What we say...
Tech:
A wide sole, undercut cavity back and thick top edge ensure maximum playability when shots are hit off centre. A black PVD finish and Rifle shaft mean the STR’s are a top spec iron but pitched at a very reasonable price.
Our verdict:
We’ve got to hand it to MD Golf the Superstrong’s have got some serious shelf appeal. They might not boast any of the springy face or speed pocket tech like some but they were more than capable of keeping up when it came to ball speed and carry distance. By posting a just above average ball speed and carry distance across all three testers and considering the sub £300 price point we reckon the STR’s are a decent value option. The heads got a decent sized cavity back, a reasonably wide and forgiving sole and yet the top edge doesn’t swell to obese levels either. Which for us all stacks up to a solid overall iron and performance.
Bottom line:
MD are not as widely available as they once were and they’re not quite as keen to offer custom fitting on their 2017 line up either. But that doesn’t takeaway from the STR being a decent proposition for club golfers, and especially those shopping on a budget.
