Introducing the Takomo Golf 101T Irons. With golf equipment prices on the rise, a $589 golf iron set is an enticing option.
Takomo Golf is a relatively new direct-to-consumer brand based in Finland, of all places. Appropriately enough, they bring a Scandinavian mindset to their product by, as they say, “ensuring their timeless design encompasses quality and durability without compromising style for every golfer”.
Takomo Golf 101T Irons
The hollow-bodied 101T irons offer enough forgiveness to entice a broad spectrum of mid- to low-handicap golfers. Additional benefits include technology that should produce optimal ball speed numbers and a sleek topline with minimal offset.
We’ve seen the player’s distance hollow-bodied iron become popular over the past few years. Almost every prestigious OEM offers or has offered a player’s distance iron with the promise of being a perfect blend of forgiveness and distance. At just $589, Takomo Golf 101T is an intriguing option.

Takomo Golf’s Mindset
Takomo Golf originated in 2019. Two years later, they produced their first iron, the 101 (101T’s older brother).
Since then, they’ve been hard at work growing their brand. In 2022, they focused on growing their team, expanding infrastructure and adding products. As mentioned, Takomo Golf prides itself on a “Scandinavian mindset” that also focuses on functionality and access. Let’s look a little closer at those two attributes.
Obviously, golf equipment should be functional for every golfer with the perfect balance between beauty and performance. This is how Takomo Golf strives to create timeless, functional golf equipment.
As a DTC brand, Takomo Golf makes it a priority to provide worldwide access to their products and offers global shipping, Doesn’t get more accessible than that.
Takomo Golf: A Snapshot
Takomo Golf offers six different iron set configurations and a wedge. Again, worldwide shipping is available for all their products and an international warranty is available in the country of usage.
This year, we will be testing their 301 CB in our Most Wanted Player’s Iron category.
Time Will Tell, Takomo
It is great to see DTC brands growing in the golf industry, giving golfers a chance to purchase products at a value price.
We’ve tested a lot of DTC manufacturers over the years. We’ve seen some stellar performances. Will Takomo Golf be the next? Time will tell.

Been playing with a set of custom 101Ts which is an option at checkout. This added some lead time, about two months total from order to delivery. I’m enjoying the set but I’m getting back into the game after eight years so take my opinion with a grain of salt. I don’t know if this is part of the customization process but my clubs came installed with what some sort of counterweight in the butt of the shaft under the grips, can’t really install my Arccos sensors properly now. When I emailed Takomo customer service about the weights the reply was “Yes, there might be an extra weight in the butt end of the shafts to balance the swing weight.” Might? Was it part of the customization or not? My customization is +1 length and -2 flat. I’ll play with them until I’m under 100 or they break. Can’t complain at the price, all in all I’m satisfied.
