subject: Titleist 755 CB Iron Set Appeal to a Wider Range of Players [print this page] When Titleist introduced its 735.CM irons about a year ago, and its 775 CB irons earlier this year, the company identified them as aimed at skilled golfers and "aspirational" golfers, respectively. Those players who were already very good, and those who weren't yet but hope to be some day.
Now, Titleist has a new set of irons ready, one that fits in-between the two aforementioned sets and which, the company says, is its new "flagship" set of irons.
That set is the Titleist 755 Irons, which joins the Forged 700 series. The 755 Irons are mid-sized with a larger-volume cavity back, irons that Titleist brags combine looks, feel and forgiveness - and replace the 704.CB in the company's lineup.
Features:
Thin Face Design creates a larger volume cavity and allows weight to be repositioned lower, to the perimeter for increased forgiveness and playability.
Enhanced Heel-Toe Weighting redistributes 10 grams of weight from the face for a higher moment of inertia and greater clubhead stability.
Vibration Dampening Chip reinforces the thin face and significantly reduces vibration for greater feedback while improving sound and feel.
High-Performance Sole with a rolled leading edge prevents digging in soft conditions. Progressive bounce angles reduce skipping in firmer conditions for crisp, consistent contact.
Optimized CG Position offers easy initial launch with a controllable ball flight.
Dual Hosel Lengths relocate weight lower in the 2-7 irons for easier initial launch while longer hosels in the 8-P raise the CG slightly for superior knock-down control.
Soft, Forged Feel of 410 stainless steel with a non-glare satin finish creates the soft feel and sound preferred by better golfers and allows for a wider range of custom options.
Progressive Appearance of the topline, offset, sole width and blade length provides continuity through the set for a seamless transition from playable long irons to more traditional short irons.
