The RAUNE series is a high-performance carbon shaft developed by Graphite Design with the theme of "aiming." The design philosophy, which started with wedges, has been applied to irons to achieve excellent directionality and feel.
Using a different lamination technology from the TOUR AD series, the material composition is optimized for each club number. This allows each club to exhibit the performance required for its role, supporting stable shots.
For long irons, the balance point closer to the grip improves swing through. The snap-back of the mid-to-tip section creates a high launch angle, making it easy to get the ball airborne.
For short irons, the flex of the grip is utilized while controlling the movement of the tip. This design provides high control performance and is suitable for delicate shots aimed at the pin.
＜PRGR Iron Strongest Combo＞
A "combo set of irons" simply refers to a setup where different models of irons are combined within a single set.
In the past, it was common to "match the same model from 5-iron to PW," but in recent years, even among tour pros,
"Long to mid irons for ease of use, short irons for emphasis on control"
has become the mainstream way of using them.
1. Why is the "combo set" popular?
There are two main reasons.
These are the "evolution of ball performance" and "changes in green conditions."
Increased difficulty of long irons
Modern golf balls have evolved in a direction that suppresses spin to improve distance performance.
As a result, with conventional muscle-back (01 series) long irons, even with a professional's head speed, it has become increasingly difficult for the ball to get airborne, and insufficient spin often makes it hard to stop on the green.
Role change from "distance" to "stopping"
For professionals, 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 highly forgiving models with thicker sole designs and hollow structures.
2. If building with PRGR? Recommended combo
PRGR's 01-02 series is actually a lineup that makes combo settings very easy to assemble.
Classic Athlete Combo: 01 × 02
・4-6 iron: 02 IRON (easy to hit with high trajectory)
・7-iron to PW: 01 IRON (emphasizes control and feel)
Points
Since the 7-iron of the 01 (loft 32°) is combined with the 6-iron of the 02 (28°),
The loft progression is natural, and there is little difference in feel, allowing for a comfortable combo setting.
