Wilson Staff D9 Forged

2022

The D9 Forged sits in the increasingly popular 'players-distance' category, aiming to give better players (or improving mid-handicappers) forged feel without sacrificing ball-speed forgiveness. Independent reviewers (Golf Monthly, Plugged In Golf) were positive on feel and dispersion but consistent in flagging that it's an incremental refinement of the prior D7 Forged rather than a dramatic leap, and that its flatter trajectory can be a limiting factor for slower swing speeds.

GEARCADDIE FIT VERDICT

Who should play this club — and why

BEST FOR

Designed for mid-to-high handicap golfers who want the soft feel and sleek, thin-topline look of a forged players iron but still need meaningful forgiveness and launch assistance, particularly in the long irons.

VERIFIED PRODUCT FACTS

What is specific to this model

The Wilson Staff D9 Forged (2022) is a forged players-distance iron that blends game-improvement forgiveness with a slimmed-down, compact players-iron profile. It uses an updated, asymmetrical Power Hole design in the long and mid irons (4-7) to boost ball speed and launch, while the 8-iron through gap wedge revert to a more traditional forged, Power Hole-free construction for precision and feel.
