JohnBarry Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 I hit this set yesterday at lunch also, and I have to say, they felt great and I hit the heck out of them. I get a week to demo them at the range and make sure, they are used, and 420.00 and in perfect condition!!!!

Once you buy them, use them, and they depreciate more....let me know....I'd be interested in helping you move them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 They're a nice looking stick aren't they. I'd love a set, but can't justify it at the moment. Hitting my old Maxfli's fine and don't have the cash lying around. I have a revolving WITB policy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh....make no mistake, I don't have the game for them either -- but I'd sure like to have them to play in some casual rounds, just for kicks.

Addicted2Golf Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 Has anybody here purchased gunmetal irons and regretted it? I've always wondered if there is buyers remorse after the finish starts wearing on the face and sole.

I for sure don't have the game for them, but the feedback from the club when hitting a good and bad shot, I think will help me in the long, long, long run!

lmh3 Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 Has anybody here purchased gunmetal irons and regretted it? I've always wondered if there is buyers remorse after the finish starts wearing on the face and sole. I have the Pro Blacks pictured and have had them for a full season already and they are in pretty good shape for a black finished club. I was a little concerned about the finish when I first got them, especially since I hit a lot of golf balls over a season. The soles are still good, a little wear on the leading edges and a little on some of the club faces.
