Hey, curious on the lofts for the TS3.5. Why are they so different than the TS1-IM, TE+, and TS3? The others are roughly 25 degrees, but the TS3.5 is 23 and adds a needed wedge?

Stronger lofts because we have a demand for them, and to compete with some of the OEM’s that producing stronger lofted irons. Fact is, distance in irons is mainly determined by loft and we needed to have a model that would not loose a comparison to another model in distance simply due to the loft. The cool thing about ours is that trajectories are still really good. We have the first full set samples and have hit them, a lot, and the performance exceeded our expectations.
One of the byproducts of having stronger lofts is that when yo get tot he short irons, you have to add a club to have the right progression into the Sand Wedges. This is nothing new. We and others have been doing it for years, ever since we went to lofts that through normal progressions made the PW’s 44,45 degrees. GAP wedges (GW) became what PW’s used to be. It’s all about how strong of loft you start with and where you end up when you get to the PW. That determines the additional wedges you need to add.
