I am considering new irons to replace my ACER XK that I bought last year...  There are 2 main reasons for this decision.  1. I was told that my ACERs cannot be adjusted to the 2.25* flat that PiNG recommends and 2.  I ordered my irons 1" short and I now realize that was a bit drastic...  anyhow I am considering the G5 irons but I am not sure if a club that came out 7 years ago is worth the money... any thoughts would be appreciated.

I can get the g5s for $350


Depends on how much you can get them for.

 913 D2 8.5* with V2 66g stiff shaft

 910F 14.25 with Diamana stiff shaft

 i20 17, 20, and 23 hybrid 

 AP2 712 5-PW with Dynamic Gold S300 shaft

 54 and 60

 D66

 Tournament Edition 1600

 

 


If they're in good shape, they're not all that different than the current ones.

In my bag:

Driver: Titleist TSi3 | 15º 3-Wood: Ping G410 | 17º 2-Hybrid: Ping G410 | 19º 3-Iron: TaylorMade GAPR Lo |4-PW Irons: Nike VR Pro Combo | 54º SW, 60º LW: Titleist Vokey SM8 | Putter: Odyssey Toulon Las Vegas H7

That's not horrible. If they work for you I'd say go with 'em.

There is barely any difference between the G5s and the G15s or G20s.  Several years ago (2006 maybe) I believe the G5s were rated the top game improvement club on the market.  So if you've been fitted and know exactly what you're looking for, they would be a safe bet from a bang for the buck perspective.

Good luck!

    • Day 137 - 2025-02-14 Hit about fifteen balls on the full swing stuff. Wasn't feeling particularly "in" on that stuff today, so… hit about 50 chips. Forward first.
    • I saw this today and stroked 4 15 foot putts dead center.  Callaway’s answer to the LAB didn’t disappoint in looks as well as a $299 price point. It’s an awkward look for me, the LAB.  The #7 looked better but still not completely a favorite look to me.  More normal than the LAB being a #7.  Each putt rolled effortlessly on the intended line.  I can myself looking for one at the CPO Black Friday Sale this year.  
    • @DaveP043, thank you for the tip!   Rick
    • I suggest that you differentiate between 'advice' and 'information'. The latter (above) are information. There is a pond to the left behind those trees is information. Hit well right, there is a pond to the left behind those trees is advice.  
    • Yeah, I probably should add something like, "don't give advice on how to hit a shot that's unusual due to the stance, lie, or wind conditions.
