Russell Henley won the Charles Schwab Challenge<\/a> this weekend with a six-year-old Titleist TSi3 driver and 3-wood, which is noteworthy because he won last year at the Arnold Palmer Invitational<\/a> with the newer GT3 models.<\/p>\n

But Henley wouldn\u2019t have been able to play a TSi3 7-wood like he did this week because no such option existed.<\/p>\n

Instead, two weeks ago at the PGA Championship, Henley was fitted<\/a> into the new Titleist GTS3 7-wood.<\/a><\/p>\n

Seeing the growing trend toward high-lofted fairway woods on the PGA Tour, the GTS3 is the first Titleist \u201c3\u201d fairway wood option to be offered in the 7-wood loft.<\/a> Previously, only the larger \u201c2\u201d and \u201c1\u201d models offered the 7-wood loft.<\/p>\n

Henley previously played a 21-degree hybrid in that spot but worked with Titleist senior director of club promotion, JJ Van Wezenbeeck, at Aronimink to dial in the new 7-wood to get an improved peak height and a 235-yard carry number.<\/p>\n

GTS fairway woods feature a silver face, which help players see more loft at address. Most players respond by covering the ball better. Henley\u2019s 7-wood ended up being set up in the C4 SureFit hosel position, which adds another degree of loft and makes the club one degree flatter.<\/p>\n

The extra loft was probably a result of Henley covering the ball better and needing a touch more loft to get the ball to his optimal peak height. He also went with a half-inch shorter Project X Denali Black 80 TX\u00a0shaft.<\/p>\n

Henley is the second player to win with a GTS3 7-wood in the bag, after Cameron Young won at the Cadillac Championship with the new club after adding it at the Masters.<\/p>\n
