Hey guys, just recently picked up a set of Scratch EZ-1 Forged Irons 4 - PW. These irons are incredible. They came equipped with KBS Tour stiff shafts and the feel of these sticks is exactly what I've been looking for. My previous set was a set of Taylormade Rocketbladez Tour irons but for some stupid reason I was fitted with X-Stiff shafts and I could never get the feel right because I don't have the club head speed. I traded the Rocketbladez for the Scratch irons straight up and it was the best deal I've made yet. This is going to be a good season. It's my first season with forged irons but I absolutely love the feel when struck pure.

Has anyone else had any experience with Scratch irons? Not just the wedges, I mean an entire set. Just curious about your opinions. I can't wait for the season to start. Don't get me wrong, I loved the Rocketbladez but this was a deal I just couldn't pass up. I love the plain, classy look of the irons as well. Cheers.

I actually didn't know Scratch made iron sets, so I had to look them up. Very attractive irons, I must say.

Keep us updated as you play with them this season, and don't forget to write a review in the Equipment section .

LOL, I was in the process of posting, "hey, gotta have pics when we're talking golf porn!", and then the 'new post' notification popped up and you posted the pics! Thanks. Very nice looking irons.

Yours in earnest, Jason.

Yep, those are my irons. They are a great looking club. They're retailed on their website for $1300!! So I guess I got a good deal. They are excellent clubs and I couldn't be happier with them. I can't wait to get outdoors with them. You can only tell so much at an indoor range and with simulators as well. I need to get to an outdoor range and see the ball in full flight. I know the feel of these irons is exactly what I've been looking for as this is the first time I've gone with a forged iron. I can't believe I've waited this long!!!

    • Thanks but honestly… I don't know any other way. I don't mind being wrong so long as I know where to go from there. I don't like being wrong — I'd love to get things right (which is different than "being right"). I recommend grabbing a furniture slider or a paper plate or something, and doing something like this: First, make a swing where you let your trail foot swing out as you turn, then twist that foot back in. From DL and FO, it'll look like this: Then, during a regular backswing, try to twist your foot in slightly (demonstrated in the left image): You'll notice a crease along the trail side of your hip, your pelvis will "fold" into that thigh (internal rotation of the hip joint), and your "bits" will be squished a little between your pelvis and your thigh. Ben Hogan said once: "At the top of the back swing the groin muscle on the inside of your rt [sic] leg near your right nut will tighten," Hogan wrote. "This subtle feeling of tightness there tells you that you have made the correct move back from the ball." I don't know about that, but you will probably feel something down around that area.
    • Yep. I think it will start to feel even more athletic when we start on the downswing stuff later.  I know, it's just I want to be younger so I have more time to enjoy the changes. 🙂 
    • I need to drop a couple of stone. 🙂 😛    Yep. Yeah, but in the end, it feels more athletic, like you're actually using your legs, yeah? As you know… we use the best available info we have. Like others, I was fooled a little by 2D images for awhile (moving or still). Unlike others, I've learned and grown and moved on since then, while they're still looking at their images (often from lousy camera angles).
    • Day 12 - 2025-12-31 Limited time today, and heavy rains here. 5-10 minutes of mirror work for full swing, working on trail side.
    • Day 2, 12/31/25.  Similar to yesterday (rainy, no surprise), I hit primarily 6-iron full swings with the same focus;  I also hit some chips (about 1/8 swing) with the 54.  About two dozen full swings and an equal number of short shots.  All of this was indoors, off a mat, into a net, real balls.
