The irons are divided into long, medium and short shots. Long irons usually refer to size 3 and 4. 5, 6, 7 are middle irons. Short irons are 8, 9, and 10. There are fewer and fewer people using long irons, and most of them use chicken drumsticks instead. Long irons are usually not easy to hit high, prone to squeeze. Because of the small angle, the long iron is useful when encountering big headwinds.
The iron eucalyptus ball head is designed with different split back style and concave back style. The blade back type has a higher center of gravity and is less likely to make the feeling of club head release. The concave-back type has a lower center of gravity. Some even achieve an ultra-low center of gravity, with a heavier bottom and a larger sweet spot area. Therefore, it is easier to hit the ball and can be hit higher.
Concave-backed types are often seen on the market. Short shots also include a split (P), a wedge (A), and a bunker (S). In short shots, professional players are usually more particular about it. They are also subdivided into different angles, 52 degrees, 53 degrees, 60 degrees, and so on. Different angles can hit different ball heights and different degrees of rotation. For amateurs, the wedge and bunker are usually shared. No. 10 is approximately equal to P, and No. 11 is equal to A (larger angle).
