Grindworks MB-101A Forged Iron: Feel, Stability, Workability

New Grindworks MB-101A is a custom muscle-back blade made for golfers based on the Limited Edition PR-101A designed for consumers, amateurs, and those who want to achieve greater heights in their game.

The MB-101A forged iron was developed with Patrick Reed based on his needs as a top pro. Patrick Reed has approached Grindworks on August, 2018 about creating iron that would allow him to knock down shots from any distance without worrying about ballooning or loss of direction.
Using the soft S20C forging to enhance feel and spin, we created a stepped design for the Iron which places a focus on stability and control by raising the center of gravity height. This allows to attack the pin with a more penetrating shot and heavier spin resulting in shots closer the pin.

The MB-101A has a smallish head with less offset that frames the ball well at address. The sole is narrower and the leading edge is straighter but with relief which helps interact with the turf more cleanly at impact by minimizing fat shots/digging. The stepped back muscle helps create a thinner top line which is more eye pleasing for the better player. The stepped design also helps with functionality and feel, the thicker area is larger towards the toe which prevents the head from over rotating closed thus minimizing pulls and hooks. The step groove in the middle makes the sweet spot slightly thinner, increasing spring effect and the widening the sweet spot of the face for more ball speeds and more forgiveness.
