In the August/September issue of Golf Tips Magazine, Scott Kramer talks with several top industry R&D gurus to get the latest on design trends for irons. Often the "unsung heroes" in the bag, irons have been quietly undergoing their own significant transformation—influenced to the greatest extent by new material options and CAD (computer-aided) design. Are irons taking their lead from hybrid designs? Hear what several of these top designers think.
"Some of the playability that’s been discovered in hybrids—that easy-to-play trajectory with significant distance gains—seems to be the trend with irons too," said Benoit Vincent, Chief Technical Officer at TaylorMade Golf.
In the same issue, the GT staff has assembled one of their famous Buyer’s Guides—this one for Wedges. These critical scoring clubs can be among the most difficult to choose and use. As a result, the editors go into all the pertinent detail necessary for the readers to carefully evaluate the correct loft and bounce combinations for their skill and course playing conditions.
"Golf Tips has been very fortunate over the years to have developed strong relationships within the R&D community of our industry. Some of the most brilliant minds—many truly former rocket scientists—work in this business and have advanced the level of technology for all golfers. More importantly, their highly educated and ethical approach to design and product development is insuring that the measure of new products today must stand on their own performance merit," said Dave Brennan, Publisher of Golf Tips Media Group.
