  • −Medium to chunky top line, not the slimmest

“I wouldn't say that the Wilson was far behind”

At £600 less for the set the Wilson was not far behind the Mizuno at all on performance and beat it on forgiveness, you just accept a slightly hollow, clunky feel and bolder looks.

+ the facts · 5 pros · 3 cons
  • +Around £600 cheaper than the Mizuno Pro 245 for the same set
  • +Performance not far behind, 7-iron numbers were near identical to the Mizuno
  • +More forgiving, poor strikes still worked out where the Mizuno punished them
  • −Feel is a little more hollow and clunky than the Mizuno's clean soft strike
  • −Gave up about 5 yards of carry and 2.5 mph ball speed with the 5-iron
  • −Bolder black detailing looks less premium than the Mizuno's clean finish

For: Golfers who want forged players-distance performance with more forgiveness at a much lower price

“it's definitely firmer like a P790”

A P790-style tech iron that looks cleaner than expected and gets long irons airborne, but feels firm and has questionable gapping.

+ the facts · 5 pros · 4 cons
  • +Clean look with less offset than expected, clean badging
  • +8620 carbon steel so it can be bent and customized, unlike the previous version
  • +Great sound, especially through the short irons
  • −Distinctly firmer feel than expected, more distance iron than players iron
  • −Only 600 rpm spin difference between the 5 and 7 iron, gapping is tight and likely needs a 6-iron
  • −44-degree pitching wedge with tech-loaded long irons creates an awkward loft progression

For: Players who want long-iron help from technology and don't mind a firmer feel.
