A few months back I posted a thread about the Cleveland TA7 irons that I had just purchased. Well, it wasn't long before I sold them to my roommate and began playing my old Titleist AP2's again. I loved the irons (TA7's). Feel was great, but they were just too thick for my taste. I have always preferred the look and feel of a players iron. After a few months back with the AP2's, I decided I wanted to once again try something different. I would consider myself a "digger", so I wanted something that would cut through the ground better than my AP2's. Now that I am playing a lot of golf again, it only made sense that I look at a set of blades.....since that is what I prefer (wish I had kept my Titleist 695 MB's).

I went to the local PGA Superstore and tried a few different irons sets. The final two sets that it came down to were the Taylormade MB's and the Cobra S3 Pro Forged combo set. After a tiring session in the simulator, I decided to go with the Cobra's. They have an amazing feel and look to them. I especially love the short irons being blades.

After a few weeks of playing the combo set, I realized that I was hitting the 7-PW much better than the 3-6 irons. Obviously long irons are more difficult to play, but I felt like I was having the same issue with the CB's that I was having with my AP2's. They weren't cutting through the ground well. I decided to order 3-6 in the blades and went direct through Cobra. They had them to me very quickly and I haven't looked back. I love the long irons as much as the short irons now. I love the workability and trajectory control with these irons more so than any other iron I have ever played. I am finally satisfied with a set of irons.

If anyone is considering a set of blades at the moment, definitely look in to these! Feel free to ask any questions about them. I have a lot of practice and play time with them.

They are definitely the best feeling iron I have hit. Like you said, they have a very soft feel to them.

    • A bit of a struggle today.  Just some thoughts/musings.  For the backswing, it is like I am never going to be moving on from this. I don't know if I can ever get to the point where the backswing isn't like over 1.5 seconds in duration. Which is probably not ideal. I would like to get to the point where I can just fling the arms back and up.  I have to feel like my hands are going to hit my right thigh from P1 to P2. If not then they like to move 2-5 inches towards the ball from P1 to P2. Then it's just bad from there. This feeling is my hands not gaining much depth, just maintaining depth from set up. From the DTL view, the hands head towards the camera.  While I am doing that, hinge the crap out of the club with my wrist only. Hinge in a way that the club is pointing at the camera at P2.  From P2, lift the hands straight up. I can get here, and still roll the club inside and get it way too shallow.  With the downswing. There isn't much here. I still can't get the flow of this or the sequencing of this to line up. It doesn't help that hinging from P1 to P2 just throws off my entire timing as well.
