I was wondering if anyone has tried any of the direct to consumer iron sets? I love the looks of the Takomo irons but just not sure about buying a set before I try them out

I had Sub70 make me a Utility Iron and couldn’t be happier with club and customer service. 
A friend recently got Takomo 101 irons and likes them. He hasn’t asked if I want to try them yet so not sure how they hit. I’ll let him wear the new off before I ask. 

Cobra One Lengths, odyssey two ball putter, Taylormade Fairway wood, mini driver 3 wood, Cobra driver.

If you go look at past forum tests,  you will see reviews of some of the DTC brands.

In the interest of accuracy, it is more reactionary than a plan.  "oh, that's nice. What do I currently have that I am willing to let go, in order to make this mine?" and then acting on that impulse. In fact, always acting on that impulse. 😁

I've got a big itch to try the LAB putters with a TPT shaft.  I love my DF 2.1 with the stock steel shaft, but I keep hearing/reading that the TPT shaft makes a noticeable difference in performance and helping produce a better stroke.  I may wait until next year so hopefully the price will drop a bit on the used market.  

Driver: :taylormade-small: Stealth 2 Plus, :Fuji: Ventus TR Black Velocore 6X.
3W: :taylormade-small: Sim Max, :accra: FX 2.0 200 M3.
3I-PW: :callaway-small: Rogue ST Pro, :Fuji: Axiom Velocore 105 X.
Wedges: 47*, 51*, 55*, 59*: Edison Forged Wedges, Mitsubishi MMT 125g TX.
Putter: :L.A.B.:  DF 2.1
Current Ball:  2022 Chromesoft X as recommended for me by :ping-small: Ballnamic system (highly recommended).
Previous Balls:  Z-Star Divide, Pro V1, Maxfli Tour, TM TP5 Pix, Pro V1x, Vice Pro Soft, Cut Blue ... (See Why!)
Accessories: Shoes: Asics Gel-Kayano Ace (Greatest golf shoes on the planet). Watch: Garmin Approach S60. Glove: Kirkland Signature.  Bag: MNML. 
Cart: Foresight Sports ForeCaddy Smart Cart (Unofficial Review).

I’m in the same boat! I can’t get new putters out of my head right now and it’s driving me crazy even though I just won one in a raffle last weekend..

I have a cobra rad speed driver, cobra fly z 3 and 5 wood, taylormade m1 irons (5-PW), Top Flite Gamer wedges (52,56,60), and odyssey white ice putter. When I’m playing to keep score I typically play the Maxfli Tour X. When just getting a round in with friends or scrambling I play whatever I might find on the course or might find at the bottom of my bag.

Sell it and buy a new one!  Or just buy the new one and then sell the other one once it arrives.  I don't know anything about that situation....

Option B gets me in trouble because then I have to compare to see which one I actually like better. But B is still my favorite course of action lol

I mean, "unofficial review" 

It's for the betterment of mankind so that others don't have to make the same choices/mistakes.

If I ever win the lottery I’m building golf courses that I own and doing unofficial reviews
