I have been looking at both.  I hit a friends 2.0 irons recently and they felt a little to oversized to me.   However, I haven't hit R9 but have heard great things on them and can buy a set cheap.   I know Jason Day hit R9 forever ( and still may be hitting them ).

Here is my biggest thing.  I am struggling with hitting my 4,5 and even 6 irons solid.   Been hitting them off the toe quite a bit and with forged irons I am losing a ton of distance.  I am just tired of trying to hit a players club when I need some more forgiveness.  I like the look of the R9 and am leaning that way ( they just look more traditional and better to me ).  But I wanted to see if anyone had any good opinions on this.

Thanks!

I've been playing the R9 TP Irons for just over a year now. I absolutely love the feel of the long irons. The 3 iron is my bailout club. If I'm struggling to find the fairway, I pull that out! I'm a big hitter so the 240 yard 3 iron that I know I can put in the fairway is very comforting.  I tend to struggle with my distance control on the shorter irons but I've been looking to go to forged short irons.

I highly recommend the R9 irons! The clubface seems to be very hot, even on off center hits
