Loved it

These could be some of the best irons I've ever tested

A performance-first brute that James says could be some of the best forgiving irons he has ever tested and the 2026 club to beat in the category.

+ the facts · 5 pros · 2 cons
  • +Outrageous distance, 7-iron carrying 177 yards while still spinning around 6,000 rpm
  • +Feels almost impossible to hit offline, mishits still flew 180 yards
  • +Easy high launch that comes down steeply and stops dead, yet can still be flighted down
  • Big, thick-topline, offset-heavy looks won't suit everyone
  • Strong lofts and pure distance make precise yardage control tough for better players

For: Mid and high handicappers who want maximum forgiveness and distance and don't care about compact looks

Liked it

Fairway finder. Absolutely.

A beautifully finished, ultra-high-MOI fairway finder that surpasses the 10K threshold and posts hugely consistent numbers, though its high-2000s spin means it won't be a distance winner for faster players like him.

+ the facts · 5 pros · 3 cons
  • +Surpasses 10K MOI; extremely stable and consistent with tight standard deviations
  • +Very clean matte carbon looks showcasing the new Tour Edge rebrand
  • +Solid yet soft sound and feel, softer than the LS
  • Spin sat around 2800 RPM, 500-600 more than he'd want, costing him distance
  • Narrow front-to-back head shape won't suit players who like a deep face
  • Not a driver for winning long-drive contests

For: Golfers who need maximum forgiveness and could actually use the extra spin, prioritizing fairways over yards
