Review: Wilson Staff FG Tour V4 Utility Iron
On the course it definitely plays more like an iron, than a wood. I could hit it much easier out of the rough than a typical hybrid. Off the tee it was about the same and off the fairway it was a club that you can go after and take a divot like you would an iron. You can compress it rather than sweep it.
There are 2 main difference between the Wilson FG Tour V4 utility iron and a wood style hybrid. This has much less draw bias compared to most hybrids. That is always the knock on hybrids is their tendency to hit draws. The other biggest difference I found was the consistency of distance. Typically my hybrid hits in a range of yardage, 200 – 215 even at times squeezing out 225. But the Wilson FG Tour V4 utility iron almost always hits the same 200-205 yardage. The distance circle was much tighter.
