Why The Edel SMS Is Truly An Iron Like No Other

Adjustable clubs have been commonplace in golf for the last two decades, but very rarely in the irons. Until now.

Premium equipment manufacturer Edel Golf and its Swing Match Weighting system allows golfers, and fitters, to fine-tune irons to specific golfers and their swings like never before.

The irons feature two 2g weights and one 8g weight, although 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10g are available, and by moving the heaviest weight to its optimal position golfers have the ability to unlock total face control and experience increased distance, dialed-in accuracy and ultimate performance.

When fine-tuned after a fitting, the SMS system can eliminate right or left misses, improve face impact position, add distance and accuracy, and optimize performance all around. Every golfer delivers the club in their own different way and that's where the SMS system comes in.

When the heaviest weight is in the wrong position, you'll certainly know it, and likewise, when it's in the optimal spot, you'll know that you've found the right iron setup for your action. The SMS irons are the first irons to truly fit your swing.

Edel SMS Irons

The SMS irons are a players-distance club made from a forged hollow body construction with Edel's proprietary urethane foam fill, which increases distance and helps to dampen vibrations for a better sound and feel. Great feel also comes from the soft forged 1025 carbon steel construction that is buttery soft through impact.

As well as feeling great, the SMS irons fly a long way too. An incredibly strong plasma welded maraging steel face cup gives distance from across the entire face thanks to increased face flexing on off-centered hits. That means golfers can experience fast ball speeds even when you don't quite catch it out of the middle.

A versatile players sole grind has been developed on the SMS irons for greater turf interaction on different course conditions. A gradual curve of the leading edge makes them easier to hit from the rough and on tight lies. The sole’s curve from its leading to trail edge has been rounded to minimize drag through the turf and increase performance.

They're a great fit for single figure golfers and mid-handicaps who are looking to find an iron to fit their swing so they can attack flags and shoot lower scores.

Golfers using the SMS irons with the weight in the optimal spot gained on average 3.30 mph versus their current irons, with an average carry distance increase of 5.60 yards. In Edel's testing, golfers also hit the SMS irons 1.3 yards closer to the center line and just over 2 yards higher. Of the 25 golfers tested, 96% (all-but-one) had a higher ball speed with SMS vs their own irons.

Edel SMS Pro irons

The SMS Pro also feature the innovative Swing Match Weighting system but instead of a hollow body construction, they're a one-piece forged iron made from precision grain forging of the same buttery soft 1025 Carbon Steel as the SMS irons. 

The topline is thinner and the Pro is favored by better ball strikers looking for consistency, feel and durability to control shot shape, distance and workability.

The Pro model comes with a tour-inspired CNC-milled tri-step sole design that has been meticulously engineered for enhanced turf interaction and greater consistency from strike to strike and versatility in a host of lies and conditions. 

Edel Golf bills the SMS Pro as the most technologically advanced players iron ever created.

Both the SMS and SMS Pro models can be used in full sets, or golfers can combo them with SMS long irons and SMS Pro short irons. Each iron comes in various different shaft options and can be tailored to fit your swing and preferences with a full fitting.

Each set of SMS irons also come with a wrench so golfers can move the weights to best fit their swing as their swing changes.
