Callaway Elyte X Irons

Strong lofts are the point of the Elyte X, and the 7-iron is 28 degrees. That puts it a degree ahead of the standard Elyte and two ahead of the HL and Max Fast models, which is a meaningful gap once it compounds through a six club set. The build is multi-material with a stainless steel face. True Temper Vector covers steel and Project X Denali Charcoal covers graphite, senior through X-stiff, with left-handed sets available in the 5-PW run.

X models in a game improvement family usually mean more speed and less spin, and that's the case here. Golfers who already carry a comfortable distance and want tighter dispersion should look at the standard Elyte instead. Anyone whose 7-iron isn't going far enough will find the extra loft strength does the work. Speed is the whole pitch.
