Bridgestone Golf
The Bridgestone Golf Tour B JGR is a players distance iron released in 2020, designed for mid-handicappers (typically 8-18 HCP) who want the look and feel of a players' iron with added distance from a hollow or partially hollow construction. These irons bridge the gap between workability and forgiveness. The 2020 model's 7-iron is lofted at 30°, sitting in the moderate range that balances distance and gapping.

The Bridgestone Golf Tour B JGR features a hollow or semi-hollow construction that allows for a thinner, faster face and lower CG while preserving a players' address profile. Technology from the game-improvement category meets the aesthetic of players' irons. At impact it delivers energetic and direct, with a firmer feel typical of hollow-body constructions, often dampened with internal foam or polymer.
The Bridgestone Golf Tour B JGR's 7-iron is lofted at 30° - near-traditional - close to the classic 32-34° benchmark. For a golfer with an 85-95 mph swing speed, this projects to a 7-iron carry of approximately 150-160 yards. The 5-iron (23°) to 7-iron gap of 7° is well-gapped, which may create overlapping distance windows with similarly lofted fairway woods or hybrids. The pitching wedge at 43.5° provides a conventional loft window that pairs cleanly with a 50-52° gap wedge.
The Bridgestone Golf Tour B JGR (2020) 7-iron has a loft of 30°. This sits in a moderate range that provides a good balance of distance and traditional gapping.

The Bridgestone Golf Tour B JGR pitching wedge is 43.5°. A 50° gap wedge and 54° sand wedge would create clean separation. If you play a 60° lob wedge, a 46° and 52° pairing also works.
