Golf utility irons are increasing in popularity as golfers seek a lower-launching, more workable club that bridges the gap from irons to fairway woods in the bag. Early in 2023, we've identified seven golf utility irons that will do really well in fitting bays this year: PING iCrossover, Titleist T200, TaylorMade Stealth UDI, Srixon ZX MK II, Cobra KING Tec, Mizuno Pro Fli Hi, and Tour Edge C722.
In this video, 2nd Swing's Drew Mahowald and Kevin Kraft test all seven golf utility irons in a head-to-head test on Trackman and break down all of the data.

Another great video boys, driving irons today are so more forgiving and has been a great alternative for anyone who struggles with hitting hybrids. The FlyHigh made my bag late last season and I couldn’t have been more surprised or happier.

I am terrible with woods/hybrids off the ground so i got the MP Fli-Hi 3 iron and i love it. I am now thinking of replacing my 5wood with the MP 2 iron now.

I have the Tour Edge EXS 220 4 utility iron and it is a rocket. In the wind or on a links style course it is outstanding. Low rescue shots under trees, no problem. It is so hot off the face that it gets kind of addicting to hit. It is my 15th club and I switch it in and out of the bag depending on the course and conditions.

Just swapped out my Hybrid for a 4 Utility (U505), and it has changed my life. Wasn't even touching my Hybrid, as I was so inconsistent with it. Has completely changed my long game. Hoping to get the 2 Utility version in the next week.

I agree with Kevin that the Stealth UDI does look amazing at address - not too thin or too big...just right. I was originally deciding between Stealth UDI, Stealth DHY and U505 but ended up with the Stealth UDI due to the way it looked at address and performance was great as well so the decision was a no brainer for me.

I’m glad you went back to the Taylormade UDI now that you were fully warmed up. I feel the first club always gets the short end of the stick. Very impressed with the Tour Exotics though. Was not expecting that. I’m stopping by today to buy a driving iron and I think the PING and Tour Exotics are at the top of the list for sure.

I got the Stealth UDI 2 iron to replace my SIM 3 wood as the 3 wood was going way too far. The UDI came with a swing weight of D1.5 which meant I couldn't feel the club head. This gave me a distance varience of about 50 yards and a bit of a draw-hook bias. To fix this I added some lead tape to get it to D5 which matched my set, and as a result my consistancy and accuracy improved dramatically. Great club.

Ditched my 4H for a 4i. Just ditched my 3w for an iCrossover 2i; ( I play i230s) I'm not fixated on distance, I'm more concerned with keeping the ball IN PLAY! I also tried the UDI, but the Ping was much easier for me to hit, and it fit in nicely with my 230s.

One thing that is not mentioned in all these videos is the loft and lie of each one. Some brands have stronger or weaker lies than others giving them less or more spin and less or more distance.

Hybrids are so much more forgiving then these clubs. Plus the added height will help much more on those long par 3s! These are definitely better than stock 4-5 irons, but they can’t hold up against the versatility of a hybrid!

@Spacegose
@Spacegose Жыл бұрын
T200 is the utility iron equivalent of the old u500. It’s not actually the 2 iron to the T200 iron set. It’s a little bit chunkier and forgiving from the actual iron set. The U505 is like the U510. Just the chunkier titleist utility.
@SwingFit
@SwingFit Жыл бұрын
The T200 is a great choice for anyone who is turned off by the wider sole of the u505. It’s also a better option for anyone who struggles with more of a shallow delivery.

@@SwingFit I tested both the U505 and the T200 and it turned out that I'm horribly allergic to wide soles - utility, fairway, and hybrid. I ended up with a T200 2 iron, Tensei AV Raw White 100X. It's an absolute weapon and it's one of the more useful clubs in my bag. Love it.

The C722 isn’t going to hold a green, so I wouldn’t be seduced by its length (not hating on TE, I actually play one of their 5 woods and it’s arguably my favourite club in the bag). Just don’t think such a shallow descent angle is very functional

As a driving iron rather than an approach iron it could be good! I’d be looking at one of these more for that reason than as a par 3 or approach club.

If he went back and hit the stealth again it would be different. it was obvious his swing got looser and more timed and therefore better as the test went on. that's what happens when the guy swinging is a good player but not a pro. So I cannot take much away from this other than that all the clubs are fairly similar.
