APPLY NOW: Takomo Golf Iron 201 Set! Three testers needed!

[GolfWRX_Official]

Takomo Golf and GolfWRX have an extremely exciting opportunity for our members to test out the brand new Iron 201s! These irons are set to release at the end of the month to the general public. The 201 is a forged player’s iron with control, distance, and great feel. We are looking for three testers to test out Takomo's new irons and report back to the community with what they see. 

About Takomo Golf's Iron 201 Set

• Precision-forged S20C steel gives the Iron 201 a soft feel and responsiveness. The back and face are finished with a custom milling process.
• The Iron 201 cavity back design makes it forgiving while retaining workability. The milled back pocket adds ball speed and moves the center of mass low for additional forgiveness.
• The stock setup is designed for mid to high launch and distance. The 201 comes with 3 different shaft options from KBS: Tour 105, C-Taper, and C-Taper Lite. For this testing event, only C-Taper (low launch) and C-Tape Lite (mid/high launch) will be available.
• The stock grip, Lamkin Crossline, is designed for golfers who demand Tour-proven performance with classic looks.

5. Why do you want to review the Takomo 201 irons? First of all, these irons look beautiful! I think the direct to consumer space is becoming more and more attractive as the price of clubs from the major OEM's continues to increase. I have been playing Vice balls and have not seen any performance trade offs from my previous ProV1 ball. I would love to test these irons to to see how clubs in the D2C space compare to the more established names in golf.

4. Are you right-handed or left-handed? Right
5. Why do you want to review the Takomo 201 irons? I've been in the market for irons with a little more forgiveness but still the same look at address giving the blade feel.  So far nothing I've tried has a better feel than the VR pros when struck well.

4. Are you right-handed or left-handed? Right Handed
5. Why do you want to review the Takomo 201 irons? They seem like a great blend of forgiveness and control. Perfect set to replace the CMBs, and a great option where forgiveness is good, but it's not adding distance via slots and foams.

5. Why do you want to review the Takomo 201 irons? I think that there has been enough change since 2014 when these irons were made. I also noticed my distance decreased since playing these irons due to the higher lofts. I think these irons would be a good option to replace the Wilson Staff irons. I also am interested to see the performance of a direct to consumer brand vs. a major oem.
