Hi all - what's the major Difference between 431 and 17-4 steel in a golf head? I mean, I understand the different chemical makeups of steel - but - what difference does it make in a golf head?

In performance - none! If you want a cheap experiment, try one of the Acer XDS Wide Sole irons (17-4) and hit it side-by-side with the Acer XDS Wide Sole II iron (431) with the same shaft, flex, length, etc.

Thanks! I will do that! I appreciate the suggestion!
There's so many different materials, and so many marketing ploys, I'm always amazed how many ways there to skin a cat/shred surlyn off a golf ball.
