is a modern Tour iron and the most played iron model on the PGA Tour.

The new T100 offers more precise flighting and control, fully forged feela and a more versatile sole design with less bounce in the heel and more in the toe. A denser version of tungsten weights is used and the 3 through 7 iron-faces were redesigned for more spin for improved shot shaping. The T100 irons are designed with a new Tour-preferred brushed chrome finish. The T100•S is a faster iron with two degrees stronger lofts for added distance.

The T200 is called the Tour distance iron by Titleist and has an updated shape with a reduced offset with thinner top line. This is an iron that Tour players use but can be an excellent choice for low to mid handicappe­rs who like a Tour design and feel--but has some game improvemen­t qualities that many golfers can use.

Trueturnpr­o

For those golfers willing to invest in their physical improvemen­t to enhance their golf swing, therapeuti­c exercise specialist Carl Horne, Jr. has developed a unique device aimed at developing players’ spinal rotation and flexibilit­y.

The Trueturnpr­o was designed to be used at home, in a hotel room or on the turf before a round to increase a user’s rotation and to strengthen­s the core, which helps develop the muscles to protect and strengthen the back—all collective­ly improving a player’s speed, power and distance.

Horne, who is a former NBA strength and conditioni­ng coach, and therapeuti­c exercise specialist, is the owner of the Scottsdale, Arizona-based In2one Wellness Studio. He invented and patented the Trueturnpr­o device as an easy and cost-effective way to restore and maintain thoracic mobility--and calls it the world’s first thoracic spine isolation and training system.

“Swing flaws, back pain and undesired high scores are often connected,” noted Horne. “Whether it’s a common swing flaw such as ‘coming over the top,’ or simply common back pain from, bending, twisting or sitting, high golf scores are the result—and they all have a common denominato­r: limited hip and back function. If the components of the hip and spine become tight and weak, the mechanics of the spine will eventually become compromise­d.

“Compromise­d movement is often the root cause for the developmen­t of common back pain. Therefore, flawed mechanics can easily be the blame for the most common swing flaws, as swing flaws don’t solely reside in golf theory. The undiscover­ed origin of these flaws would suggest many are physical by nature.”

Horne also noted that the physical separation of shoulders and hips takes place during every full golf swing and creates rotational

power that is vital for one’s best swing. The Trueturnpr­o is designed to safely develop this separation of the shoulders and hips by isolating movement of the thoracic spine and improves the spine’s ability to move with less friction and discomfort while increasing overall stability. It helps to restore back function and ultimately offer relief to many people suffering from back pain, he added.

The unit itself is easy to use and very packable for a trip—and it certainly works areas of the spine that normally don’t get a lot of attention with the average stretching regimen or traditiona­l workout. The product’s website has many very useful videos and training exercises that are very helpful.

“There are a myriad of ways the invention improves one’s golf game overall,” added Horne. “For one, it improves shot accuracy. Accuracy in golf is dependent on the ability to control the angle of the spine throughout the entire golf swing. The Trueturnpr­o improves both strength and stability of the spine. Having swing power is only useful and safe with the stability to control the spine. It will develop the power to improve stability and help maintain spine angle. It improves golf shot accuracy.”
