For many golfers, long irons are difficult to hit, and even when struck well, they don't generate enough distance or a high enough ball flight to score well. As such, the TaylorMade Qi Hybrid Combo Iron Set replaces menacing long irons with longer, more forgiving, easier-to-launch hybrids.
The TaylorMade Qi10 Rescue Hybrids feature a new, larger Infinity Carbon Crown, which covers a more substantial portion of the total crown area, replacing heavier steel with lightweight carbon fiber. TaylorMade strategically relocates the weight savings lower in the head, splitting mass between the front and back of the club. The result is a Rescue that delivers exceptionally long distance, an easy, high launch, and added forgiveness.
With a mid-face height, the versatile Qi10 Rescue blends escapability from even the tightest of lies with confidence off the tee, making it ideal for a wide variety of players, from professionals to recreational golfers.
During testing, TaylorMade found that virtually all game-improvement irons share one glaring design flaw: they exaggerate the right miss for the right-handed golfer and the equivalent left error for a lefty. This is particularly troublesome, as the slice is the most common mis-hit among players needing game-improvement assistance. To combat this glaring flaw, the new Qi Irons are engineered to control face flexibility and eliminate unwanted cut spin, resulting in straighter shots that regularly find their target.
Thanks to TaylorMade's stability-boosting Cap Back construction, extremely fast, flexible face, and extended blade length, Qi's foundation is based on maximum distance and forgiveness. Each iron in the set is then optimized to amplify the flight and spin characteristics for its intended purpose. A lower and deep center of gravity in the long irons generates a high, easy launch, leading to increased carry yardages with a green-holding descent angle. The center of gravity and face progressively shift throughout the set, culminating in scoring clubs offering precision, control, and accuracy.
True Temper's Elevate MPH, the lightest and highest launching Elevate model, is designed to combat the low spin industry trend, yielding maximum speed and carry distance while remaining stable. Golfers requiring even more speed and launch assistance should opt for Fujikura's Ventus graphite shaft. The Blue TR features a stiff tip section for outstanding control at impact and a smooth profile that enhances load capabilities.
