TaylorMade says most golfers using game-improvement irons tend to slice and question why many irons in that category have a fade bias in the long irons. The design of the new Qi and Qi HL irons was predicated on making clubs that tend to hit straight shots with little fade bias and importantly, loft dependent placement of the center of gravity.
The Qi HL irons for slower swing speed golfers are lighter, up to 26g lighter, than a standard Qi iron and have stronger lofts to produce more distance.
“These irons epitomize TaylorMade’s continual evolution in game improvement designs,” said Matt Bovee, Director of Product Creation Irons. “We maintain the elevated forgiveness and ease-of-use, but package it with a clean look that any golfer would proudly display in their bag. In essence, we are delivering both distance and forgiveness within a more consistent and accurate package. All while achieving a larger sweet spot and a feel akin to forged irons.”
Combo sets with the Qi10 Rescues in various configurations are available as well.
