I would like to inform other loyal titleist customers of the wait times I have had for my irons in order to help people know what they may be getting into.
I ordered a set of irons through my home course on April 9th. It was a split set consisting of 4, 5, and 6 iron in the 620 CB's, and 7, 8, and 9 iron in the 620 MB's. All of which having a 1/4" longer than standard KBS tour x 130 shaft in them (fairly stock shaft, pretty common and readily available on 3rd party websites). Stock tour velvet grips shipping loose in the box to avoid labor and shipping delays associated with my preferred grip. Initial shipping estimates were 4 weeks for MB's and then 6 weeks for the CB's due to a shortage in clubheads.
6 weeks rolls around (May 13th), my pro reaches back out to titleist:
- Cb's are in stock, being built currently and shipped the following week. MB's due in mid june due to shaft and head shortage.
May 27th, haven't received any irons. Reach out to my pro who contacts titleist:
- Cb's haven't even arrived to be built and are supposedly waiting on the shafts and heads, estimated arrival June 24th (must have lied to my pro about them being in stock previously and being built.)
- MB's eta June 18th.
June 16th: - CB's arrive at my club - MB's shafts arriving on June 16th, will be built and shipped out the next week.
June 30th, no MB's. Pro reaches back out: - They still haven't received the KBS shafts. Shipment is now due for July 19th. Titleist promises they will be in and shipped to me built by the end of July.
July 22nd. My pro reaches back out to Titleist: - Shafts AND clubheads for the MB are all of a sudden delayed until mid august with no specific date given. Promise they will overnight ship them to me by the end of august but I think I am starting to see a trend here and am willing to bet they will not.
I just wanted to give my story when it comes to lead times in order to maybe save someone from the wait I have had to go through. It is quite frankly unacceptable from my point of view. Over 4 months since the order was placed and still counting. No compensation or consistent and logical explanation given for the wait and false promises. Makes it hard to remain brand loyal

Had a fitting first week in May for a set of T300s. Was told 4 weeks. It has now been 12 weeks with no real response as of yet. Now the 2021 versions have been released. Should I try to update my order to the new Version or just wait it out? I personally don’t hate the look of the 2019 but man I can’t help but feel burned a little. This will be my first set of fresh clubs.

Now the shafts are not "expected" to arrive until August 17...then shipped within 5-7 business days. Just for a laugh, the first "expected" ship date that I was given was May 6. And...again...I was called 1 week after ordering on March 9...to change my grips...in order to (Sam Kinison loud voice) SPEED UP THE PROCESS! All I can do is giggle.

Just ordered 2021 T200s and was told late August/Early September. Was told grips are the hang up now, but I will switch to virtually any grip that is available to accelerate the delivery. I wonder if some of you still waiting for 2020 irons will now get the 2021s. They seem to be ramping up 2021 full scale with an 8/26 retail delivery date.
