Wilson has so many solid club selections, there irons and golf balls are so underrated. Thank you Matt for not overlooking such an important brand in the golfing marketplace. Could you test some of Wilson golf balls for content? Cheers!
I have the wilson D9 forged irons, I always struggled with my cobra ltdx irons but since getting these my golf has improved a fair bit, I had zero birdies last year and was strugglibg to break 100, i got my wilson irons in november on a black friday deal and this year I've broke 90 twice already and have 5 birdies on the board already, been playing my best golf since changing my irons.
@@FISHGEEK007 didn't say they was, I struggled with the strong lofted LTDX irons, although the D9 forged are strong lofted they are nothing like the ltdx irons, I just find the D9 forged irons easier to get the ball in the air and get a faster ball speed and actually hit them further then the Ltdx irons I had and the ball actually stops on the green with my D9 forged irons, they've work amazing for me and have definitely improved my game drastically.
I play the Staff Model CB’s and love them, Wilson have been in the wilderness for a while but it feels like they are making a comeback in a big way given their history.
I've got the dynapower 3 wood and it's honestly my favourite club in the bag. Looks great, easy to hit and travels. Glad to see the brand getting some more love
Hi Matt I'm a twenty handicap using the old Nike Slingshot, I got abused for them being illegal as they are pre 2010. I purchased the Dynapower off this review. Thank you so much for your testing and review. 3 weeks later I've dropped 2 shots and absolutely loving my game. Cheers Matt loving my golf. And also now using the triad ball. If your ever in Melbourne mate, I owe you.
Wilson clubs are underrated, who cares about how they look when you're enjoying your golf more? I use Wilson launchpad irons and they're ugly as hell, but I've played my best golf ever in years.
Bingo!!!! Ego aside and improving your experience for it!! The bottom line should be the bottom line!! Iam a 9 hdcp and needed a little more so I hit Cobra Rad Speed irons (hate the name) in 4-6 iron and then Ping I210s 7-PW and its helped me massively and I don't care what anyone thinks
@davewylie654 It's funny because my mates who I play with will often ask to use a certain club of mine instead of their thousand pound plus irons 🤣. One friend has added 4 and a 5 hybrid iron in his bag now.
I’ve been using D7 irons for the last couple of years, when you’re hitting them well, they’re lovely. Look good as well. I also love the duo soft + balls great for the price.
Great review, Wilson deserves more love. Would like to see reviews of their players clubs from this year as well. 4K vids still needed, literally every other golf channel does their videos in 4K
I use the Cleveland hi bore turbos, I couldn't care less how a club looks (maybe because I'm so ugly myself) I play off official handicap of 5 and only care how they perform which is brilliantly. I have no hesitation in recommending Hi bores to any level of golfer besides maybe scratch and pros.
Just went for a custom fitting and ended up choosing these. Couldn’t believe the distance!!! Possibly too far! But looking forward to playing with them. Great video!
Great review Matt. As a Wilson Staff iron player, I’ve recognised their quality and value for years. So I appreciate you shining a light on their impressive range. I play the C300 Forged irons from a few years ago, and they are amazing. Look forward to seeing your reviews of the blade, CB and Dynapwr Forged also mate. Cheers 👍
I play the D7 Forged, again their great clubs, in my opinion and probably because of my age, I've always thought of Wilson staff as one of the so called big brands, I started playing golf at 12 in 1984, Wilson were the club's all the scratch handicaps were playing at that time, one of the guys in my normal Sunday group had the staff goose necks, they were things of beauty
Got them 5-GW MCA Tensei Silver Graphite - very good, superb value for money. Wilson AI Fit works.... I think they look very good, some might say too glossy but I like the overall look. Game improvement irons yes, but don't shout beginner clubs? Great Feel especially with Tensei Shafts. Very good build quality. Launch lower in the 5-7 and took some getting used to, but now overall superb. 5 Iron is 21° like an old school 3 iron but the length of a 4 iron?! but works. All Clubs 1 to 1.5 longer. Caused some issues with gapping in the wedges... £699 all in les than £100 per club in Graphite too! That good I invested in the 4 Hybrid!
I learned on Wilson Staff fat shaft irons andbthey were some of the best irons ive ever used even today. If you get a chance,try them. Yes they are old but highly worth a try
Nice video! I’m looking at the Wilson and ping g430 irons. The problem with the ping is that the PW is 40 degrees so I’d also need to buy a gap wedge to bridge to my 50 degree so even more £££. Trying out the Wilson next week!
Three things. First: I actually currently play (very old) Wilson Staff irons. Great clubs. Just old. Need updating! Second: Great video. Always love your reviews. And third: I'm more than a little jealous of the amazing collection of clubs lined up behind you in this video. :) :)
I have last years dynapowers. They are exceptional value and very forgiving. They look and feel great and I preferred these to pings. I also tested callaway apex irons which ran the Wilson’s close. Did come down to cost in the end and thought the Wilson’s were great value
Matt thanks for an honest review. Well appreciate for us high handicapper and the savings over is over the top. But how do the other high handicapper clubs compare?
A great review Matt and these Wilson Dynapower irons certainly look the goods. If I may ask a serious question, do you lose any distance when you use these irons compared to the clubs you have in your bag or is it the ability to shape your shots that decides what you choose?
