The Ferro process
Built Through Testing,
Not Marketing
At Ferro Golf, research and development starts with a simple question:
Does it actually make the golf club perform better?
A complete process
Our process combines club fitting, professional instruction, certified club building, launch-monitor testing and real-world player feedback.
We evaluate equipment through measurable performance, repeatable results and what happens when the club is actually put in a golfer’s hands.
What We Measure
Performance is the
complete picture
We look at the complete performance picture, including:
- Ball speed
- Launch angle
- Spin rate
- Carry distance
- Peak height
- Descent angle
- Dispersion
- Strike consistency
- Turf interaction
- Feel
The goal is not to chase one impressive number.
The goal is predictable, repeatable performance.
How We Test
Measure — Adjust
Retest
Our process is straightforward:
Every Ferro iron is evaluated as part of a complete golf club.
Head design, shaft, length, loft, lie angle, swing weight and grip all influence performance. That is why fitting and club building are part of our development process from the beginning.
Player Testing
MC and CB.
Tested in the bay
Cameron of the University of Hawaii Men’s Golf Team talks through his testing of Ferro MC and CB irons on TrackMan iO at Clubhouse Hawaii.

Testing
close to home
One of our PGA staff members and our head builder take Ferro irons to a local range near our shop in Hawaii. These sessions bring the playing and club-building sides of our team together as we continue evaluating the clubs outdoors.

Design evolution
Two profiles
One philosophy
Forged for Performance
Material matters
Ferro irons are forged from S20C carbon steel, selected for its feel, responsiveness and clean shaping.
DESIGNED IN THE USA · S20C STEEL FORGED IN ASIA · CUSTOM BUILT IN HAWAII
Our MC and CB designs offer different performance characteristics while maintaining a consistent Ferro design philosophy. Choose the complete MC or CB set that best suits your game.

From the fitting bay
to the range
Ferro’s founder continues evaluating Ferro irons outside the fitting bay, observing ball flight, contact and feel in real-world range sessions.
Development Never Stops
We test — We measure
We compare — We refine
R&D at Ferro is an ongoing process.
As we continue testing new designs, components and configurations, we will share more of that development here — including performance data, testing results, prototypes and the decisions behind future Ferro products.
If a change produces a meaningful improvement, it moves forward.
If it doesn’t, it doesn’t.
