Our take: Better players will nitpick the way an iron goes through the ground. If it sticks or impacts the turf in an inefficient manner, a hook is imminent. Based on tester feedback, golfers needn’t worry about this issue with X Forged CB. The subtle sole camber, in particular, received high marks from several eagle-eyed testers who claimed it produced the best turf interaction of any iron they tested. “It’s poetry when club meets golf ball,” said one tester.

“Mr. Efficient” OUR TAKE: Better players will nitpick the way an iron goes through the ground. If it sticks or impacts the ground in an inefficient manner, the hook is imminent. Based on tester feedback, golfers don’t need to worry about this issue with X Forged CB. The subtle sole camber, in particular, received high marks from several eagle-eyed testers who claimed it produced the best turf interaction of any iron they tested. “It’s poetry when club meets golf ball,” said one tester. THE DETAILS: The X Forged CB utilizes a multi-material construction, rather than a one-piece design, to help players achieve distance and consistency. In classic X Forged fashion, though, the new CB still comes in an appealing better-player shape with a head forged from 1025 carbon steel. A “Tour Tune” face delivers faster ball speeds and consistent spin, while the addition of tungsten in the toe section and back weight help dial in swing weight and impact consistency. Check out 150+ reviews from our gear experts in the ClubTest 2021 collection.
