It doesn’t matter how many fairways you hit or how far you can launch it off the tee, if you’re not hitting greens, you just aren’t going to score well. Iron shots are the most difficult area of the game to master, and buying new irons is one of the toughest decisions you’ll make-it’s as much about making the right decision as it is the money. One of the missions of GT is to help golfers through these tough choices. As with most years, 2008 has a broad selection of irons in both performance and price. In the April issue, the GT staff reports on the specifications, playing characteristics and price, as well as making recommendations that should help most golfers with this change.
More than a decade ago, Golf Tips Magazine took the lead role in reporting and reviewing the equipment category for the golf audience and maintains that position today. The Golf Tips equipment panel is made up of the industry’s top R&D experts, which is why more than 600,000 golfers rely on their reviews to make the best purchasing decisions for their game.
In the April issue of GT, you’ll see irons becoming more differentiated on both ends of the spectrum. Some are clearly for game improvement, while others for better players who want shotmaking control, thus leaving the chasm between game improvement and player clubs bigger than ever. It’s also more crowded, with a host of new irons dubbed as “mixed sets,” featuring game-improvement long irons, blade short irons and seemingly everything in between.
“Buying a new set of irons can be a daunting process. Reason being, you aren’t buying just one club-there are upward of 9-10 clubs in the mix,” said Senior Editor Ryan Noll. “Other factors may include the popular hybrid category, which can add to that total. But it’s our job to make the iron buying process and easier one. With our simple tips and advice, purchasing a set of irons can actually be a fun experience.”
GT’s 2008 Iron Buyer’s Guide is compiled of more than 10 pages, featuring a selection of each type of iron, all you need to know before you make purchasing decisions. All this and more is in the April issue of Golf Tips Magazine-pick up your copy today.
