It seems like forever that Wilson has had the knack of making really good-looking irons and new Staff Models are a great step along the same road. In addition to the usual blade and cavity back they added a players’ distance model called the XB.
The hollow foam-filled body construction of the XB helps with face flex at impact so though I haven’t seen any definitive numbers they should be longer than either of the two stablemates.
All three have a revamped hosel designed to reduce weight which shifts more weight towards the toe and this helps with forgiveness on off center impacts.
