Head to head

Titleist GT280 vs GTS300 mini driver

Choose the GT280 if you strike it well, hit it mostly off the fairway and want it for less, new or used.

Choose the GTS300 for more help on a mishit.

The GTS300 is the forgiving one: Titleist sells it on forgiveness, with a bigger head, 305cc against 280cc, and its weight set deeper, which Titleist puts at about 15 to 20% more inertia, the head's resistance to twisting on a mishit. It replaced the GT280 in July 2026. Both come in 13° only, left- or right-handed, at a 56° lie and a 43.5-inch standard length, with a forged face that wraps under the sole, the same face height for shots off the turf, and weight that moves front to back.

    Titleist GTS300

    Titleist's mini driver, which it now sells on forgiveness: a 305cc head with its weight set deeper than the GT280's, and a forged face that wraps under the sole to keep low strikes going. 13° only, left- or right-handed.

    One loft only, 13°, and no flex Titleist calls senior: a slower swing launches a high-lofted fairway wood or a forgiving driver in senior flex more easily.
