I'm a 13 handicapper who still plays a set of Wilson Ultra cavity back irons. I'm thinking of changing and would want to invest on the Titleist AP2s, especially since the new ones are coming out so the price will drop. I find myself hitting the ball too high with my cavity backs so I was hoping the AP2s give a more penetrating ball flight.
Would you suggest these irons to someone of my handicap?

I think they'll be OK for you.
Just a thought though, I noticed a lot of people wanting to "invest" in golf clubs, specially irons. What's the investment in buying golf clubs?? It's not like you can sell them for a better price than you got them like you can do with a house (not these days anyway) or a piece of land, or gold.
If you're looking for investment, keep away from golf. Golf is about nothing but wasting your money (and being happy you did). Ask everyone around here.

Eagles: 0
Birdies: 18
Best Round: 89

Upgrading to a "players" iron like the AP2 is a great investment. You may take a step back for the first month or so because your mishits, which you did not notice before, will become frustratingly obvious. However, if you commit to practicing, you will improve and your scores will improve. If you are looking to change your ball flight I would highly recommend getting fitted by someone knowledgeable who can recommend the shaft and flex which best fit you.

Getting new irons is without question an investment. Personally, if better and more expensive equipment can help me accomplish my goals as an athlete, than that is an investment. Conquering your goals and succedding is more tangible than money in my opinion.

I used the word "invest" instead of buy because since i'm a high school student i do consider spending 800 dollars to be an investment.
