Best utility irons on the market – GolfWRXers discuss

In our forums, our members have been discussing utility irons. WRXer ‘Top_Swings’ is looking for a UI to hit off the tee and from the fairway and reaches out to our members saying: “I am thinking a 2 iron. I hit the ZX and absolutely loved it, so those of you that have hit some, how do they compare? Thanks!”
And our members have been sharing their top picks 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.
- DCCarpenter: “I have the Wilson Staff Utility Iron at 24 degrees. I really like it; it has saved the day on windy days where I’ve ended up using it off of every tee. I’ve had some good success with it off the deck from tight and regular lies, not sure it’s great from the heavy rough. They make it in 18, 21, and 24. I’d really like to try the 18 version off the tee just to see how the carry goes vs my 24.”
- ciscojaws: “I just got a 19* Mizuno MP18 MMC FliHi and played 9 today using it off the tee. Love it. I hit the ZX and the Ping Crossover as well, but for me this one looks better at address and feels great. Ping Crossover felt dead, and the ZX was a little too small.”
- MarkRip: “I picked up a Sub 70 699U. It is just as easy to hit off the tee or the fairway.”
- R5Two: “Swear, Titleist T200 (2021) utility build is the best it gets for fairway and tee. Just enough help, but still can shape shots. It’s a rocket.”
- dodgyman: “Definitely demo the Srixon ZX utility. Replaced my U510 with it and not looking back.”
