Fourteen Golf introduces TF-616 irons, expands TF wedge line

Fourteen Golf has officially launched its new TF-616 irons. The California-based company also announced it is expanding loft options on the TF Wedge series.

Fourteen’s TF-616 irons are targeted at mid-handicappers who need a little more forgiveness but still want to play a forged iron. They feature a single material structure engineered with an undercut cavity during the manufacturing process, according to chief operating officer, Masashi Kamoda. The design is intended to maximize center-of-gravity in the iron.

See what GolfWRX members are saying aboutthe TF-616 irons in our forum.

“Fourteen Golf is excited to offer the new TF-616 irons, which have been designed specifically for mid-handicap players who have been looking for the soft feel of a forged iron while not wanting to sacrifice ease of use,” Kamoda said.

“In our longer irons, the center-of-gravity (CG) is set as deep as possible, helping to get the ball up in the air quickly and promoting a longer ball flight,” Kamoda explained. “In the short irons, the CG is placed as shallow as possible, with a higher CG height. This promotes well-controlled shots and a more penetrating ball flight.”

With respect to the TF wedge, which is already sold in lofts of 52, 56, and 60 degrees, Fourteen is adding 50- and 58-degree lofts.

Tour player input was critical to the TF wedge design, according to Fourteen. The pros are often looking to create different shots using the same wedge. Accordingly, the engineers at Fourteen rounded the toe and heel areas of the TF wedges and removed the rear portion of the sole for maximum shot-type options.

MSRP for TF-616 irons in sets of 4-iron through Pitching Wedge is $1,000. The TF Wedge series, MSRP: $150. Fourteen has also recently redesigned and relaunched its website, which is the best avenue for club purchases.

What’s the perfect mini-driver/shaft combo? – GolfWRXers discuss

In our forums, our members have been discussing Mini-Drivers and accompanying shafts. WRXer ‘JamesFisher1990’ is about to purchase a BRNR Mini and is torn on what shaft weight to use, and our members have been sharing their thoughts and set ups 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.

PARETO: “New BRNR at 13.5. Took it over to TXG (Club Champ but TXG will always rule) in Calgary for a fit. Took the head down to 12, stuck in a Graphite Design AD at 3 wood length and 60g. Presto- numbers that rivaled my G430Max but with waaaaay tighter dispersion. Win.”
driveandputtmachine: “Still playing a MIni 300. The head was only 208, so I ordered a heavier weight and play it at 3 wood length. I am playing a Ventus Red 70. I play 70 grams in my fairways. I use it mainly to hit draws off the tee. When I combine me, a driver, and trying to hit a draw it does not work out well most of the time. So the MIni is for that. As an aside, I have not hit the newest BRNR, but the previous model wasn’t great off the deck. The 300 Mini is very good off the deck.”
JAM01: “Ok, just put the BRNR in the bag along side a QI10 max and a QI10 3 wood. A load of top end redundancy. But, I have several holes at my two home courses where the flight and accuracy of the mini driver helps immensely. Mine is stock Proforce 65 at 13.5, I could see a heavier shaft, but to normal flex, as a nice alternative.”
