Rory McIlroy is undisputedly one of the finest golfers in history, a status that was only further confirmed by him finally completing the career Grand Slam in winning The Masters at Augusta National.

You might be curious about the clubs he has used along the way to securing that magnificent achievement, and you could even be wondering what it would be like to hit them yourself.

Since he joined TaylorMade in 2017, McIlroy has deployed the custom-built RORS PROTO irons, which, as you would expect, have been carefully engineered to perfectly suit the game of the Northern Irishman – and the results speak for themselves.

RORS PROTO Irons

Golfshake’s Equipment Expert, Ryan Rastall, the PGA Professional at Howley Hall Golf Club in Leeds, was lucky and grateful to receive two sets of RORS PROTO, one designed for him, and the other featuring the same specifications as utilised by the former world number one.

Describing the technology behind the irons, Ryan tests them both indoors on Trackman and out on the golf course, seeing just how they perform and what numbers he can generate from the same clubs used by such a generational player. 

It’s a fun experiment, full of intriguing insights, and you can find out what it’s like to play with Rory’s irons by watching the full video below or directly on YouTube!
