“one of the best looking irons that I've tested so far this year”
A stunning, tech-packed premium blade that strikes crisply, produces impressive distance numbers and flights up and down on demand, but at $1,249 it must justify big-boy pricing and mishits still cost 20+ yards of carry.
+ the facts · 5 pros · 3 cons− the facts
- +One of the best looking irons he has tested this year, with lovely turf interaction
- +Impressive, consistent numbers for a blade: ~160-165 yard 7-iron with tight repeat carries
- +VibCore channel and CNC-milled 1025 carbon steel forged construction
- −Not cheap: $1,249 / about £1,000 for a 7-piece steel set, up with the big-brand pricing
- −Big drop-off on mishits, carry window went from 171 down to 148 on a toe strike
- −Not the softest-feeling blade, spin runs fairly low around 5,000-5,500
For: Better players who want a premium, gorgeous-looking blade with modern tech and a bit of offset insurance
