Callaway RAZR X Tour irons
Last updated:
RRP: £699 (set of eight, steel)
LOFTS: 6-iron: 29 degrees, PW: 45 degrees
TECH TALK The centre of gravity has been moved lower and deeper than last year’s similarly shaped X-22 Tour. The face technology varies the thickness in specific areas on each iron to optimise the sweetspot. True Temper Dynamic Gold shafts are standard.
PLAYER COMMENTS
L “The best iron I’ve hit. The results were amazing on off-centre strikes, and you could feel the club cut the turf with a nice clip.” … “You need the skilled hands of a diamond cutter to get these to move left or right. They’re built for a straight and high ball flight.”
HOT Ever since introducing its forged X-Tour model in 2005, Callaway has tried to surpass that design, but the results have been mixed. We have no such reservations about the RAZR X Tour. It has the right amount of forgiveness with a look that still says you’re a player.
NOT No matter how good you make a cast club, some better players aren’t going to be swayed.
