: "Throughout our ongoing research in irons, it became very clear that there exists a community within the better player market that requires the simple design and traditional feel and responsiveness of a classic forged iron," said Steve Pelisek, General Manager Titleist Golf Clubs. "The feedback we received from this competitive and better player audience is that they want a compact blade length, minimal offset iron with solid feel and shot workability." With the snows having finally melted, Bag Chatter got to give them a thorough test over the last few weeks.

Long Titleist CB 710 Irons seem to have enough low mass to help me hit them as high as needed with ease. Playing knockdown shots in winds up to 30mph also resulted in very favorable results. Working the ball in either direction was also accomplished easily. I will say that these Titleist CB 710 Irons are best suited to better than average to expert ball strikers. The new AP2 is definitely more forgiving and helps the player to achieve a high trajectory even out of the worst situations. There is not much negative to say about these irons other than they have tough competition in the Titleist family with the new AP2. The better player will certainly appreciate them and they deliver perfectly in a number of areas. Average ball strikers would struggle with them and likely rate them a 7-8 at best but for the player looking for a refined iron that still provides some room for a miss-strike or two they are close to a 10. Golfers will find that these irons are softer in shape that the Titleist 695CB with a shorter blade and less progression in blade height from the heel to the toe. The toe is more rounded and the reduced offset in the new Titleist CB 710 Irons is very noticeable over the 695CB’s. Titleist got it right with these. It is possibly the best forged cavity back they have ever offered.
