I've read Callaway's web-site but still don't fully understand the difference between the Diablo Edge Irons vs X-22's?.........any thoughts?

Thanks!

Im stuck between these two as well. Anyone have thoughts?

Im playing at about 100 usually right now, would like to be able to make more consistent contact with the ball if that helps...

Wow an old thread but
Diablo line replaces the Big Bertha line, they are marketed towards high handicappers.
The x-22's will have thinner top lines and narrower soles, although these are forgiving they are designed for better players.

Scvbrent: You need to try the clubs. It's the only way to tell which set you will like. I will ad. That the Adams Os sets(a3os, a7os, etc...) are very very good on mishits.

I purchased the Diablo Edge Irons about a month ago from Golfsmith. I tried both the Diablo Edge and X-22 irons (among others) with the launch monitor and the pro who was helping me said, with the Diablo's I was putting less sidespin on the ball and hitting the ball about 5-10 yards further. I'm guessing the deeper cavity back makes them more forgiving, if you occasionally hook or slice the ball, and adds a little distance.

I've had them for about a month and have gone from shooting around 100 to low 90s/high 80s. I attribute some of that improvement to the clubs and some to improving my overall game.

The Diablo's are the replacement for the Big Bertha series, a super game improvement iron. The X22's are the previous offering in the Callaway X series, which is classified as game improvement. You list your handicap as 6, so I would guess the X22's may be a better fit for you, but both are good clubs. You may want to check out the Diablo Forged, a really nice set for people who want a more "player" type club.

      Day 35, June 8. Before leaving for work this morning (yes, I'm posting this quite late relative to the practice), I spent 15 minutes practicing at home, into a net.  This time, it was primarily 9-iron (full swings), with some UW (full and half) and a few 6-iron.

      Day 73: just some mirror work today. Working on feels for being open and getting the front shoulder down.

      I'm liking this. Finally getting down hands in front of my trail leg pocket consistently at A6 with much better clubhead position (relatively not as tipped out). I can really pressure the shaft through impact with good face control  from this position and stay in balance. Won my first one v one march 5&4 against a 4 hcp who routinely drives it 35-40 yards past me in the men's club match play . Frustrated him with some solid iron play and air tight putting.

      Day 8 (Jun 8 26) - Stayed the drill but added two additional irons (7i, 8i and 9i) - using Divot Board and hard foam balls - focused on tempo and purposed pause at the top….noticing how open the club is marking the board when I try to kill it and how much more square (and better distance) when I focus on these keys.
