Golf irons no longer have the ability to surprise you, but Cleveland ZipCore XL Iron Set did so on a difficult par-4 seventh hole. A local salvo of 170 yards ought to have fallen short and on the right. Rather, the ball flew out of the front bunker and onto the green, leaving a makeable 20-footer of the birdie. There is more to this iron set than just what any spec sheet could tell us. Being a 13-handicap golfer and having been able to test these clubs in actual rounds, this review dissects what the ZipCore XL irons do in reality on the course rather than what the marketing is saying.<\/span><\/p>\n

And forgiveness that this set provides, as well as candid assessments of what this set falls short in.<\/span><\/p>\n
