Adams Golf A7 Irons, Set of 8 (Men’s, Left-Handed, 3-PW, UST Axiv Core and True Temper Performance Lite Regular Shaft) To Buy

In the 1990s the Tommy Armour 845s and 855s were the clubs favored by many club members for their design, feel and playability.

The popular ones were the 845 and 855. But if you have a 2 iron in the set with a gold PGA emblem they are something different as the 845 and 855 were cavity backed and didn’t have that.

Most good golf shops will analyze your swing for you and help you choose the best club. Plus they can re-grip them to optimize even further. Choose the ones that feel the most natural.

the x-18s are better for the high handicapper as the larger cavity and wider sole are more forgiving. the r7 are a pretty high range game improvement club that border on a players iron, so for you i think the x-18
but the only true way to tell is to hit them both and compare. if your buying them in store this will be no problem

If you are in the low 90s you should probably consider saving the money and getting some more lessons. When I was learning the game, I played on a set of Kasten Ping I2s from the 1990s and I found that less forgiving older technology will force you to true up your swing and in the end make you a far superior golfer than trying to make up for shortcomings in your swing with new clubs.

The Callaway irons have a lower center of gravity than the TM’s. That’s probably the most important distinction between the club heads. The TM’s likely have a lighter stock shaft and might be more forgiving on toe hits. Don’t underestimate how important it is to get fit for the best clubs for you. Technology can really help you. All that being said, a lot of people like Callaway and for good reason, they’re very well built irons.

They’re both in the “game improvement” category… so they’ll both have slightly thicker toplines and soles, more forgiveness, a higher launch… that sort of thing. It really boils down to how you hit each. The golf shop should let you demo each set (or at least, one iron from each set).

Hit them both. If they feel/behave the same to you, go with which looks best. If you can’t tell which one looks better, go with the cheaper set. Either way, you’ll be getting a good set of irons.

Iron weights don’t change from brand to brand, at least any more than a few grams or the weight of a sheet of paper.

You might check out Adams Golf, but most manufacturers today typically sell their better quality iron sets starting at the 3i (4i in some cases), and then it’s up to you to do like the rest of us and use the hybrids you’ve got and stick the long irons you don’t use in the closet.

please look at the bridgestone irons. the j36 offers iron combinations available from combos to pocket cavities to cavity backs to blades. so an iron set can be mixed up with different combinations of your preference. hope this helps. good luck!

Go with the callaway diablo edge. They have a wide sole but the weight is just right with the graphite shaft.

adams golf seems to have really good iron/hybrid sets, they have different sets for different skill levels

I played the Adams, and they are average in my opinion. I hit the Mizuno MX100 and loved it, only issue is it comes in a 4 and 5 hybrid rather than 3-4 hybrid, but for the better quality you will get with Mizuno it would be worth looking at for sure. Also, if you swing the 6 and up irons they aren’t nearly as wide soled as some of the Nike clubs I have hit. You also get better feedback from these clubs. I like the Diablo second behind the Mizuno, but I think they also have 4-5 hybrid combo. Good luck, hope you find something that works for you!

Is the 5-iron bent?

There are several web-sites that will give you a “value”. Maybe check EBAY to see ehat people are paying for them. Probably the best place to sell them too. Are you getting rid of them because of the latest Tiger BS or are you changing them for better reasons.

I have to laugh at how judemental we are with people like Tiger. I think if you were to take all of the men under the age of 30, give them a billion dollars, I bet a whole lot of them would get in to trouble.
Does that excuse Tiger, no……But seriously, I think 1 in 4 men cheat. He is going to have to write some big checks for this and then maybe he will grow up a bit more.

You should also try a pawn shop. When the economy took a drive many of the pawn shops received merchandise that was of a higher quality than normal. You might get lucky and find a decent set.
