The lofts have been jacked up higher than we have seen in recent, modern game improvement irons \u2013 the 9-iron is set to a whopping 43\u00b0. But despite the relatively compact shape and profile, these are definitely still game improvement irons. Let\u2019s take a closer look at them.<\/p>\n \u201cThe Titleist DCI 981 are\u00a0true<\/em>\u00a0cavity back irons.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n We emphasize the\u00a0true<\/em>\u00a0because of the fact that the sole bleeds seamlessly into the top line. The top line then is raised quite a bit from the depth of the cavity. What you\u2019re left with is an iron that you can feed water to your cat with.<\/p>\n As you can imagine, this design gives the Titleist DCI 981 a pretty wide top line. Still, the distance from toe to heel isn\u2019t very long. Also, the face profile isn\u2019t very deep. At address, these irons have a compact look; but the pronounced offset reminds you that these are indeed game improvement irons.<\/p>\n \u201cThe Titleist DCI 981 irons may be older but they can work for a specific type of high handicapper. They were designed to offer a combination of workability, classic looks and forgiveness to the average golfer.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cOne of the most impressive design elements of the Titleist DCI 981 irons is the progressive CG.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n In the long irons, there is more CG emphasis near the heel. In the short irons, the CG shifts closer to the toe. This progressive CG makes the entire set much more manageable. That\u2019s because the heel-side CG makes it easier to square the face at impact so you get a straighter shot. Also, heel-side mis-hits are among the most common long iron mis-hits. So the extra mass helps stabilize flight (straightens it) on these kinds of mis-hits.<\/p>\n With the CG placed closer to the toe in the short irons, you get better forgiveness on toe-side misses. It also pulls the CG away from your hands so you get better control over flight and spin. The Titleist DCI 981 irons are forgiving because they will help you play above your handicap rating.<\/p>\n \u201cThe Titleist DCI 981 are excellent for beginners and high handicappers because they make each club easier to hit.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n The Titleist DCI 981 have deep undercut cavities and wide soles. This helps increase apex height which in turn, makes it easier to land the ball dead on the green or on a strategic lie. The long irons feel easy to swing. As long as you are moderately accurate, you will stay on the fairway on your full swings.<\/p>\n However, mis-hits can be punished quite severely. We noticed that our toe-side mis-hits in the long irons lost a lot of ball speed and dispersed widely. So while the Titleist DCI 981\u2019s are good for both beginners and high handicappers, we\u2019d say they are actually a bit better for high handicappers.<\/p>\n \u201cWe gave this section to our better testers since they\u2019re the ones who actually tested the Titleist DCI 981 irons first.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n They told us that the Titleist DCI 981 irons were surprisingly workable. Not only were they able to fade and draw the ball at will, they also said that flight workability was keen. Another thing that shocked them was the low spin rates. They were able to get a low, piercing trajectory from these irons that they said they\u2019ve rarely seen in game improvement irons.<\/p>\n When the rest of us got our hands on the Titleist DCI 981\u2019s, we were a little less thrilled. They aren\u2019t inherently forgiving due to their size. But once you find the sweet spot, it\u2019s easy to hit it consistently thereafter. The thing that impressed us the most about these irons though is the detailed performance improvements. Any iron can play long; but it takes a thoughtfully designed iron to make a high handicap player score like a mid handicapper. And the stopping power and accuracy of these irons does just that.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" CLUB TYPE:\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0IRONS SET MAKE:\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Titleist MODEL:\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0DCI LENGTH: CONDITION:\u00a0 \u00a0Very good Weight: Lie Angle:\u00a0 \u00a0 [\u2026]<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":1212,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_bbp_topic_count":0,"_bbp_reply_count":0,"_bbp_total_topic_count":0,"_bbp_total_reply_count":0,"_bbp_voice_count":0,"_bbp_anonymous_reply_count":0,"_bbp_topic_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_reply_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_forum_subforum_count":0},"product_cat":[20],"product_tag":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ahggolf.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/product\/1211"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ahggolf.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ahggolf.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ahggolf.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1211"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ahggolf.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/1212"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ahggolf.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1211"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ahggolf.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fproduct_cat&post=1211"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ahggolf.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fproduct_tag&post=1211"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}TITLEIST DCI 981 IRONS REVIEW \u2013 ARE THEY FORGIVING & GOOD FOR HIGH HANDICAPPERS?<\/h2>\n
