TEMECULA, Calif. — Featuring classic styling and a high-performance design, the recently launched Akira API Forged Irons are now available to dealers and golfers in the United States through Eastern Golf Company of Temecula, Calif. The new Akira API Forged Irons, designed for better players, generate a new level of performance and extreme feel.
"Precision shot-making was the primary focus in the design of the new API-Forged Irons, and we’re very excited to have these clubs now available in the United States," says Mike Matheny, president and CEO of Eastern Golf Company, exclusive United States distributor of Akira products. "Another huge benefit to these new Akira irons is the soft feel they provide at impact. No other forgings can replicate the soft feel of these irons, and we expect demand to be quite high."
Unique among forged irons in golf today, the Akira API irons have taken forged, shot-making performance to a new level with innovative engineering on the club surface and beneath. The Akira API clubheads are forged from mild S-20C steel which enhance the feel of the ball at impact, plus the Akira design features precision milling on every clubface within the set to exact tolerances. Beneath the surface of the attractive chrome finish, Akira engineers also incorporated a layer of soft copper plating which produces further cushions impact and delivers an incredibly soft feel at impact.
"Akira has earned a strong international reputation for innovation and honest engineering," adds Matheny, "and the new API Forged irons are really a testament to precision shot-making."
Through creative technologies and new design concepts such as stabilizing beam structures, hyper-steel manufacturing and variable face densities, Akira Products Co. has worked relentlessly in developing clubs that provide maximum satisfaction to every golfer. Akira has also collaborated with many of the world’s most respected graphite shaft manufacturers such as Mitsubishi, Graphite Design, Fujikura, Mamiya-OP and others.
