The Takumi Japan Type T Iron is a muscle back designed for players who prioritize control and consistency,this set follows traditional forging methods with a focus on material quality and performance.
Design and Manufacturing
The Type T irons have a compact shape with a sole design that improves turf interaction. The leading and trailing edges are shaped to help maintain stability through impact. The back face features a black Teflon finish with laser etching and satin polishing. The design prioritizes a solid feel and predictable performance with a reasonable amount of forgiveness for a blade-style iron.
Forget your standard, run-of-the-mill irons. The Type T’s are built on three core principles: control, sharpness, and feel. Basically, they’re designed to make you feel like a golf ninja :)
- Control Freak? : Ever wanted to bend a shot around a tree or stick it close to the pin? These irons let you shape your shots with crazy precision. You’re the artist, and the ball’s your canvas.
- That “Butter Feel” You Crave: You know that satisfying feeling when you hit a shot pure? With these irons, it’s like that every time. The feedback is soft with the perfect feedback, so you know exactly how you struck the ball.
- Turf Interaction? The sole of these irons is designed to glide through the turf, so you get clean contact every time. No more digging or chunky shots.
- That Black Finish? Pure Eye Candy: The black Teflon finish, with laser etching and satin polishing, makes these irons look seriously badass.
- Forgiveness? Surprisingly Good: Muscle backs usually mean tiny sweet spots, but these are surprisingly forgiving. You still get that crisp feel, but you don’t have to be a robot to hit them well.
The Type T irons are suited for golfers who prefer a lower launch and greater control over ball flight. They are best for intermediate to advanced players who want a straightforward blade with consistent feedback and workability.
Struggling with high shots or inconsistent distances? The Type T’s can help you dial in your game.
