Introducing the RomaRo Ray V V1 Irons! A Hollow blade with unique inner weight screw technology to provide different performance characteristics. Today there are many hollow players irons on the market, in a somewhat newer segment in the states but has long been around in Japan. RomaRo has a unique take on this type of iron with their new Ray -V- V1 iron.
The Ray V1 is a single piece S20 forged iron yet has a long hollow port milled out, which can take 3 different toe weight screws and 3 different inner insert screws of varied length and material. By changing these screws/inserts, you can alter the performance and feel of the iron. The shorter screw is made of titanium and creates a more firm and solid impact yet increases ball speeds, while the longer screw made of chrome-molybdenum steel makes the impact feel softer. Mix and match the 3 varied weight screws with the 3 inserts to alter the ball’s initial velocity, launch angle, spin rate, and even feel of hitting within the same head or remove the insert screw entirely to raise the center of gravity and increase ball speeds.
The new Ray V1 utilizes a reverse taper blade that thickens near the top line area yet remains unseen at address; combined with its diagonally ground top line it creates the appearance of a compact players iron slightly larger than a traditional muscle back.
The Ray V1 is sold with a base set of #5-PW. #3 and #4 are optional. The standard weight screw configuration is (stainless steel 3g) + inner screw (titanium 4.5g) installed
