Titleist 670

[Stuart]

I was in Toronto last week for business and my buddy convinced me to get a set of irons to keep up there, as I travel there quite a bit. So off we went to Golftown which was having a great sale on Demo clubs. A few of the better sets of Titleist irons (which I tend to favor) still had plastic on the grips and had obviously never been hit. So I tried out the 735's which is the set most like mine (ZB Forged) and then tried out a few other sets. I liked the 735's best and was just about to buy them. But then my buddy holds up the 670's and says why don't you try these. I laughed and said yeah right. I'd never even heard of them. Anyways I ended up hitting the 6 iron, and as I was lining up the shot I was thinking here goes nothing. Pure butter. So i'm thinking that was a fluke, and hit another. Pure butter. They felt so much softer than the 735's that I ended up hitting another dozen shots and walked out of the store with them. We played a round at his club and I liked them so much they are now sitting in my bag at home and I've played two rounds with them so far with happy results. I'm kind of starting to wonder about all these "technological advances" that have been made in irons. The reality is that they were so cheap that if the honeymoon does wear off, its no big deal. But I must admit, I'm shocked at how much I like them.

Yea I've been eyeing the 660s, which are very similar. I agree with you though, forged irons all feel good if you hit the sweet spot, no matter how much you payed for them.
