Wilson Sporting Goods has officially launched the Wilson D9 irons for the 2021 season – which feature the company’s lowest-ever center of gravity in an iron.

Following on from the brand’s D7 irons, the new additions were created using Wilson’s generative design process, which uses computer modeling to simulate hundreds of variations to optimize power hole size and configuration.

The new D9 irons contain strategically positioned, urethane-filled Power Holes designed to enable maximum face flex for improved speeds. The new Power Hole 2.0 arrangements also aim to increase deflection and allow more energy transfer to the ball, across the entire face – resulting in higher ball speeds and greater distance.

The latest irons from Wilson feature the company’s lowest-ever center of gravity in an iron which aims to increase launch angles as well as delivering a steeper angle of descent for increased green-side control.

In addition, the irons contain straighter lines, a cleaner top line and an ultra-thin face compared to its predecessors, with the D9 irons combining the look of a player’s iron with the benefits of super game improvement distance technology.

Speaking on the new Wilson D9 irons for 2021, Jon Pergande, Manager of Wilson Golf Club Innovation said

“The D9 irons represents a technological advancement showcasing Wilson’s future approach to iron design and development. This software uses over 100 processor cores of computing power to analyze the sequential versions of each club design we worked through before arriving on the final D9 line.”

The steel irons are outfitted with the lightweight 80 gram KBS Max Ultralite shafts, while the graphite iterations boast MRC Tensei shafts. The D9 irons feature the new softer Lamkin Crossline Genesis grips.

The D9 irons will be available for sale on Wilson.com and in retailers starting on Tuesday, January 26th. Retail price for the D9 irons is $649.99 Steel and $749.99 Graphite.
