yeah, why do you think they are so highly sought after, 20 years after they came out? If you look at ebay, the prices they command show their value. They design is still one of the best and easiest to play. Also, look how much they were cloned. If that wasn't a sign of how good they were, I don't know what is.

Better.

I love my old eye2's. One set that I'll likely never replace and make sure to game at least a few times every year.

I have kicked myself more than once for getting rid of my set, circa 1992. The Zings I got after that were good but I wished I'd kept the Eye2s.

Not to be snarky, but if they're so good why do you only use them a few times each year?

So if someone is selling them for 200 locally + someother random things (old school answer putters i think)
and i need a set of irons i should pick these up and get them fitted?

I would, you can't go wrong with them. I have always felt a set of quality used clubs is better than a set of new cheap clubs.

Yeah my friends said not to buy anything new.
They said buy something used and it doesnt matter what, just learn how to hit it and work on your swing as much as possible and it wont really matter.

what do they usually go for? I saw a set at my local thrift store for 40dollars. Should I pick them up and resell them?

I'd play them but im a lefty and they are RH. Orange dot. 3-PW

Tim Herron still plays them on The Tour.
