TaylorMade SpeedBlade irons deliver massive distance

Recreation & Leisure

In the 2013 U.S. Open the shot of the tournament was Justin Rose’s 4-iron on the final hole. He was one of the only players in the field to reach that green in regulation. His clutch par there helped him claim his first major championship. That 4-iron was a TaylorMade SpeedBlade irons.

It is a design property which helps players who hit shots low on the face. That would be an overwhelming percentage of players in the handicap range from 5-25. The result of those low strikes on the face is low trajectory. The Speed Pocket helps those players launch the ball higher. If you’ve never done one of these fittings I highly recommend it.

The 4-iron of the SpeedBlade set was quite amazing for me. In fact, on one shot to an elevated par-4 from 225, I hit it so well I was past the green about 15 yards. The thing is long, as is the rest of the set. That length is due to many factors like the club head design, slightly longer shafts, and strong lofts. At the end of my fitting the computer spit out the perfect specs for my swing and game, and the perfect set of irons, the TaylorMade Tour Preferred MB irons 2014.

The SpeedBlade irons have a two-tone, satin nickel chrome plating with dark smoke satin ion plating that looks great. More importantly than the finish these irons feature a newly engineered speed pocket, a handle-bar shaped slot in the sole of the TaylorMade SLDR Irons that enables a large area of the face to flex and rebound at impact, resulting in faster ball speed, higher launch and better feel.

Finally, I must say, the performance of the SpeedBlades is eyebrow raising here, in a good way. In a few instances, well-struck shots appear to fly past my target. Short irons, while still forgiving and powerful, are also precise. It’s an impressive display of ball striking all around.
