Wanting to purchase some new Irons,Considering Tour Edge Hot Launch,anyone have any feedback on these clubs?

Are you thinking about the C series or the E series? 

I've been known to put an E series 6 iron and 5 iron in my bag on occasion when I'm not hitting the ball work a pile of spit. 

The C series is almost as much help without looking like a hybrid. 

My experience with the Tour Edge Hot Launch Irons has been positive. I would say the only risk is that you may out grow them if you start playing really well. They are giant shovels at the end of a stick. So they are easy to hit, but pretty much one-trick-ponies. The other thing I'd suggest you consider is the C series is great off the fairway or off a mat, but it struggles out of the rough. It is literally just so big it hits every blade of grass and that can slow it down and or turn the head in the rough. The E series on the other hand had a sole that designed to cut through the rough and it actually works quite well off pretty much any lie. 

They aren't designed for feel or workability, they are designed to hit the ball high and straight and they pretty much do what it says on the tin. One caution, if you are a person who doesn't like hybrids, you won't like the E series.

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

I have heard, and read, similar comments.  I have a friend that started golfing last year and bought the E series.  He likes them, but he plays about 5 times a year and is lucky to shoot 120.