I use G400’s not changing them anytime soon. I know low handicap players who use G series. If I was looking for new irons, I’d consider Wilson. Very underrated despite having a great history.
Great review Matt the most underrated brand in golf. Wilson need to get more demo days to show golfers what they are missing in performance and the money they are going to save.
Looks like Wilson did a good job on feel and blade length, not too lumpy, but the offset is killing me. Also, loft wise I would have to go 6-GW because they are lofted so strongly. Good value for money that's for sure.
How do they compare to the previous 'most forgiving irons' the Launchpad 2022? They do look a little less clunky. Been pondering picking up a second hand set for a while and price does keep going down.
It’s good to see Wilson making a comeback,when I was a youngster in the 70’s it was the go to brand. Will you be doing a review on the same irons aimed at the lower handicap player?
Sub 70 639 CB look amazing really forgiving but still give you plenty playability shaft and grip options plus forged and even better price point than Wilson surely a contender in this category.
Also, the great thing about these Wilsons is you get these clubs, and you get better. You can get the Dynapower forged and still not break the bank, but sticking with a similar but better iron.
hi Matt good video however picking up on what you said" irons not made for me", It would be nice to see a midhandicaper test them with you so its a true reflection,. after all you can hit anything and it would look good. cheers
In the 80’s Wilson won most of the majors, players like Faldo, Bernard Langer, Payne Stewart, John Daley, they just drifted into the wilderness for a while, they are certainly back with great clubs
Wilson makes great stuff but iam going to argue your assessment that they look less "clunky" maybe at address but those jumbo wide soles when in the bag are definitely "clunky". My buddy plays a set of G410s and they look great in the bag and out of it. I love Wilson stuff but i hit those next to G430s , Taylormade QI10s and the Cobra Darkspeed GIs and to me they were not as pleasing numbers wise or looks wise although i love the shiny "chrome" look. I actually had the Mizuno 921 Hot Metals as the best of the GI irons out now
My first clubs were Ping Zing 2 so you know that looks aren’t high on my list of attributes a club must have. 😂 In fact, I wish club reviews saved comments about looks until after discussing performance. Maybe because I didn’t grow up as a country clubber (started to play when I was 40), I have no preconceptions about how clubs (or balls) should look - all I care about is how well it works.
Wilson is coming back!!!! New DynaPower just released isn’t horrible looking. I play a CB/Blade combo but this years irons from single digits handicap to mid to high are best in a decade. Don’t sleep on their ball either!
Absolutely agree with you all the way. These are exceptional clubs, and Wilson has just released a new 2024 Dynapower FORGED set. They look simply incredible, could we see a video of you testing them against some of the other Forged sets that are significantly more money? Wilson does not get the credit that they deserve, they are good as anything else out there…. And in some cases maybe, better. Thank you for doing this review.
I think the paradyme irons are the most forgiving. I only lose 5-7 yards on off center hits. Plus I hardly ever lose any balls now. I'm a 95-99 shooter. Want to break 95 this year.
Cracking clubs only downside to the Wilson are resale value where Ping hold a better value, however if you pick the Wilsons up for a decent price who cares.
Amazon are ripping people off on these clubs and many other Wilson Iron Sets by advertising a full set but then only send one club out for delivery. I received a 5i. After a few arguments I gave up and took my refund. Lots of reviews with the same issue across Amazon.
The Taylormade QI irons are hands down the best ones out for 2024. I played with Ping irons for years. Taylormade did something right with these. The new Wilsons are good, but they do not compete with Taylormade
Just like my D7s, it's not a good design with the rubber-filled slits underneath as many of them felt out and my clubs now make an annoying "Swooooching" sound, on top of gathering dirt and grass. And Wilson has no idea/does nothing to fix this problem.
I have to disagree, I am a former ping g430 player, my son is a Wilson Dynapower player so I am very familiar with the product and mizuno jpx 925 is more forgiving than both the ping and Wilson clubs.
a bit wider sole in think! sole looks also a bit longer, but i doubt it.! I have mine D9:s by my desk here! topline of the Dynapwrs also is maybe a bit rounded compared to D9, which has "boxies" top line. Might be that overall look is just better finished, which gives asumption that they are smaller! not sure even i have them here! @@paulmcgee1867
Power hole? Who honestly approved that. 🤦🏻 Regardless, I get looks have an impact on which clubs people choose(right or wrong) and those look pretty good. Nothing wrong with mid-high hcp getting a little confidence in themselves through an eye pleasing iron on top of helping get more great shots per round. 👍🏼
Why don't club pros like yourself play with more forgiving clubs, I watch most of your TH-cam golfers and consistently miss hit you "players" irons....
That thing is huge, not sure what you're talking about. Must be paid by wilson. Its like the callaway cb wedge my dad has and hes a 18 handicap. Use what you need but don't say they are something they arent.
People who don't know about golf don't know about Wilson clubs, they've always been good, one of the major manufacturers that are still around, back in the day it was Wilson, mcgregor, Ben hogan that were the big names, Wilson have stood the test of time

