How each U•505 Utility Iron (2023) Iron loft changes the shot

Club Loft What that loft changes
1-iron 16° At 16° this is a true top-end distance iron. It will normally launch lowest, run out most and demand the most speed and strike quality in the set.
2-iron 18° At 18° this is a true top-end distance iron. It will normally launch lowest, run out most and demand the most speed and strike quality in the set. The gap from the previous club is 2°.
3-iron 20° At 20° this is a true top-end distance iron. It will normally launch lowest, run out most and demand the most speed and strike quality in the set. The gap from the previous club is 2°.
4-iron 22° At 22° this remains on the distance side of the set. The loft keeps flight stronger and flatter than the scoring clubs, so carry consistency matters more than the number stamped on the sole. The gap from the previous club is 2°.

The most useful test is still real carry spacing, because equal loft gaps do not always create equal yardage gaps.
