We tested: 18°, 21°, 24° in TFC 909H
graphite shaft

Company line: "A heavy tungsten-nickel
soleplate contributes to higherlaunching,
lower-spinning shots. Thin,
super steel face provides hot, responsive
hitting area. A sloped crown increases
launch angle and reduces spin."

Our Test Panel says: Pretty good sticks;
can feel head weight from takeaway
through impact; stable going through
rough; impact feel is dull and
uneventful; relatively low takeoff leads
to good carry; off-center hits can go
awry; straight silver line across crown
is useful visual aid.

Solid, dependable clubs.—Jeff McKinney, 15 Handicap