Well the D9 Forged are definitely not SGI irons though.

Just put these in the bag this past Christmas and love them. They make the game much easier for sure!
I play the Staff Model CB’s and love them, Wilson have been in the wilderness for a while but it feels like they are making a comeback in a big way given their history.
Staff CBs and Staff Blades are not only stunning but really good
I've got the dynapower 3 wood and it's honestly my favourite club in the bag. Looks great, easy to hit and travels. Glad to see the brand getting some more love
Hi Matt
I'm a twenty handicap using the old Nike Slingshot, I got abused for them being illegal as they are pre 2010.
I purchased the Dynapower off this review. Thank you so much for your testing and review.
3 weeks later I've dropped 2 shots and absolutely loving my game.
Cheers Matt loving my golf.
And also now using the triad ball.
If your ever in Melbourne mate, I owe you.
Wilson clubs are underrated, who cares about how they look when you're enjoying your golf more? I use Wilson launchpad irons and they're ugly as hell, but I've played my best golf ever in years.
Interesting take, many of Wilson's irons are beautiful
Bingo!!!! Ego aside and improving your experience for it!! The bottom line should be the bottom line!! Iam a 9 hdcp and needed a little more so I hit Cobra Rad Speed irons (hate the name) in 4-6 iron and then Ping I210s 7-PW and its helped me massively and I don't care what anyone thinks
@jackvliet he is correct the Launchpads are ugly as hell BUT they work!!
@davewylie654 It's funny because my mates who I play with will often ask to use a certain club of mine instead of their thousand pound plus irons 🤣. One friend has added 4 and a 5 hybrid iron in his bag now.
I’ve been playing D100’s since they came out no need for change!
Just bought a set of these a few weeks back and they have performed very well
I’ve been using D7 irons for the last couple of years, when you’re hitting them well, they’re lovely. Look good as well. I also love the duo soft + balls great for the price.

Just ordered one of these to replace a mizuno I broke. Could care less about the look can’t wait to try it
Nice one mate great hcap keep at it too much snobbery in golf
Just went for a custom fitting and ended up choosing these. Couldn’t believe the distance!!! Possibly too far! But looking forward to playing with them. Great video!
Great review Matthew! More like this one please!
Just got these and easily added 15 yds to each club. Hitting higher, further, and easier. Thanks for the review.
Great review Matt. As a Wilson Staff iron player, I’ve recognised their quality and value for years. So I appreciate you shining a light on their impressive range.

Got them 5-GW MCA Tensei Silver Graphite - very good, superb value for money.
Wilson AI Fit works....
I think they look very good, some might say too glossy but I like the overall look.
Game improvement irons yes, but don't shout beginner clubs?
Great Feel especially with Tensei Shafts.
Very good build quality.
Launch lower in the 5-7 and took some getting used to, but now overall superb.
5 Iron is 21° like an old school 3 iron but the length of a 4 iron?! but works. All Clubs 1 to 1.5 longer.
Caused some issues with gapping in the wedges...
£699 all in les than £100 per club in Graphite too!
That good I invested in the 4 Hybrid!

Recently reviewed these myself, great irons and even look pretty nice too. Well worth a try for sure

Great review. In your opinion Matt. Do you like better the q10 irons or stealth iron or the Pxg gen 5 or gen 6 irons
I got the d7s and they are bit big but do a decent job.
Another Wilson D9 user here. Love them.
Matt. What shaft would you recommend / or what does Wilson offer in these clubs for a senior golfer. A soft flex. Please advise.
Matt thanks for an honest review. Well appreciate for us high handicapper and the savings over is over the top. But how do the other high handicapper clubs compare?
They look good, had my eyes on the D9 forged, and now they'll be on for a vastly reduced price.
If you can find them
Matt I'm a 6.7 and I use srixon zx4 irons mate ...all I say is fantastic mate they do everything I need them too
A great review Matt and these Wilson Dynapower irons certainly look the goods.
If I may ask a serious question, do you lose any distance when you use these irons compared to the clubs you have in your bag or is it the ability to shape your shots that decides what you choose?
Would you recommend the Wilson irons or the takomo 101s?
Im wondering the same thing
Had D7s now D9s, Wilson make great irons at much cheaper prices than vast majority of manufacturers, expect I'll get these at some point in future
I use G400’s not changing them anytime soon. I know low handicap players who use G series. If I was looking for new irons, I’d consider Wilson. Very underrated despite having a great history.
Wilson has such a great range of irons and I’am looking forward to seeing the forged version soon. Just got the d7 forged at a great price

