Lofts differ on 6 of the 6 clubs the two sets share. A lower point is a stronger loft.

Which should you choose?

The G430 is the stronger-lofted set — up to 5° stronger than the G Le3 on matching clubs. Expect longer carry per numbered iron but a flatter descent angle; gapping at the wedge end is where that shows up.
