The TRUE TEMPER RIFLE PROJECT X is an iron shaft designed with an optimal taper angle calculated to maximize energy transfer for each club number. This precision design performance has been proven effective by many PGA Tour winners. By varying the taper angle of the shaft for each club number, it optimizes energy transfer to the ball, providing players with superior performance.
Focused on control performance, it adopts a "mid-kick point" design and is ideal as a heavy shaft for professional golfers and top amateurs. It is a high-performance shaft that can meet a wide range of needs, from professional precision shots to hard hitters.
Recommended swing speeds are as follows:
7.0 flex: 50m/s～
6.5 flex: 48～54m/s
6.0 flex: 46～52m/s
5.5 flex: 43～50m/s
5.0 flex: 40～47m/s
This shaft is ideal for professional and top amateur golfers as it maximizes energy transfer and provides excellent control and performance.
"Iron combo set" simply means combining different models of irons within one set.
In the past, it was common to "have the same model from 5-iron to PW," but in recent years, among tour pros,
"Long to mid irons for forgiveness, short irons for control"
has become the mainstream way of using them.
1. Why are "combo sets" popular?
There are two main reasons.
They are "evolution of ball performance" and "changes in green conditions".
Increased difficulty of long irons
Modern golf balls have evolved to suppress spin to increase flight distance.
As a result, with conventional muscle-back (01 series) long irons, even with a professional's head speed, it is difficult for the ball to get airborne, and there are increasing cases where there is insufficient spin, making it difficult to stop the ball on the green.
Change of role from "driving" to "stopping"
For pros, long irons (4-5 iron) are not just clubs for gaining distance.
They are clubs for aiming at the pin with a high trajectory and stopping the ball firmly on the green.
Therefore, for long to mid irons,
There is an increasing trend to combine forgiving models that adopt thicker sole designs and hollow structures.
2. If you're building with PRGR? Recommended combo
PRGR's 01-02 series is actually a very easy lineup to combine in a combo setting.
Royal Road Athlete Combo: 01 × 02
・4-6 iron: 02 IRON (easy to hit with a high trajectory)
・7-iron to PW: 01 IRON (emphasis on control and feel)
Points
Since the 7-iron of 01 (loft 32°) is combined with the 6-iron of 02 (28°),
The loft progression is natural, and there is little difference in feel, making for a comfortable combo setting.
