ever increasing distances with irons

just looking at the new callaway x -24's on their website.....

i think my pw is 48*,no wonder clubs are going longer and longer when the manufacturers are de-lofting them

here are the club lofts,seem a bit strong to me with the 8 - pw
4 22º
5 25º
6 28º
7 31º
8 35º
9 40º
PW45º
AW50º
SW55º

Then when they advertise the clubs as being super long and hot off the face. They are significantly stronger than the below spec for Titleist AP2's
4 24º
5 27º
6 31º
7 35º
8 39º
9 43º
PW47º
AW51º

As above a Titleist AP2 7 iron loft is a Callaway x-24 8 Iron!

It's clever in that at the high end they get to flog you a gap wedge to bridge the distance gap between PW and SW whilst at the low end with a 4 iron playing like a 3 they get to flog a hybrid club to anyone struggling to get that low a loft into the air.

Never thought much of any Callaway product TBH though the Odyssey putters are nice.
