Titleist CNCPT iron range, featuring the new CP-01 and CP-02 irons, coming to retail
Titleist has introduced a brand new iron range CNCPT – which begins with the new CP-01 and CP-02 irons. The irons appeared on social media and in our forums last year, and we got a look at the clubs during the PGA Show, but until now, it was unclear whether the built-without-regard-to-cost clubs would come to retail.
The CP-01 iron is a players distance iron, which features high-density tungsten weighting, averaging more than 100g per head in the lower-lofted irons.
While the CP-02 Iron is a classic blade shape iron and averages more than 110g per head in the lower-lofted irons. The high-density tungsten weighting of both irons seeks to provide golfers with a higher launch, greater distance and the most generous impact possible.
Both sets of irons also contain a Super Metal L-Face Insert made with a super-strong alloy which aims to produce maximum ball speeds off the face of the clubs. According to the company, the alloy faces are the thinnest unsupported faces in golf, and they wrap under the sole, which maximizes the hitting area. Additionally, the face thinness allowed engineers to move discretionary weight throughout the clubs to maximize MOI, much like in a driver, as well as strategically position CG in each club.
Speaking on Titleist’s new CNCPT irons, Kelley Moser Jr., Brand Manager, CNCPT Clubs, stated
“CNCPT is an idea, a promise. It’s our answer to ‘What if?’ What if our R&D engineers could bring their dreams to reality, using materials and processes never before used in golf? We promise to provide them all the resources they need, so that CNCPT will always deliver the ‘wow.’
Those interested in purchasing the irons, which retail for $500 each, can contact Titleist’s CNCPT concierge to schedule a fitting.
Neal Shipley was the first to admit that he enjoyed his food while in college. But since his days at Ohio State, he’s slimmed down and earned a PGA Tour Card.
That hasn’t stopped him from having fun with his wedge stampings, though it’s led to some misunderstandings.
On the 54 (degree), we have ‘Big Fudge,'” Shipley told GolfWRX. “It was supposed to be ‘Big Fridge,’ so this happened a little while ago. ‘Big Fridge’ was a nickname between my college teammates and I, with ‘fridge’ meaning stomach, a big stomach.
“We told the Ping guys to put … ‘Big Fridge’ on it, and I think maybe some bad cell service or something, and they thought I said ‘fudge,’ so they put fudge on it.”
On Shipley’s 50-degree he also continues the food theme, this time with his go-to order at the “Golden Arches,” and his stamping “DONS 7.”
“The number 7 meal, the two cheeseburger meal, that was my McDonald’s order, back when I would have McDonald’s frequently,” Shipley shared.
At GolfWRX, we are a community of like-minded individuals who all experience and express our enjoyment of the game in many ways.
It’s that sense of community that drives day-to-day interactions in the forums on topics that range from best driver to what marker you use to mark your ball. It even allows us to share another thing we all love – buying and selling equipment.
Currently, in our GolfWRX buy/sell/trade (BST) forum, @raw10628 has a L.A.B. DF3 putter and Masters putter cover up for grabs.
From the listing: “Some great items here today, time to thin out and make room for next set of gear. All prices include shipping.
LAB DF3 Purple 33.5” 68° lie with TPT – $725. LAB Masters release DF3 cover – $150.”

Is there literally any other facet of life where people continually line up to pay hundreds, thousands…..for literally no increase in performance. Pissing $$ away.

Also, look up Honma Beres – over $1k per iron. No one is forced to buy them and they are not necessary in any way. Want to complain about pricing – complain about profiteering in prescription drugs. That actually kills people.

The answer of course is simple: if you want companies to stop doing things like this, vote for socialism. Well-run socialism would end unnecessary products and prices.
In the meantime, PXG has proven without any doubt that a market exists for golf clubs in this price range (even if they’re ugly). Why should Titleist ignore the possibility? Wouldn’t they be stupid not to? Wouldn’t their shareholders see missed opportunity? How would their top execs get huge salaries for doing nothing and new yachts every 2 years?
There is an “ultra-premium” price range in almost everything. Clothing, wine, cars, houses, home audio and video systems ($50,000 in audiophile speaker wire, anyone?). This is a natural and obvious progression of capitalism. Apart from JDM clubs, it’s actually kind of funny this hasn’t hit golf long ago – consider what people pay for club memberships, their own golf carts, etc.
The biggest laugh, though, would be to know the actual factory cost of these irons – I assume made in China. I’d bet the markup would be astounding. Meanwhile, Titleist make tons of clubs in the “normal” price range, and eBay overflows with enough used golf equipment to keep equipped the huddled masses yearning for a tee time.

Vote for socialism? This is your answer? The biggest laugh (more like a sad shake of the head) is that you suggested such tripe in the first place!

I can’t believe that Titleist would even think of letting the public see such an ugly club from their company.The terrible part is, its an attempt to match PXG prices.

I don’t have a problem with the price, it’s a concept iron, not meant for general release
No doubt bmw and Aston Martin concept cars are really expensive too

One of those looks like nothing more than a tricked out Titleist T-MB iron.

$500 per club………….I just threw up in my mouth a little. Golf for most equipment is already pretty steep. At those prices I will not worry about them until they show up on the used rack 5 years from now.

New release date: 2040! I like the $50k asking price, but I wouldn’t pay over $42k for ’em!! On the floor crackin’ up! 🙂

I am a Titleist diehard, but I’m not sure what these are about or what they can do better than the AP1, MBT, AP2, CB or MB ???
Totally pointless
Fools and their money are easily parted…

Why stop at $500? Let’s call it $1,200 per club and offer financing. #MoreMoneyThanSense

Agreed, Jeff. I was able to the 02 and their feel should have it’s own adjective.
