What's a PLAYERS iron? What's the definitionIs it because the ZX4s are not a players iron? The are distance or distance forgiveness irons?

What's a PLAYERS iron? What's the definition
Me too. Love my ZX5s
That's a solid list. Pretty wide range of effectiveness in there for the right players.I think this category is stockpiled with good options. ZX5 MKII is so well rounded it's hard to go against it. P790 is a staple, Paradym offers easy launch and distance, and T200 is so much improved from the previous line. The one I'm curious about for 2023 is Mizuno 245.
Because they're not players distance irons.It’s interesting that my mind went T150s or King tours.. but no one else’s.
Why are they not?? Show me your evidence..Because they're not players distance irons.
It’s a pretty wild category, which I kind of love. Great mix of hollow body and cavity designs. Heck look at Mizuno…923 Forged, Hot Metal Pro, and 245 all probably fall into players distance, and all different.That's a solid list. Pretty wide range of effectiveness in there for the right players.
Yeah the sheer range of shapes and sole widths, top lines, constructions, .. there's really something for everyone.It’s a pretty wild category, which I kind of love.

The Apex CF16 invented the category…The Caley Golf irons that have foam in them
Other than that, it has to be P790 right? I feel like they kind of invented this category
The T200 are not players distance irons. They are distance distance irons..They're not strong enough for any sane person to think they're a distance iron. On the scale of lofts they're decidedly on the player's side. In fact I believe Titleist calls the 150 a stronger player's iron. This is their player's distance iron..

Hmm… not sure I agree there…The Apex CF16 invented the category…
Way before that.The OG Forged Tec over the Apex CF16?

They were strong, but Cobra most likely invented it. Right @ddec
Amp Forged perhaps.The OG Forged Tec over the Apex CF16?
The Apex came out in 2014, but I think the addition of the Cup Face on the 2016 version took it to the next level.Amp Forged perhaps.
S2 Forged is another one that was strong lofted, forged player style shape that was slightly larger.
But I think @JB is going an even different direction.
Oddly enough another one I think of is Srixon Z star iron and Nike VRS Forged…which I think hit 1 year prior to Callaway Apex(but I didn’t check the dates).
I think the T150 is the players, players distance iron. Or maybe it is its own category. the Tour distance iron.. lolView attachment 9245308
Titleist says you're wrong. It's okay to admit you're wrong. Just breathe, and then SAY IT!!!!
