Review: Wilson Dynapower Forged irons

Wilson Dynapower Forged irons review

The revived Wilson Dynapower range now features a forged iron option and they’re going to appeal to a wide range of players. Here’s what you need to know about them.

The First Look

These complete the line-up of Wilson’s irons for 2024, and along with the Blades and the CBs, they are a cracking looking set.

Personally, I really enjoy the finish on Wilson irons, they give a very premium feel. Also, these have just enough offset to inspire confidence, without being overbearing.

While there’s a fairly larger topline, that’s to be expected in a club that offers lots of forgiveness. I’d love it if these featured the blank Wilson Staff emblem on the back of the irons. It’s not something that will impact performance, but I like that touch on the other irons.

The Tech

Here’s what Wilson say about the Dynapower Forged irons…

Constructed from 8620 carbon steel, the new Dynapower Forged irons have been meticulously crafted and rigorously tested using an advanced Wilson Golf AI technology system. This system incorporates a new Variable Face Thickness to ensure faster ball speeds across the clubface.

The Enhanced Power Hole Technology construction (applicable to 4-7 irons only) combines with Variable Face Thickness to deliver maximum distance. Meanwhile, a high MOI construction, a low centre of gravity and the redistribution of weight towards the toe result in more forgiving, higher-launching shots with impressive stopping power on the greens.

“The introduction of the new Dynapower Forged irons ensures that Wilson remains synonymous with high quality Forged clubs appealing to accomplished players,” said Jon Pergande, manager of Wilson Golf club innovation. “Following the successful revival of the iconic club franchise last year, it was imperative that we got this model right and we’re confident that golfers will find its shot-making results spectacular,” he added.

The bunkered Verdict

These are player’s distance irons, which is a pretty crowded market right now. However, these are going to appeal to a wide range of players, especially if you’re looking for something a bit different other than the big brands.

At comfortably under £1,000, they’re priced very sensibly, which will certainly be a factor for some players.

I left it to our resident video star James Tait to put the Dynapower Forged irons through their paces – and he’s come up with SIX (!) reasons why you should put them in your bag this season.
