THPers were the first golfers out there to get their hands on these irons back in October at the THP Event called Staff Proto and today the day is here where they can finally talk about them. In all of my years of working with the great people at Wilson Staff, this is by far the most excited they are about iron technology and we think THPers should be too. Before we get to the reviews, here is a little bit of information about the new C200 irons.
From the Company
At the core of the C200 clubs is cutting-edge, proprietary, patent-pending FLX FaceTM Technology. This technology minimizes the contact points between the body and thin face. In fact, 76% of the thin face is actually free from the body of the iron, allowing for maximized face flex upon impact. These voids, known as Power Holes, are literal holes that go completely through the head and provide the space for the face to flex. They are then filled with a TE031 Urethane to provide outstanding feel for the game improvement player.
“We are extremely excited and proud to introduce the C200 irons and FLX Face Technology” said Michael Vrska, Global Director of Golf Innovation for Wilson Labs. “This iron is designed to provide incredible distance and the testing feedback from amateur players and our Wilson Advisory Staff pros have validated that.”
“We knew we wanted to create a completely new club – one with easy-to-understand, visible technology. The distance, forgiveness, and feel of the C200 irons exceeded even our high expectations. In our Wilson Labs play-testing, we are seeing results that far surpass what traditional irons currently offer,” added Vrska.
Specs
Grip - Wilson Staff Lamkin Crossline Black
Steel Shaft - KBS Tour 90
Graphite Shaft - Aldila Rogue
Flex Options - R, S (steel) / A, R, S (graphite)
Over the next few days, you are going to hear a ton about these irons from long term testing. Each THPer that was at the 2015 THP Event with Wilson Staff (called Staff Proto) in October received a set of these irons, fit to them and put them in play with the R&D team there and then took them home and have been playing them for the last 3 months ready for this action.
You will see their reviews here on the THP Forum as well as on social media where the hashtag #GenFLX is being used to discuss as well as @THPGolf and @WilsonGolf
Pay close attention to these reviews, because coming on the 5th is a THP Contest where you could win one of these brand new sets of C200s and join in with the THPers who are reviewing them already.
