Today’s Forum Thread of the Day comes from justasgood who asks WRXers for their view on the smallest iron blade ever made. Our members discuss what they believe to be the smallest blade head that has been made as well as the smallest blade irons that they have ever played.
Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.
- Fairway14: “’70s era Dunlop/Maxfli Australian blades were small heads. So were any of the ’60s and ’70s era Wilson Staff blades.For comparison, any of the blades made during the past 20 years, from companies such as Mizuno, have head sizes about 15% to 20% larger than older blade irons.”
- Oet11: “Went digging through the garage found Arnold Palmer 3 iron from the late ’70s, smaller than my Cobras.”
- golfguycanada: “I have some older Wilson “staff” blades that would look perfectly natural at a table setting for a five-course dinner. You could literally butter the bread with them.”
- rgk5: “1983 Cleveland 588 blades. Miniscule and the smallest I ever saw and played.”
