Not one iron set, drivers, hybrids, wedges, and putters were in Golf Magazine's yearly club test/review edition in 2024.

@@lloydwilliams4368 that is to Golf Magazine’s shame. There are tour players gaming Wilson, especially irons but also wedges. Brendan Steele is one, and he recently won the individual LIV Adelaide event. The 2 youngsters who won the Good Good tournament also play Wilson. And there are a few KZreadrs reviewing them and gaming them too. Would be great to see you keep gaming them Alex and give them some limelight. Help the Wilson Staff renaissance!

I love Wilson irons. In the US they are treated as a sports manufacturer vs. A golf club manufacturer. Mizunos, Taylormade, Titleists, etc. will be considered more desirable in the US anyway even though that makes no sense. I hate saying this but the UK reviews tend to tell it like it is though a bit more long winded. Thanks for the wonderful review of a wonderful iron set.

Nice to see Wilson back on the dancefloor.🎉 Wilson Triad Golfballs are great as well.

I got a Wilson fitting this year and treated myself to the new CB irons and they feel and perform brilliantly for me. The dynapower driver also feels amazing 👍

Wilson have a very good deep-rooted reputation where irons are concerned. It's great that they're getting recognition that they deserve. Lots of KZread golfers are putting Wilson irons in the bag. Paul Waring uses Wilson irons.

Gamed Wilson irons for 20+ years amazing irons

My full golf bag is Wilson I love their irons, wedges and the Dynapower driver is amazing.

I’m currently rocking set of dynapower forged… best irons I’ve ever played with

First set of clubs I had as a kid was a set of Wilson Staffs from the 1960s with leather “Reminder” grips. Almost unhittable for a beginner but I made them work. Love the look of their current line. Just bought Mizuno 245s so I’m out of the market but those would be on any list of mine to try.

Just bought a set of the Wilson CBs 2024. Three rounds in and i love them!

I think that you make an excellent point about this iron. I have played the Mizuno blade, the P7mb, the Cobra king mb and so on. But clearly this Wilson.staff is rhe most amazing and is in my bag for at least the next 3 years. Until, Wilson makes a new blade.

Alex, I had the D7 Forged two generations before the Dynapower Forged. I loved them felt great but wanted something a little more precise. Switched to the JPX 923 Tours, big difference the Tours are tiny in comparison and very punishing if not hit out of the middle. I am now gaming the Staff CBs and couldn't be happier. Much more forgiving, I think feel better and absolutely beautiful. They are a club shorter than the D7s but are also a club weaker in loft, so there you have it.

My first ‘proper” full set of irons were Wilson Fluid Feel Blades and they were stunning. I changed to Mizuno 30 years ago and played various Mizuno sets ever since. (921 Tour currently) When I change the current set, I need to try these based of course on performance but also a little bit of nostalgia for me and completing the circle ⭕️

They look incredible and sound crispy .

I played Wilson v6 for years now I play the staff model blades these are easier to hit than you think I am 62 use a KBS 120 stiff and hit 8 iron 145 carry I play off 13 like the videos keep it up thanks

I play the Wilson D9 forged graphite love them

I have played Wilson irons for years the V 6 are the best clubs i have ever used i am73 and play off 6 the Wilson and Ben Hogan brands are terrific

I think you nailed on the whole marketing and why they cost less. I never thought about it until you said it. Great video

Currently gaming the D9 forged. Probably the best iron I've used in recent years and the price was very reasonable! The longer Wilson stays under the radar the better in my opinion. Great, interesting content as usual 👍

Yes! Best review of this iron out there in real turf and course scenarios. You were not too harsh right on the button. The Wilson marketing is different to other leading manufacturers hence no noise. It must be said that Srixon Japan marketing in Asia is very different to the US or UK market. The hype for the similar Matsuyama styled Srixon Z-Forged II was off the charts on release in Japan but very quite in US and it is the best blade iron out there imho in terms of aesthetics anyway. These have those aesthetics and more. The trick is to match them with the right shaft and grip - for me that would be KBS $ TAPER 120 stiff and Lamkin crossline full cord 2 layers tape. My setup would be Callaway AI SMOKE triple diamond 10.5 degree Stiff shaft Wilson Staff 8802 revision 2023 blade putter then into the 2 iron right through to gap wedge in these mb irons, wedges will be zm 54 with 8 degree standard bounce and the full face lob wedge with 6 degree bounce…hows that for a perfect setup? I know the old Wilson products very well cos I played my best amateur golf off 2 handicap back in the mid 90’s with Wilson gear. Even had a majetic 1200 LT laminated maple 3 wood that was out of this world good. I would be the perfect player still playing decently off 4 handicap that would suite this product to a T. Love the fact they do 10 irons from 2 through GW. Had a close look today at the zm 54 degree wedge and it is a very appealing product both aesthetically and performance. Yes, we have to take Wilson seriously now…The driver and fairway woods need improving but the rest of the gear just as good as the top boys now. Thank you so much for your exceptional review and opinions….always a pleasure to get your expert opinion on these A+ type products.

