Links golf is unpredictable due to ever changing weather, quirky bounces, and firm conditions. That being said, Scottie’s precision with his P·7TW irons was nothing short of spectacular.

The story of how he decided to put P·7TW irons in his bag is pretty compelling. He was playing P·730 irons during the final of the 2020 Masters alongside Tiger Woods. Inspired by Woods’ iron play, he wanted to try P·7TW irons for himself. After a testing session back home in Dallas gave him next-level playability without sacrificing distance, Scheffler put the P·7TW’s in the bag.

“What I noticed when I hit them at home was, I was able to hit different windows. So when I flighted it down, I could pitch it lower than I could the P·730,” he said. “When I wanted to hit it up, I could hit it higher and I saw more variability in the shots and then the distance control was basically the exact same. I saw the benefits of being able to flight it down and keep it flatter and not have that overspin with a little bit more variety.”
