Modern 360° Undercut Cavity is designed to deliver faster ball speeds, higher launch, and more forgiveness across the face, thanks to its advanced two-piece design with extreme perimeter weighting and a fully exposed undercut for added flex. Well above average, firmly in game-improvement territory forgiveness + tight dispersions + relatively consistent ball speeds across the face. Spin varied upwards and downwards by approximately 1,000rpm on mishits — solid mishit consistency. Next-gen AI-optimized face intelligently shapes the hitting area to match real-world impact patterns and boost ball speed and consistency. Forgiveness, power, and a very palatable aesthetic — solid dependable GI performer. Top-tier forgiveness — class-leading 360° Undercut Cavity + AI face + tight dispersions.

+1.8 mph ball speed average vs the Elyte model + 3-6 yards extra carry on average. Designed to generate faster ball speeds and higher launch with a developed, game-improvement shape. Average carry of 172 yards for 7-iron at 29° + launched and flew pretty high + 5-iron carries nearly 198yd with spin under 3500rpm. Next generation of AI-optimized face design to deliver faster ball speeds and more consistent launch. 360° Undercut construction pushes weld line farther back, allowing for greater sole flex and faster speeds. Top-tier distance — measurable +1.8mph gain over Elyte + 3-6yd more carry.

Developed game-improvement shape + cavity-back look for GI buyers. Explicit game-improvement category for high-handicap golfers. Target is mid and high handicappers, with some uptake in the low-handicap category as well. 29° 7-iron + Modern 360° Undercut + extreme perimeter weighting + HL option adds 2° loft. Below-average workability — explicit GI design with stronger lofts + 360° undercut + perimeter weighting + cavity back = high-launch straight-flight bias.

Best feeling cast game improvement irons tested this year, delivering a truly soft and luxurious experience. Noticeably firmer, more responsive with impact that rockets off the face. Urethane microspheres dampen harsh vibrations for refined feel. A winning blend of feel and consistency. Top-tier feel — class-leading cast GI feel + firm-yet-responsive impact via 360° undercut flex + urethane microsphere damping.

High, loud impact noise, with this not really changing across the entire face — explicitly underperforming vs Srixon ZXi (which feels more premium). Crisp, medium-pitched thwack that is on the quiet side. Urethane microspheres dampen vibration. Mixed acoustic verdict — Today's Golfer flagged loud uniform acoustic as the iron's weakest dimension; Golfstead experienced quieter crisp acoustic. Below-average sound for class given the reviewer-flagged criticism: the loud uniform tone means mishits don't dull, robbing the acoustic feedback channel.

Very palatable aesthetic GI shape. Less refined than the previous Elyte model. Cavity-back 360° undercut visible behind ball — friendly invitation to target player. Developed game-improvement shape. 2026 Hot List nomination implicit positive aesthetic ranking. Above-average looks for GI category — palatable cavity-back GI shape with visible 360° undercut technology cue + refined finish.
