Whats the difference between Wilson Ci6 irons and the Di6 irons?

Question

i understand that the Ci6 irons were made for control and the Di6 irons were made for distance. but whats different about the club itself that makes it better for distance or control?

also, is the a big difference Ci6/Di6 and Ci7/Di7

Answer 1

They have one thing in common - they are not worth wasting your hard earned money on.  Spend it on Cobra, Callaway, Cleveland, Taylor Made, Titleist, Mizuno, Adams, Nickent, or anything other than Wilson, Walter Hagen, Intech, or Acuity.

Wilson used to be popular back in the 70's thru the 80's, but not anymore I'm afraid.

Answer 2

Not true at all, Padraig Harrington just won two majors using wilson irons. I personally prefer ping, but wilson is still a popular brand. The Ci6 and the Ci7 are players irons, they have a thinner top line and are less forgiving than the Di6 and di 7. If you handicap is below 10, get the ci6 or ci7s, if not then get the full cavity irons.

Ok to answer the second part, the thinner topline on the ci series provides more control for experienced players, such as mr. harrington, who dont need the forgiveness of the di irons.  These irons, are harder to hit, have a lower ball flight, and have a smaller sole, resulting in the lower amount of forgiveness, but a lot of control.  The di7, are distance, they have a fuller cavity and a large sole, so the iron is forgiving and it hits further than the ci irons.

to answer your final question, no theres isnt really a difference between the 6 series and the 7 series. harrington uses the 5 series, so i would get whatever appeals to your eye and fits your budget.

Answer 3

I like Callaway, Tayormade, Mizuno and so on
