    Wilson is truly underappreciated. Their performance is outstanding, the feel is 2nd to none, and for the price...nothing even comes close. Moreover, the history behind the club is very rewarding as an owner.

      I went into a fitting and this time wasn’t worried about what I got actually surprised me with how well they performed and I had only played twice this year, felt like I had total control and could flight it hit a tight draw and my stock fade. Always a plus that they are cheaper than the other irons and the look of these clubs is phenomenal

      Me too - not sure if it’s only visual, but they look like they have very little offset even compared to some blades which is why I bought them. Curious how these look, I love a combo and if they are better in some way I might upgrade

    I had the privilege to be fitted at the Wilson Innovation Center in Chicago for the Staff blades. By far the best irons I’ve ever owned. Had the CB’s and wasn’t sure I could play the blades (based on everything you hear about how hard blades are to hit) and surprisingly I hit the blades better. Great company!

    Those Wilson Staff irons really perform well in your hands, Ian! For a very good to great ball-striker (as you clearly are), a blended set (maybe 4 & 5 irons in the CB and 6-PW in the blade) would be a dynamite setup.
    I played blades (mostly Golden Ram and Hogan Apex Redlines) in the 1980s through most of the 1990s, when I was a consistent 5-6 handicap player, but I did have a set of Wilson Staff blades back then, and I enjoyed them greatly. However, these days as a nearly 75 year old 14-handicapper, I have no business hitting such demanding irons. They do look really nice, though, and Ian certainly demonstrates that they are a great choice for the right golfer!

    Still playing the Wilson Staff Forged D7 in a combo set with Blades from PW-7 and the CB from 7-5 (the D7 7-Irons have different lofts, 30° on the CB and 34° on the Blade). Just love them and I don't feel intimidated by the Blades at all. They are a blast to hit.

      Nice! I’m still rocking the C300 Forged. I have plenty of speed, but don’t hit the middle often so I need the forgiveness. I’ve looked at D7F and D9F but the stronger lofts aren’t for me - they go too far. So the 33 deg 7 iron in the C300F is perfect and I won’t be changing anytime soon.

  • @rufussthoo4083
    @rufussthoo4083 Рік тому

    I got very excited as soon as I saw this title. My combo set are already on order and I can't wait for their arrival. Tell me these aren't some of the best looking, best feeling/sounding, and best performing players ions, EVER. Go on, I bet you won't 😁
    BTW, I don't understand why Tour players don't want to hit blades. It's probably because they have never tried a Wilson Staff blade. These things (the previous model at least) are really easy to strike well, are VERY consistent and somewhat forgiving even for a single-figure mid-handicapper. I lose around 10 yards distance on my very worst 7i mishits but a Tour pro is rather unlikely to mishit the way I do.

    Beautiful irons that perform as good as anything in n the market. However, there is one area Wilson is missing a model IMO. I have some speed so I still play the C300 Forged (a 33 deg 7 iron). I don’t want a 30.5 deg D7F or D9F - and presumably the Dynapwr Forged will be similar. But I’m also too erratic with strike to play the CB’s. Wilson need a model at 32 degrees (similar to TM P770, Mizuno 243, Titleist T150 etc). Other than that, their line-up is REALLY solid

    Yeah, don't get me wrong, as always your reviews are in depth and on point. So well done there. But and this is a constructive criticism - please can you show the viewers the down the players eye view looking down on the clubface view of the iron like Michael Newton does, as consumers only really make their final minds up on purchasing an iron imho from this final view and that is because the online studio cgi photos of the iron are often misleading and the reality view shows a different picture. Thank you kindly and as always a very big thank you for being on the ball and the first studio to really in depth review these irons as requested with the numbers.

      He’s in a studio, on a perfect lie every time, and they edit out some bad shots if I remember correctly. It’s not that these videos are deceptive at all, but overall yeah if Jon Rahm and some of the best ball strikers on the planet don’t play blades I don’t think many need to. It’s all preference though, but if you want to “min max” your golf equipment, which is what fitting is meant to do, blades aren’t really ever in the question for 99.99999% of golfers.

    I like the fact that the blade and CB look like they are from the same family. The last CB and blade looked too different from each other, even though both performed very well.

    Lovely, I play Wilson Staff C200, which is old but works well for me. these are lovely, but I do wonder if anyone is actually gonna buy them? My mates certainly dont think well of Wilson versus TM etc

    I already have the 2023 Wilson staff blades 3-pw, have just ordered the staff ZM wedges . best irons on the market , LOVE them!! May buy the 2024 blades just to have as a back up set. They are so accurate with distance control. Have come down from 7 to 5 handicap with these irons, Two sub par rounds in the 60's. Highly recommend these superbly crafted ,pure irons!!

    All pga professionals should play 1 piece irons. No hollow body’s, speed slots, flexy faces etc.. it’s pretty wild they’re making the golf ball industry jump through hoops when the companies already have players 1 piece irons in their lineups.
