There’s been a lot of hype about the technology and performance of the entire RocketBallz line. The dark gray satin finish and single white paint fill along the bottom groove of the face combines for a nice and attractive look at address. The 3, 4, and 5 have a thick top-line while the 6 through Pitching Wedge have a look and thickness that is similar to most other game-improvement irons. I feel like I don’t need to work very hard and the clubs feel smooth and consistent throughout the swing.Įach club is individually optimized and tuned – so different clubs have noticeably different looks. The solid feel of the clubs results in a high degree of confidence for me. Since I’ve walked every round with these clubs – I can say that the carry weight does not seem any heavier than normal while the swing weight feels heavier while playing. TaylorMade refers to the solid backs as having 2 piece MetalWood Construction.Īs I pulled the clubs out of the box the irons certainly felt more solid than my normal irons. The solid backs give the club a feel closer to a hybrid than a standard long iron. The clubs have an open cavity in the 6 through Attack Wedge while the 3, 4 and 5 iron have a solid insert. At this point I’m really content with the overall look of the clubs and they certainly have a nice feel. While I wasn’t fully blown away by the look of the clubs, they did grow on me after a couple of rounds. The neon green is subdued enough that it’s really not noticeable through regular play with the clubs. While I’d personally prefer something other than neon green accents – the accents do have a nice flow from the cavity to the highlights on the grips. I really like the dark gray steel, the sole of the irons have a nice shine, the carbon accents are nice, and the quality feels solid. My initial impression while unboxing of the irons was good. The set I played was a standard RocketBallz Iron Set (4 through Attack) with the regular-flex steel shafts.

I’ve had the opportunity to play the RBZ irons over the past 10+ rounds and these are my opinions on the look, feel, and overall capabilities of the clubs… While the name of the line results in plenty of chuckles – the performance of the line appears to be no joke. Coming off of a solid year of new introductions last year – TaylorMade has kept the new products and technologies coming with the introduction of the new RBZ line of drivers, fairway woods, and irons.Īlthough it initially looked like TaylorMade had made a major fumble in naming the RocketBallz line – the products appear to be really catching on with the majority of golfers.

There has been a ton of publicity and buzz around the RocketBallz (RBZ) line from TaylorMade this year.
