Covid-19 may have put any purchasing ideas you had in March on hold. Now, it’s game on, and time to reassess your equipment needs. So, we’ve compiled the “Best in Show” from ClubTest 2020 to give you a refresher. These clubs are bold and beautiful, like the game itself. In this edition, we highlight Wilson’s Staff Model Blade irons.
Why We Love It
Wilson Staff Model Blade
For players who don’t just want a club that looks like a blade or (purportedly) plays like a blade but actually is a freakin’ blade, here you go. Designed with input from Brendan Steele and also played by reigning U.S. Open champion Gary Woodland, this milled 8620 carbon steel is a beauty. Just gorgeous.

Why I Play It
“These irons really drew me to Wilson when I signed with them. Turf interaction, feel and ball flight were fantastic from the start, but what really impressed me was how consistent the trajectory was throughout the bag. It doesn’t matter if it’s calm or windy, I know I’m going to see the window I need. It’s not something I ever have to worry about.” – 2019 U.S. Open champion Gary Woodland
