Full set of ‘Tiger Slam’ clubs – GolfWRX

Designed to give golfers a versatile option in the gap between the fairway woods and long irons, Wilson today announced its new, hybrid-alternative, better-player-focused Staff Model RB utility in three loft offerings (18, 21, and 24 degrees).

Drawing on Wilson Advisory Staff member input (including Padraig Harrington, who is gaming the club), the RB is crafted with a thin topline and sleek look favored by better players. Engineers strategically distributed weight to the toe and sole of the club in this “mid-to-low” CG club for greater resistance to twisting and improved forgiveness.

Additionally, the high-strength C300 maraging steel-face club is hollow-bodied for greater ball speed and aerodynamics. Engineers strategically placed rib structures within the head for better stability, and thus performance, on mishits. Perhaps most interestingly to WRXers, Wilson mentions this improves acoustics on the hollow-bodied (and non-foam-filled) design.

“The professional athletes and elite amateurs with whom we tested all commented on its amazing  soft feel at impact and optimized ball flight,” said Bob Thurman, Global General Manager of Golf  and Vice President of Research & Development at Wilson. “We feel we created something special for  golfers in search of that easy-to-hit distance club.”
