Today, McLaren officially announced the launch of McLaren Golf, along with its first two iron models, the Series 1 and Series 3. While the brand has teased its entry into golf on social media over the past few months, this marks the full unveiling of what it has to offer. With quite a few high-level golf people at the helm, McLaren Golf set out to build equipment that pushes the limits and goes where other brands won’t due to certain limitations. The main technology they are focusing on is Metal Injection Molding to build ultra-precise parts to ensure the irons perform at the level intended. Using MIM gives engineers greater control over all aspects of the irons, as it is more precise than casting or forging. Inside each iron is high-density tungsten and head shaping to create a center of gravity location that enhances performance. McLaren Golf announced its entry into golf with Justin Rose at the wheel before the 2026 Cadillac Championship. Justin Rose isn’t a brand ambassador, but an investor in the brand. Recently, we have seen LPGA Major Winner Michelle Wie West and LIV golfer Ian Poulter showing their involvement with McLaren on social media. “Our technology and manufacturing efficiencies, with both Series 1 and Series 3, allow us to start strong and immediately compete with industry front runners,” said Head of Engineering, Ryan Badgero. “It starts with Metal Injection Molding, which gives us complete control over material chemistry, geometry and mass distribution. That level of control allows us to design each iron as part of a system, where we have a vision and pre-determined goal that we’re able to engineer into reality.” Series 1 This is the iron that we saw in the bag of Justin Rose, McLaren’s blade. McLaren set out to make a blade that was more forgiving while still being consistent and workable by the best players in the world. The Structural Mesh takes its visual cues from McLaren supercars, but it also improves performance. Structural Mesh removes weight from where it isn’t needed and moves it to more advantageous areas while keeping the location strong. Inside the iron is an internal weighting that includes tungsten to stabilize launch and improve consistency. McLaren also has an internal silicone damping unit that improves sound and feel while moving weight to the heel and toe for more forgiveness. Series 3 This iron is built to play in the players distance category with more perimeter weighting. The body is MIM and has internal geometry to optimize CG placement. At the center of the cavity is a carbon fiber “bonnet” that pays homage to the automaker and adds a performance benefit. The carbon absorbs vibration for better sound and feel while helping stabilize the structure of the iron head. Under that bonnet is what McLaren is calling a “unique calibration weight system.” McLaren also created a sole that improves turf interaction with leading edge camber and heel cut relief. Both Series 1 and Series 3 irons will be priced at $375 USD per iron and available at select fitters on April 30th. You can also order the irons directly online from the McLaren Golf website.

Luke Warmwater May 3, 2026 at 11:51 am I remember when PXG went after the Range Rover demographic a few years ago. ReplyReport comment;) Benny May 3, 2026 at 4:16 pm Well said, Luke. Then once they couldn’t sell anymore they dumped their prices to what their real value is/was. PXG proved its marketing and it worked until it didn’t. I suspect these are made by another OEM and Rose ended worst for the week. ReplyReport comment;) 2. Justin Apr 30, 2026 at 8:12 am A good player can play well with any golf clubs. De Chambeau hits a cheap Costco driver nearly 300 yards. Those McClaren clubs are no different that any others. The honeycomb back will be a nightmare to clean and the plastic logo covering the tungsten weight is similar to my old Golden Bear irons. ReplyReport comment;) 3. Hawkeye Apr 29, 2026 at 10:02 pm $500 AUD per iron? Good luck anyway McLaren. The honeycomb-grill trim is a bit hard on the eye….but I suspect it will soon appear in someone’s bag at a Club near me. I’d like to see an iron that features a guy being eaten by a large snake. C’mon Alpha Romeo. You must be ready for P1 in the bespoke golf club market. ReplyReport comment;) 4.

In our forums, one user put forth a straightforward question that has yielded a ton of responses. @boycer asked: Currently gaming the L.A.B. Link 2.2. Tried the Phantom 5 OC, Bettinardi SB2,L.A.B. DF3. Have a VZN.1i gears coming. I need to do a fitting. Users in the thread shared their gamers, in addition to all the flatstick options they have when their go-to isn’t cooperating. 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. @TSgtMad: “I rotate them lol. Currently Bettinardi Antidote SB2 — really like this one – first foray into the ZT-ish putters. T.P. Mills SoftTail short neck. T.P. Mills Huey stainless. Cameron slant neck. Not in the rotation: SB1 — need to cut this one down and put a different grip. BB-48.Benninardi INOVAI 9 — good putter just feels odd (pingy/hollow i guess?). The thing I have found most consistent for me is grip matters most for my putting. Grip is Golf Pride Reverse taper. @mlwyatt: “Ping Ketsch G is the primary. Antidote SB1 is getting some reps. Want to try the SB2 and Hexperimental 2. The Ketsch G is a true game improvement putter and I should get rid of everything else but I love the look and feel of the Bettinardis.” @Sean289: “I’m currently gaming the PING 2023 Anser with the Cobra Agera 3D Printed RS30 as my backup. The Anser is better for me on medium and lag putts while the Agera is better for me on short putts. The endless tug of war of which one I should game is never ending!” @2ironspecial: “Previously was the Spider Tour X. Now currently in love with the Ai One 1. Forgot I had a Ping 1966 TR Anser 2 with the starshot finish. Might get it reshafted with a CT Tour, but putting really well with the 1.” Entire thread: “What putter are you gaming?” If you aren’t already a member, join us in the GolfWRX forums today.
