Tommy Armour launches new Atomic line, featuring woods, hybrids, and irons
Tommy Armour has launched its latest club lineup – Atomic, which includes woods, hybrids, and irons, and all of which feature a DAT 55 titanium cup face. The material is 25 percent stronger than standard titanium in an aim to produce higher ball speeds for longer distance.
Tommy Armour Atomic driver, hybrids, fairways
The new driver and hybrids from the company contain a 40 percent larger carbon crown, which allows for 10 grams of discretionary weight, which is repositioned to increase MOI and forgiveness.
According to Tommy Armour, the 360-degree aerodynamic design lowers turbulence by 20 percent at the crown, thus improving clubhead efficiency. The combination of a cup face design, with high strength DAT 55 beta titanium, has helped lead to a larger, thinner, and faster face than its predecessors.
The Atomic driver is available in both right-handed (9 and 10.5 degrees) and left-handed (10.5 degrees) options and costs $399.99. The Atomic fairway wood and hybrid also arrive in both left and right-handed options and cost $249.99 and $229.99 respectively.
Atomic, Atomic Max irons
The Atomic and Atomic Max irons from Tommy Armour feature a face which is 60 percent lighter than steel. 60 grams of tungsten of discretionary weight has been designed into the sole of the clubs in order to move the CG lower and more towards the toe of the irons in a bid to provide players with added forgiveness.
The titanium cup face is brazed to the body of the club in a design, which bids to produce faster ball speeds while saving weight to improve forgiveness.
The Atomic Max set arrives in a choice of both steel and graphite options and are available in both right and left-handed options too. The Atomic irons and Atomic Max irons cost $799.99.
The new additions from Tommy Armour are available to purchase now exclusively at DICK’S Sporting Goods and Golf Galaxy stores nationwide.

I just got the new driver. I’ve owned and played all the big name drivers. This is the best driver I’ve ever hit. If you want or need a new driver, this should definitely be one that you try out. Don’t let the lack of a big name hold you back.

These wouldn’t be a big seller even at $149/driver.
.
3 more years and this brand will have disappeared.

Right on that, could get down to $50 dollar trade in value faster then the Wilson Triton did.
