Why We Like It
- A new hollow-body design allows for a thin, forged 4120 chromoly-steel face for added spring at impact in the 4- through 7-iron.
- A revamped variable-thickness face in the 4- through 8-iron expands the sweet spot from previous iterations of this model.
- Less weight in the toe makes it easier to draw the ball.
- The company’s “triple-cut sole” features a beveled leading and trailing edge, promoting crisp, dollar-bill-like divots.
- A metal bar in the back cavity and a rigid topline contribute to a syrupy feel.
- Top 5 in Performance, high-handicaps.
- SPECS: 7-iron: 30 degrees; PW: 43 degrees

Wayne

It has nice front-edge bevel, which kind of helps the leading edge from digging in. I hit down on the ball and can hit it fat every once in a while, but you can get away with that using these. It's a really nice club with good overall forgiveness and performance. Anybody would be happy playing this club.

Shane
36, Handicap 15
5 years testing
I got reliable flight and direction. I'm not trading my first born for them but maybe my third or fourth. Very forgiving—more than they look. They shepherded me back to the target every time.

Sean
53, Handicap 6
8 years testing
These are thin looking, not a big-old cavity backs. You could turn these over or fade them. The pitching wedge performs more is like a high-launching, game-improvement club.

Daniel
33, Handicap 12
5 years testing
These clubs felt a lot firmer on contact and were producing a lower, piercing ball flight. Nothing slows them down through the turf.

Paul
63, Handicap 4
10+ years testing
It has a smaller head yet played like a game-improvement iron with some weight low in the head. Interaction with the ground was above average and the club generated speed, but the launch was higher than I sought. I got a consistent ball fight and consistent performance.

Matt
27, Handicap 5

You have a little jut out at the bottom of the club, which I felt helped align me to my target. It was easy to feel where the ball was on the face. I sort of felt like I had total control of where my ball was going, which was such a confident thing to feel.
I got a very, very tight dispersion pattern. Distance and accuracy were super consistent.

Skylar
26, Handicap 7
2 years testing
It doesn't look or feel too clunky. In your hands, it feels like good weight distribution, but when you swing it, you can feel the weight toward the hosel—so the miss for me was a big block right.

Ryan
49, Handicap 10
7 years testing
A total standout. I can't think of a lighter-feeling or easy-to-swing club that has such a purposeful punch. It was effortless; there was no hesitation through turf. It was easy to keep it up and on line.

RC
63, Handicap 7
2 years testing
I like looking at it, like the swing of it. Turf interaction is really nice. I got good swing speed out of it and ball speed. The head is not that large and feels like a players iron. When you pick it up, it looks like a quality iron.

Anand
43, Handicap 6
10+ years testing
Really good impact. The ball starts going up, stays up, and then lands really soft. Because of the launchability, I get confident I can work the ball and change the trajectory. I was able to hit high fades, high draws and a 5-iron stinger.

Matt
52, Handicap 11
3 years testing
It produced a pleasingly high trajectory and the ball landed softly on the green. They were longer than other clubs and they encouraged me to get after it. After a couple swings, I really wanted to commit to every swing. I typically struggle to get 5-irons in the air but these launched with ease.

Jin
29, Handicap 13
1 year testing
As the irons get longer, you can see the sole and back end of the head at address. Not a huge fan of that. The topline is on the thin side for the players-distance category. It has a higher-pitched ping at impact and firm feel. I got a high ball flight even when I thinned a couple. They are forgiving in that respect.

John
55, Handicap 11
1 year testing
I love the weight. It's a little on the heavy side, so it made me feel like the ball is going to go farther and that gave me confidence. It felt like the kind of clubs I've been hitting my whole life. One knock: I didn't get much help when I missed the center of the face.

Sándor J.
36, Handicap 9
2 years testing
I am a fan of the clubhead. It just looks like it will perform. I'd say they got everything right with these.

