Callaway Paradym X Iron
The Callaway Paradym X Iron earns a top spot for single replacement long irons for ladies because its multi-material construction and high-speed face are tuned for generous ball speed and forgiveness at long distances, and it offers extensive custom-fit options to match ladies' shaft profiles and loft setups. Compared with the rest of the list, Paradym X leans more heavily on raw distance and advanced face engineering, which can justify a slightly higher price for players seeking maximum carry on long irons while still retaining better resale and aftermarket compatibility than some lighter-value alternatives.

TaylorMade Stealth HD Iron
The TaylorMade Stealth HD Iron is positioned as a high-stability, high-launch option for lady single long-iron replacements thanks to its hollow-backed construction and head-shaping that promotes consistency and a draw-bias where needed. Technically it delivers a smooth, controlled flight and strong custom-fitting support; compared with Paradym X it sacrifices a bit of peak ball speed for more workability and feel, and versus ultra-light competitors it provides a sturdier head that many fitter/players prefer for gapping and long-iron confidence.

It’s frequently recommended for players who need help with launch and keeping misses in play."
