What the differences mean
Every club the two sets share has exactly the same loft, starting with a 33° 7-iron. On paper there is no distance or trajectory difference: with the same swing, a 7-iron from either set should launch and carry about the same. The real differences are in how the heads are built, how they look at address and how they feel at impact, none of which a spec table can show. Lie angles and lengths match as well, so any fitting adjustment made to one set would carry straight over to the other.
The CB24 is a players iron and the MB24 a blade iron, so they sit one step apart on the forgiveness scale. The CB24 is the more forgiving design, with a wider sole, more offset and more perimeter weighting for roughly scratch to 10 handicaps. The MB24 trades some of that for a more compact head, thinner topline and more control over flight and shape, which suits low single-digit handicaps who strike the ball consistently.
The CB24 is listed as one-piece co-forged cavity back with tungsten and CMC inserts and the MB24 as one-piece co-forged differential muscleback with tungsten and CMC inserts. Both use tungsten weighting to lower the centre of gravity and steady the head on off-centre strikes. The MB24's muscle-back shape keeps mass directly behind the strike for feedback and control, where a cavity spreads it to the perimeter for forgiveness.
Both sets were introduced in 2024, so this is a choice between two models from the same lineup rather than an upgrade: Bettinardi designed them to sit side by side for different players.
Which should you choose?
The CB24 and MB24 share the same lofts on every club on file, so the difference is in head construction, feel and forgiveness rather than trajectory.
