Review of the Wilson Dino Power and Dino Power Max Irons (2025)
A mid-handicap golfer tested the new Wilson Dino Power and Dino Power Max irons, offering an honest and unfiltered review of their looks, feel, and performance.
First Impressions & Unboxing
- The golfer currently plays Stealth Irons, making them a good comparison for the test.
- He prefers irons with a bigger head size for confidence at address.
- While some golfers prioritize sleek-looking irons, he values performance over aesthetics.
Dino Power Max Irons (Game Improvement Model)
- First Look: The Max model appears chunkier, with a thicker sole, and more offset to prevent shots from missing to the right.
- Performance:
- 9-iron carried 121–123 yards, slightly shorter than his current iron (130–135 yards).
- 7-iron carried 147–154 yards.
- 5-iron carried 161–182 yards.
- Higher launch than expected, offering good forgiveness.
- Feel & Sound:
- Felt slightly harder off the face.
- Sound was louder and could be overwhelming indoors.
- Despite the bulkier look, the performance was consistent and confidence-inspiring.
✅ Rating: 8.5/10
❌ Deduction due to harder feel and louder sound.
Dino Power Irons (More Sleek, Player-Oriented)
- First Look: Smaller blade, thinner top line, and cleaner aesthetics.
- Performance:
- 9-iron carried 134–146 yards.
- 7-iron carried 138–166 yards (slightly inconsistent due to mis-hits).
- 5-iron carried 166 yards on a well-struck shot.
- Feel & Sound:
- Felt softer and sounded better than the Max model.
- Provided more control and shot-shaping ability.
- Not as forgiving as the Max, but better suited for improvement.
✅ Rating: 9/10
🔹 Preferred over the Max model for long-term improvement.
🔹 Better for shaping shots and more consistent performance.
Final Verdict
- Max Model: Best for higher handicap players who need forgiveness and high launch.
- Standard Dino Power Model: Better for lower handicaps looking for more control.
- Both irons were high-performing, but the player preferred the standard model for its sleeker look and versatility.
