Addicted2Golf Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 the VAS irons were the first ones that popped into my mind. Many years ago I had a set of those Spalding Executive irons that all looked like hybrids, they were shockers Same here. VAS irons are the ugliest EVER. If I had to pick second place, anything Nike prior to 2008.

jamo Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 Same here. VAS irons are the ugliest EVER. If I had to pick second place, anything Nike prior to 2008. I actually think the Forged Pro Combos are maybe their nicest irons ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin66 Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 OK, let me amend my comment... any Nike shovels prior to 2008. LOL. It is kind of amazing that looks have such an effect on clubs. Like the SuMo irons- a decent design, works good for those it was designed for, but ugly as sin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowballhitter Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Don't forget about the first version of Ping Zing in early 90's - had really ugly toe Palmer had a really odd looking cast iron in the early 90's as well - had fin on back of heel VAS have to be in everyones top 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roho Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 I've always thought the Ping Zings were the ugliist irons ever. The fat top line coupled with the high toe section and dull grey look made me vomit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oldplayer Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 If I'm not mistaken, the VAS were the irons Corey Pavin used when he won US Open. Corey Pavin actually designed them. What was he thinking!! Cobra S2 9.5 with Aldila Voodoo reg. Sonartec SS 3.5 14* with Fuji tour platform. TM V-Steel 18* 5 wood with stock reax stiff shaft. Sonartec HB-001 21* hybrid with graphite design stiff. 4-pw KZG Evolution irons with Rifle 5.0 Flighted. TM rac gap wedge 52/8 with DG wedge flex. Mizuno MPT 10 56* sw with DG wedge flex. Knockoff 2 ball putter. ProV1 or Bridgestone 330RX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowballhitter Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 I forgot about the Jerry Barber shank proof irons of the late 70's - by far bad looking make F2 look asthetically pleasing. Browning 440's of same genre were pretty bad too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oldplayer Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 VAS's may have be fugly, but not many people had anything bad to say about the performance. The main trouble being you would run the risk of extreme nausea to find out if they performed well or not. Cobra S2 9.5 with Aldila Voodoo reg. Sonartec SS 3.5 14* with Fuji tour platform.
