2022 [1]: Titleist launches the TSR4, built around a 430cc low-spin head. 2026: the Titleist GTS4 is on shop shelves. This page puts the two side by side and gives a straight verdict on whether the old club still earns a place in your bag.
The TSR4 in 2022: what it was
The TSR4 was built around a 430cc low-spin head. It was aimed at better players who wanted a lower, more penetrating flight. At 430cc, the head is smaller than the 460cc maximum most drivers use now.
Is the TSR4 worth buying in 2026? A strong used buy
It is recent enough that the face and shaping are close to current models, and it is fully adjustable. For most club golfers, a well-kept TSR4 at a used price is better value than paying full price for the Titleist GTS4.

We list only specs we could tie to a source. A dash means we could not confirm the figure. We do not have our own launch-monitor numbers for either club.
Who should still buy one?
- Buy it if you already hit a low ball flight with enough speed, and you like a compact look.
- Skip it if you can stretch to a recent used model (the last three or four years) — the forgiveness gap is bigger than the price gap.

Buying a used TSR4: checklist
- Sleeve and wrench: make sure the adapter comes with it and that it fits the Titleist system you have. Ask the seller which setting it is in.
- Face: look for cracks, dents or a caved-in look at the centre. A cracked face can't be repaired.
- Crown: sky marks and paint chips are cosmetic; dents are not.
- Shaft and grip: check the flex label. A worn grip costs little to replace; a shaft that is too stiff costs you carry.
- Price check: we could not verify current used prices, so compare recent sold listings before you buy (eBay sold listings).
