Hi guys,

I'm currently off 18 but i'm confident that will drop pretty soon.

My current irons are several years old, MacGregor MX tour with the accompanying Mc 501 woods.

What i'm looking for is a set of decent forgiving irons that don't have too much of a thick topline. I know I could buy a set of blades but i wouldn't be able to hit them out of my way!

I was thinking along the lines of cleveland cg gold or wilson Ci7. I read all the great reviews of the Di7's but they just look a bit too chunky for my liking.

Does anybody here have any opinions on the above sets or something similar?

Thanking you in advance

I play Cobra IH 3100s and they are the most forgiving set of irons I've ever played. I had Ping Eye2s before and a set of old school Wilson's before that. Best thing to do is find a local golf shop that have the right equipment (such as the ball monitoring and all of that non-sence) and spend some time there with an employee swinging into the net or virtual reality screen to see what feels best for you. My local shop fit the clubs to my swing for free when I was picking out a new set after graduating High School. Hope this helps, GL.

Try out a set of Cobra FP's. I'm a 26 (and falling), but I wanted clubs that were forgiving, but workable. I tried things like G10's and they were just too "chunky" for my tastes. I really like my Cobras.

    • Still working on getting to lead side. Tonight I also tried some skill work with clubface awareness.  Hit foam balls. 
    • To flog this subject even further, if that's even possible, this article from Golf Monthly just appeared today in one of my news feeds. Written by a golf writer in the UK who I never heard of, he's basically saying that there should be only 3-5 rounds from the most recent 20 that should count towards the average and only competitive rounds should count. He claims the erratic scorers would have less of an advantage than they do now. He makes a lot of references to "club golfers" in the UK being the ones who are mostly dissatisfied. https://share.google/qmZZBEoJvOxHxJGil  In my experience with my league where we have golfers with indexes ranging from 5 to 40, looking at the weekly results from the past two years, I can detect no pattern that would substantiate the claim that the current system gives an unfair advantage to either erratic golfers (aren't we all?) or higher handicappers. Apparently though, at least in the UK, this seems to be "a thing."
