Wilson launch C300 Wood range

Wilson Golf has introduced their first Wilson Staff C300 Crossover wood range featuring FLX Face Power Hole Technology which the brand believes to be its best ever in offering adjustability, forgiveness and distance. The new C300 woods have been engineered for the Crossover player, identified as a mid-to-low handicapper seeking greater distance, workability and forgiveness. Having seen and hit the product, it is their best-looking wood range in years, with its attractive red finish and classic pear shape at address.

The new Wilson Staff C300 wood range incorporates the technology included in the brand’s most popular iron range. Power Holes are located on the sole and crown of the head on the C300 driver and all the way around the head on the fairway wood and hybrid clubs, expanding the sweet spot for greater ball speeds across the entire hitting surface.

 

“We’re delighted to be the first brand to offer Power Hole technology in a wood as well as an iron range and believe it will prove to be a game changer in the game of golf,” said Jon Pergande, Global Innovation Manager at Wilson Golf.

“Our research showed visible technology made a huge difference at the impact position on the irons and adding it into the C300 wood range provides golfers with added confidence at address, but with the added ability to create desired shots with maximum distance,” he added.

Adjustable C300 Driver

The C300 driver in a Deep Matte Red finish features four power holes – two on the sole and two on the crown – spaced towards the heel and toe of the 460cc club head. Wilson Golf claims this feature increases the overall Face Deflection and adds seven yards in extra distance. The heel and toe Power Holes combined with new Reactive Face Technology provide greater balance performance across the entire club face.

Green Means GO! Fast Fit Technology 3.0 enables players to make quick adjustments by eliminating the need to remove the club head from the shaft. A six-way adjustable hosel covers loft settings from 8° to 14° in half degree increments allowing players to attain the ideal lie and face angle. Standard loft options are 9°, 10.5° and 12.0°. A Left handed option is available in 10.5° loft.

 

Multi-Fit Adjustability 3.0 allows a natural, draw or fade setting through three different weight placements – 2 x 6 gram weights (White paint fill) and a 1 x 2 gram weight (Black paint fill) that can be switched to create a desired shot shape.

Added to the hosel and loft options, the C300 driver creates a possible 54 unique head set-up’s making it one of the most adjustable on the market.

The C300 driver is available with a Fujikura Speeder Pro 58 shaft (58 grams) and Wilson Staff classic Lamkin Crossline pattern grip from 22 January, at an RRP of £349. Custom fit packages on different shafts and grips are also available.

Fairway wood and Hybrids

The C300 fairway wood features Power Holes around the club head (two on the crown and four on the sole and toe) for the first time ever, creating a larger sweet spot on the face for maximum forgiveness on off-centre hits.

A Carpenter Custom 455 Stainless Steel face insert combined with Power Holes and FLX FACE™ Technology increases Face Deflection by 5% across the entire clubhead resulting in increased ball speeds and distance.

Fast Fit Technology 3.0 creates a possible six loft options on the standard setting available (13.5°, 15° and 18°) along with Multi-Fit Adjustability 3.0 that includes the same weight options as the driver.

The C300 fairway wood is available with a Fujikura Speeder Pro 68 shaft (68 grams) and Wilson Staff classic Lamkin Crossline pattern grip. Left hand available in 15° and 18° loft options.

Including the same pioneering Power Holes around the clubhead as the fairway wood, the C300 hybrid features sole weight adjustability with two weights positioned to create a neutral or draw setting. The silver (12gram) weight in the toe combined with the black (2gram) weight in the heel creates the standard setting with the reverse set-up for the draw. Each Fast Fit Technology 3.0 setting features three loft options (17°, 20° & 23°) to help golfers find the perfect set-up.

The C300 hybrid is available with a Fujikura Speeder Pro 78h shaft (78 grams) and a Wilson Staff classic Lamkin Crossline pattern grip. Left hand available in 20° and 23° loft options.

The C300 fairway wood and hybrid will be available from 22 January at a recommended retail price of £219 (fairway) and £199 (hybrid).

The new C300 woods have been engineered for the Crossover player, identified as a mid-to-low handicapper seeking greater distance, workability and forgiveness.
