I am in the market for a new set of irons, and have narrowed it down to these two particular brands. Was wondering if anyone had any say in the matter as I have not had a chance to swing these clubs yet.

Any other suggestions are more then welcome, been away from the game for 2 years now so keep that in mind.
In My Bridgestone Stand Bag:

Driver: TM r7 425 TP (8.5*) Stiff
Wood: TM Ti 5 Wood (18*) Stiff
Irons: TM r7 TP Irons (3-PW) RegularGW LW: TM rac Satin TPs ( 52* 56* 60*)Putter: TM Rossa Monza Spider Balls: Bridgestone B330s

I'm surprised that you are looking at only two options and that you have narrowed down your choices without hitting anything yet. I play G10 irons and really love them because I'm quite a horrible player and they are really forgiving. I have tried S9s before (the old model) and was impressed with how easy they were to hit. I haven't hit i10s, but have read that they are more of a "players" club; smaller face, more workable, etc.

If I were you, I would be tracking down demo days and visiting any golf store with a Vector monitor as often as time and my wife allowed and trying out tons of clubs. Before I bought my irons, I was convinced that Big Berthas or X20s were for me. Then I tried the G10s on a whim and fell in love with them. You might be pleasantly surprised!

In my C-130 bag:

Driver: G10 10.5*
3 Wood: Burner
Irons: G10 steel AWT shafts, silver dot, +1" (3-SW)Wedge: cg12 58*Putters: Squareback 2, California Coronado Low score (18 holes): 90Low score (9 holes): 42

    • Current state of the program.  I can only do 25-50% swing speed, probably under 50% since I was hitting the ball out to the 150 yard marker (yay!),  to get the arms down and somewhat turn the body through impact. I mean somewhat. Arms down + body turn don't like to mesh at all. Anything faster and the body does stupid uncoordinated stuff. Mostly, I am stuck in the old pattern of staling the turn and flipping at the ball.  So, until I see progress. I am not posting anything here. 
    • Thanks for the video! Do you think a ball between the arms type of training aid would get me in a better position? I also have a Tour Striker Swing Trainer (PlaneMate-like contraption) if that could be helpful.    
    • There are some little things here and there — the shoulder turn is a bit flat, and the arms move around you a bit too much too. Take a look at this video:
    • I've developed a serious case of the shanks and difficult to control push fades/slices with my irons lately. I used to draw my irons pretty consistently. I currently most draw driver. Also, I don't like how my elbow sometimes pops out from down the line, especially with driver and/or if I'm trying to hit it harder. I can control the elbow a lot better with irons, but quite difficult to have good contact and speed while controling it on driver.
