So I'm putting together my first set of clubs and this is what I currently have Driver, 5W, 3W, 3H, 4H, 5H. I'm now looking into a set of irons, but I don't know what I still need. Do I get a 4-PW set or do I not need the 4 and 5 iron since I have the hybrids?

5- gap wedge, then a sw! You may find you'll eventually ditch the 5H, So I would go from 5i - pw, and if the set comes with an optional gap wedge? ( most sets do nowadays!) I'd get that too as it will match the weight and feel as the rest of your irons, as for sand wedge, you'll need one, but not necessarily one that comes with the set, you can get really good season old ones at great prices, before choosing a sw though, do some research on the clubs " bounce" and try a few first if possible!

I read in another thread Tommy Armour 845 iron sets are going for around $40 on ebay. Can't get a better iron set for that price.

I'm like the poster child for Tour Edge in a dead zone for them... but I would pick up a set of either Bazooka Max-D45, Bazooka Max-D, or Exotics XCG5 if you did that any way, their may be bigger OEMs with bigger advertising budgets, but their customer service is second-to-none and a limited lifetime warranty cannot beat that... As a regard to your question, I would try to find a set where you can choose your irons... or get a 5-PW, GW, SW set... Are you looking at New or used irons?

    • Day 22: Hit balls with 7-iron using mevo+ to track dispersion. Was out for a long time after work; 86 balls but the first 50+ were 50% swings focusing on top of backswing feel and then just hitting the ball as a psychic reward. Finished with 20 balls close to full speed. Pretty happy with dispersion and also no horrendous misses. I’m chunking my priority piece out into two separate feels, first and more important is the position/balance at top of backswing which is what I was working on. Once I have that engrained I’ll move to transition part. 
    • FWIW I never really had issues with the previous generation of Snells. But… I'm not sure I played them a ton, either.
    • I know Dean Snell designed the original Pro V along with a couple of other brands tour balls.  How exactly does the Snell ball have problems.  Did he change something in the design or is a manufacturing error since he cannot afford the unlimited R&D budgets of the big manufacturers to iron out flaws
    • I've played the Tour in both white and yellow.  They play well and seem to hold up pretty good even when running into trees or cart paths.  Right now, I've been trying them against the Bridgestone Tour B RX ball and I really like both.  The Snell 3.0 looks to be a great update to the issues Snell was running into with the previous generation.
