Hi guys!! Performance wise would you guys still lean more towards the Titleist T150 over the Mizuno 245? Is the Mizuno 245 more forgiving than the T150? More like the T200? I would love to see a head to head with the 245 and T150!! Thanks, Joe

T150 is more like a 243 than a 245. 245 is basically a T200. 243 is essentially a slightly larger and more forgiving T100

Got fit today and ended up with the 243s, I was a shocked. I’m a 10 handicap and never would’ve hit them if the fitter didn’t put it in my hand. Every aspect of 243 was better for me than 245, t150, ZX5 etc. I get too much shaft lean and the 243s helped with height, spin and descent angle. Another example of go get fit and go in with an open mind!

I have 225s and it took a lot of work to get the gaps right. 4-7 is fully hollow body and 8-PW is semi hollow body and GW is more blade/wedge like. The 7 to 8 has a large gap because hollow body is slightly hotter, the PW feels great but isn’t as hot, and GW isn’t hot enough. Just raising for awareness because everyone I know that plays, including myself, these needs to dial in the gaps to be effective with them.
