The McLaren Golf Series 3 irons are genuine high-performance clubs with outstanding feel and solid forgiveness, proving they are far more than a brand gimmick. However, at £360 per club, cluttered numbering, and delicate finishing, they will remain an exclusive luxury purchase.
Their scorecard
Forgiveness: 4/5 — Bad strikes stay on line reasonably well
Workability: 4/5 — Easy to shape low cuts and high draws
Feel: 5/5 — Deep thud sound; sensational impact sensation
Turf interaction: 4/5 — Glides cleanly out of rough, fairway, and divots

What they rate
Sensational impact feel and unique muted sound profile
Generous forgiveness and distance even on toe/thin strikes
Refined aesthetic designed with input from Justin Rose and Ian Poulter
What they don’t
Prohibitive price tag (£360 per club / £3,000+ per set)
Numbered badging looks cluttered and confusing inside the bag
Soft metal easily chips and dings when riding in a cart or traveling
