T200 lookalike

JadonH · August 3

Looking for some wider advice on getting a new set of irons. I'm relatively new to golf (1 year) but have been lesson mad and making some pretty quick gains. Still around a 20HC but expect this to improve over the next year drastically. Problem is, I just don't like my (Callaway Diablo forged) irons...

I went to a Titleist fitting day and thought the T350 would be right for me, surprisingly I hit the T200 better and it felt much nicer. They're just out of my price range. Any suggestions on budget irons similar to T200??

(I don't have many local places where I can go hit all the brands, so I want to narrow it down to one or two before I make the trip out to hit em)

Take a look for t200 in an older model.

What part of the Callaway isn't meshing anymore?

Agree with @GolfSpy_APH about looking for an older model. There are always the equivalents from other manufacturers that may work for you- Taylormade P790 and Mizuno MP225 as examples.

T200s are great clubs and older versions in good condition will last well and be more than capable such that you're the limiting factor unless you're getting close to scratch maybe, or your swing changes such that that other clubs are a better fit.

If you're on a tighter budget and wanted something newer, consiter the direct to consumer brands (albeit you can't test before you buy for some) or buy the Costco equivalents of the P790/ T200 (if Aus Costco sells them). The Kirkland irons get good reviews and seem to perform in the same players' distance/ game improvement iron bracket.
