Why are Wilson Golf's new DYNAPWR Forged irons so good?

Having recently unveiled its new Staff Model irons, Wilson Golf has another exciting product release in the form of its DYNAPWR Forged iron, which has been engineered to offer a supreme players distance iron that boasts a softer, more responsive feel.

But just how do these irons perform under a comprehensive test - and how do they compare to Wilson's other latest irons, the Staff Model Blade, CB and XB? That's what Golfshake's Equipment Expert, Ryan Rastall wanted to discover when he reviewed them for us.

Using Trackman from his indoor performance studio at Howley Hall Golf Club in Leeds, Ryan shares his insights and impressions of the new DYNAPWR Forged iron, which should be especially appealing to mid-handicap golfers, and sees how the raw numbers measure up to the manufacturer's other new clubs.

Wilson DYNAPWR Forged Irons Review

Having now watched the video, let's take a closer look at the tech and innovations that have been introduced during the construction of these irons.

What You Need to Know About Wilson's DYNAPWR Forged Iron

The new DYNAPWR Forged iron is crafted from Forged 8620 Carbon Steel and features a PKR-CUP face design combined with the brand’s AI-generated Variable Face Technology for greater distance and consistent launch windows to elevate playability.

Every model in the DYNAPWR irons family incorporates the unique AI-driven PKR-CUP face design, engineered to maximise ball speed and consistency across the entire hitting surface. By wrapping the face onto the sole, PKR-CUP creates a thinner, more responsive hinge region that flexes efficiently, particularly on low-face strikes, to generate faster ball speeds and higher launch. This construction also relocates the weld line away from the striking area, giving engineers greater control over face performance, reducing part-to-part variation, and ensuring more forgiveness and enhanced consistency.

Harnessing the power of advanced AI simulation, Wilson engineers have removed the power holes found on its predecessor and meticulously optimised clubface thickness to enhance flex and energy transfer at impact. The result is explosive distance and accelerated ball speeds, achieved without compromising the precision and control demanded by discerning players.

The cavity back design of the new DYNAPWR Forged iron is strategically infused with TE-031 Urethane in irons 3 through 9, precisely engineered to dampen vibrations at impact. The result is refined acoustics and a noticeably smoother, more satisfying feel with every shot.

"We wanted to build on the success of the previous award-winning model, while taking strides to elevate the performance to the next level," said Ben Hanser, CAD Engineer at Wilson Golf. "The new iron is a statement of Wilson’s dedication to innovation and tradition. By combining forged precision with AI-driven design, we’ve created an iron that delivers distance, control and feel in perfect harmony."

The sleek, polished mirror finish of the DYNAPWR Forged iron delivers a compact, player-inspired profile at address, combining tour-level aesthetics with enhanced forgiveness in a refined design that resonates with both competitive and aspirational golfers. Complementing its premium look, the iron’s high MOI construction and strategically lowered centre of gravity promote greater stability and consistency, producing higher launching and more forgiving shots with exceptional stopping power on the greens.

Joining the lineup, the new DYNAPWR Forged iron complements the DYNAPWR range, which is designed primarily for aspirational golfers who value added distance and forgiveness on occasional mishits. Alongside these sits the DYNAPWR Max, the longest and most forgiving iron in the range, offering maximum playability for golfers seeking confidence and consistency throughout their game.
