Mizuno JPX-800 Pro

Mizuno JPX-800

TaylorMade Burner 2.0

Ping's K15 irons are designed to be the

most forgiving iron in the Ping range. The lightweight titanium face is combined with a stainless steel body and wide sole to help produce a high ball

flight as well as maximum forgiveness.

Mizuno's new JPX-800 and JPX-800 Pro irons are also

designed with forgiveness in mind. However, a new manufacturing process means the face

has been made thinner for added distance through the set.

TaylorMade new Burner 2.0 irons also

promise impressive distance. By designing each club separately TaylorMade has

been able to hit a wide variety of performance benefits through the different

areas of the set.
