Wilson

Why we like it

Short of an airswing, few things are more distressing than laying the sod over the ball. How to avoid that? Wilson starts with the sole. A thicker, wider bottom on the all-hybrid-style design features more bounce than its Launch Pad predecessor. This sole allows the club to enter and exit the turf more easily. Slicing also can be an issue for this player type, so the Wilson team added weight to the heel area for a little draw bias.

• Thousands of computer simulations using artificial intelligence resulted in the leading-edge design.
• Slightly larger grips provide a comforting feel in the hands.
• 7-iron: 30 degrees; PW: 44 degrees
