I am in the hunt for new irons as of now. I am a 17ish hcp. but not because of my iron striking. I currently have a set of Tommy Armour 845 Oversized irons. My ball flight is a draw to a rather huge hook. I do have the regular flex shafts, and that paired with the offset on these irons im starting to wonder. I think my swing is fairly solid and my swing speed with a 3 iron is about 100ish, but if I do hit a bad shot it is usually fat or thin. I don't think I have ever hit a slice with an iron. I am currently looking at Titleist 735.CM and 775.CB. I have read the previous posts on both these irons and it really hasn't helped. I am working at a golf course and my be able to get the set at cost whatever that price may be. With both sets being progressive, the 6 irons that I will be demoing will both be fairly similar other than the offset. This is where I'm confused because the major difference is in the short irons.
Once I do decide which irons I get, how do I justify spending $80-120 on rifle shafts (either project x or regular) Everything seems so confusing with these irons.
Not to be long winded but I was wondering if I had to get these irons flattened or more upright, would there be a bend in the hosel or is it a not noticeable change. If I do get the 735's I would most likely get the satin stainless finish. I want my irons to look as nice as possible for as long as possible. I don't really care for the rub marks that chrome irons get on the face and the mild carbon seems to dent fairly easily from bag chatter. If anyone has these irons and is willing to give me any info on either club (even if I didn't ask about it), or even other suggestions I am open minded.
thanks in advance,
