Lofts differ on 9 of the 9 clubs the two sets share. A lower point is a stronger loft.

Which should you choose?

The Big Bertha (2014) is the stronger-lofted set — up to 3° stronger than the Big Bertha on matching clubs. Expect longer carry per numbered iron but a flatter descent angle; gapping at the wedge end is where that shows up.
