Product Description
Callaway Mens X-22 Irons feature: Back: The perimeter weighting of the X-22s has been maximized for a moment of inertia (MOI) thats 10 percent higher than their predecessors, meaning you get more forgiveness on off-center strikes; Extreme Notch Weighting redistributes weight to the perimeter of the iron to create a high moment of inertia for greater forgiveness and more stability Setup: The tour-inspired head shape has a slightly thinner topline with a large sweet spot for improved aesthetics and forgiveness to boost your confidence;17-4 stainless steel construction for softness and durability Face: VFT Technology allows the center of gravity to be lowered for optimum trajectory with each iron in the set, giving a higher launch angle in the long irons and better trajectory height in short irons and wedges; Maximizes ball speed and perimeter weighting for more distance and forgiveness Toe: The ideal center of gravity position has been preserved, generating optimal ball-flight trajectories Sole: Engineers took elements designed for Tour players, like a narrower sole, and incorporated them into highly forgiving irons with a higher MOI so they can be played by a wide range of golfers; Modified Tru-Bore -an advanced version of th
Amazon.com Product Description
The goal of Callaway's X-Series irons has always been lofty: to set the performance standard for the industry. Now Callaway does it again with the X-22 irons, the best X-Series irons the company has ever made. Callaway's X-22 irons are dialed in for maximum performance, with such features as Precision Notch Weighting, VFT Technology, a Modified Tru-Bore design, and a tour-inspired head shape. It's no wonder that the X-22 irons won a gold medal in the "game improvement irons" category from Golf Digest's 2009 Hot List. As one tester said of the X-22s: "I could hit these blindfolded. Sign me up right now." Currently sitting in tour player Rocco Mediate's bag, the X-22s received five stars in three of the four Hot List categories. The X-22s are the heirs of the unbelievably successful X-20 irons, which were used by Mediate as well as Senior U.S. Open Champion Eduardo Romero and LPGA winner Leta Lindley.

The X-22 irons are outfitted with several core technologies, including both relatively new innovations and technologies that have stood the test of time. Callaway maximized the perimeter weighting of the X-22s to create a moment of inertia (MOI) that's 10 percent higher than earlier versions, giving you more leeway on off-center strikes. This boosts the club's overall forgiveness and stability, while still maintaining the center-of-gravity position that produces an ideal trajectory and feel. The X-22s Variable Face Thickness (VFT) technology, meanwhile, maximizes ball speed and perimeter weighting to create even more distance and forgiveness. And a crucial improvement comes in the form of the S2H2 design, a patented technology that shortens the length of the hosel, allowing the weight to be moved lower and to the more useful perimeter area of the clubhead. Add in a 360-Degree Undercut Channel--which maximizes perimeter weighting by moving the center of gravity even lower and farther back--and you have a club that hits the ball far and straight even on rough swings. The X-22 irons are also aesthetically pleasing, with a PGA Tour-inspired head shape that incorporates a thin top line and a narrow sole. As a result, the clubs look and feel great in your hand while still offering a large sweet spot--a must for casual players. Finally, the X-22s boast an advanced version of Callaway's original Tru-Bore design, which features a polycarbonate tip plug at the end of the shaft to dampen vibration and enhance feel and performance.  
The X-22 irons include a Tour-inspired head shape and precise perimeter weighting for added leeway on off-center hits. |

X22s are a huge step up... April 20, 2009
Andy R
8 out of 8 found this review helpful
Ok, so I'll admit that I'm coming off a set of 20 yr old irons. So an upgrade to most any modern set would be a huge improvement. Im 25 yrs old, play 15-20 times a season, and shoot in the low 90s.
I hit these X22s at a local golf show along with the newest PING, Taylormade, and Nike irons. Of course it's all personal preference, but these irons were hands down the winner for me. I also read about the X18s, which can be found new for a very reasonable price. Several updates made by Callaway were enough for me to buy the newest irons for this season.
I've since had the irons out on the course. They hit long and straight. Very forgiving, that's for sure. Excellent feel, weight, and play. Extremely happy with these irons given the price tag.
