iron

A driving iron is a golf club designed to hit the ball long distances with a high trajectory. It is typically used on par 4s and par 5s, where players need to reach the green in two or three shots. Driving irons are typically made of steel or graphite and have a loft of between 16 and 22 degrees.

Driving irons offer a number of advantages over other types of clubs. They are longer than irons, which gives them more distance. They also have a lower loft than woods, which makes them more accurate. This combination of distance and accuracy makes driving irons a versatile club that can be used in a variety of situations.
