SPOTTED: Titleist CNCPT CP-03 and CP-04 Irons
About a year ago, Titleist released the CNCPT irons, specifically the CP-01 and CP-02 models. Founded on the premise of “what if?” Titleist took the reins of the R&D team and let them make the “best” iron.
The CP-01 and CP-02 were well-received, as they had tons of performance underneath the polished, muscle-back profile. So now that more than 12 months of experience has passed, Titleist has deceived to continue to push the envelope and release the new CP-03 and CP-04 irons.
Constructed from exotic high-performance materials that can take up to eight months just to source, each part has been forged and cast to the extreme limits of precision, yielding a strike that generates supreme ball speed with ideal launch and unparalleled forgiveness.
In particular, the new CP-03 and CP-04 irons feature a forged supermetal L-face insert, which is actually the thinnest unsupported, constant-thickness face in golf and, as a result, produces supreme ball speeds with increased launch (mid to low irons). Notably, the CNCPT irons are the first club designs to utilize this rare, super strong alloy.
Additionally, the multi-material, hollow body design allows for optimized MOI and CG placement in every iron through the set.

Furthermore, extraordinary amounts of high-density tungsten weighting were incorporated into heads—making up nearly 50 percent of the total head weight in the lower lofts—provide precise sweet spot calibration and greater clubhead stability. As discussed in greater detail below, at least 100 grams of tungsten on average (mid to low irons) is used in each iron to produce the most generous and forgiving impact possible.
“CNCPT is the dream project for our engineers,” said Marni Ines, Titleist Golf Club R&D’s Director of Irons Development. “We’re on the journey to not only design the ultimate iron – but actually figure out how to make it. We’ve made a huge leap forward with the discovery of this supermetal alloy – the material is so strong and resilient that we’re able to forge iron faces even thinner than we once thought possible. It’s difficult to obtain and extremely challenging to implement into the manufacturing process, but the benefits to the overall construction in terms of ball speed, launch, distance and trajectory are just astounding.”
With respect to each of the models, the CP-03 provides an astonishing balance of power and control in a progressive midsize muscle back profile. The CP-03 is designed with minimal offset has an average of 104g tungsten per iron (3-7) to help with forgiveness.
Meanwhile, the CP-04 advances the original CP-01 design, and delivers that blend of ultimate speed with enhanced accuracy in a player’s improvement head shape. As a result, the CP-04 features moderate offset and has an average of 100g tungsten per iron (4-7).
The new CP-03 and CP-04 will join the better player CP-02 model (which has minimal offset and a blade-sized footprint), and are available for fittings starting today: September 24th. So make sure to head over to your local Titleist Fitting and Trial event (including Titleist Thursdays), held at locations nationwide.