Had a fitting this morning and ended up choosing the Wilson CBs over the Srixon ZX7s and Mizuno 243s. If they had been similarly priced, it would have been a close call between the Wilson's and the Mizuno's. However, they aren't similarly priced.

I play their Sole grind wedges (50,56,60), and absolutely love the feel and performance of them. My short game with them is right on par with my playing group who all play “big” name clubs.

Had last generation Wilson staff CBs and love them. Even the old v6s where amazing. Underrated clubs. These ones definitely do look chunky to me vs my Rickie Fowler MBs

Takomo 301MB? I used Haig Ultra (1966 identical to Wilson Staff mb) for 10 years. Replaced with WS fluid feels 1984 for another 6 years. Then the Daly years came in and they fell into the distance, forgiveness trap! Now they are back.

I don’t carry a 4 iron anymore. I play “players distance” irons. Forged, tad chunky compared to pure blades. But I have the same issue. I hit my 6 iron in the 185 -190 carry stock. The 5 is 190- 200 ish. The 4 iron is roughly the same. Now I can hit them further but I feel I can’t swing them the same as the shorter irons. I tend to choke down to make sure I make good contact. This naturally changes, speed angle etc. so I carry a 4 hybrid and sometimes a 3 hybrid. Those carry the perfect gap distances. 200-230 with the 3/4. Can cut them draw them etc much easier than the 3/4 irons. Lost the speed I had 15 years ago

I have the 2021 cbs and the 2020 blades. Amazing clubs. Beautiful and better than all the mizuno sets ive had over the past 14 years....and i loved mizunos

I play D9 Forged Irons from Wilson, very underrated clubs

Looks very much like the Wilson Staff blades made back in 60’s and 70’s, including the black plug in the end of the shaft. They were the clubs used by most of the best players back then. But there was no offset and the top line was like a butter knife.

Im 70, I play Wilson D9's , great ,long and a great flight.

Wilson had been making gorgeous irons for years. People are too stuck up? To give them a chance.

Great looking 👀 clubs 😊…. I want !!!

I just picked up Wilson d9 forged irons and they’re the best irons I’ve ever hit. Compared them to a mizuno forged jpx which were the best before I hit the Wilson’s

Played dynapower red dots in high school, and my son played the same set. They were sweet clubs.

A few weeks ago, I bought a brand new set of 2021 Wilson Staff CB 4-PW irons off a power seller on ebay.... FOR $494!! True Temper S300 shafts, absolutely on of my greatest buys ever....

Playing the d7’s. Wilson wedges are v nice too. I would play these 5,6-PW , I have other clubs for distance. Anyone can play these blades as long as the correct shafts for each individual are available. The price point is their marketing

They are really beautiful, well done Wilson!

Wilson probably the most underrated brand in golf. Great products at great prices. My only criticism is not many stockists and not many places to test them. As they don’t have many touring pros they should perhaps market their products more and offer more demo days and target the amateur golfer. Great review Alex I’m considering Dynapwr forged as I want a forged forgiving iron. I’m a senior 15/17 handicapper. So far like the T350 and Ping i530. Also testing Cobra Darkspeed.

very nice ball striking.

You gotta try the new wilson zm wedges. Would love to hear your feedback!

Those are super clean irons. I actually like the shinny 👀. My new line at the golf course, “Ripped absolutely honeyed!”” RS,AE, MN and You all game Wilson, which truly shows their appeal. More people should consider Wilson, including me😂 I think it’s their marketing budget is why haven’t tried them.

I use my old set of Wilson Ultra Comp clubs, R-flex. Really good. Bought them from Capital Golf Club Canberra, new, for $AU 125. Talk about value! Must have been rather old model and left handed.

Forged irons always seem to have that crisp solid strike that feels as though the club has stuck on the ball giving that beautiful sound. They look divine and as you say off centre hits will affect distance which is why I think they are aimed at the better golfer. I agree the price is great as the other companies hike up their prices as they sponsor so many pros they have to get the money back somehow! Great in-depth video and if I was looking to change wouldn’t hesitate to try these. However am sticking with my srixons for the time being.

Playing the forged Wilson D9's and they are unreal

i am really interested in the Dynapower Forged i am 59 and as i age might be a good iron for me I am a 8 handicap good video by the way cheers from Vulcan Canada

Your second shot on the 6 iron didn't fly over 200. It was 40 yards longer than you first. 200+ would have flown the green.

I've played with Wilson irons last 10 years. I've been also wondering why there isn't more fuss about them, specially as they are cheaper than any other major brands.

I’m 70 play off 20 and have been using Wilson blades since last year. I will never go back to my PXG’s they feel like cricket bats in comparison.

Would like to see you try the Wilson AI Fitting system to get your opinion.

You asked for who are they designed for, I’m a 3 handicap, grinding to be scratch, and those really pique my curiosity ! I wont play MBs, i tried and its not forgiving enough for me, and i still enjoy soft touched irons, but i dont want to have 10 yards gapping on different shots with he same club, i think that’s why Wilson do not advertise them so much, they look more for for 5 handicap or lower, therefore no needs to advertise it as good players will notice them easily on a fitting or demo day

Wilson have always made great feeling clubs and always a great price, just too many golf snobs out there, I had a set of Wilson pro staff I started out with and had them for years, put many to shame who had way more expensive sets.

