If you ask a tour pro the key to his game success, he will likely say that it’s his swing speed.

Apart from having the correct equipment, a golfer must hit near the sweet spot and with the maximum swing. His improvement in the game largely depends on whether he is increasing his swing speed progressively.

To launch a ball 300 yards and further, many pros use a swing speed between 110-125 mph. To be realistic, swing speed is a livelihood for a tour pro, for each mph adds to his paycheck.

Low to Mid Handicappers who usually prefer ‘Game Enhancement’ irons for more forgiveness can go for the X2 Hot Iron due to the premium features that it offers.

It has gone further than its predecessor, the Callaway X Hot Iron in terms of distance feel and forgiveness. Many pro-golfers say that after purchasing the X2 Hot, they observed that its predecessors had faults that they never noticed.… Read More