My old Callaway Diablo ‘Edge’ irons are ridiculously forgiving. Hit the ground 3 feet behind the ball and up she goes. Almost.
Another Wilson fan here Matt , interested to hear more about the dynapower hybrid and fairway woods , will there be a review ?
Enjoying the content !
Wilson make excellent irons. I had the Ci7 irons and they were great.
Brilliant review Matt, I find Wilsons are massively underrated.
hi Matt good video however picking up on what you said" irons not made for me", It would be nice to see a midhandicaper test them with you so its a true reflection,. after all you can hit anything and it would look good. cheers
I had the D9's and did not like them are they a big improvement ?
Got these on order. Should I of got the gap wedge as well?
Love my wilson deep red tour irons love the forgiveness and feel of them
In the 80’s Wilson won most of the majors, players like Faldo, Bernard Langer, Payne Stewart, John Daley, they just drifted into the wilderness for a while, they are certainly back with great clubs
Does anyone know where you can get fitted for Wilson irons? I'd like to get fitted for the D9 forged.
I love my Wilson Launchpads. So easy to hit ball high.
What do you class as mid to high handicapper. I'm a 12.1 am I mid or high
Wilson makes great stuff but iam going to argue your assessment that they look less "clunky" maybe at address but those jumbo wide soles when in the bag are definitely "clunky".

Audio sounds a lot different in this video. Not necessarily in a bad way, perhaps I'm hearing your voice clearer than usual. Cheers again Matt.
Sweetspot is moved towards the toe: ”that was a toe strike, obviously these are not made for me”😂😂😂
May have to look into these irons I need new ones but everything is just so expensive
I have the Ping G425's and from the camera angle these look more chunky, the topline looks huge.. I don't see that with the 425's.
I’ve been using these for just under 12 months, they’re a great iron at an incredible price point. Very long and forgiving.
Love mine!
Put Miura PI-401's in the bag last season. Great clubs & they're so beautiful they almost make you faint. Affordable? Not so much.
Cracking clubs only downside to the Wilson are resale value where Ping hold a better value, however if you pick the Wilsons up for a decent price who cares.
Wilson make some great clubs so underrated

Mizuno 245 blow them out the water
@weeforbes I hit them. Not for me, they didn't.
Wilson blades and CBS are the best looking irons about
Just like my D7s, it's not a good design with the rubber-filled slits underneath as many of them felt out and my clubs now make an annoying "Swooooching" sound, on top of gathering dirt and grass. And Wilson has no idea/does nothing to fix this problem.
Mizuno irons the best by a country mile
Looks should be the very least thing that one should worry about…. Idk if it looks like a 2x4 at the end of a stick as long as I can hit it good 😂
I have to disagree, I am a former ping g430 player, my son is a Wilson Dynapower player so I am very familiar with the product and mizuno jpx 925 is more forgiving than both the ping and Wilson clubs.
it looks sleeker than D9. I guess its D9:s follow up. But with brand "new technolgy"
Loved the D9 look but don't know how chunky they were
a bit wider sole in think! sole looks also a bit longer, but i doubt it.! I have mine D9:s by my desk here! topline of the Dynapwrs also is maybe a bit rounded compared to D9, which has "boxies" top line.

Why don't club pros like yourself play with more forgiving clubs, I watch most of your TH-cam golfers and consistently miss hit you "players" irons....

Those Wilson Irion are not durable at all. Had them for 4 months looked 5 years old after those months.
How about bringing in a 25 handicap player and we will see how they hit these clubs…
Brit promoting Wilson randomly. Who would of thought.
While I agree with all your points. This was definitely a paid ad by Wilson. Be more transparent Matthew.
I can not agree Matt, as I have never used one before.
Way too much emphasis on looks.
Ping are not gonna like you Matt, i hope wilson paid you enough for this video mate lol
People who don't know about golf don't know about Wilson clubs, they've always been good, one of the major manufacturers that are still around, back in the day it was Wilson, mcgregor, Ben hogan that were the big names, Wilson have stood the test of time
If those Wilson irons had the word "PING" on it they would sell more. 😅 People buy the names for social status.
