“you go and hit game improvement clubs and then you think this is just so much easier”

During a TaylorMade fitting the Qi irons proved long, forgiving and high-launching while keeping an aspirational look, ideal as long-iron additions to a players set.

+ the facts · 4 pros · 2 cons
  • +Long with strong lofts but high launch
  • +Low spin still holds greens with good land angle
  • +Clean aspirational look, chrome plating for durability
  • −Too long to slot cleanly into a full players set without regapping
  • −More offset and thicker topline than a players iron

For: Better players wanting an easy long iron or hybrid replacement at the top of the bag

“The Qi iron is an extremely low spinning iron”

A powerhouse distance iron that is easy to hit but too low-spinning and too specialist to hold greens for a better player.

+ the facts · 4 pros · 3 cons
  • +Extremely powerful, a lot of distance
  • +Very easy strike through the turf, larger sole
  • +Helps players who lose it right, slightly upright with softer shafts
  • −Extremely low spin (around 4,000 on a mid iron for him), so it struggles to hold greens
  • −Can't get close to front flags or attack tucked pins
  • −Larger head, thicker top line, more specialist look

For: More entry-level or beginner players who need raw power and just want to advance it near the green.

  • −£43 per club new
  • −Very strong lofts can be too much for faster players
