Correct. There would be too many shaft sets for a fitting kit to contain all the options for every different length required to fit every iron. Most fitters to have a full set of each of the four models built in standard stock shafts so you could hit the long irons in each model against stock but for fitting, they are the 7 iron. The weight and shaft dispersion results from that club should equate pretty well throughout the set after the build. Very unlikely you would need totally different shaft models and flexes in different irons until you get to a utility iron or wedges.

I’m LH, so the fitters don’t have options beyond the 7 irons. But the fitter from TPI evaluated my (then) irons. My gapping broke down after the 7 iron. So the T200 worked for window and distance and he went with T350 for a 6 iron.
Once delivered, the T350 6 iron replaced a 26 hybrid with correct gapping from the 7 iron. That was a gap before. At a second fitting, we filled in the gaps from the 6 iron to driver. So with an experienced fitter, the results worked even with extrapolating changes.

You could go to TPI fitting to get more than a 7 iron fitting.

I watched a Titleist fitting video online and the fitter said the would be including long irons this year in the fittings. He kept referring to the break point where you need to go to the next iron..ie going to the 200 from 150 etc.. I have a Titleist fitting on Tuesday this week and if they don't have long irons I won't be buying. Its just a total guess otherwise.

I tend to agree with you, Tom. I am positive that actually hitting the longer irons (like a 4 or 5-iron) would yield very different specs than my 7-iron. I've noticed on the TPI fitting Youtube video with GolfWRX and New Nine Golf fitting video for a Regional Fitter in Glencoe Country Club that even people with consistent swings have yielded blended sets determined by actually hitting the various specs. There is another fitting on Youtube by Golfcity done with Andy Inman where he has more than just a 7-iron. I was told by a Titleist Rep that there are other iron fitting heads (2-3-4-5 , 9-iron fitting heads) available to fitters but they would have to purchase those separately - this is entirely up to the individual fitter. I asked if there was a way to search fitters that have more than just a 7-iron head and apparently that isn't available on the website - I would have to call around and ask each one.

Your 7-iron fitting, if thorough, will determine the length/lie on your stock set. If you're standard length/lie on the 7 iron, you'll be within 1/2 degree standard on your 9-iron and your 5-iron. If not, your swing is all over the place. Some tour players go 1/2 degree flatter for the long irons, everyone else has pretty consistent. My clubs come right from TT, through a Tour guy, I still have every club in every set checked again.

I attended a Titleist Fitting Day last October and they had both 7 iron and 5 iron options for fitting because of the possibility/probability of mixed sets. Mind you, this was a big event held over 3 days and they were doing some filming, so lots of resources provided.

But Titleist fittings should have some options if they don't have every shaft in both. At a minimum, you may be able to contact your local fitter and ask. I can definitely see how other retailers (Club Champ, etc) may not have both - given they deal with multiple OEMs and need some consistency.

Good luck!

I would try and get to one of the 2 Titleist facilities. I know they are hard to get into and usually not much access. But I was able to hit 4, and 5 iron with the shaft and spec, I was hitting at Manchester back in April or May.

At my fitting, we went thru the iron set-ups and that resulted in my set-up being T350 and T200 set. Very thorough I thought. Glad we did.

The two local Titleist fittings I've been to in the past year had 5 irons and 7 irons available to hit. The fitter I worked with fit me to the 7 iron then handed me a T200 and a T350 5 iron to hit. I ended up in the T350 4 and 5 iron then T150 6-GW.

At my local Titleist fitting, both times I've been there the fitter had the 7 iron that allows for different shafts to be used with the different heads as well as the 5 iron for each of the iron models. If I remember correctly, the 5 irons were bonded to certain shafts though. He also had the utility versions (driving iron?) of the T200 and T350 as well as the U models.

I had my fitting this past week through Titleist at my local golf course and my fitter did have some of the longer irons available for fitting. Come to find out my 4 iron and 5 iron were going the same distance as my 6 iron so I got fit into a 7 wood which filled the gap perfectly and I ditched both the 4 and 5 irons, I never really played them either.

I recently did a fitting with the standard 7 iron. Just from past history I went with the T150 up to 7. Then T200 in 6,&5. It would be nice to be able to have those options to hit all the clubs I do see where it would be tough for anyone other than Titleist or which ever brand to have all the clubs available. I was fit at a local golf club where I've had lessons in the past. His shop is already full with all the manuf

The 7-iron is right in the middle of the set. For guys that haven't been through a thorough fitting, regardless of ability, a good fitter is only looking at your best shots. Maybe 1 in 5-7 for most. When they dial in your 7, the length/lie will correlate through the bag. Too many combinations to carry around as a fitting van.

I’ve only ever been to a fitting that uses 7 irons only. The only exceptions have been at titleist fitting days where they wheel out the whole line of equipment then they have popped in long irons to try out.

Can't wait until March 17 at River Falls Plantation, going to a driver fitting and getting some much needed help with my driver.
I will report back to let you know the changes that were made.

Hi. As a Titleist fitter, I use 7 irons for iron shaft and head selection, the have standard 4 or 5 iron clubs to test long iron and gapping. Also use those to compare to higher lofted hybrids. It works well

I was fitted + 2.0* using the 7 iron in other set (it is -1/2"; played 695CB 6 iron and MB 7-P). A standard 8 iron is 65* lie angle. My current 9 iron is 65.5* and the wedge set is 66*. My bag reverted to my 2013 set makeup (13/5* driver, 5W-9W-28H-34H, 40-48-53-58-64 on the 9 iron thru 64* wedge). I can also go to 8-F irons on my dad's Apex to tighten things up a bit (they are 1.5* upright). For the past year my irons were a 716CB 7 iron (32*) and MB 8 iron (39*) plus 46-52-58 on the Vokeys. I use T100S for the 9 and PW. I found a Sumo2 SQ 34H a couple months ago and alternated with a T200 8 iron.

Set makeup is a part of fitting too. Not everyone uses 1-3-5 woods, 3-4H and irons plus 52-56-60 wedges. I've been carrying a 64* wedge of some form or another since 2007. Since I have been using a lofted driver since 2011, haven't had a need for a 3 wood. I've broke 40 for 9 a few times since COVID.

Thank goodness Titleist now has the TSR1 line of fairways and hybrids. A 9 wood is a lot easier to hit vs a 21 or 23 hybrid. I have a 70g Diamana stiff on my 23 fairway with 40.5" shaft. The 26H has an S70+ and the Sumo has a 75g stiff. S200 and wedgeflex on the 9 iron and wedges.
