Featuring a forged cavity-back construction and Callaway’s Ai Smart Face™ technology, these clubs deliver high ball speeds, easy launch, and consistent performance. Ideal for custom set building or replacements, they offer a confidence-inspiring profile with tour-level aesthetics.
Ai Smart Face™: Leverages real golfer swing data and artificial intelligence to optimize ball speed, spin, and dispersion across the face, ensuring consistent distance and tight shot patterns, even on mishits.
Forged 455 Face Cup: Combines a forged cavity-back design with a high-strength 455 steel face for tour-caliber sound and feel, delivering powerful ball speeds across the face for enhanced distance.
Dynamic Sole Design: Features a pre-worn leading edge and variable bounce for smooth turf interaction, enhancing forgiveness and playability from various lies, including rough and bunkers.
MIM Weighting: Strategically positioned Metal Injection Molded (MIM) tungsten optimizes the center of gravity for high launch and increased forgiveness, ideal for mid-handicap players.
Game-Improvement Shaping: Offers a larger clubhead, thicker topline, and moderate offset for confidence at address, blending forgiveness with a premium, clean aesthetic.

Performance Notes:
Player Profile: Suited for mid-to-high handicappers (10–20 handicap) with moderate swing speeds (80–95 mph driver speed), seeking forgiveness, distance, and a premium feel. Ideal for players transitioning from game-improvement to player’s irons.
Distance and Forgiveness: Testing shows 5–10 yards more carry than traditional irons (e.g., 7-iron at 165–175 yards for 85 mph swing speed, ~5,500 rpm spin), with excellent forgiveness on mishits due to the larger head and Ai Smart Face.
Feel and Sound: The forged 455 face and urethane microspheres deliver a soft, premium feel with a muted, tour-like sound on center strikes; mishits produce slightly sharper feedback but remain forgiving.
Shaft Options: Stock shafts include True Temper Dynamic Gold Mid 90 (Regular/Stiff, steel, 90g, high launch/mid spin) and UST Mamiya Recoil Dart HDC 70 (Senior/Regular/Stiff, graphite, 70g, mid launch). Custom shafts available (e.g., KBS, Project X).
Grip: Stock Golf Pride Z-Grip (50.5g); custom options like Golf Pride MCC or Lamkin Crossline available.
