Wilson Staff Tour Blade Forged Fluid Feel Iron Set 3-PW Right HandRegular flex True Temper Dynamic steel shafts – slick/hard old grips were removed and shafts were prepared for install of new grips.
****Because of the varied grip types and sizes I have chosen to leave the clubs stripped allowing the buyer to choose exactly what grip they want. In addition, with the grips removed, shaft length can be easily shortened or lenghtened (with extensions).****
This later Staff model features a wider sole and lower center of gravity for ease in getting ball airborne and Fluid Feel to move COG from hosel. Set length is based on a 38” 5 iron (standard). All clubs have very good grooves are in great overall condition, the PW has a little sole wear and a couple of minor dings (will not affect playability).
FOREGED IRON MYSTIQUE:
For years forged blade irons were the tour player’s mainstay – and they still enjoy a loyal following among PGA Tour players. Shots hit on the sweet spot were almost not felt – the ball flew far and true. Conversely, anything off the sweet spot was immediately felt and distance/direction suffered. In addition, the ball could be worked easily and predictably (high-low-fade-draw) if different areas of the club face were targeted.
Forged irons are
made by pounding carbon steel until the atoms are literally squashed together,
creating a very tight grain structure (no dead or hot spots) – which in turn
transmit vibrations more accurately to the golfer. Cast irons became popular
because of less cost and because “forgiving” or “game improvement” designs
could be cheaply implemented – and they do work. Balls hit off the sweet spot
travel considerably farther and straighter than their forged counterparts, but
at a price. The sweet spot on a forgiving design never feels as good as the
forged one and a player’s swing can get pretty out of whack, while still
hitting decent shots.
