Ok so I am in the market for a new set of irons and am getting stumped with all the options, so I was wondering what you all think might be a good fit for me. I am 23 years old, 5'9" and 180 lbs and I can generate a good amount of club head speed with my swing, but majority of my shots have a fair amount of fade to them. I play about 3 or 4 times a month and am looking for a solid used set that will help lower my handicap. I have had my eye on a set of Ping G5s but I can't seem to decide.

Any opinions?

In my bag:

Driver: R7 425 9.5*
Woods: I3 5 wood
Hybrid: Baffler DWS 20*Irons: X-12 4-SW

An old set of blades and wooden woods, so you can suffer for a few years like I did starting out. Seriously it depends on your goals, if you want to become very good eventually, or just want to play recreationally you have different criteria. The clubs already mentioned. G-5 more for recreational, I-5 someone better or looking to get better.

I totally agree with getting I5's if you want to start improving your game. I started with I5's at about a 20 handicap or so. I JUST switched to a more blade style iron after 2 solid years with the Pings. You cant go wrong with the I5's. GREAT IRONS.

Thanks for all the input, I am definitely looking to improve my game as much as possible, and really want something that is going to help me do that. I will definitely look into the I5's as they seem to be a common recommendation
