XXIO 13 Irons Review: Are they any good?

The XXIO 12 irons were well received among handicap golfers seeking more clubhead speed and ball speed, and the new 13 model adds even more incremental gains.

Not only have they been made lighter, the weighting of the irons has been honed further to extract the maximum speed possible.

They are longer distance-wise compared to the previous 12 version and the tweaks in the design have made them more forgiving too. Expect to maintain those ball speeds wherever on the face you strike from.

What XXIO says about the new 13 irons:

“The all-new XXIO 13 Irons deliver the ultimate in moderate swing speed performance. Their advanced, four-piece design has a remarkably low Center of Gravity for a satisfyingly high launch.

“Rebound Frame technology helps you generate incredible ball speed, while the signature lightweight swing feel of XXIO lets you do it all with remarkable ease.

“XXIO 13 Irons feature a low Center of Gravity thanks to their 4-piece construction, which uses titanium faces and tungsten-nickel sole weights.

“That weighting, combined with our unique Rebound Frame structure which alternates stiff and flexible zones for added ball speed, gives you a satisfyingly high launch with incredible distance.

“The thin, high-strength titanium face, along with hollow portions of the heel, allow for an even larger high-density tungsten-nickel toe weight. This toe-side weight optimizes the Center of Gravity location for a higher, straighter launch.

“In addition to the L-Shaped Groove at the bottom of the Iron body, new grooves in the outer periphery of the clubhead improve face COR to add ball speed and distance.

“Rebound Frame uses alternating layers of stiff and flexible zones to enhance overall COR, creating an effect that acts like a spring within a spring. It adds ball speed and distance to every shot.

“On the Irons, a thinner face flexes more extensively while perimeter grooves etched deep into the interior of the Iron body add even more flex, especially for shots struck low on the face.”
