Diablo Edge Irons vs X-22's?

[mrbillinoc]

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.
