FORGED FROM STEEL
The pitching wedge, 9-iron and 8-iron are forged blades made of 1025 steel. This mild steel offers an unbeatable feel and is carbon-enriched to enhance its mechanical properties.
From the 7-iron to 5-iron, a forged face made of 455 steel has been kept for a great feel. And here a moulded hollow-body clubhead made from 17-4PH steel has been chosen to provide the forgiveness and power of hollow technology.
ADVANCED CLUBS AT A GLANCE
An advanced club is also a matter of appearance and confidence. We have therefore gradually minimised the offset. It is almost absent from the short irons, whereas it can be found on the long irons without ever being obtrusive.
The same principle has been applied to the topline. A very fine topline has been marked onto the short irons. You can be sure to be holding a precision club so you can play the ball exactly as you imagined.
LOFT STORY
We calibrated the lofts of the 900 irons after hours of testing. This ensured that, regardless of the technology used, there are perfectly regular distance intervals between each club.
We have chosen to laser engrave the loft onto each clubhead. This means you know exactly what you’re playing with.
The 900 set is to be supplemented with the 900 wedges. They continue on seamlessly from the 44° 900 PW. You have the choice between 4 900 wedges: 48°, 52°, 56° and 58°.
A WORD FROM NICOLAS (handicap 3), PRODUCT MANAGER FOR THE 900 CLUBS
"The advanced club par excellence is the forged blade. With its sleek, elegant design and unbeatable feel. This is what we have chosen for our short irons, for maximum feel and feedback every time you take on the green. But the blade becomes harder to play with the medium irons, and an outright challenge with the long irons. So, starting from the 7-iron, a hollow clubhead has been chosen to ensure control, power and forgiveness. The COMBO set –
THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS.
4-IRON and 3-IRON AVAILABLE AS SINGLE CLUBS
3-iron and 4-iron are available as single clubs to supplement your set of 900 irons. They are fitted to the same shafts for perfect consistency.
4-IRON: Loft 22°
3-IRON: Loft 19°
We have designed ’utility irons’ to provide you with more confidence in the address position and offer greater distance and forgiveness for these harder shots.
The forged face made of 455 steel has been kept for a great feel and to ensure continuity with the 900 set. The moulded hollow head is made from 17-4PH steel.
AVAILABLE IN 2 SHAFT LENGTHS
We have defined 2 lengths of club. Do not hesitate to watch the online video or visit a store to select the size that suits your game.
- Size 1 if your hand/ground distance is less than 78.5cm
- Size 2 if your hand/ground distance is more than 78.5cm
CLUBS THAT REFLECT YOUR SWING SPEED
3 shafts for 3 speeds. For each speed, we selected the shaft that will provide the best distance/accuracy ratio.
We carried out this study with around one hundred golfers, which allowed us to categorise golfers’ swings into 3 groups: slow, mid, and high speed.
HOW TO FIND OUT WHICH SWING SPEED YOU HAVE?
Firstly, a simple question: you’re on the fairway, just under 135 metres from the flag – which club do you choose?
- 5-iron, hybrid, wood: you have a LOW SWING SPEED (< 70 mph for 7-iron)
- 6-iron or 7-iron: you have a MEDIUM SWING SPEED (between 71 mph and 82 mph for 7-iron)
- 8-iron or 9-iron: you have a HIGH SWING SPEED (> 82 mph for 7-iron)
Do not hesitate to visit a store to use the measurement tools available to accurately define your swing speed with our golf advisers.
