Introducing the new i530 iron, meticulously designed for players who seek a compact blade-style head while aiming to achieve greater distance on the golf course. This innovative club is engineered to help lower your scores by enabling the ball to launch higher and travel farther.
The i530 boasts a sleek, premium appearance, thanks in part to an advanced machining technique that has thinned the back wall of its hollow-body structure, optimising weight distribution for enhanced forgiveness and tighter dispersion. For those who appreciate the artistry of a blade, the club features a thin top line, a narrow sole, and a shallow face height.
Experience remarkable distance gains from several innovative design elements, including an internal weight pad that facilitates a deeper, thinner face-to-sole transition. This feature ensures greater face flexing and effectively lowers the centre of gravity (CG), resulting in enhanced ball speed.
The integrated arcing sole cascade further contributes to increased distance by accentuating the bending of the face upon impact. With the lower CG and distance-optimised lofts, players can expect to achieve approximately three additional yards alongside a high maximum height that ensures exceptional green-holding capabilities. Additionally, the CG aligns seamlessly with the impact area, while a specially formulated polymer enhances both feel and sound, while maximising face bending and ball speed. The precision-milled MicroMax grooves deliver consistent launch and spin, regardless of the playing conditions.
- Forged, highly flexible maraging steel C300 face welded to a 17-4 stainless steel hollow body.
- Compact, blade-style head featuring a thin top line, narrow sole, and shallow face.
- Internal weight pad for a deeper, thinner face-to-sole transition, promoting increased face flexing.
- Arcing sole cascade efficiently distributes stresses during impact to further accentuate face bending.
- Lower CG and distance-optimised lofts for approximately three more yards.
- MicroMax grooves ensure consistent launch and spin in all conditions.
- Polymer material improves feel and sound.
- Tungsten toe screw and shaft tip weights provide swing weight fine tuning.

- These are design specifications that may vary due to manufacturing tolerances.
- Lie angle is based on Black Colour Code at standard length.
- Power Spec Loft is a fitting option for those seeking to enhance their iron distance or decrease spin to achieve a desired trajectory window. This custom-designed loft configuration provides a calculated power boost without compromising the integrity of the club's design.
- Retro Spec Loft caters to players prioritising precision and higher trajectory for increased stopping power over overall distance. This loft configuration offers functional distance gaps, ideal for a 3-wedge setup or more classic loft specifications.
- Club bounce angles may vary slightly with non-standard loft specifications.
- Standard swingweights for graphite-shafted clubs are typically 2 to 3 points lighter than specified, contingent on shaft flex.
- Achievable swingweights depend on the chosen shaft, length, and grip combinations.
- Available in both left and right-handed models.
