I love RocketBallz irons by Taylormade. Huge sweet spot.

Shooting mainly in mid to high 90’s

I used to be in your shoes and shoot high 90's. I now usually shoot low 90's, occasionally find my way into the 80's, and flirt with breaking into the 70's about once a year. Getting properly fit for irons really improved my game and helped me become more consistent with my distances and spray patterns with my miss hits.

I'd say look at the game improvement irons. Plan on taking a couple trips to demo clubs (Golf Galaxy, PGA Store, etc.) and figure out what you like from a look and feel standpoint. From there narrow it down to one or two models for a head to head demo/fitting on second visit. I don't like to buy on the initial visit as fatigue usually starts to impact the fitting process once you've demoed 6 different sets and taken 80-100 swings. That second visit can be much more focused and help get things dialed in exactly how you like them before making a purchase.

All that being said, I love my Titleist AP1's. You probably can't go wrong with anything from Taylormade, Ping, or Callaway. If you have money to blow, look at PXG.

Best thing to do is go to a store and hit some clubs. Definitely go for some Game improvement clubs and hit them often. You’ll see results

Define high handicap? Never break 90 or 100? Clubs are usually categorized into Super Game Improvement, Game Improvement, and Player's irons. Search out the Golf Digest buyers guide for clubs/rankings and look at the different categories and their recommendations. Don't buy off the shelf. Go get fitted, they'll help you select the right clubs for your swing.

I recently got new titleist AP1’s; had the original model as well. Consistently hitting the new irons at least 10 yrds further. Solid clubs

I would seriously consider a club fitting. What is best is as much about what works for you as it is your handicap.

Do NOT claim you are "colorblind" in the workplace. 1. DE&I knowledge is now a core leadership competency. Colorblind claims will earn you the reputation of being DEI-ignorant at best & racist at worst. 2. Colorblindness within the context of workplace diversity is an obvious lie. You do NOT want to be painted as an intellectually dishonest leader. 3. Colorblind claims signal that you lack the leadership skills & vocabulary to have key conversations. Ask questions here, in this safe space.
