The G740 iron’s combination of distance, forgiveness and consistency make it a great choice for golfers who best fit into a super-game-improvement iron.
The wider sole width (+22% vs. G440), longer blade length (+3%) and thicker topline maximize perimeter weighting and help lower the CG in the G740 iron. This increases the MOI for more forgiveness, higher launch and ball-speed retention on mishits. The 5- to 6-iron has a ¾" length progression to help launch shots higher and farther.
The wider dual-camber sole of the G740 iron helps position the CG down and back, leading to consistent ball speeds and higher launch for the target golfer, who tends to strike the ball low on the face. This dual-camber design also gets the club into and out of the ground easier.
The G740 iron is engineered with a shallower face height and shorter hosel that saves weight, which allows for mass buildup in the back of the cavity to improve sound and feel while ensuring a high MOI. The thin, flexible face is supported by a new three-piece PurFlex cavity badge to help attenuate vibrations and substantially improve the impact experience.
The G740 iron set is comprised of 5-9, PW, U wedge, 50° and 56°. The grooves on all four wedges are precision milled for better short-game performance.
