FORGIVENESS RATING
20g of tungsten weighting in the 3-7 iron lowers the centre of gravity and increases launch angle without increasing spin, say Wilson. That means a higher peak height in the long and mid-irons and a steeper descent angle for attacking the pin. Each head is forged from 8620 carbon steel.
The V6 throws up a real conundrum, its head size is one of the smallest on test. It’s natural to expect a smaller head to be less forgiving, but with one of the largest and deepest cavity backs in the category and plenty of tungsten toe and heel weighting, the V6 makes up for its lack of size by turning in a strong performance. Wilson’s engineers have rinsed every last bit of forgiveness out of such a streamlined head, thanks mainly to the tungsten weighting and cavity size.
