"Wilson's popular in the UK where the sun never shines so chrome isn't a problem there" is an all-time line.

Love seeing that Wilson is still class - love my Wilson D9 forged irons

Same Ive never hit an iron as good as the D9s, I'll keep playing them until the wheels fall off

Wilson is doing some provocative stuff - their newest golf ball is phenomenal as well.

Wilson are great irons and at a far more affordable price point than the major brands, i play the Staff Model CB’s and they were better for me than the P7MC in my fitting.

I don't hit my 7 iron 200 yards, not even close. But I still love my Wilson irons! :-)

I've just got the Wilson D9 forged, very shiny and great to hit

Great review Mat…. Banter with the camera crew is great and must be encouraged 😜

Recently purchased. 4-GW $2100 with graphite shafts. $400-$500 cheaper than the "name" brands here in Australia. Not too shiny in the bright Australian sunshine.

What an awesome review! You are swinging great. I tried these Wilson's last week and they are the most impressive irons I've tested in the last few years.

Great to see! Thanks for reviewing these Matt! Wilson was definitely the club to play back in the day!

I never got a chance to hit them back in the day as I am LH and really hard to find in the late 80's and 90's. Closest I cam was a set of MacGergor blades and pure shots were so nice but mishits were brutal. The staff blades back then were the number 1 iron on tour I think. 845's and Eye 2's were just making their mark and changing things. I did end up getting, and still own, my 845's!

Agreed! I play the blades. Had the older ones. Just bought the new ones.

Great looking sticks. I play with shades normally in Florida so the chrome isn’t as big of a deal for my eye. Solid offerings for Wilson and so many companies the past couple of years. Glad there are some cost controlled awesome offerings too. These and the Callaway Rogue ST Pro irons from two years ago come to mind from the mainstream companies. Cheers! Swing is looking so good.

I like Wilson shine. I have played the blades for a few years now. Just bought the new Staff blades. None better.

you need to try the new Wilson Staff CB irons and the Staff Model blades... and the Dynapower drivers

I play the Wilson D9 forged. Like them a lot got them from Amazon thought they used but still in the box brand new. $525.00 great deal

I have the Wilson D7 Forged, D9 Forged and the DYNAPWR Forged are on the way. Wilson makes great clubs!

Talk about drop and stop power! Those Wilsons looks so damn pretty! P790 over priced hyper IMO.

Glad to see you having fun! Great review ! 😅😅

I still love my mizuno but i will be trying these soon. Great video

Swinging nicely Matty. You must be looking forward to Cedar Brae opening!

Great review. Wish I had Matt’s swing lol. He has higher clubhead speed with a 7i than I do with my driver 😢

Your swing is looking amazing 🎉

Moving thru the ball nicely Matty

Just picked up a brand new set of the previous generation Staff CB for $599 US. Adjusted the lie at no cost and changed the grips. Out the door at just over $700 US.

Really nice video Matt thanks !

Yes they are shiny but that, along with the hosel detail, is a nod to the past and I quite like it for that reason. I play the D9 Forged in my long irons with the CB middle irons and blade short irons. They combo beautifully (with a bit of loft adjustment for gapping). Hopefully you'll review those too, soon.

Crazy that a tour lite x is holding up to your swing speed. Relative to their full weight Tour shafts it’s actually only a 5.0 flex.

Love it. How shiney are we taking here? Also do you have their new fitting tool using the blast sensor?

Great review Matt, not many Wilson reviews out there, I play the Wilson D9 Forged irons and think they are amazing and I'm guessing close to these new irons.

Matt great video love my stealths BUT always looking for a way to make the game easier lol and these irons look like they are a winner I am gonna look into them plus i love new shiny golf equipment lol be well and stay safe cheers from Vulcan Canada

I have been playing Hogan PTX until last year when I got the Titleist t100S but had major issues with them on distance dispersion. Could see 10-15 yards differences on some shots when hit flush and bigger when not. Went back to my 2006 Callaway's X tour itons which are more traditional lofts and been much better. Decided to go away from players and move more into forgiving but prices are just insane. Being a lefty like you, sometimes harder to find DTC companies that offer LH but I am trying the Takomo 101t irons which are still being custom built for me to my specs. Got tired of trying to be better at my age and just enjoy golf. Got down to a 8.5 handicap but it is stuck there and at 51, it is time to just go for forgiveness.

