Mercedes AMG and high performance have been synonymous in the automobile world and now it will see if it can replicate the association in golf equipment.
WSH, Inc. will introduced a Mercedes AMG Formula One line of equipment at the PGA Merchandise Show here this week.
“We were granted a global sports licence license from Mercedes AMG, for doing a line of clubs, apparel and accessories under their prestigious logo,” said WSH, Inc. CEO Michael Lee, the founder of Nickent Golf. “Under Mercedes, our approach is that anything associated with Formula One isn’t going to be cheap. Our initial convesation with Mercedes Stuttgart is that we want to create a line that the Mercedes owner can enjoy. It doesn’t necessarily have to be a $2,000 driver. But we’re launching it right at $399. That’s the ceiling of drivers these days.”
Three sets of irons will be introduced as well, along with wedges and putters.
Its driver and fairway wood technology, developed in concert with Mercedes’ aerodynamicists, feature Venturi Channels, which have been used in Formula One cars “to manipulate airflow whereby a funnel is created as air flows through the vehicle, and is constricted, and as it flows out…a jet effect is created,” according to a company news release.

From the Forums: I need more forgiveness in my irons – Looking for recommendations
In our forums, our members have been discussing the most forgiving irons currently on the market. WRXer ‘TheShark1’ is on the hunt for a new set of irons, saying:
“Currently gaming the Mizuno Pro 225’s but think I need more forgiveness in my irons. My well struck shots are real nice, but my mishits are not performing as good as I had hoped anymore. I really like hollow body irons so if I could find something more forgiving in a hollow body iron that would be great.
Open to any and all recommendations other than Ping. Can’t hit Ping irons at all.”
And our members have been sharing their best suggestions in our forum.
Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.
- AvidSwampThing66: “Another vote for the super forgiving and fast Paradym irons. They look really good for being a GI iron.”
- bobfoster: “I just went from MP20 MMCs to the new 245s in my scoring irons (just played my first round with them today). If you have a chance to try them, you might find them worth a serious look.”
- vman: “Shoot me down, but spend the money on lessons.”
- J_Tizzle: “i525s are great off the heel in my opinion.”

Hiya, I’m really glad I have found this intmioafron. Today bloggers publish only about gossips and net and this is really frustrating. A good web site with interesting content, that’s what I need. Thank you for keeping this website, I’ll be visiting it. Do you do newsletters? Can’t find it.
