TaylorMade R5 XL Irons

[tyrath25]

I just purchased a set of TaylorMade R5 XL Irons, stiff shaft and was wondering if there was any information anyone out there could provide me with. I've read that plenty of people like them, and I like them so far after demo-ing them for about an hour. I've only been playing for maybe 4 months now, but I'm obsessed and serious about getting as good as I can and I know that the right equipment is essential. (My first set of irons was from rawlings...yes, the baseball company. this is a huge improvement.) Thanks!

Hi, I'm assuming you bought that set at your local Dicks Sporting Goods. The R5 XL is made by Taylor Made especially for Dicks (almost a private label club). They are equivelant to that of the Rac HT or Rac OS irons, and are a very forgiving game improvement iron. What are the specific questions that you have? I work @ Dicks Sporting Goods, so if there is information I don't know off the top of my head, I can ask about it and will relay the information. For your first set, you made a good choice. I hope they serve you well and lower your scores. :)
