Abstract
New golf irons have the shaft attached into the club head directly through the club face, which allows the club face to be generally symmetrical in order to ease alignment of the club for hitting, to reduce moments of inertia which could turn the club face to spoil a hit, and to enlarge the area for best hitting.
