New VG3 Irons Updates the Titleist Golf Family

Titleist USA worked together with Titleist Japan in their first ever joint venture to design the VG3 clubs for the Japanese market. They did not rush their efforts and took over a year just tinkering with design and testing, making sure it would satisfy not only the athlete golfer but also Japan's largest segment of golfers the average golfer.

 

One of the key features on the Titleist VG3 Irons is the variable weighting on the sole. VG3 stands for variable gravity design. On the driver there were 3 varying gravity design models varying between the 9 10 and 11* lofts. On the irons the same 3 tier design with the long irons featuring dual tungsten weighting embedded in both the toe and heel in the sole of iron while the mid irons feature a single tungsten weight in the center of the sole. The 3rd variable gravity design is the short irons where there is no tungsten at all.

 

This variable gravity design alters the trajectory by changing the CG on each iron. The dual tungsten on the long irons increases forgiveness and MOI while dropping the CG low for big carry and distance ball. Golf Clubs  The mid irons with a single tungsten weight allow for a higher ball to attack the green from a distance. The short irons with no weights have a higher CG point lowering the trajectory for a stable controlled shot and that touch around the greens.

 

With a thick top line, a bit wider bottom and decent amount of offset, the Titleist VG3 Irons provide a lower COG to make the club more forgiving. Besides, the deeper style pocket cavity, stronger lofts and variable weighting help you to find a more accurate location to reach a higher launch and fast shot. Specifically, the weights are placed in the 4, 5, 6 and 7 to manipulate forgivness and trajectory, and in the 8 to PW there is no tungsten weighting which helps raise the CG and lower the trajectory on those ‘must hit accurate' short irons.

 

The strongest points of the Titleist VG3 Irons are probably feel from the Endo forged S20C head and ease of use thanks to what Titleist calls a pre-worn sole or a sole already designed to produce more clean impact thanks to its ability to move through the turf. So the VG3 excels in looks, design, feel, distance and ease of use.

 

Additionally, Titleist offers custom orders for the VG3 including lie and length changes as well as custom shafts like PX, KBS Tour, DG, DG HL, DG SL, and even lighter weight steel like NS Pro 750GH Wraptech.
