New redefined Wilson Staff Model irons launch
Wilson has unveiled all-new Wilson Staff Model Irons, the company’s Next Generation of Staff Model Blades.
Wilson Advisory Staff Member and three-time winner on the PGA Tour, Brendan Steele collaborated with the Wilson Labs team to assist in the development of the new Staff Model irons, and speaking on the blades, Steele said
“To be able to genuinely provide my insight on the next generation on FG Tour 100 irons was an experience I’ll never forget. By design, we crafted the new Staff Model irons to have a similar look as the FG Tour 100, which was critical as I continue to evaluate changes to my equipment.”
The Staff Model Irons from Wilson contain a shape similar to the FG Tour 100 while retaining the Fluid Feel Hosel construction which helps to re-distribute weight with the aim of providing maximum feel, while the milled face on Wilson’s new additions aims to provide improved control and greater feel.
Speaking on the latest irons from Wilson, Global Innovation Manager at the company, Jon Pergande stated
“Through precise performance and visually pleasing aesthetics, the Staff Model irons combine the look and feel demanded by today’s players. Brendan’s influence on these irons was impactful, and with the phenomenal expertise of the Wilson LABS team, we knew these irons were going to be an extremely polished product.”
The forged 8620 carbon steel is combined with a high polish mirror finish to complete the blades look, while the new additions from Wilson maintain a thinner top line at address, a detail which Steele made a priority. The all-new Staff Model Irons feature True Temper Dynamic Gold Shafts, and each one possesses a Golf Pride Tour Velvet Grip.
Specs:
The Staff Model Irons are available to buy for $1199.99.

Coolest thing for sale in the GolfWRX Classifieds (5/13/24): Full set of ‘Tiger Slam’ clubs
At GolfWRX, we are a community of like-minded individuals that all experience and express our enjoyment of the game in many ways.
It’s that sense of community that drives day-to-day interactions in the forums on topics that range from best driver to what marker you use to mark your ball. It even allows us to share another thing we all love – buying and selling equipment.
Currently, in our GolfWRX buy/sell/trade (BST) forum, there is a listing for a full set of ‘Tiger Slam’ clubs.
From the seller: (@CaymanS): “During the year of recovery from leg surgery that never quite healed, I was bored. One thing led to another, and I ended up gradually building/acquiring the individual pieces to complete a set of “Tiger Slam” clubs. They are what Tiger played to win 4 consecutive majors, which nobody has ever done. This is not an exact replica of course, but something close that fit me to play a few times per year and experience what Tiger did. But my bad leg, 4 shoulder tears, and age prevents me from the ball-striking needed to enjoy these to their fullest. They may not be everyone’s cup of tea, especially since the driver and fairway shafts are regular flex and most players good enough to play these will need to change them, but it’s not a perfect world. I am not a historian on this stuff, but my research indicates these are the same models Tiger used, with slightly different specs to fit me.
Full set $1,600, or…
…a donation for a Pro Kids fundraiser, or…
Driver: $70
Fairway: $250
Irons: $1,100
Wedges: $100
Putter: $350″

It would be nice if they could make mid-handicap cavity backs look like this. For example, I’m playing the Bridgestone J40 DPC’s. If you have seen those, you’ll know what I am talking about. Simple and clean.

For a player’s iron from a OEM whose blades have won more majors than any other brand, their lofts are about 2 degrees stronger than other OEMs. My 845s are supposed to be GI irons when they first came out but its PW is 48 deg, not 46 like this one.

…………”The forged 8620 carbon steel is combined…..”
It is not forged, it is cast then pressed for stampings. It has 20% carbon steel in it, and the other 80% is an alloy with added compounds. Not a true forge. But that is like everything else in life. All BS and no substance. PR people are like lawyers, full of it.
Having said that, if you like them, by them.

Why don’t they forge using 1025? Adams did the 8620 forged and I personally didn’t like them
