Sync Face design is engineered to improve ball speed retention across a larger portion of the face. A reinforced perimeter structure helps maximize face deflection and COR on centered strikes, while the upper portion of the support ring is opened up to increase speed on high-face impacts, a common strike location for many golfers. The face also features a variable thickness design to preserve speed and performance across a wider impact area.

Expanded adjustability

Each GTS model includes a dual-weighting system to fine-tune launch, spin, and shot shape more precisely than previous generations. GTS2 uses interchangeable forward and aft weights, while GTS3 and GTS4 combine a rear weight with an adjustable forward track weight system.

Tour-inspired face graphics

The new lineup features redesigned high-contrast face graphics to improve alignment and framing at address, according to Titleist. Sharp visual lines are designed to make it easier to center the golf ball and to perceive loft more easily at setup.

Additional model details

GTS2

  • The GTS2 is the most forgiving model, designed for golfers seeking maximum stability and consistent speed across the face.
  • It produces high launch with mid spin and features a larger, confidence-inspiring profile behind the ball.
  • Standard weighting includes an 11-gram forward weight and a 5-gram rear weight, with additional fitting configurations available.

GTS3

  • The GTS3 is aimed at players who want more control over launch, spin, and shot shaping.
  • Compared to GTS2, the GTS3 offers lower launch and spin while featuring a more compact profile and deeper face design preferred by many stronger players.
  • The head features an adjustable forward-track weight system to further fine-tune center of gravity placement.

GTS4

  • The lowest-spinning option in the lineup, GTS4 is built for golfers looking to reduce excessive spin and maximize total distance.
  • Unlike previous “4” models from Titleist, the new GTS4 features a full 460cc profile that improves forgiveness and stability while retaining its low-spin DNA.
  • Like GTS3, it includes a forward track weighting system for precise fitting adjustments.

What Titleist says

“When we talk about driver design, it’s never about the one feature or benefit — it’s about all of them,” said Stephanie Luttrell, Titleist’s Senior Director of Metalwood R&D. “Ball speed, forgiveness, spin stability, adjustability, exceptional sound and feel… these are all attributes that golfers care about. It’s our job to design a lineup that elevates performance across the board without sacrificing in key areas, and we feel we’ve done that with GTS.”

“We know that forward CGs drive speed with great launch and spin characteristics, but you need to be able to do that with an inertial stability that still preserves ball speed, launch and spin consistency on off-center hits,” Luttrell said. “We’ve never before been able to hit these CG positions and inertia properties at the same time, and we’re achieving that because of GTS’ construction.”

Club Junkie’s take

I feel like every time there is a new Titleist wood release, I figure they can’t outdo their previous driver. And every year, I am wrong and impressed with the performance. The GTS fits right into that narrative again, as I didn’t know where Titleist could go from GT, but they pushed the limits again, and my fitting proved the smart people there found ways to improve.

My past four Titleist drivers have been a 2 series as my swing typically requires a little height, spin, and forgiveness so I figured I would just get a new GTS2 and be on my way. During the fitting, I was impressed by the new GTS construction, its added PMP material, and the advanced adjustability on each model. My fitter, Joey, got to work putting together a GTS2 and we started there. The launch and spin were great, and the consistency on misses was very tight. My average ball speed with the GTS went up a little bit as the new Speed Sync face creates more speed away from the center.

Joey then built up a GTS3 in 11 degrees, but I figured this wouldn’t have the stability I needed for tight dispersion on my miss hits. That thought was quickly erased after a few shots, and I really liked the more center start line and reduced draw on the misses I was seeing. We tried a few different settings and shafts to dial in the details in order to get the best fit. Having a forward and rear weight in the head allowed Joey to set up the GTS3 with a heavier rear weight to keep the launch and spin up, while the Sure Fit hosel set flat created a more center start line for me. My misses were not nearly as far left, and I was really impressed with the consistency on the spin and launch when I didn’t hit it in the center.

Titleist again created a wood line in GTS that delivers improvements over previous drivers while keeping the traditional look and feel you expect. More adjustability, better off-center speed, and 3 drivers that are playable over a wider range of players should make these extremely successful in fittings.

Titleist launches new GTS2 and GTS3 fairways

Published

on

Titleist has today introduced its new GTS2 and GTS3 fairways.

Lower and deeper center of gravity (CG) positions, new adjustable heel-toe weights and advanced clubface innovations drive total performance in the two tour-proven models.

New GTS fairway technology:

  • Wraparound composite crowns: Unlock lower CG positions for higher launch and lower spin as well as more CG depth for added forgiveness.
  • Refined shapes and profiles: With two distinct setups, with GTS2 featuring a shallower face height and larger address profile compared to GTS3’s deeper face and more compact profile. Both models feature flatter sole designs for better performance off the turf.
  • Dual-weighting systems: The dual-weighting systems allows for personalized performance, with interchangeable heel-toe flat weights helping to fine-tune CG location across the face.
  • A forged L-Cup face design: The new face design is optimized for GTS and works to preserve ball speed, maintain launch conditions and enhance sound and feel on low-face impacts.
  • Tour-inspired polished clubfaces: To help players see more of the clubface at address.

GTS2 Fairway

 

The new GTS2 fairway is designed with a shallower face and a larger profile than GTS3, ideal for players with more sweeping deliveries with their fairway metals.

 

GTS2’s new face height, inspired by tour feedback, was designed shallower than the prior generation GT2 model and more in line with the GT1 fairway. Each loft in GTS2 leverages a shallower profile except for the 13.5-degree, which maintains a slightly taller face.

 

With its new dual-weighting system, the ‘2’ model now has heel-toe CG adjustability.

Lofts: 13.5, 15.0, 16.5, 18.0, 21.0

Dual-weight system: 11-gram weight in heel, 5-gram weight in toe (standard)

GTS3 Fairway

 

The new GTS3 fairway is designed with a deeper face and a more compact profile, ideal for players who hit down on the golf ball more with their fairway metals.

 

New to the GTS3 family is a 21-degree offering, giving players two distinct profiles in Titleist’s 7-wood loft.

 

Instead of the track weight system featured in prior generation ‘3’ models, GTS3 now benefits from adjustable heel-toe flat weights.

Lofts: 15.0, 16.5, 18.0, 21.0

Dual-weight system: 11-gram weight in heel, 5-gram weight in toe (standard)

Price & Availability

The new GTS fairways are available for fittings and pre-sale now and will be in golf shops worldwide beginning June 11 priced at $399 (standard) and $599 (premium).
