Why We Like It
To get the full picture here you need to turn the club over to see the “powerholes.” You’ve seen these from Wilson before but now these flexible sections appear only on the 4- through 6-irons—or the clubs where most players are looking for a little extra punch. Still, an iron designed for distance isn’t much good if you’re yelling “Full flaps!” when it hits the green. To address that, Wilson lowered the CG to increase the launch angle and foster stopping power. Finally, the soft, forged carbon steel delivers the kind of responsive feel worthy of the Dynapower name.

Reviews
The ribbed cavity spreads into the toe, giving the clubhead more weight without feeling bulky. Compact and centered behind the ball. Easily accelerates through shots and has a good punch.
Gary, 36, Handicap: 13Good looking club that’s long and hot off the face. Great option for golfers who have lost a little speed. These will add some time on the clock for you.
Jack, 34, Handicap: 1Getting a lot of distance on well-struck shots. Soft, responsive feel. Good shots feel distinctly better than misses. Before seeing the result, I know it’s good because of the feel.
Matt, 51, Handicap: 11Why Impact Is Critical to Your Iron Play
Consistent shot shape requires one skill above all others: the ability to make flush contact with the ball. It’s the No. 1 fundamental in golf, and without it, this game can be an eternal mystery.
