Introducing "Project X Red," a new model in the "Project X" series, trusted by top professionals worldwide, designed for players seeking higher launch angles and moderate spin rates. This series, favored by major champions including Rory McIlroy, now includes a shaft that enhances launch angle and improves stopping power on the green.
The main feature of Project X Red is its increased flexibility in the tip section. This allows for higher, spinnier trajectories compared to the traditional low-spin, low-launch Project X, significantly improving stopping power on the green.
Meanwhile, the butt and mid-sections maintain the same rigidity as previous models, preserving stability and control. It's resistant to wind and offers high swing consistency, making it suitable for a wide range of golfers.
For players who prioritize not only distance but also launch height and control, Project X Red is truly the "ideal evolution." It is currently the most anticipated steel shaft for golfers struggling with shaft selection.
An "iron combo set" is, simply put, a setup that combines different iron models within a single set.
In the past, it was common to "match the same model from 5-iron to PW," but in recent years, it has become common among tour pros to use
"forgiveness for long to mid-irons, and control for short irons."
1. Why are "combo sets" so 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 to reduce spin in order to increase distance performance.
As a result, with traditional muscle-back (01 series) long irons, even with a professional's head speed, the ball is often difficult to get airborne and lacks sufficient spin to stop on the green.
Role change from "distance" to "stopping"
For professionals, long irons (4-5 iron) are not just about gaining distance.
They are clubs for attacking the pin with a high trajectory and stopping the ball firmly on the green.
Therefore, for long to mid-irons,
there has been an increase in setups that combine highly forgiving models that feature thicker soles and hollow constructions.
2. What if you're building with PRGR? Recommended Combos
The PRGR 01-02 series is actually a very easy lineup to create combo setups with.
Classic Athlete Combo: 01 × 02
・4-6 iron: 02 IRON (easy to launch high and gain distance)
・7 iron-PW: 01 IRON (prioritizing control and feel)
Key Point
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 the difference in feel is minimal, allowing for a seamless combo setup.
