8 irons tie as the strongest-lofted among Sub 70 irons: Sub 70 699 Pro v2 Irons, Sub 70 699 Pro v3 Irons, Sub 70 699 v2 Irons and 5 more, all at a 30° 7-iron.

median 7-iron loft

All 26 irons with a 7-iron loft are ranked below, along with 9 more lists: weakest-lofted 7-iron, most offset at the 7-iron, least offset at the 7-iron, widest loft range, narrowest loft range, most upright lie, flattest lie, longest, shortest.

Every Sub 70 iron on record, ranked against each other and never against another maker's. A brand cut compares a line with itself: it answers "the most offset iron Ping publishes", and it cannot be read as a claim that one manufacturer out-specs another.

Each figure is ranked from both ends — strongest and weakest, most and least — over the same clubs, and each list counts only the clubs that publish that figure, so the totals differ between them. Loft, lie, offset and bounce are fitting specifications — a stronger loft is a longer-carrying club of the same name, not a better one, and neither end of any list here is the good end. How this is worked out.

Who they are built for

The 32 irons by handicap band — DERIVED from published loft, offset and length by the same classifier the fitting uses, never taken from a maker's marketing copy. A club whose category publishes nothing to read keeps its own row rather than being sorted into a band nobody computed.

Lower is stronger, and a stronger loft is a longer-carrying club of the same name — not a better one, and not a longer set: the 28° 7-iron and the 34° 7-iron are different numbered clubs sold under the same number.