You love to see it, can't wait to get fit for a set. Any news on their shaft-AI fitting thingy???

I actually like the chrome just because it makes them look classy and for some reason imo gives it a more premium look. All preference though. I play the D9 forged and haven't had any issues with being blinded by the sun.

Love a bit of shiny polished chrome!✨

Thanks Matt. Currently playing the D9 forged. Can attest to the "shinyness". Kinda wanna give them a scrub with a Scotch-brite sponge. Anyone try that? Think Wilson could have sold a few more of these if they called them D11 and covered up the powerholes.

The D9 forged I bought for $900 are better looking in my opinion. And I'm from Canada

Great review Matt. Matt was the Pxg ball comfortable to the prov1X or is it more spinny off driver Or is the Pxg ball good ??

Wilson irons always so good

Matt could you review the Pxg ball against the Kirkland and prov1 please

iron heads great. i would own these over my rogue st-pro for feel alone but stock shaft blah and no choices.

I dont know if Matt will see this....but could you do a side by side test of 2 irons or equal loft with radically different tech???? I dont think enough amatuers realize that when its they claim "more distance" its usually a loft. Not all 7i are equal. But it would be nice to see how accurate equivalent lofts would be. Are we getting more consistency. Smash? Is the distance still being generated compared to a forged muscle cavity? Spin rates? This is one of those clubs alongside like JPX forged that have made me consider getting something that helps...i play FG Tour Forged from W/S and have considered switching but havent found a reason if the only difference is loft. Sets nowadays include a approach wedge. Which firmly legitimizes what goes around comes around. Seeing as PW from 70 years ago are about the same as todays approach wedges

Wouldn't the chrome fade over time/use?

If I'm not mistaking, the last major winner with Wilson irons was Padraig Harrington. His last major being the 2008 PGA Championship.

Should I buy these or jpx 923 hot metal pro? Different irons, same price. I hit my 8 iron 175-180. Demod the p790s and was hitting maybe 195

Best Irons i have every played.

You better put those wedges in the bag. You hit them on the money every time.

ZX5 mk2 just got fitted for, have to say best bang for buck deal if you are a feel player.

Kinda like the mirror chrome simply because everyone else has gone satin

I know this is probably random but are you still working with Scott Cowx? The constant radius swing lesson was a huge light bulb moment for me

can you do a comparison with the D9 forged - from other reviewers D9F felt marginally better - pls and ty!

🎉🎉🎉

Maybe this is Wilson's limited edition "Eclipse" line?

Beautiful irons, but I've always hated the full chrome. Go blind staring down at a wedge

Two aesthetic choices, why does the badge have the W/S unlike the player irons? And why is it so shiny...

love the vid, keept it up! more content please :) BUT sorry to say but cant tweak loft from factory on these :( but can tweak in a loft and lie machine.

Unfortunately, cheaper loses out in golf to a pricier brand's prior model due to perceived quality.

Your 7 iron ball speed is my driver ball speed 😢

Sorry to say... but these irons are NOT too shiny at all...

You don't need to be sorry to say that. They aren't for the golfer with OCD due to scratches and fingerprints, other than that.. any glare will only be there when the sun lines up.. that's .3 seconds of the round

Matt there was a time when all irons were shiny. The sun was strong in the sky and golf flourished. Many people love chromed clubs. One mention about the finish would have been sufficient. To repeat numerous times and put it in the title is click bait. You’re better than that.I love what Wilson is doing! Keep going Wilson and don’t lose the chrome. Like the Grill on a 1950 Buick it’s Classic and beautiful.

Catchy title, but I thought wait a minute, my 1979 Maxfli Australian Blades with the red dot (not sure the red dot meant anything) were chromed, and so were a lot of other irons.

I would still be playing my D7 forged if I didn’t nearly snap the head away from the shaft lmao 😢

Most Wilson reviews get the old “For the money” treatment. If money wasn’t an object, how do the rank these vs the others in the same class? And try to pretend it’s not a Wilson. Some can’t see past the name

Holes in soles 😂😂😂 and sun never shining in the Uk