I went DB vs blade. This brand’s irons in general blow away a lot of irons that came out within the past year

I have an old 1985 R 90 and a set of 1991 FG 51's ,grooves are getting worn but i won't ever get rid of them.

I had a set of Wilson Staff irons and I was playing my best golf at the time. Not sure why I went to Taylormade irons, wish I had the Staffs back !!!!!!

I've seen about 5 KZreadrs now talk about how good Wilson irons are. Being in the market for irons right now, I'll be honest, I didn't even think about Wilson. I'm about ready to just go grab them now. Too many positive reviews for me to ignore. So now it's between Wilson and Toura. If you get some Toura irons I would LOVE to see what you say. about them.

Looking at the lofts the 4 iron is 23 … my ping i530 4 iron is 19 … that’s in between the 2and 3 .. that’s the only thing that has taken me some time to get accustomed to with my i530’s is they are so strong lofted …

I would give some feedback I special ordered a set of dyna power forged march 29 and yet haven’t received them ordered through roger Dunn Monrovia California very disappointed in Wilson I was told shafts back ordered kbs lite shafts I am baffled on why it’s taken so long for 7 clubs

They are beautiful.

Is there a chance you could run these irons through a loft and lie machine and maybe a follow up about it? Rick found that one of his irons was off by 3 or 4 degrees after doing a gapping session with them.

Beautiful irons, unfortunately I dont have the game for anything that small 😂

2nd best irons i tested only behind original zx7s...thats including muiras

Wilson have always been top notch

Seems that had to be a misread on the 6 iron. Would it have been on the green had it actually carried 200?

6 iron off the tee & 7 off the turf/rough, well yes that's why they throw up confusing gapping......

Yeah, as far as your point to marketing. Been looking at PXG vs. Wilson clubs but with the pxg I just wonder how much marketing I'm paying for cause they have so many embassadors and commercials

Can you please tell us the lofts???????

Would love you to test the Maltby clubs. Not may videos on this club.

@HowGoodGolf

Ай бұрын

thanks for the suggestion!!

I have played some of my best golf with Wilson clubs over the last 30 years. The best part is I typically save hundreds of dollars over my Taylormade, Callaway and to some extent Cobra clubs. You can pick up 2023 Staff CB irons new for under $500. That never happens with the other brands. I’m am confused by the constant complaining about getting the same distance with a 6 or even 7 iron as a 4. Just don’t get the 4, 5 or 6 and put something else in the bag to fill any gaps you have. Realistically if your hitting your tee shots and are not inside 200 yards your playing the wrong tees. A scratch golfer is going to get his irons loft and lie tweak to get the right numbers anyway. You might also make the case that there is something to playing one length clubs since they’re sized around a 6 or 7 shaft length club. I like my one length Cobra’s but I still use standard length wedges because they usually involve less than full swings. You might say I play Two Length irons. I have found them easier to play earlier at the start of the season because I’m limited to 2 swing paths for my irons.

Not sure if it is the chrome finish but they look pretty thin at the sole on video

Like a lot of things in life the beautifulest are not the best !

The best thing about working in silence, is their reputation will do the talking

They are bloody tiny fella. I use the CB's and these are unbelievable

Seems like a strange difference on the 6 with 170 and 201, almost like a hollow body jumper.

I just think that a good player will be testing different irons and quality players will always know the different brands.

Still gaming d300 lite irons

I think it’s more about speed rather then handicap

For the money , can’t beat takomo irons.

To cameron; fitting for the most part is a scam. Unless one is an elite player. Most people who are fitted can't break 80. Fitting is, for the most part, a sales technique. If one finds a head they like and choose a quality shaft like mitsubishi match the flex with the players swing speed all will be fine.

ALEX, I WATCH YOUR VIDEOS DAILY ALWAYS GREAT INFORMATION, CAN YOU DO A VIDEO ON OLDER CLUBS THAT CAN BE BOUGHT UNDER 500 USD THAT ARE STILL CHECK ALL THE BUCKETS FOR A NEWBIE.

Nice try. But Wilson have been doing it (and winning majors) since the 1920’s

because there is no warranty on the clubs.

I actually think Wilson need to work on the tech/ forgiveness in the longer irons (5 & 4). A low handicap player would be looking for at least 220 yds for a 4 iron off the tee, but having watched several reviews, there does seem to be little difference between a 6 and the longer irons.

Love my C300 Forged. For me they are the perfect lofts. 7 iron goes 175 yds. That’s enough, and also the reason I never updated to D7 or D9 Forged, or the new Dynapowers

I only wish I could justify $1400 for a set, {sigh}.

Have the C300s in the bag at the moment. Very soft feel. Brilliant clubs. To me Wilson is underrated. They make wonderful golf clubs. Oh, and the new ones look amazing. Might be time to upgrade.
