Frequently Asked Questions – Irons

What are golf irons used for?

Irons are used for a wide range of shots, mainly from the fairway or rough. They’re designed for accuracy and control, with shorter shafts and more loft than woods.

What’s the difference between cavity back and blade irons?

Cavity back irons are more forgiving and ideal for beginners or mid-handicappers. Blade irons (or muscle backs) offer more precision and feel but are better suited to experienced players.

What does a typical iron set include?

Most iron sets include 6 or 7 clubs—usually from 5-iron to pitching wedge (sometimes 4-iron or approach wedge included). Each product listing will show exactly what’s included in the set.

Should I choose steel or graphite shafts?

Steel shafts are heavier and offer more control—great for stronger or faster swingers. Graphite shafts are lighter and help generate speed, ideal for players with slower swings or those seeking a softer feel.

What flex should I choose?

Regular flex suits most average swing speeds. Stiff or extra stiff are better for faster swings, while senior or ladies flex works well for slower swings or more control. Check the product description or ask us for personalised advice.
