Fireball Cinnamon Whisky announced a Fireball Fire Iron in time for Father's Day, and the 5-iron differentiates itself from regular golf equipment by featuring five 50-milliliter Fireball Cinnamon Whisky shooters below the club’s shaft.
Although the brand claims the Fire Iron is better for concealing birdie shots and inspiring mid-game fun rather than being used seriously on the green, many golfers will be eager to get their hands on the golf-inspired release regardless.
"Golf is a game about shots – taking them, making them and everything in between," Fireball Cinnamon Whisky Global Brand Director Danny Suich said in a release, "So as the world’s #1 shot brand, we thought we were in a unique position to caddie the game forward and towards a bit more unexpected fun on the course."
