From their Twitter:

Blog link:

http://www.titleist....lity-irons.aspx

"The 712U is currently a Tour-only product, but the feedback we receive during this validation period will influence the final design and specifications, as well as determine the product's place in the Titleist club line-up."

The last time someone said that, it turned into a retail offering... *cough*CallawayXUtility*cough*. Titleist fans better start drumming up the support now!

Damn that is fiiiiine...

All you guys owe that dude an apology in that other thread, he tried to tell y'all that one was coming out. He was ridiculed and it turns out he was correct.

You're Welcome!

Seriously though, so many were wrong on this, including several people that were supposed "in the know."

I was going to say the exact same thing... TM, Callaway, and now Titleist... I love competition.

Like the 503i, I can imagine some of these protos/Tour versions will hit ebay eventually for a nice chunk of change. At least until Titleist decides if they will go retail with these.

OMG!!   Nice alternative since they don't offer a 2 iron in the MB sets anymore.   Mizuno Fli-Hi style hybrid is coming back around...

Wow I would really love to see this come to retail.  Titleist could have a big time winner here.

+1

I've been looking into a possible combo set and the MB/CB was an option... but 9-5 in the MBs plus two of these in the 3 and 4 just may fit the bill.

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...

Just saw this on twitter aswell. This will be such a great option to add to the bag. This will be perfect to fill the gap that I have. Lets hope this goes retail!

Isn't that interesting? Although Mizuno and most of the Japanese companies have stuck with a driving/utility iron offering in most recent years. 2013 is shaping up to be a good year for equipment so far.

I want (NEED) two of these (2+2) in order to get a 1i!
