Grindworks PR-101A Forged Irons [Limited Edition][3-PW][RIGHT][STIFF]

The PR-101A forged iron was developed together with Patrick Reed based on his needs as a top pro. Reed approached grindworks to collaborate on an iron that would allow him to knock down shots from any distance without worrying about ballooning or loss of direction. They used soft S20C forging to enhance feel and spin. The center of gravity was raised to improve the stability and control of the iron, and was done utilising a stepped design. As a result, Reed was able to attack the pin with a more penetrating shots and higher spin rates resulting in shots closer the pin.

The PR-101A has a smallish head with less offset that frames the ball well at address. The sole is narrower and the leading edge is straighter but with relief which helps interact with the turf more cleanly at impact by minimizing fat shots/digging. The stepped back muscle helps create a thinner top line which is more eye pleasing for the better player. The stepped design also helps with functionality and feel, the thicker area is larger towards the toe which prevents the head from over rotating closed thus minimizing pulls and hooks. The step groove in the middle makes the sweet spot slightly thinner, increasing spring effect and the widening the sweet spot of the face for more ball speeds and more forgiveness.

Premium S20C soft carbon steel forging and a finish in half satin NiCr plating results in a more pure feel and more bite on the ball . A mix of clean and modern aesthetics will appeal to a wide variety of golfers looking for an iron that focuses on feel, stability and shot making.

The Limited Edition grindworks x Patrick Reed PR-101A irons are shafted with N.S.PRO MODUS3 TOUR 105 steel shafts which feature a smooth bend profile and feel thanks to a stiffer tip and slightly softer mid section. The mid spin and mid flight characteristics of the shaft pair well with the head in creating a stable and powerful trajectory. The slightly lighter weight (106.5g) allows more players to play this iron, light enough for the amateur golfer to create more speed and distance by allowing them to load and feel the shaft, yet stable enough for the stronger player to produce stronger and consistent shots. An all around shaft for a premium forged performance iron.
