What stands out about the TS3 lie setup?
The TS3 moves from 56.5° at the Option 1 to 57.5° at the Option 4 — a total progression of 1°.
Every meaningful lie step is 0.5°.
There is 1 repeated lie value where adjacent heads share the same angle.
For dynamic fitting, Option 3 at 57° is the best central reference.
For a fairway wood, lie fit is most useful for centre contact and address fit rather than as a cure for a large left/right miss.
Use the Titleist SureFit hosel rather than bending the head. This category uses 0.75° loft / lie increments.

Titleist SureFit lie-angle testing for the TS3
Begin at A•1 for right-handed or D•4 for left-handed and establish a strike / launch baseline.
Titleist specifies 0.75° loft / lie increments for this club category.
Use left / right movement in the Titleist chart to fine-tune direction after trajectory is stable.
Compare centre strike, start line and curvature across several solid shots before keeping the setting.
Should the Titleist TS3 be more upright or flatter?
Test more upright when…
- Supported upright setting improves centre contact
- Start line improves without hurting trajectory
Test flatter when…
- Supported flatter setting improves centre contact
- Start line improves without hurting launch
Do not change lie just because…
- You skipped the standard baseline
- You are using a SureFit chart from the wrong category / handedness

Because these heads use different playing lengths, judge dynamic lie with the actual club being fit rather than applying one lie correction across the whole family.
Dynamic lie changes with delivery, shaft deflection, playing length and setup. For SureFit metals, use the Titleist chart for the exact category and handedness. For irons, wedges and putters, use a qualified fitter or putter technician before bending. Titleist SureFit guide.
