The XXIO X is a game improvement iron released in 2020, designed for mid to high handicappers (typically 12-24 HCP) who benefit from a larger clubhead, wide sole, and high MOI design that reduces the penalty on mis-hits and promotes a higher, easier launch. The 2020 model's 7-iron is lofted at 29°, sitting in the moderate range that balances distance and gapping.

The XXIO X 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.
The XXIO X's 7-iron is lofted at 29° - moderately strong - slightly stronger than traditional lofts. For a golfer with an 85-95 mph swing speed, this projects to a 7-iron carry of approximately 154-164 yards. The 5-iron (21°) 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 43° provides a conventional loft window that pairs cleanly with a 50-52° gap wedge.
The XXIO X (2020) 7-iron has a loft of 29°. This sits in a moderate range that provides a good balance of distance and traditional gapping.
The XXIO X is a game improvement iron, designed for mid to high handicappers (typically 12-24 HCP). Handicaps roughly in the 12 to 24 range benefit most from this design.
The XXIO X pitching wedge is 43°. 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.
The XXIO X is designed to feel solid and consistent - designed to feel similar whether you catch it slightly thin or slightly fat. The consistent feel across the face is intentional - it builds confidence by making solid and slightly off-centre strikes feel similar.
