Video review: Wilson FG Tour irons

Our recent irons test caused quite a stir when the Wilson FG Tour irons came out as number one in the tour quality category ahead of others clubs that are more widely used on Tour.

But the fact that two Major winners in Padraig Harrington and Paul Lawrie as well as rising US star Ricky Barnes are using these clubs indicates that it may not have been as much a surprise as some would think.

The clubs are designed to look and feel like Tour-quality bladed clubs but also feature a shallow cavity cut into the clubhead for more forgiveness. Many top Tour players are now looking for a bit more forgiveness in the irons they use and Wilson have managed to hit the nail on the head with the FG Tours.

To see just how forgiving the FG Tours are, TG’s gear team Jonathan Greathead and David Connor took them out to the range to try them out. You can see how they got on in the video below.
