About the Tommy Armour Golf 845s Silver Scot
The Tommy Armour Golf 845s Silver Scot features a wide sole, deep undercut cavity, and high-MOI design that keeps ball speed consistent across the face. The low, deep CG promotes a high launch angle that helps the ball stop on greens. At impact it delivers solid and consistent — designed to feel similar whether you catch it slightly thin or slightly fat.
Loft Analysis
The Tommy Armour Golf 845s Silver Scot's 7-iron is lofted at 36° — weak — more lofted than most modern irons. For a golfer with an 85–95 mph swing speed, this projects to a 7-iron carry of approximately 129–139 yards. The 5-iron (28°) to 7-iron gap of 8° is spread across a wide range, which may create overlapping distance windows with similarly lofted fairway woods or hybrids. The pitching wedge at 48° is traditionally lofted, pairing naturally with a standard 52° gap wedge.
