Wilson DYNAPWR Hybrid

If long irons have stopped cooperating, this is Wilson's answer. The DYNAPWR hybrid runs five lofts from 17 to 28 degrees, a spread wide enough to cover the whole long-iron end of the bag with one matched head shape, and a cast 455 stainless steel face does the work. Nothing adjusts here. The hosel is fixed and so is the weighting, which keeps the head simple and the address view clean. Project X supplies both stock shafts, the HZRDUS Smoke Red RDX and the Denali Red, in senior, regular and stiff, and it's stocked in both dexterities across all five lofts.

There's one sibling, the Lite, and it narrows everything: right-handed only, ladies flex, an undersize Lamkin grip and just the 22, 25 and 28 degree heads, all of it aimed at slower swings. Everyone else starts here, picks a loft or three, and stops thinking about long irons.
