Something for Every Golfer's Christmas List

It's a little early to start talking about Christmas, so please forgive me. However here's something for all you golfers to get excited about; the new 712 AP1 and AP2 golf irons from Titleist are a must for your Christmas list. Building on the already popular 710 range of Titleist golf clubs, the new 712 range of AP, or Advanced Performance irons have improved on feel, forgiveness and control to create one of the most advanced golf irons to date.

Often golf clubs aimed at the more serious golfer give improved performance at the expense of 'feel' which can have an adverse affect of the state of play. A golfer needs to feel at one with the club they're using, they need to feel it responding to them all the way through the swing and this is where some 'high end' golf clubs let their user down. Titleist clubs however, have addressed this in their AP range of irons and have developed a user friendly set of clubs which the professional golfer immediately took to their hearts.

The new 712 range of Titleist golf clubs has built on this concept further by utilising a thin aluminium face and a dual cavity design which distributes the weight of this golf iron perfectly giving much improved ball flight. The tungsten nickel sole keeps the centre of gravity low promoting increased forgiveness and stability, and the elastomer tuned feel system inside the back cavity gives each strike of the ball the most satisfying 'crack' in golf.

Both the AP1 and AP2 are available with a choice of either a steel or graphite shaft, the latter being a little more expensive than the steel shaft. Deciding whether to go for the graphite of steel version of these new golf irons is purely don’t to personal preference. Just because the graphite cost a little more and is a newer innovation does not mean it will make you play better. Even some of today's top golf stars still prefer a good old steel shaft rather than the new fangled graphite shafts.

Unfortunately the new 712 range of Titleist golf clubs is not available until November the 18th 2011, so you'll have to wait a couple of months before you can get your hands on one. They would however make a perfect Christmas gift for the budding golfer, or if you are the budding golfer who's just had their appetite wetted, now is the time to add  these new Titleist clubs to your Christmas list!
