Single-Piece Forged Construction

Each X forged iron is forged from a single piece of 1020 carbon steel. This one-piece construction produces a soft, responsive feel at impact, with a crisp sound that provides immediate feedback on strike quality. The forging process allows for precise shaping and consistency from head to head, reinforcing the sense of connection skilled players expect.

Tour-Preferred Shape

The head shape is compact and clean, with a thin topline, minimal offset, and a streamlined cavity back. At the address, the club sits square and uncluttered behind the ball, encouraging confident, committed swings. The shaping is deliberately understated, appealing to players who prefer a traditional look without visual distraction.

Tri-Level Sole Design

A tri-level sole with bevelled leading and trailing edges improves turf interaction across a variety of lies. The design allows the club to enter and exit the turf smoothly, helping maintain speed through impact and supporting consistent contact. This refined sole geometry is particularly effective for players who control trajectory and strike location.

On-Course Performance

On the course, X Forged produces a penetrating, controlled ball flight with predictable spin. Centre strikes feel soft and precise, while slight misses provide clear, honest feedback without becoming harsh. The irons respond well to shot shaping, making it easier to flight the ball down, work it both ways, and control distance into the greens. They reward quality swings, but remain consistent enough to trust under pressure.

Who It Suits

X Forged is designed for accomplished golfers, competitive amateurs, and confident ball-strikers who prioritise feel and precision. it’s best suited to players who want a traditional forged iron with modern refinement, rather than built-in forgiveness or distance bias.
