Titleist T350 Irons Review – Specs, Lofts & What Handicap Are They For?

“The Titleist T350 series of irons are very intriguing.

With the T350’s Titelist is trying to incorporate tour-inspired performance into an iron that is mostly designed for casual and amateur players.”

I was very excited to get these irons in for testing because I really wanted to see how Titelist – a company known for making tremendous tour-caliber clubs – would combine the worlds of players and game improvement irons. Some of the features of the Titleist T350 irons were modeled after the T200 irons.

But after testing the Titleist T350’s for myself, I would say they are more of a spiritual successor to the T300 irons. In any case, the Titleist T350 irons sport premium features and have a really satisfying feel. But who exactly are these irons for? Read on to find out everything you need to know about the Titleist T350 irons.

Key Features of the Titleist T350 Irons

Hollow-Body Construction

The first feature that  is meant to help higher handicap players is the hollow-body construction. Having a hollow body means that the face is unattached. This allows for more flexing at impact. And with more flexing, you usually get more distance. The only downside is that unsupported faces tend to produce a lot of side spin and are generally unstable. But Titleist has thought of that…

Dual Taper Forged Face

The specially forged face has been designed to be stronger than usually thin forging. The dual taper design allows for higher strength across the face and more importantly, more stability. So while the face is allowed to flex more thanks to the hollow-body design, it still remains stable and mutes spin thanks Max Impact, dual taper forgoing process.

Vokey Design Variable Bounce

Leave it to Titelist to incorporate Vokey designs into a set of irons. The Titleist T350 irons have a variable bounce design that essentially bevels the leading and trailing edges. With the long irons, I was certainly leaving behind smaller divots. In the short irons, I was able to glide seamlessly across the turf thanks to the sole grinding.

Dual Tungsten Weighting

An aerospace brazing process allows for more precise integration of tungsten weights in the heel and toe. Unlike lesser irons, the Titleist T350 irons still have a clean and seamless look at address despite the tungsten weights. Best of all, the weighting gives the irons a more balanced feel and adds forgiveness to off-center strikes.

Capped Cavity Back Design

At their heart, the Titleist T350 irons are cavity back irons. But the cavity is mostly hidden by a back plate. This gives the Titleist T350 irons a sleek, streamlined look. At address, you may actually forget that you’re playing cavity back irons.

Sound and Feel

The Titleist T350 irons have a soft feel at impact thanks to the forged faces. Mis-hits almost feel like pure strikes which may be the only fault of these irons. Sometimes, you can’t tell between a mis-hit and a perfect hit based on feel alone. When you do hit face-center, the Titleist T350 irons produce a loud “thwack.” The sound is actually quite empowering and satisfying but it can draw some attention at the range.

Are the Titleist T350 Irons Forgiving?

During my testing, I found I could get away with quite a bit.

Both the feel and the flight of these irons can be deceptive. For instance, when I was hitting the ball wide toward the toe, I felt like it was hitting closer to the center. And when I looked up at my shot, I again thought I hit the ball pure.

That’s because the Titleist T350 irons produce surprisingly low spin rates. So even when I mis-hit, my ball wasn’t picking up enough spin to produce a pull or a slice. The tungsten weighting keeps all your shots balanced and the forging increases spin consistency across the face.

Combine all that with the exceptional turf interaction and you have an iron set that is forgiving enough for mid and high handicappers.

The Titleist T350 Irons Overall

“The only issue I see with these irons is stopping power.”

The spin is relatively low and the lofts are a bit on the strong side. So less experienced players may have trouble playing the long and mid irons into the green. But overall, they are surprisingly forgiving and have the looks and feel of premium irons.
