subject: Cool Black Callaway X-22 Tour Irons Review [print this page] The Callaway X-22 Tour Irons are an improvement on the X-20 Tour Irons and are designed with more professional players in mind. Callaway Golf's engineers packed the X-22 Tours with a host of technological aids. These irons were released this year, but many shops have been selling them at discount golf prices. However we should first check out the technologies.
Precision Notch Weighting: Precisely positions more weight to the perimeter of the iron to create a higher MOI for greater forgiveness and stability while maintaining the CG position that produces ideal trajectories and feel.
Tour-Proven Head Shape: Features the thinnest topline possible while still incorporating a 360-Degree Undercut Channel. The blade length is shorter and the CG has been moved lower and in line with the center of the face to provide unparalleled performance with enhanced feel.
Redesigned Hosel: The sleeker design significantly improves feel and allows the hosel to be more easily adjusted to fit a golfer's custom specifications.
Sole Width Progression: The sole width of each iron has been optimized based on the length and loft to provide better turf interaction through the entire set.
Callaway Golf Core Technologies: VFT Technology maximizes ball speed and perimeter weighting for more distance and forgiveness. 360-Degree Undercut Channel maximizes perimeter weighting by moving the CG lower and farther back in the clubhead, enlarging the hitting area and stabilizing the clubhead for more forgiveness.
The Callaway X-22 Tour irons should be the best choice for a 8 to 12 handicapper only because while they have a lot of technology to improve moment of inertia (MOI) to make up for those who do not hit the ball square all the time. They still give you a lot of feel to work the ball. And the price could not be low until you can find them sold at discount golf prices in some shops.
