subject: Tour Winner Callaway X-22 Irons Review [print this page] We start to see more and more "Game Improvement" clubs make their way into the hands of tour players. And the Callaway X-22 irons are some of the best golf clubs that amateurs and professional golfers can play. These are the rare golf clubs for sale on the market designed for high handicappers that also are PGA Tour-worthy, as evidenced by the fact that they are in Rocco Mediate's bag.
"Precision Notch Weighting" aids in the precise positioning of more weight to the perimeter of the club to generate a higher moment of inertia for greater forgiveness and stability whilst maintaining the centre of gravity position that produces ideal trajectories and feel.
The Callaway X-22 irons also feature the modified "Tru-Bore" design, an advanced version of the original design. A polycarbonate plug at the end of the shaft leads to improved "feel" and performance as a result of less vibration. The clubhead shape features aspects designed for professional players, such as a thinner top line and narrow sole. However, Callaway has succeeded in combining such facets with an excellent visual appearance and a large sweet spot into a highly forgiving set of irons that can be played by a wide range of golfers of varying abilities.
"VFT Technology" helps to increase ball speed from the clubface for additional distance, whilst the S2H2 hosel shifts weight from the club hosel to the perimeter of the clubhead. A 360 degree undercut channel further aids peripheral weighting by making the centre of gravity lower and further back in the clubhead, making for a bigger hitting area and a stable clubhead, adding even more forgiveness. The Callaway X-22 irons are available in both right and left handed models, with a choice of flexes in both steel and graphite shafts.
