Give a chance to Titleist Ap2 Irons

[levina]

If there is a club most nearly all of our testers wanted to love, it’s the Titleist 712 AP2 Irons
. It’s a well-known, well respected iron. Many of our testers had already hit it, a couple of them actually own it. We had some concern that the popularity of the club might influence our subjective polling, while that doesn’t seem to be the case, the AP2 did prove to be a sneaky popular iron.
Performance
Let’s get the ugly out of the way right out of the gate. In our accuracy tests, theTitleist 712 AP2 Irons
finished 2nd to last, just behind Fourteen’s TC-910, and ahead of the TourEdge CNC Forged. For those who might be willing to accept an accuracy trade-off for distance, the AP2s couldn’t come close to matching Fourteen for distance, finishing just 1oths above average. The Ap2s also finished close to average for launch angle, spin rate, and ball speed, which for our money makes for a good, thought not a standout performer.
Subjective
This is where the results get interesting, at least I think so. For all the familiarity, and despite my fears of brandwashing, the Titleist 712 AP2 Irons
is an iron that more or less flew under our radar during testing. While testers raved about the Cobra CB’s looks and the feel of the Fourteen TC-910, the AP2 very quietly found its way on to nearly every golfers list for every category we survey. Thought it finished outside the top 3 for feel, it finished T2 for looks as our testers seemed to appreciate its position as players iron, with a bit of a modern, yet sophisticated design. Most impressively, the Titleist 712 AP2 Irons
was the only iron to appear among each and every golfer’s surveyed top 3 irons they’d most like to bring home with them.
