HCL Concord Golf
Irons/Hybrids
     
Shafts
All Irons are made with True Temper TT Lite steel shafts, or our proprietary graphite shafts, as
our base offering. For those seeking greater control, the True Temper Dynamic Gold shafts (R300, S300 & X100)
are available as an option.
Spine Align
We spine align all irons shafts so that the shaft energy releases
along the line of the player's swing.
MOI
All irons in a given set are moment of inertia (MOI) matched. This
means that each club in the set will swing the same.
Hybrids
Instead Of Long Irons
While Tour players, pro's and low handicappers, seem to prefer irons over woods, and some may only have a driver
and 3 wood in their bag, there is an increasing trend to more woods and fewer irons. More than
half of the inquiries we receive state that the longest iron the player hits well is the 5 iron.
However these same people are able to successfully handle lofted fairway woods in place of the long irons. Or
they find they can be better served with hybrid irons as an alternate to standard long irons,
which allow them to take a more sweeping action to get the ball airborne readily. With this in mind, the
clubs below are offered as sets that allow the player to buy fewer irons - only those he feels he can
use. This gives him the flexibilty to substitute lofted woods, or hybrids, for the standard
long irons, as he so desires.
Full Set Of
Clubs?
The idea
that the full set of 13 clubs must be matched, one to the other, is also receding. With the longer lengths in
vogue now, many players have drifted away from graphite shafts and are using steel shafts in their irons. At
the same time they are increasingly using graphite shafts in their woods. This works in practice when the
player properly selects shafts, steel in irons and graphite in woods, that fit his swing. Careful selection,
in fact, matches the clubs as needed.
Graphite vs. Steel Shafts
Graphite shafts will twist ( torque ) somewhat more than steel shafts, although this can be overcome in design.
However, the costs increase greatly and very low torque iron shafts tend to be beyond the pocket book of most
players. We do not offer such shafts. Using graphite shafts, one can make his clubs a little longer, since graphite
is much lighter than steel. This will produce more a little more distance, perhaps a little less accuracy, and
could be a worthwhile tradeoff, especially if the player can only swing his 5 iron 75 mph or less. Most players who
can hit their 5 iron more than 150 yards tend to use steel shafts.
- The steel shafts in this section come in flexes of "stiff", "firm" or "regular".
- The graphite shafts in this section come in flexes of "stiff", "regular", "seniors" and
"ladies".
