they're on the site... just go take a look...

I personally thought they were a bit on the busy/cluttered side, but I like a clean club. Snake eyes are good clubs usually, and I'm sure these are nice, but I couldn't get them based on the looks.
My Clubs: Callaway FT-i Tour LCG 9.5° w/ Matrix Ozik Xcon 6 stiff; Sonartec GS Tour 14° w/ Graphite Design Red Ice 70 stiff; Adams Idea Pro 2h(18°) & 3h(20°) w/ Aldila VS Proto 80 stiff; Adams Idea Pro Forged 4-PW w/ TT Black Gold stiff; Cleveland CG12 DSG RTG 52°-10° & 58°-10°; Odyssey...

I'd remove that paint fill and they'd look fine. Out of My price range for now tho'.

Here Here. I agree. I took a look at them yesterday while waiting. I have no experience with Snake Eyes. I bought a Viper XT 3 Hybrid head. Has anyone played this? How about Snake Eyes fairway wood/hybrid heads in general? Also, I could put together a new set of the 685s if the looks could be altered a little. Has anyone played the 685s yet?

What's in the bag...

I was thinking of trying some out but then I looked at the lofts and they were too strong for my liking. A little too busy in the graphics but a good looking iron none the less. Snake eyes are good clubs.

You don't lose anything quality wise with Snake Eyes and they're probably better on their tolerances than most of the OEM's.

The 685x's have been on Golfsmith for a while, but I know they are coming out with a 685 cast iron head in June. I'm assuming that is what he is referring to, anyone have pics of those yet?

How would you guys compare these snake eye's to main stream brand's ?
