Hi, I am considering these irons and was curious if anyone has them and what do you think of them? I am a good ball striker that tends to do well with smaller heads, kinda narrows my focus, playing with a 16ist handicap mostly due the the occassional errant shot and sometimes Mickellsonist approach where the greens are calling my name from too far (something I am devoting my time to this year) and my short game (also something i am devoting more time to), anyway there is not much out there for these irons especially lefthanded so kinda hard to try out and so I figured I would reach out and see what if any info was out there among the rest of you. TIA, Frank

I absolutely love them. I picked them up about a month ago and have been very happy. I'm typically right around a 16 and trying to get lower and these hit so much better than my old hand me downs. My old clubs were forged tour Irons so I knew I wanted to get something that wasn't too clunky like the some of the improvement sets but also had some forgiveness. I have the black pearls and not only do they look slick but I like them at address. The tours also come with a stiff shaft which I needed. I know Cleveland doesn't get a lot of love especially when it come to irons but I have been very satisfied so far. I would certainly consider them.

Thanks for the reply Green B. I decided to give them a try, surprised there is not more info out there on them as they are a good looking iron that seem to have what it takes, hope to have half the success that you have had and I'll be happy.

One of the more user-friendly Tour irons around. Just make sure you get a shaft that matches your swing.

A Cleveland rep I've know for awhile recommended them for seniors with good swingspeed. He said people who started playing blades back in the 1970s have good hand action, and could square up the low-offset clubfaces easy - as long as they use lightweight shafts.

The CG16 Tours I tried have the same solid feel of my Callaway X20 Tours, which I play.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.

      Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026.

      Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?

      Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