Alan
30, Handicap 1
1 year testing
It's got a sawed-off leading edge that makes it get through the turf like a boat on a calm lake. It plays like that, too—a zen day on a calm lake. You can get some surprising movement. I'd game these. Im actually wondering why I don't.

Scott
37, Handicap 14
9 years testing
This feels like a better-player's club with plenty of distance. Worked through the turf easily. I got a balanced and controllable flight and spin, as opposed to a blast. Super steady. Everything you put into this it's going to give you back.

Jack
35, Handicap 1
2 years testing
Little to no offset, which is nice. It allows you to work it a lot. It's definitely one of the hottest heads and also has one of the softest feels, a rare combination. You can get aggressive through the turf with them, too.

Jamie
51, Handicap 5
2 years testing
It was receptive to nothing less than a 100-percent swing and I wasn't able to change direction or trajectory. But those full swings resulted in a pleasingly firm impact and and predictable distance and flight.

Peter
57, Handicap 7
10+ years testing
This is the definition of a forged club—you get rewarded for good swings and sweet-spot contact. It had a really piercing ball flight, never balloons and excellent distance. There is some workability but very easy to hit straight shots, too.

Thomas
60, Handicap 7
10+ years testing
I love the look. Simple, elegant, classy and modern. These clubs cut through the turf and gave me a standard, medium ball flight. These were more forgiving than most and gave me a straight flight with a soft pleasing feel at impact.

Alex
40, Handicap 11
6 years testing
It felt cushiony yet explosive off the face. Through the bag there was a high, rising trajectory that even managed to get some roll. Every shot was straight as an arrow. A bit of a dead sound off the face, but that was not reflected in the flight of the ball.

David
66, Handicap 8
1 year testing
The clubhead speed and the smash-factor numbers were consistently good, but I was getting less distance than I expected.

Robert
28, Handicap 2
1 year testing
It seems larger heel to toe—not distracting but noticeable. It seemed to launch higher with a lot of extra spin, which ballooned and floated shots. Even on punch shots, the height was like a normal shot shape. I got good action through the ball and the standard thud sound through the ground. The leading edge relief helps me with my steep angle of attack. I never felt like it would dig.

BK
41, Handicap 1
9 years testing
What it does the best, it takes a players-iron look and package and squeezes all that performance out of it. Like squeezing limes for fresh margaritas. It hits shots I can’t hit, but I did hit them with these clubs. All with great feel.

Megan
39, Handicap 0
1 year testing
It had a very cracky sound off the face. Thin shots stung a little in my hands but they went straight and about the same distance. The hard feeling off the face wasn't as reactive as I like to feel.

Wei
54, Handicap 13
9 years testing
I absolutely love the compact profile at address. I really appreciate the beveling on the front and back of the topline to eliminate the thickness of it. If this were a dish, the sound and feel are delicious. This was a joy to hit. Long and high on well-struck shots and mis-hit shots still covered most of the distance and didn't venture too far off line.

Ricky
46, Handicap +3
10+ years testing
This baby was jumping off the face. The metal was soft but responsive. Even toe shots were responsive. They were going in the direction you wanted it to go. It’s not flashy, but it’s very effective. Definitely quiet—like a ninja. Snuck up on you every time you hit it.

Ryan
46, Handicap 14
2 years testing
Just a classic look with the small head. It feels heavy but in a good way. You can get through the turf easy and I was able to turn the ball both ways. I noticed that the distance was more consistent than with my normal clubs.

Alejandra
26, Handicap 5
4 years testing
Visually, it gives me confidence I'm going to hit it clean. Once I hit it, every shot felt flush. It's a sound I want to hear over and over—like my favorite song. They also are easy to get in the air without sacrificing distance.

Gary
37, Handicap 13
10+ years testing
These are consistently more forgiving than you might initially think. That forged feeling was real and familiar. I did not have to manufacture any launch. It provides confidence.
