Forgiveness

Industry awards describe the iron as 'a sleek, compact iron with a thin topline, minimal offset and a brush finish that looks like a players' model but offers notable forgiveness — mis-hits tend to stay in a tight dispersion and still carry useful yardage.' Reviewer testing: 'tighter dispersion than I expected' and 'these irons really help keep the ball on target, even when my swing isn't perfect.' 70g internal tungsten + hollow body + thinner+more flexible PWRSHELL face deliver class-leading mishit recovery.

Distance

Industry awards observed 'center strikes feel very soft and cushiony, coming off hot with penetrating distance.' Dynamic distance unleashed via hollow body + thinner and more robust PWRSHELL insert with H.O.T Face Technology + 70g of tungsten in the toe. 27° 7-iron loft + 70g tungsten (15g more than predecessor's 65g) + lower CG.

Workability

Reviewer testing notes the 2025 X has a 'rounder and sleeker topline while having reduced visual offset, meaning the club looks like it has less offset than it really does' — slight workability improvement over the 2022 generation. Industry awards describe 'sleek, compact iron with thin topline, minimal offset.' The X model is designed to inspire confidence in a more forgiving shape — distance/forgiveness priority. Hollow-body construction with strong 27° loft caps absolute shape control.

Feel

Hollow body design filled with new foam that is lighter and softer to enhance feel and feedback. Reviewer consensus overwhelmingly positive regarding feel.

Sound

Same 2025 Tec chassis acoustic — five-step forging process and softer foam create a deeper sound that appeals to better players. Lighter+softer foam in hollow body for acoustic damping. X variant retains slightly more distance-iron-leaning acoustic vs standard Tec due to larger hollow-body cavity. Class-competitive for 2025 players-GI category.
