The 980F Strong features a slightly smaller profile and a deeper face compared to the 980F for a lower launch and reduced spin producing a flatter trajectory. The 980F Strong benefits the stronger or higher ball speed player seeking trajectory control. The club's neutral weight bias results in a neutral flight tendency while the continuous sole radius improves playability and reduces ground interference. The club head has 2-piece face pull construction. A thin face plate and thinner outer face flange supports the insert for hotter feel and consistent ball speed. The large head and deeper CG produces more dynamic loft and a slightly shorter hosel length lowers CG. A beveled leading edge keeps club from digging and a relieved trailing edge glides through turf. The weight bias is low and deep for easy up ball flight and the bore through hosel provides increased shaft insertion depth for greater tip stability.
