 Right, back in that is, you know what, it's nice to be on a golf course even though I'm just filming on it. For what is a long term project, something I'm doing with Wallacy Golf Club at the moment and really interesting, more on that in the future, but for now, this is about how, well, it's a simple one. Have you ever wondered what is the longest 7-iron that is out there right now? I know that I have and that's why I'm doing the video, because don't forget, everybody is looking for the same thing from their golf clubs and some people do need a better help and the stronger lofted irons have given them that help, that bit of extra yardage and extra distance. What we're going to find out today is, is it all about loft, so is the strongest lofted going to be the one that goes the furthest, or is it going to be a combination of a number of factors that get that ball out there and end up being the longest? There's only one way to find out. We've got this car, get ourselves off to four golf, go on it some golf balls and find out what is the longest 7-iron that is out there right now? We'll soon find out. Right, so as I said in the intro, let's not forget, this is all a bit of fun, but I'm certainly interested to find out what this is and in theory, the strongest lofted club is going to be the longest if everything is based on loft, equates to distance. But will that be the case? We've got six irons that we're going to be looking at and let's put these in some kind of order. The strongest lofted is the Titlist T400, incredibly at 26 degrees. We've then got the Maverick iron, 27 degrees, and then you look at the Simmax, 28.5. The Big Bertha B21 on the hot melt at 29, and the G710 from Ping is 29.5 degrees, so if we put them in sort of a descending order, the weakest lofted being the G710 should be the shortest. And like I said, up there at the top end will be the Titlist T400. But that's on the assumption that everything is based on loft, equates to distance. But will it be? No, it wasn't. So comments down below about my shoes. Jimmy doesn't like them. Just coming here for two minutes just to give me a bit of abuse. What would be your opinion? What is the strongest, what is the thirdest iron out of this batch that I've got? Which reckon is going to be the furthest? No, I'm asking you. You. You first of all. You don't know. You don't know anything. No, but what do you think? Any opinions? T400 is in there? Yeah, yeah. No, no, I don't know. Yeah, I'm getting a wall outside. I'm going to hit that. I haven't got the data yet. Data's coming next. I'm waiting for the bait. Yeah. I've seen as you double booked it. One thing that has interested me a great deal is that I know we're all talking about what is the longest iron out there, but there's a bit of an interesting one that it has thrown up, putting those heads together, laid out on the floor, looking at them directly from above. There is a noticeable difference in profile, and you've got the likes of the Maverick, which is fairly thick and as is the B21. But then it certainly slims down towards that the Ping G710 was thinner than what I expected it to be in terms of its profile. And as we already know, so is that GPX921 hot metal, which is the club I'm using right now. So even though you might want a bit of distance in your irons, you still now can get it in terms of that power spec loft, but in a smaller, more compact profile and certainly what I'd have expected to see it address. Right, I'm going to kick things off and start collecting data with the Maverick. One of the chunkier irons are going to make me way down to the bottom end of that G710 and also the GPX, but before we go any further, don't forget, click down below in that comments section, which one do you think is going to go the furthest.

Anyway, let's get things going. We're warmed up. That's a decent start with a Maverick. I fell with this one. We needed a good warm-up. This is all about swinging it as hard as I can, finding just how far we can get these seven irons out there. Don't forget, all a bit of fun. Get your comments down below, which one is the longest. Yeah, there's one thing I will say is that where we are right now with irons of this type compared to we were maybe even just two years ago is a huge difference. People that sort of suggest that technology hasn't moved on and I'm not referring to about loft or how far a ball goes or all those different things. It's just about just a feel for one thing straight away. We've got five irons here that they perform so well across the board. And like I said, you would have picked up these type of clubs maybe a year or two ago and there were sacrifices that you had to make. The only sacrifice I can see and make from going to these, whether you like the loft thing or not, that's a different story. But the only sacrifice is really the profile of the club. Everything else is very much positive on how these things perform. Yes, they help with distance, but they also help with the way the ball launches. And even so much as how this ball is spinning in terms of control is also a noticeable difference. Right, so a video that started off as quite a bit of fun. Yes, it was. Finding the longest seven iron is in many ways neither in or there, but it was an interesting thing to do. And while I learn a lot along the way, as I always do with this testing, I always say drive all data is kind of can be a little bit tedious, but the end of the day, it tells a tale. And it certainly did in its longest seven iron test. If you want to know what the longest seven iron was on the test, it was. And I'm going to read from the screen. It was the Maverick and it was a Maverick. And the longest I recorded was 182.6 yards. Carry 5000 touching on spin. It was only 81.9 clubbed speed and that's relative in a minute. One 26 ball speed launch at 13.5, descent angle up 42.3. There was another ball in there as well that you've seen on screen, which is not too dissimilar, but with a slightly better land angle. Now, and I say slightly better on why this has become an interesting test rather than just about what was the longest. First of all, it once again dispelled this idea that the longest, the strongest lost would be the longest. The T400 didn't perform as you would have expected it to. And what I want to do is rather than go through each individual set of numbers, I'm going to put them right at the very end. And for those of you are interested in data, then it is worthwhile read and analyze them. But obviously this video would literally go on forever if I went through every piece of data. But what you will see is this. Yes, like I said, the strongest lofted didn't necessarily produce the longest carry. But what they all did extremely well and the fascinating bit for me was that overall performance was really good from all these clubs. As I said again in the video, people need different things. Some people need a help with distance, with ball speed, with launch angle. These clubs did, everyone did exactly that. But they all did it with great spin number, good launch angle, good descent angle, and all those things are very much relevant. And peak height again, I mean, some of these things were coming down out the clouds. So they very much performed like, both like characteristics of what I would see from a 7-iron, albeit that longer carry distance. But like I said, for a lot of people that will be a help. But the other interesting thing was again, just on that looks factor, they've improved so much this kind of club. You'd have maybe, you know, you were looking at the real sort of chunky irons to get this kind of performance out of what is classed as I suppose a super game improvement iron. But everything's been, you know, there's a more streamlined approach in that G710, which again, that thinner top line, there's something in there for everybody. And I think again, the lesson learned is this. Don't dismiss clubs because of loft. Don't dismiss clubs because of a category that they've put into. Sometimes by the manufacturer as well, I think it's a, you know, a fatal mistake on their part. Lots of us would benefit from these type of irons where there's loads of help, but we're not giving up lots in terms of the performance. Yes, there's drop offs, the spin num is not as good as what you would get in a 34 degree seven iron. Obviously it's not, but those launch angles are still good. The drop off in spin, how much is it really gonna impact on your performance when you play golf? Would you benefit more from the extra help in distance, from the extra help in launch than your perhaps would in that little bit of a drop off in a spin number? There the questions I'd be asking myself when I was choosing my set of irons that were relative to me. But anyway, that's it. Like I said, in the main, a bit of fun just to find out what the longest seven iron was out there, but wait till the end, look through that data, and you'll see there was a fair bit more learned through this test along the way.
