The 2025 Titleist T150 irons offer everything that players love about the T100 but with upgrades to the forgiveness, launch, and ball speed. They lean heavily toward the players side of players distance.
Introduction
In golf, the difference between success and failure is often infuriatingly small. On the green, fractions of an inch separate makes and misses. In the long game, one extra degree of face rotation or a strike one groove too high can turn a great shot into a stinker.
Knowing that the margins are small, Titleist created an iron family that allows for some of the most precise fitting in golf. In this review, I’m taking a close look at the 2025 Titleist T150 irons, the set meant to give the skilled player that fractional boost in forgiveness and speed that can turn good rounds into great ones.
Looks
Forget everything else you may know and just look at the 2025 Titleist T150 irons. The top line is thin, it’s compact from heel to toe, there’s very little offset. It’s a players iron if one ever existed. This is a gorgeous club, one that should put a smile on the face of any skilled player.
Unfortunately, we’re golfers, and we have to do the comparison to the T100 (above, right). Titleist describes the 2025 T150 irons as having a “classic, player-preferred shape with a slightly larger head size than T100.” The word “slightly” is doing the heavy lifting in that sentence. The T150 is just 0.5mm longer from heel to toe. It does have a thicker top line, but I’d implore you to flip between the solo picture and the side-by-side shot and see if comparison isn’t truly the thief of joy.
In the bag, the T150 and T100 are nearly identical. Both have an even more minimalist aesthetic than their predecessors (full review of the 2023 Titleist T150 irons HERE). A moderately sized “Titleist” is the focal point, and the model number is tucked into the cavity. A matte finish reduces glare and makes the wear that you’re inevitably going to put on these irons less noticeable.
Sound & Feel
Like the T100, the 2025 Titleist T150 irons are forged irons that deliver a soft, solid feel. The club feels strong behind the ball, as you would expect from a more traditional iron. In addition to the satisfying feel of impact, you’ll get precise feedback through your hands. Even thin strikes won’t sting, but you will know exactly how good your strike was.
There is a modest difference between the T150 and T100 in terms of sound. The 2025 Titleist T150 irons are a bit more lively and crisp than the T100. I rated the T10 as “90% quiet ‘thud’ with 10% ‘click’”. For the T150, I might shift that to 85/15. As with the look, these irons are noticeably different when they’re side-by-side but difficult to tell apart on their own.
Titleist T-Series Iron Fitting
Titleist has long been a leader in custom fitting, but they’re taking it to an even higher level with the 2025 T-Series. They’ve given their fitters two impressive new tools: a SureFit-style hosel on the fitting irons and the ability to change head weights. With the new fitting system, players can test irons up to four degrees upright and as much as two degrees flat. They can also remove a degree of loft or add up to two. In the past, the player and fitter could only make an educated guess about these types of adjustments before ordering their set; now they can know for sure that they have the fitting perfected.
While the tools have improved, the core of Titleist’s iron fitting philosophy hasn’t changed. They’re focused on three Ds – distance, dispersion, and descent angle. While distance is clearly important, it’s meaningless if your shots don’t find their target or land softly when they get there. Titleist’s approach is also extremely scientific. Every Titleist fitter knows the key numbers that a player needs to achieve with each iron.
Fitting each iron individually is why 90% of Titleist’s iron fittings end up with blended or combo sets (a set of irons that combines multiple models). A player might be able to hit their required numbers with a T250 in the 7I through PW, but they can’t create enough speed or launch at the 6I. That’s when the fitter transitions the player to the T350. You might even see three different models in one bag – all that matters is getting the right performance.
Titleist has made combo sets even better with the 2025 T-Series family by creating a unified look. They rectified the one major flaw in the 2023 T-Series by giving every iron the same matte finish. Just looking at the soles, you wouldn’t have any idea that the bag below includes three different iron models. Additionally, they made each model look more similar in the bag and at address. Only the T350 [review HERE] has a different offset spec, and the branding is the same across the board.
Performance
If you read my review of the new T100 irons [find it HERE], you know that I’m in love with those irons. You also know that three 2025 Titleist T150 irons ended up in my bag – the 4I, 5I, and 6I. The explanation of why I’m carrying a combo set goes a long way to explaining the differences between the two models.
Looking at the specs, the T150 irons have lofts that are one degree stronger than the T100 which helps to boost the ball speed slightly. With the 4-6 irons, I was on the borderline of creating enough speed with the T100; going to the T150 put me safely into the optimal range.
More important for me was the added launch of the 2025 Titleist T150 irons. These irons feature a muscle channel (see above) through the 7I (the T100 has this only on the 3I and 4I). This helps to lower the CG and produce slightly higher launch angles for more carry distance and softer landings, things I definitely need in my longer irons.
Third, the 2025 Titleist T150 irons have a bit more forgiveness than the T100. Both models have variable face thickness, dual-cavity construction, and loads of tungsten to make them more consistent, but the T150 is also a bit larger. Just like its brother, the T150 is on the leading edge in terms of forgiveness relative to size. This is still not the iron for players who use the entire face, but it’s shockingly stable on small to medium mishits. In my testing, my misses with the T150 were measurably better than with the T100.
What makes the 2025 Titleist T150 irons such a brilliant set is that you get all of these small performance upgrades without much sacrifice in terms of shot control. Perhaps a Tour player could credibly say that the T150 is less workable than the T100, but I surely can’t. Whenever I made a decent swing, I got exactly the result I wanted. The T150 does default to a slightly higher trajectory, but I could still flight it down without trouble.
Finally, Titleist says that the T150 irons are in the “players distance” category alongside the new T250 irons. Having tested both, I’d say that 2025 Titleist T150 irons lean very heavily toward the “players” side of “players distance” while the T250 is more comparable to the players distance irons from other OEMs. The T250 is larger, more forgiving, and has stronger lofts for more ball speed.
Conclusion
I had a lot of different ideas about how to conclude this review. A lot of them involved further comparison to the #1 iron on Tour, but I think all that is unfair to this set. The 2025 Titleist T150 irons are amazing clubs. They have a surprisingly high level of forgiveness, they elevate the ball well, and they produce plenty of speed, all in a compact shape that looks great from every angle.
