New Level launches new 480-DB irons, blending performance and forgiveness
New Level has been making some really good golf equipment since the company started up in 2018. Offering irons that are more geared towards the better player, precision has been a fundamental philosophy for New Level in creating irons and wedges.
The 480 line of irons has been the flagship of the brand, and the newest member of that team is the 480-DB iron that is now open to pre-orders. A new cavity design is what the whole 480 line is about, and the 480-DB takes advantage of that with added ball speed and a larger sweet spot.
For players who require their irons to offer the best feel, rest assured the DB is a fully forged (from 1020 carbon steel) one-piece golf club. No multi-piece, hollow design with this iron.
While the 480-DB is the next generation of the popular 902-OS, New Level didn’t follow the current trend in golf by chasing distance with the new iron. They actually weakened the lofts on the 480-DB with the spec sheet showing a 33-degree 7-iron and 45-degree pitching wedge. These lofts allow the DB to have less offset while still offering consistent distance off the face.
A traditional design was also at the forefront of the new irons to make sure that golfers with an eye for detail can look down at them with confidence that they will perform under any condition.
A weight low in the back cavity will allow their master club builders to dial in the perfect weight for the golfer, no matter the length or shaft being used. New Level believes that the new 480-DB is one of the most forgiving one-piece forged irons on the market today. A pre-worn leading edge on the sole should get through the turf quickly and with reduced digging for better turf interaction.
You can pre-order the New Level 480-DB right now on the New Level website.

I can relate to the LPGA WTIB, but not this one. Wasn’t it Mickelson who said he needed better sticks?

oh, I could’a swore his driver was 44.874 and 1/3. 3 wood, 42.23 and 1/8. 5 wood 40.3 and 1/4. Hahahaha!! you guys kill me with this nonsense.

I find it interesting that Tiger had a Ping grip on his putter…did anyone else notice this?
Tony
Sep 26, 2018 at 10:29 am
This is the grip he’s been using since his amateur days. Despite all of the different grips that have come out over the last decades, he likes this one the best. And he has always blacked out the PING logo with a sharpie to keep it low key for his sponsors.

The best players use Taylormade. It’s interesting but no one wins with Callaway on tour. What does that tell you?

I like how he abuses his putter. The thing has won him a ton and earlier this year I saw him jamming it in the holes on the practice green scooping golf balls out. I’m worried about scratching my $179 putter. He doesn’t GAF. It was great seeing it.

Probably a stupid question, but why do people care what shafts Tiger Woods uses? Do they expect the same results if they were to use the same product?
MacAttack67
Sep 24, 2018 at 2:41 pm
He uses Dynamic Gold in his irons. The members here love to trash Dynamic Gold for hundreds of reasons yet it is still the #1 shaft on Tour by a mile and is played by the best players. Maybe Phil should switch back?
Ricky J Tomes
Sep 24, 2018 at 4:10 pm
The funny thing is people do expect the same results from using the same equipment he uses. Along, with the rest of the buying industry. That very thing is what drives the industry. Look how they market clubs and shafts and balls. Funny I Know.

Would you also like to know what car he drives? Or maybe what he eats for lunch? Follow them on Twitter? Color of his underwear… wait what?

Many people are questioning Tiger’s wood shafts. We’ve confirmed directly through Mitsubishi and Darrell that he’s playing Mitsubishi’s “Diamana D+ White” 70 gram in his driver and 80 gram in his fairway woods.
Jon
Sep 25, 2018 at 7:08 am
Andrew – can you use the power of Golfwrx and the Golfnerdery gods to get the details of the loft/lie of his irons – in fact I think this would be a welcome addition to all WITB. Thanks.
Tim
Sep 25, 2018 at 4:19 pm
He had Tensei orange or white prior, do we know why he switched?
Andy

What loft is his PW? What’s the gap between it and his 56?
JuannyBravo
Sep 24, 2018 at 10:25 am
lol. Tiger doesn’t need a gap wedge
Karl
Sep 24, 2018 at 11:56 am
I believe it’s 50 degrees for his PW. Old school lifts.
Jon
Sep 25, 2018 at 7:07 am
Great question. Also, 3-PW means nothing these days, it would be nice if they could list the loft/lie so we could know in much the same way as woods and hybrids are listed.
And then of course change them to his lofts then we will all play like him 🙂

Well, this might be one of those clubs that does not fit for everyone, I might be lucky enough to be in the general targeted audience. Although it may not be the greatest club, but it’s not too bad either

It’s the D+ LTD, I have one n my diver (S) flex. Smooth feeling shaft that I know. Long too.

Wrong shafts he uses the newer line not the old school ones that are 73 and 83 grams.

What´s about the length of the wood shafts? He has far less clubhead speed than at the beginning of the season.
Kevin
Sep 24, 2018 at 11:39 am
I’m curious about shaft length too, but I don’t think that is why his clubhead speed is down a little. this week he FINALLY brought is ‘range swing’ to the course. Just watch video of his smooth, controlled swing while warming up then he gets to the 1st tee and comes out of his shoes and sprays it all over the place! You would think he’d have figured that out a long time ago but he did this week. Hopefully he keeps it going at the Ryder Cup.

Are you sure he’s not playing the Diamana DF-series?

Forsure the Diamana LTD D+ graphics
Typically he has been 44.75″ driver
roughly 42.5 and 41.5 in the fairways
Matt
Sep 24, 2018 at 5:41 pm
Correction: It was 44.875″ for the driver… not 44.75… my bad
