-
Ai Smart Face™: Utilizes swing data from thousands of golfers (Swing Code: swing speed, club delivery, face orientation) to create a face with multiple sweet spots, promoting high launch, optimal spin, and consistent distance with tight dispersion into greens.
-
Deep Cavity Back Construction: Combined with precision tungsten weighting (up to 27g), it produces a low, deep center of gravity for a towering ball flight and enhanced forgiveness on off-center hits.
-
Dynamic Sole Design: Features a pre-worn leading edge with variable bounce for efficient turf interaction, ensuring crisp contact and forgiveness across various lies, ideal for high-handicap players.
-
Longer Club Lengths: A.I.-driven optimization adds ½” to long and mid irons, boosting swing speed and distance without sacrificing control or accuracy.
-
Modern Shaping: Longer blade lengths, optimal sole and topline widths, and a matte-black finish create a confident yet clean look at address, tailored for forgiveness and playability.

Performance Notes:
-
Player Profile: Suited for mid-to-high handicappers (15–30 handicap) with moderate swing speeds (75–90 mph driver speed), seeking high launch and maximum forgiveness. Ideal for golfers struggling to get mid-irons airborne.
-
Distance and Forgiveness: Testing shows 5–10 yards more carry than traditional irons (e.g., 7-iron at 155–165 yards for 80 mph swing speed, ~5,600 rpm spin), with the second-longest carry and tightest dispersion in the high-handicap category.
-
Feel and Sound: The deep cavity back and Lamkin Crossline grip deliver a soft, solid feel with a crisp sound on center strikes; mishits produce slightly louder feedback but remain forgiving.
-
Shaft Options: Stock shafts include True Temper Elevate 85 MPH (Regular/Stiff, steel, ~85g, mid launch/spin) and Project X Cypher 2.0 (50g Light, 60g Regular, 70g Stiff, graphite, high launch/spin). Custom shafts available (e.g., KBS, Nippon).
-
Grip: Stock Lamkin Crossline 360 (46g); custom options like Golf Pride MCC or Tour Velvet available.
