Am an aging golfer. Will be 77 come September. Did not take up golf until 1985 and like most bought my clubs from a retail store off the rack. Learned the art of getting properly fitted clubs over the past 10-15 years. When I go to see my fitter or should I say fitters. I have two that have been in the business over thirty years and both are Titleist certified. I have not idea if they are D1, D2 or E1, E2. I trust them when it is time for a new set. They put me on Trackman and we go with the numbers. For the past few years not a lot of has changed, my lie is 2* flat and my shafts are + half an inch. I leave it all up to them and we work together in getting a shaft that will give me the distance, accuracy, feel and sound that I am looking for. Have never really taken the swing weight into consideration. I personally like the T300 irons because the are very forgiving, but again, recommend seeing a fitter and see what works best for you.

I would suggest you see a fitter and try hitting the T100S with a shaft that gives you a little more kick without loosing too much control. I think you would love them. Or, you wait until this fall when the new line of irons comes out and see what those have to offer. I have always adjusted every few years as my body continues to age, even to the point of using graphite shafts in the T-MB irons, which were blade-like but hollow with perimeter weighting. Father Time is going to win the physical battle so you might as well accept it and do what you can to minimize the affect. Good Luck!

You should try the T100 or T100s. It’s a good looking club that fits in the players iron category. May be a slight;y bigger profile than what you are used to but you will definitely get some benefits. The technology in clubheads and better shaft options will help you get more distance and forgiveness with a good looking club head profile.

Age is just a number.

I am turning 50 this year and bought T200 irons. Distance is no problem.

Work on your swing speed you will be surprised what a difference a little bit of practice will get you

Just turned 60 and playing T-300's love them and helps provide help with lost distance. Playing better now than 30 years ago.

I'm another old timer (78) also losing distance as he ages. I've got an aversion to thick top lines on my irons, so I as I have aged over the past 10+ years of playing Titleist irons, I've shifted from the AP2's (712s, then 716s) to the T100s's. The slightly stronger lofts of the T100s put me back into the distances I've been comfortable playing for over 30 years. And the best part is, the top line is quite similar to the old places I used for years. Oddly enough, one of the changes made in the most recent fitting was shifting back to stiff steel shafts from the regular steel shafts in my previous AP2/716's. Like Chuck and Dale, I've made these adjustments by working with a certified Titlelist fitter and will continue to do so once the new iron come out later this year.

I'm in the same boat. Now that I'm north of 50 I have lost some distance on most of my clubs. Doing a Titleist driver/3-wood fitting in a couple weeks to get that figured out then going to schedule an iron fitting when the new ones come out later this year.

I agree with the previous posts. T100s look fantastic, feel great and will give you the yardage you are losing and probably more. Look into the Titleist Thursdays and try different head and shaft options

i was using another brand.. moved to t100s and i actaully get a lot more forgivness than people give credit for.. love them. I guess its down to confidence at address

I bet the shafts in your clubs can play a huge part in this situation. Like some have suggested, go see a fitter and see what can help you

Former miz blade player here (Most recently the MP20 SEL). Unless you're still hitting the ball in the center of that dime-sized sweet spot on those MP32s, just about anything currently available will be a massive improvement for you. The T100 series does a nice job of maintaining a thin top line, as does the T100S. While slightly thicker than what you currently have, the improvement will have you forgetting about that in no time. As has been mentioned, go see a Titleist fitter. Regardless what the clubs you get fit for look like, you will see both distance and forgiveness improvements compared to your current set.

If you think you're losing distance at 47, wait till you get to 67!! I'm in the same boat, but at 67,I can't hit a 120 or 130 gram shaft the way I used to. Just losing too much height and distance.I love a small head and thin top line.That's what i grew up playing (anyone remember those old Wilson Staffs with the bore-thru hosel?)My shafts are still stiff, but in the 105-108 range now, and it's made a huge difference.All kidding aside, echoing Dale's comment, sounds like the answer is to keep a "players head" like the T-100 or 100s, and pair it with a lighter shaft.

Same age, 47. Lost some distance when I switched to the T200s but my fitter put me into a shaft with a little more kick and loft. The playability and ball flight more than compensate for the minor loss of distance.

I try not to get hung up on the number on the bottom of my iron and am happy with the result which is often better than what I was doing before.

I am using the CNCPT-03s and it is almost making up for my loss of distance with shoulder issues. What I really need to do is get to a physical therapist to be able to swing pain-free...

With an age almost the reverse of yours, (almost 74), I’d like to take this in a little different direction. Yes, Father Time is the ultimate victor. Something I wish I started 25 years ago was an exercise and stretching program. Working with a level 2 or better TPI certified instructor to tailor a program designed to work on your golf body weaknesses based on an actual assessment It can not only restore some pop in your swing, but long term keep you moving day to day even without golf.
I’ve resolved some back and knee issues with the program for me and the dog gets close to a 5k walk daily. My golf distances are back to where they were 5 years ago. I can now seeing me play into my 80’s. What I like about the TPI program are the assigned exercises are online and for under $200 I can do my workouts in the basement. The time and money of belonging to and paying for a gym membership is not needed.
A good fitter can get you into the best clubs for where you are today. Many of us have either sedentary work conditions or repetitive physical tasks that limit flexibility. Hence the need to include alternative workouts to bring the best us to the fitter.
