The table right (figure 1) shows a pretty frightening development I think. Fifteen years ago the funny quote from Lee Trevino alleged that “no-one could hit a 1 Iron”. Well look at the loft on today’s #3 Iron and you can see it is well on its way to being a 1 Iron that Lee Trevino could NOT hit.
Wow, I had no idea that was happening. No wonder I can't hit my 5 iron anymore! I stopped carrying the 4 a while ago. No wonder, less loft than my old 2 iron, which I also couldn't hit.
