Golf Utility Irons

A good Utility Golf Iron has become a staple in many of the world's best players' golf bags, offering an excellent blend of distance, versatility and forgiveness. Driving Irons can be deployed equally well for high launching, long flying shots into par 5s, the famous 'stinger' shots into wind, or as a fairway-finding go-to club from the tee. With traditional long irons being incredibly difficult to hit, and some players feeling that modern hybrid golf clubs don't quite offer the same shot making potential that they seek, a golf driving iron is invaluable. Our selection includes the best golf driving irons available, as well as the most forgiving golf utility irons, so you can add a touch of extra firepower and versatility at the top end of your golf bag.

Forgiveness

Forgiveness is one of the most attractive appeals of a driving iron. Often featuring added cavity back or hollow body designs, many utility irons also have graphite shafts more similar to fairway woods or hybrids than irons, which increase a golfer's clubhead speed for more distance and easier launch. Many also have increased sole widths to improve turf interaction, helping to add distance even on slightly heavy strikes. The added mass throughout the head is distributed more effectively into the heel and toe area as well as the bottom, increasing launch and carry distance on poor strikes.

Adjustability

Many golf utility irons now feature an adjustable hosel design to tailor your launch conditons perfectly. This comes in very handy if you play at a variety of golf courses and in different conditons. For example, being able to reduce the loft by 2 degrees for windy days where you might want to use the club for punch shots and stingers from the tee, or lofting up at a golf course that perhaps features more long par 4s where you might have longer approach shots into greens that require high flying, soft landing shots. Another benefit of having an adjustable utility iron is for gapping, helping to ensure the gaps between your irons and woods are even.

Shaft Options

Driving Irons can come in either graphite or steel shafts dependent on preference. The main difference between the 2 materials is weight, with graphite shaft options generally weighing between 40g-110g, as opposed to their steel counterparts which sit between 80g-130g in most cases. Graphite shafted utility irons are growing in popularity, and are often seen in the bags of the worlds best golfers - they're lightweight and easy to swing, easier to launch, and increase clubhead speed for more distance. Steel shafted Driving Irons are better to replace a longer iron and complete a set, as they can often be paired up with the same shaft as the rest of your golf irons to give a more consistent feel and weight throughout your set.

Shaft Flex

Another thing to consider when purchasing a Golf Utility Iron is shaft flex. While we always advise getting yourself on a launch monitor or having a custom fitting to determine the correct spec and options, a general rule for swing speeds and the equivalent shaft flex is as follows:

Under 70mph - Womens
70-80 mph - Senior
80-90 mph - Regular
90-105 mph - Stiff
Over 105 mph - Extra Stiff

FAQs

Q - How to hit a driving iron?

A - Driving irons are designed to be super easy to use - simply position the ball more forward in your stance, and to use the same swing you would use with the rest of your irons - the extra mass in the bottom of the club makes utility irons naturally easy to launch high for long flying shots even on off-centre strikes. Whether you hit down on the golf ball or sweep it, the driving iron will be equally effective. If you need to hit a lower flying shot into the wind, simply put the ball position more towards the middle of your stance, and apply 60-65% of your weight pressure into your lead foot to encourage a more downward strike for the classic 'stinger' ball flight.

Q - What is the benefit of a Driving Iron

A - Golf Driving Irons, or Golf Utility Irons, are incredibly versatile clubs that can be used in a wide variety of conditions. On windy links courses, they're absolute gold dust as they're much easier to hit low punch shots with than hybrid clubs. Likewise with their extra mass and lower centre of gravity, they can be used to hit high-flighted shots off the front foot into long par 4s or par 5s. Another benefit of a utility iron is that some players simply don't like the look, feel or shape of a hybrid, so a driving iron can offer more control and versatility.

Q - How to choose a Utility Iron

A - If you're a higher handicap golfer, look for a utility iron with lots of perimeter weighting, cavity back or a hollow body design, as these designs offer incredible forgiveness on off-centre strikes. Also look for one with a lightweight graphite shaft which should be easier to swing and increase your speed for more distance. If you're a better player or low handicapper, try to find a driving iron with minimal offset and a lower launching shaft for more workability and shot making potential. Every utility iron is designed with forgiveness in mind, so you shouldn't be punished too severely for slightly thin, toe or high on the face strikes.
