Advantages: better distance and accuracy Disadvantages: slightly expensive
...years and recently swapped my Wilson Prostaff graphite irons for a new set of Wilson Fat Shaft Hyper Carbon Irons.
My playing handicap is 17 and being female, struggle to get any distance with my iron shots, however I believe that is all about to change.
The Wilson Fat Shaft technology, I believe has the right idea for these clubs. With club head sizes increasing over the years, it makes sense to increase the shaft diameter producing less torque ... ...(compared to standard .335")
