Wilson is clearly aiming for a premium look and feel with the new Aurora 10-piece set. It’s been built from the ground up specifically for women, with a focus on boosting clubhead speed and achieving a higher launch.
While many brands stick to more traditional aesthetics, this feels like a genuine step forward. The combination of high-quality materials and a refined, modern look is clearly designed to give women more confidence on the course. It’s been a while since I’ve put any Wilson clubs to the test, so I was keen to see how they’d stack up against the other best women's golf sets currently on the market.
Driver
My first impression of the Aurora driver was its striking aesthetic. Even though this set is designed specifically for women, there’s no sign of typically feminine colors. Instead, you get a very sophisticated, polished look. The crown is a sleek, glossy black, complemented by gold accents on the face pattern and sole, with a predominantly black shaft to match.
The head cover deserves a mention as well, as the two-tone cream and light brown colorway is striking (officially called Sand, and the material feels like it’ll be easy to keep clean. As for the grip, it’s quite textured. It doesn't have that same tacky, soft feel you get with the XXIO 14 or PING G Le4 driver, but it still felt secure and solid in my hands.
It’s built with a titanium construction and a forged face and comes with 13 degrees of loft. Across the set, there’s an emphasis on lightweight construction, but my first impression at address was that it felt a bit head heavy, especially compared to some of the other best women’s drivers. Of course, feel is entirely subjective, and different women will naturally gravitate toward different weight distributions.
Despite that initial weightiness, which I definitely felt during my takeaway and backswing, its loft made it impressively easy to get the ball airborne. Over a couple of rounds, I did find a decent rhythm off the tee with consistent results. Plus, the sound at impact is lovely, it’s best described as comforting, giving you that stable, solid feedback that lets you know you’ve caught it well.
Fairway Wood And Hybrids
This set includes a 5-wood that shares the same design tech as the driver. Since I’ve already mentioned how much I like the look of the driver, I felt pretty confident stepping onto the fairway with this in my hands. It sits nicely behind the ball, and I really appreciated the small accent on the crown that doubles as a handy alignment aid.
Just like the driver, it did feel a bit weighty at first, and it wasn't exactly effortless to swing from the get-go. But once I settled into a groove, I was rewarded with plenty of solid, high-flying shots that felt powerful off the face.
From the 5-wood, the gapping moves into a 5 and 6-hybrid, designed for an easier launch compared to long irons. Personally, I’ve often struggled with the best women’s hybrids of this number, as I tend to fall into the trap of swinging them like a wood rather than an iron, but I can definitely appreciate their ease of use.
When caught well, these neat-looking clubs are two fantastic options for escaping light rough, and they’ll certainly help many women get the ball airborne from the fairway or provide extra confidence off the tee on a par-3.
Irons
The set includes five irons (7-SW) featuring a deep cavity-back sleek construction. This design is common in the best women’s irons, like TaylorMade’s Kalea Gold and Ping’s G Le3, because it prioritises forgiveness and an easy launch by shifting weight to the sole to create a much larger sweet spot. On the course, they did exactly what they were supposed to - my shots were consistent, they flew high, and even my mishits weren't punished too harshly!
For me, the real stars of the show were the wedge and sand wedge. The extra weight I’d noticed elsewhere in the set actually proved to be a huge positive around the greens. These clubs gave me the confidence to really attack the ball, all while providing that same comforting, stable sound off the face that I enjoyed with the driver.
Putter
The Infinite is a mid-mallet style putter featuring a double-milled face pattern designed to promote a consistent feel and roll. This was my first time using a putter with an oversized grip, and while it took a little while to adjust, it definitely did its job by helping to quiet my hands and reduce excess wrist movement, something I'm definitely prone to.
Putting is an incredibly personal part of the game, but this putter might just become a permanent fixture in my bag. I really liked the pure roll it produced, with the ball consistently rolling toward, or into, the hole.
Cart Bag
When I first caught sight of this package set, I was really impressed by the cart bag. It’s fabulous and looks really luxurious in the same striking colorway as the head covers (also available as a stand bag). It’s also available as a stand bag. There’s a 14-way top, a dedicated putter compartment, and a vast amount of storage space with YKK zippers, the gold standard in the zipper world! Other features include a magnetic velour-lined valuables pocket, a cart strap channel, and a Velcro glove holder, and it’s clear no corners were cut.
From the high-performance clubs right down to the thoughtfully designed bag, the Wilson Aurora is a premium package through and through. Whether you’re just beginning your golf journey or you’re a game-improver looking for a more polished setup, this set is definitely one to keep on your radar.
