I'm looking at a new set of irons, as mine are currently over 10 years old.  I'm a High Handicap shooter, and I don't plan on spending gallons of money on irons.

My question is this.  What is the big difference between Rocketballz HL and Rocketblade HP irons.  Both are within my budget.

I know the HL is for High Loft.  HP is for ??  Any difference besides the loft?

Thanks in advance,

WindLaker

So I did some quick research on 4 different sets in the same price range. I picked only the 7 iron...like I said...QUICK.

The HL was 32* loft.  All others were in the 30 to 31-something degree.

Would the increased loft help golfer like me? I plan to hit various sets before buying.

I am a high handicapper too and I picked up the graphite RocketBladez this past summer and I love them.

Both sets are legacy irons: they came out a year or so after the initial model as a no-frills offering, targeted at the sub-$400 price point. Each comes with a standard club mix and a stock steel shaft. Make sure the shaft isn't too light for you.

RBZ HP has more uniform gapping in loft and shaft length, and RBladez HP has longer shafts and heavier swingweight.
