EXOTICS CB PRO TUNGSTEN

VERDICT It’s not the most attractive iron on our list, but the heft screams you’re going to be able to pro- duce a powerful strike. In some ways it’s like a good IPA beer—not for everyone, but thoroughly enjoyable for those who appreciate the extra boost. The hollow-body irons have a boatload of tungsten in the sole (from 90 to 95 grams, depending on the iron) that greatly assists launch without having to rely on an extra wide sole to do so. The beveled leading edge of the sole blasts through the turf, helping mitigate those fat shots middle-handicappers have from time to time.

COMMENTS (L) These are a smooth operator, and everything comes off stable. Lots of tech, but well hidden at address. (M) If you’re trying to sandbag, you’d put these in your bag. So good for the over-the-top, shut-face, low-ball hitter.
