Key Technologies: The all-stainless steel iron repositions 30 grams to the lower portion of the cavity, to create a large sweet spot in line with where average golfers strike the ball (low on the face). Consistent, high ball speeds combine with stronger lofts (long irons strengthened by 2°, short irons by 1°) to produce shots that fly 5 yards longer on average than X-22s.
OUR TESTERS SAY: Dependable performers. Callaway Razr X Tour Irons
does its best work in terms of accuracy/forgiveness and distance.
PROS
PLAYABILITY: Offset head allows for natural draw bias; lower center of gravity produces towering shots.
ACCURACY/FORGIVENESS: Mis-hits don't sacrifice much in terms of distance or direction; a few testers believe it's impossible to lose shots to the right.
DISTANCE CONTROL: Several testers get up to one full Callaway Razr X Tour Irons
of extra length through the set.
FEEL: Many testers find it to be very solid yet soft at impact—a steamroller through the hitting zone.
LOOK: Significant offset and massive sole let you know the ball will get up easily and won't slice.
CONS
Takes time to get distances dialed in due to strong lofts; some testers seek more dampening help on mis-hits.
Callaway Razr X Tour Irons
Category: Tour Irons
We tested: 3-PW, AW with True Temper Dynamic Gold steel shaft
Key Technologies: The all-stainless steel iron has a 30-gram weight on the lower back of the cavity that shifts its center of gravity 23 percent lower and 18 percent deeper than in the X-22 Tour. The primary goal is to deliver the forgiveness and power of a wide-sole Callaway Razr X Tour Irons
plus the versatility of a thin-sole iron.
OUR TESTERS SAY: A good option for single-digit handicappers who are looking for "players" sticks that have a hint of game-improvement. |
