Here is what I could find,

Titleist MB: 1025 Carbon Steel

Ping i25: 17-4 Stainless Steel

Mizuno: 1025E Carbon Steel

Callaway Apex Pro: 1020 Carbon Steel

Still, even more game improvement irons will have a harder steel casting, then they will forge in a softer face insert. Though it still might sound a bit more harsh than some muscleback irons, a lot of game improvement irons have good feel.

Looks like most forged irons tend to go with 1020/1025 Carbon Steel.

Caste irons probably use more stainless steel. Again the face might not be the same material as the body of the iron.

      Golf Joke

      By teamplayer2 ·

      Three women were playing on the fourteenth hole, walking up to the green when out of the bushes come a very well endowed masked naked man running across the green in front of them, into the bushes on the other side.   The first lady gasped and said, "That wasn't my husband"  The second lady sighed and said, "That wasn't my husband"  The third lady said, "That wasn't anyone from THIS Club!"

      Played 9 yesterday at Cape Ann in Essex, MA. Played awful with maybe 4 really good shots but the course is so beautiful being right on the water it's hard to be to upset. I haven't practiced in forever so I'll need to get going on that.  Been better getting to the gym since I've been out here in NH. I came out from Minnesota for my well being so I figured I should be working on just that. Still hovering around 226 which surprises me as my sister in law feeds me quite well. Excited to be back east for the Celtics coronation. Go Celts!!!
