Titleist 2010 AP1 Irons- Advanced Performance With Feel


If you're a Titleist fan - or think you could be one! It would be nice. With so many new products released one by one and made by different Golf Company. People focus on the newest clubs as usually. I remember clearly when the Titleist create the 712 AP1 Irons, the predecessor 2010 AP1 was not popular as before during for a long time. Because of the superior quality, good feels and great looks, it strikes our eyes again.

Titleist says its AP1 irons are 'advanced performance, multi-material, dual cavity irons providing improved feel, great looks, shot control and higher flight with forgiveness for the avid to skilled golfer.' Titleist AP1 irons offer a contemporary, confidence-inspiring appearance in the set up position with a traditional profile shape, soft blends, modern proportions and semi-under slung hosel. In a nutshell, even golfers with normally low self-esteem can suddenly use these clubs.

Design and Technology
Developing an iron that maintains the coveted "Titleist feel" yet is forgiving enough for us double-digit handicap golfers is a tall order. The dual cavity and multi-material design are a radical departure from anything Titleist has made in the past and have been designed with one key bit of player feedback at the forefront: feel. That Titleist claims to have done so is nothing short of remarkable.

The AP1 irons are a radical and bold departure from any iron set that Titleist has come out with in the past. Just looking at a picture of them, you would have to second guess as to what exactly they were thinking as the looked quite "game improvement - no feedback".It covers the lower cavity and is designed to keep weight lower while giving players both good feel and added forgiveness. The attractive metallic back cavity plate with multiple elevation graphics, textures and color contributes to the AP1's great looks and bag appeal. This lower center of gravity gives players a higher launch angle with more ball speed and what Titleist calls "consistent spin performance across the hitting area." The upper cavity sits above the elastomer cushion and is adorned with a metallic cavity plate. Weight is pushed to the perimeter to give you increased forgiveness.

Titleist 2010 AP1 Irons Main Features:
>Higher Ball Speed Thin face, dual cavity design pushes weight to the perimeter for a hotter face and flight.
>Solid Feel High density tungsten nickel sole bar reduces low frequency vibration for solid feel.
>Improved, hotter feel the integrated aluminum and soft elastomer Tuned Feel System in the back cavity improves sound and feel at impact for a hotter.

Improved Feel, More Forgiveness
Building upon the high technology design and resounding success of the Titleist 2010 710 AP1 irons, Titleist introduces the new high performance AP1 irons for avid golfers. The Titleist AP1 are multi-material, dual cavity irons that take the design mission of "Advanced Performance You Can Feel" to new heights. The concept for the original Advanced Performance irons arose as a result of research that indicated serious golfers want performance with great feel, not performance at the expense of feel. The Titleist R&D team’s advanced research group has been conducting extensive sound and vibration analysis aimed at reducing the harsh lower frequency vibration that causes poor feel in irons.

Until now, Titleist 2010 AP1 Irons also name 710 AP1 Irons still on the hot list. They follow on from the success of the original Titleist AP1 Irons that were introduced back in 2008. AP stands for Advanced Performance and the new AP1 is a revamped version of the previous model which has been so popular over the past couple of years.
