Having spent several months changing clubs i have finaly settled on these.
They arrived on Friday and i saved them for my first round today.(i didn't want to hit them off range mats for the first time)
I found them very consistant and forgiving.
It only took a couple of holes and i was clubbing my shots pin high almost every time.
Often clubs that are this forgiving lack,feel but this was not the case.
The ball felt nice on the club face and any miss-hits were detectable.
The thicker top line of the Callaways isn't to everyones taste but personaly i liked them at address.
They gave a feeling of a solid reliable club which inspired confidence.
The finish is very attractive to the eye and i like the classy design on the back.
The top line is matt finish to avoid glare at address.
These clubs are a little heavier than i am used to which slowed my swing and helped to generate a better tempo resulting in more consitant striking.
There is minimal offset which suits becauise i tend to draw the ball.
I opted for custom fit DG S300 shafts,standard length,2 degree upright and they took about 8 days to arrive from order.
The price was £499 for 3-sand and i have ordered a 2 iron at £61
I am tempted to rant about how much i love these clubs but realise that some clubs suit some people and not others.
If you are in the market for a nice solid consistant set of irons them give them a try.
Definately recomended.:)
