Testing Grounds: Wilson Pi7 The spiritual descendent of Wilson’s august iron models, with considerably more forgiveness
By Tom Cunneff One of our testers grew up playing Wilson Staff muscleback irons, and he still gets misty-eyed talking about them. So he and other testers were eager to try the Pi7, the latest players’ club from a company with a storied history. While the Pi7 appeals to low handicaps with a smaller blade and thinner topline, it shouldn’t be compared with its hard-to-hit predecessors. Underlying the clean cosmetics at address are a perimeter-weighted cavity for forgiveness and a wider sole for playability. “I can’t believe how high, soft and far I can hit these,” says the tester with Staff memories, an 8. “The forgiveness is a real help. The only drawback is that it is hard to work the ball, especially knockdowns.” MSRP: $799 (steel shafts); 4–SW
