I just wanted to see what you guys thought of these Irons? I came across a brand new set for a really good deal. They have the Dynamic Gold S300 Stiff shafts in them.

I don't think very many people play them. Not because they're not good, but because they're very specific models and they're usually a bit more pricy and require a lot of digging to find them.

I've never played anything but DG S300 shafts. They're great.

So how are they?

They are great! I seriously am in love with them! I thought I hit the ball good with my other irons, wow these are amazing. The only downfall to these irons are that I am EVEN longer than before! Here are my new distances. I played in VA this past weekend with them ( 2 days after I got them). I shot my best score since I have been back after 6 years. I shot 81 saturday and 80 sunday. I used a 3 iron of the tee since my driver busted. Here are my new distances with these irons. They are on average 20 yards longer than my previous irons. I personally felt like I was way to long before. I will have to purchase a gap wedge now. I have eliminated my 3 wood being as i hit the 3-iron as far as I did my 3-wood and I have ALOT more control with the irons. I even picked up a vokey 60degree with this set.

PW (160) 9 iron (170) 8 iron (180) 7 iron (190) 6 iron (200) 5 iron (210) 4 iron (225) 3 iron (230-250)

Yeah, so if we were playing that card game, I'd be yelling "bullshit" right about now.

20 yards longer than your previous irons? Were your previous irons made out of plastic? Cuz if not...

I will see if I can get in on film during my next lesson. I was playing yonex ADX tours with graphite shafts. I honestly thought they were long. I was trying to tone my distances down with my other clubs, then once I got this I just kind of accepted that I was hitting the ball these distances.

there is a chance, that the lofts of the irons are different by let's say 2 or 3deg vs. the old ones. It still sounds a little streched to get 20 yds

If there are any members in the raleigh area, I can meet them somewhere for a range session and will bring both sets of irons. I was hitting the yonex 9 iron 150 yards . I am hitting the titleist 9 iron 170. The only clubs that stayed the same are the 6 and the 5. I gained around 5 yards on each of those.

Nobody said you're a liar - it's just sounds incredible to gain so much distance... Especially since Yonex's 9irons are 40deg loft and Titleist standard loft for 9i is 43 deg.... if anything you should see decrease of distance. Maybe the graphite shafts you had in the old set was a real crap

Yeah im assuming the shafts had seen MANY MANY better days.

Sounds like a stretch to hit a PW 160

I know, thats what my dad said when I told him. I honestly am swinging VERY VERY smooth and easy. It amazed me too. Here are the titleists specs. I couldnt find the yonex anywhere.

    • It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…
    • I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
