I recently bought a set of older taylor made irons not really knowing what irons i should buy. After playing several rounds and a few trips to the range i realized that regular flex graphite is definitly not for me (im a bigger guy 5'11 270).

So now i stop in a local pro-shop today and see a set of nike cci irons brand new for 299 in stiff steel.

They are willing to give me $60 for my taylormade set.

What should i do?

In my bag:

Driver: G5
3 wood: Big Bertha Fusion
5 wood: burner Irons: cci cast 4-PW,AWWedge: SV 56*Putter: Ignite 001

So i dropped the cash on the new irons and wow im glad i did. Gained about half a club of distance on each iron and hit them much straighter than my old burners and thios was only with one trip to the range. If anyone can find the cci's on clearence they are a good pick up.

Put that Taylor-made set on ebay. Sounds to me like your getting the shaft only getting 60 for them.

      New Maxfli Forged Irons - $800!

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      I would like to amend my original comment on the new Maxfli irons. Yes, $800 for forged irons is a pretty good price and they do feel good BUT...I have since found out that $800 is only for off the shelf, standard issue clubs with standard lengths, lofts, lies and shafts. Any change made from stock results in huge up-charges so that the final price ends up pretty much the same as similar forged irons from any of the major manufacturers.

      PGA Tour 6 Rule Changes for 2026

      By DaveP043 · Posted

      These were almost all included on the list of Clarifications or revised Model Local Rules released just a few days ago.  I'm pretty sure the first 3 are brand new MLRs (Moved/Wrong Place, Embedded Ball in someone else's pitch mark, Internal OB applies only to tee shot) that the PGA Tour is choosing to use.  The 16.1 Rule (relief near a Putting Green) was revised allowed a Committee to give relief for more than just Immoveable Obstructions, microphone holes would be classed as GUR (a hole made by the maintenance staff).  The replacement club rule was available before, the E-3 (Lift Clean and Place distance) could have been defined as "one scorecard" before, they're just a change in how the PGA choices. Here are the January 1 Clarifications and revised MLRs https://www.usga.org/content/usga/home-page/rules-hub/clarifications-of-the-rules-of-golf.html#cp
