Manufacturer's Description Details: Pushing the envelope of the golf technology, the new Pinemeadow Excel Hollow Core Irons bring your game to a whole new level. These irons are unique and one of a kind. They are designed with three types of materials to increase distance and maintain accuracy.
The club features a thin beta titanium face which will increase rebound at impact. A hollow core stainless steel body completely removes the weight from the center of the club head, which dramatically expands the area of forgiveness. A steel wall around the face improves forgiveness by moving the weigh to the back of the head for higher MOI. A unique rubber backing dampens vibration, improves sound and feel. Distance, accuracy and feel make the PMG HC irons the complete iron set in golf today.
The hollow core gives you a noticeably lighter club that will maximize distance. The PW and SW do not feature the hollow core backing because you want a little more weight in your wedges. This is normal for all iron sets.
Our Review: In the manufacturers description it says "dramatically expands the area of forgiveness". The use of 'dramatically' makes it sound like a lot of hype, but boy, trying is believing. These irons ARE forgiving. Due to their lighter weight one has to get used to the clubs, and looking at the ball marks I hit the balls all over the club face. The feel and the ball flight though were like I hit the ball dead center, with only minimal 'spraying'. I have to admit that the use of the word 'dramatically' seems justified when discribing the forgiving characteristics of these irons.
Since the clubhead is a bit lighter than that of normal irons the swing tends to be faster, which in turn adds somewhere between 10 to 20 yards in carry, plus some roll. The lighter head also causes less of a wobble which is probably the reason for the increased consistency when hitting this club.
One has to get used to the looks of the irons. Callaway©, when they released their Big Bertha Fusion irons (after which the Excel Hollow Core Ti Irons are modelled) called them "the most untraditional traditional-looking irons ever". While I'm not clear what exactly that means these irons do look 'different', but given the ease of play I can get used to that.
Likes: VERY forgiving and consistent clubs
Dislikes: The rubber backing gives this club a bit of an odd look - but maybe I'm just too old fashioned...
