JohnSmalls 5,962 Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 Well these Wilson Staff D7s are starting to win me over week by week. GIRs are on the rise and these are beginning to finally turn into weapons. If I could only get my putter to start behaving again, birdies would be falling. 4 Quote 2020 MGS Hard Rock Challenge SkyCaddie SX400 OGIO Silencer: Followed by Arccos G410+, Tensei Orange Vapor Fly 3, Diamana Blue, Covert 2.0 3H, Kuro Kage Black Wilson D7 Irons 4-GW, Dynamic Gold AMT Glide 52, 56 ES ER2 -ProV1x (left dash) Romans 10:9 Link to post Share on other sites

Ha I would narrow it down to two. One you liked the looks of best and had good numbers and one that gave you the best results and then go back a day hit then head to head. 2 Quote TSi2 Kuro Kage 50g R Flex TSi2 16.5 FW with GD AD IZ 6 Shaft G410 FW 7 Alta CB R flex G410 Hybrid 26 degree Alta CB R Flex T100S/T200 Combo 5-7 T100S 8-P T200 TT Black Oynx R Flex SM7 54.08 F 58.12 K Heppler Tomcast ProV1X Play number 12 Link to post Share on other sites

NiftyNiblick 1,969 Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 The hot new iron now is the "Rustless Precision" from Louisville Golf. I suspect that it might be difficult to be seriously competitve with anything else. These look like the real deal. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Alpinestar217 3 Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 I got the Hogan PTX Pro's right when they came out. I have several sets of irons right now (919 tour/ctaper lite, 718 mb/PX 6.0) - the hogans always find their way into the bag. I really like them. What I find particularly attractive is that even though 7i-4i are hollow-bodied, they retain weaker lofts. Also, the longer irons start to get a smidgen of offset which isn't 100% pleasing to the eye, but are wonderful in play. The ball flight (for me) is everything that I want (got them in KBS tour V Stiff) - high and flat. Distances are 100% predictable. As with any iron, mis-hits really feel terrible and go nowhere, but I seem to notice it more in the Hogans. I've also gamed Z785s which are about as good as an iron can get. I also agree with those saying that if/when the new Wilson CBs come out, they will likely be wonderful. I've hit all the new Titleist and Mizuno stuff (the T100s are spectacular in every way). All of the new Honma stuff is great, too. We're lucky as golfers right now to have so many options, but it certainly makes it tough to pick just one! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kingcscott 795 Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 What about Miura or Sub 70I purchased a set of Miura Baby Blades this summer. Honeymoon is over and we love each other more than ever. Seriously, they are nit forgiving, but they are the best irons i have ever hit. My handicap dropped 3 point since i bought them. (Really 4 points but i went on a trip and played some hard courses and had some bad days. Meh....golf...life). I love these little beauties.

Just curious and I know it depends on each individual player but that said, how did you find the Z785 4/5/6 irons as far as forgivenss? I have a set of ZForged and might be interested in adding the 785 long irons. Of course I can always add my 4/5/6 Forged Tours or P760's but it might nice to have matching irons for both look at address and feel. Quote Driver: TaylorMade SIM Max ...

Of course I can always add my 4/5/6 Forged Tours or P760's but it might nice to have matching irons for both look at address and feel. Yea, I mean they were really great. I had the 965s and mixed up a set for a few rounds. There wasn't much in it as far as looks/blade lengths in the 965s (which seemed to be a larger blade overall) vs 785s. Very minimal difference - very similar look from the top. Forgiveness is exactly what you'd expect - a small increase over a blade, but not bounds of forgiveness. For me, just that tiny bit of extra height in the longer irons on the average shot, maybe a smidgen of help off the toe. My swing has changed (mostly for better) quite a bit, but if I had the 785s weakened a bit, they would be just about perfect right now. You'd definitely feel comfortable over the 785s if you're used to looking down at the Zforged. That would be a pretty slick set of sticks right there. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jayjay0808 1,113 Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 I have to say I have the Cobra King CB/MB in the bag and they have stayed in the bag the longest since my college days. Surprisingly good forgiveness in the MB and the CB are near perfect for the longer irons. Plus the DBM finish really holds up well and when it does start to show some wear its a solid look.
