After 70 years, Wilson Golf reimagines Dynapower line of clubs

Published

on

Wilson Golf has today announced the re-launch of its Dynapower franchise – a complete equipment line including adjustable drivers, fairway woods, hybrids and irons that will be available for pre-order on Wednesday, February 22nd.

In 1956, Wilson introduced the original Dynapower iron and its patented bore-through hosel design that revolutionized weight distribution. By drilling weight out of the hosel, Wilson was able to redistribute weight directly behind the hitting area for more power. The 2023 Dynapower irons build on this same weighting concept in an effort to redefine distance.

“Dynapower changed the game of golf seven decades ago and it’s time for Wilson to do it again. These powerful irons and adjustable drivers are built with our legendary history in mind as we continue to innovate and deliver top-of-the-line products that raise the confidence of golfers at all skill levels. Our technology is second-to-none and we’re extremely proud of this new line of Dynapower products.” – Tim Clarke, President, Wilson Golf

Dynapower Irons

Women’s iron

The Dynapower irons feature a high MOI head design for stability on off-center hits and a low center-of-gravity that aims to fuel high launch and steeper descent angles.

In addition, the irons feature a pleasing top line and optimal offset in design for a powerful and balanced look at address.

  • Pricing: Dynapower Steel Irons: $799.99 / Dynapower Graphite Irons: $899.99

New for 2023 is the family of Dynapower adjustable drivers, fairway woods and hybrids. New Dynapower drivers are available in two options—Carbon or Titanium—each offering thousands of custom fit settings. Complementary fairway woods and hybrids round out the offering, all available in men’s and women’s options.

Dynapower Carbon Driver

The adjustable Dynapower Carbon driver was designed for tour-caliber performance.

Carbon panels on the crown and sole aim to help produce a lower spinning, mid-launch ball flight that allows maximum workability and maximum distance.

The PKR2 dynamic face thickness is optimized over the extended area of the clubface in design to power faster ball speeds.

In addition, the new six-way adjustable hosel allows players to change their loft and spin in a matter of seconds.

  • Pricing: Dynapower Carbon Driver: $499.99

Dynapower Titanium Driver 

The new Dynapower Titanium driver was designed to deliver tour-level power with maximum forgiveness.

A 16-gram rear weight helps produce a high MOI driver head with a deep, rear CG that seeks to deliver forgiving, mid-to-high launch angles with a neutral-to-draw bias.

As with the Carbon driver, the PKR2 dynamic face thickness is optimized over the extended area of the clubface in a bid to power faster ball speeds, while the new six-way adjustable hosel allows players to change their loft and spin in a matter of seconds.

Women’s driver

  • Pricing: Dynapower Titanium Driver: $429.99

Dynapower Fairway Woods 

The Dynapower Fairway Woods feature rear weighting and variable face thickness in a bid to deliver the fastest ball speeds over the entire face for higher, soaring ball flight.

The new additions feature a 12-gram rear weight to produce a stable, high MOI club head that seeks to deliver forgiving, higher launch angles.

Per Wilson, Tour player testing resulted in a flatter profile for a clean setup behind the ball.

Women’s Fairway

  • Pricing: Dynapower Fairway Woods: $249.99

Dynapower Hybrids 

The Dynapower Hybrids showcase a low center of gravity (CG) and variable face thickness in a bid to deliver easy-to-launch ball flight, precise distance, and a tour-player preferred flatter profile for a confident setup.

Internal weighting positions the CG low and back to produce a high MOI clubhead that is designed for more forgiveness and higher launch angles.

Like the fairway woods, Tour player testing resulted in a flatter profile for a clean setup behind the ball.

Women’s hybrid

  • Pricing: Dynapower Hybrids: $219.99

The Dynapower clubs are available for pre-sale on Wilson.com starting Wednesday, Feb. 22 and at select retail locations beginning March 1.

    Why do Wilson bother with this stuff?
    I’m sure it performs ok, but who would buy it and why?

Accra launches new GX wood and hybrid shafts

Published

on

Accra Golf shafts have long been synonymous with fitting, and the new GX line of driver, fairway, and hybrid shafts continues that legacy.

Since 2004, Accra has been making high-end performance golf shafts that use the latest in materials and design philosophy. Their group of around 350 fitters are some of the best and most highly ranked in the world. While you might see other brands on professional tours more often, there are plenty of touring pros using Accra products and winning.

Accra’s new GX line of shafts is designed to offer a consistent and accurate shaft to a wide range of players. The GX line consists of 3 different shafts in driver, fairway, and hybrid designs.

The Accra GX shafts are designed for fitters to dial in golfers to the perfect shaft for their swing. Accra included a ton of technology into the GX line including their S3 profiling, DyMatch, and Constant Flex technology. DyMatch has been Accra’s quest to ensure that all shafts in a family feel and perform similar from driver to hybrid or iron shaft. Typically shafts get stiffer as they go up in weight, but Accra’s Constant Flex keeps the flex of the shafts consistent so fitters and golfers can dial in the weight that the golfer need without have to work around a stiffer or softer flex. Accra worked with Cool Clubs to build out its S3 Shaft Profiling system that not only allows a quick and easy EI profile of any shaft, it helps with quality control to ensure shafts come out of production exactly as they were designed.

Accra GX Red 300 Series

GX Red is lowest launching and spinning option in the GX line. Driver shafts have fewer options with just the 360 and 370 models that come in at 63 and 71 grams. The GX Red is made for faster swinging, or stronger, players who require a stiff (M4) or x-stiff (M5) shaft for their swing. Fairway and hybrid models are also on the higher weight side with the fairway clocking in at 80g and 90g for the hybrid. Accra designed this series with one of the stiffest tip sections of any Accra shaft in the current line, and while it is built to control launch and spin, the Red 300 Series will still offer that smooth feel.

Accra GX Green 100 Series

If your swing usually works best with mid-launch and spin, then the GX Green 200 series might be the right shaft for you. Offered in more weight and flex options, you can get a GX Green in 52 grams and all the way up to 70 grams in regular, stiff, and x-stiff flexes. GX Green will give the player a smooth feel and transition from the handle down to the tip section while still providing great stability and consistency. Accra also focused on the energy transfer of this shaft, and golfers can see some increased ball speed compared to other shafts.

Accra GX Blue 200 Series

While the GX Blue 100 Series is the highest launching and spinning option in the GX lineup, it will still give golfers the control and consistency they need. Starting off at 40g, the GX Blue series puts an emphasis on lighter weight to allow players to swing the club faster, promoting more distance. Accra touts the stability of the GX 140 Blue driver shaft by stating that some long driver competitors have put it in play to try and gain every MPH they can. Matching fairway and hybrid shafts are both on the lighter side at around 60g for the fairway and 65g for the hybrid depending on the flex.
