After much anticipation Wilson Staff has released their FG 59s irons.

The Wilson Staff Fg59 iron is inspired by the original Fg17 iron, widely recognized as one of the game's most important -and beautiful- irons ever produced. "59" commemorates the 59 Major Championships earned with Wilson irons, the most by any brand in the game. Image

Though the inspiration came from a classic design, the performance remains intact. PGA Tour professional and Wilson Staff player DJ Trahan play-tested a prototype set in late 2007 and immediately put them into his bag. Since his switch, DJ has earned a victory at the 2008 Bob Hope Classic as well as numerous top 10 finishes, including a strong 4th place finish at the 2008 US Open.

59 Major Championships... And Still Counting
Designed in the time-honored tradition of forged clubs, yet modernized for today's competitive and skilled player, the Fg59 irons feature a slightly wider sole and lower muscle back to drop the center of gravity and improve ground interaction.

Hard sole prevents skidding on harder fairways, while mild camber and relief flange minimizes digging on softer fairways
Thin topline forged from mild carbon steel delivers maximum power, soft and responsive feel
Minimal offset to improve workability and trajectory control
Sleek, classic looks of original Fg17 irons

Limited Edition Series

For a limited time only, Wilson Staff is offering the Fg59 irons in a limited edition collector's box.

Whether you are a casual golfer or a serious player, the Fg59's will be a great addition to your collection of Wilson Staff irons.
