Purchase: I purchased these Hibore irons from Roger Dunn for $599. I was a little hesitant on it because they all pretty much look like hybrids but I gave it a shot because i was having trouble hitting my irons well and also because I am very comfortable hitting hybrids. Pros: When I went to the driving range, I was very shocked how far i could hit each of the irons. I think it's about 30 yards more for each club. They are all (3-p) easy to hit, HUGE sweet spot. Even when I hit it fat and sometimes thin, it goes way more further than my old irons. I know for sure when I hit the course, it will be no different. These clubs is exactly what I needed right now and makes me look better than I actually am. People at the driving range actually stop and watch me hit. The trajectory and distance is awesome! Cons: At times when i make contact, it seems to be a little loud. Also these clubs takes more space because of the size of the heads. And finally the loft for pitching wedge is only 45. Right now I'm trying to figure out how far i can hit each iron. Quality: The quality is greeeaaat! Review Summary: If you love hitting hybrids and have trouble hitting traditional irons, this iron set is for you! I really love cleveland hibore's and have no regret on purchasing these!

Details: Regular Graphite Shaft
Purchase: Always had problems getting distance and control with my irons, but could hit a hybrid pretty well, so when Cleveland came out with the new Hibore Irons (3-PW), I gave them a try. I have played 4 rounds with them and I hitting them much further, with more accurancy, than I ever have. My score the last 2 games has dropped almost 10 strokes. I went from a 93-94 down to 80-82. What a improvement and I owe it to these new irons. These retail for $699 but I was lucky and got mine for $575 off Ebay. Pros: They are so smooth hitting and they have added 20-30 yards from what I was getting. I had to drop down two clubs (on average)from what I was hitting at 150 yards out. They have a much larger sweet spot (28%) and are very forgiving. Cons: Haven't seen anything I don't like about these yet. Quality: The irons have no welds and are all one piece construction. They come in steel shafts or graphites. Review Summary: If you are having problems with your irons, I would certainly give these a try. They have really improved my game and my distance has really increased. The price is not all that high compared to some of the new irons out. With the 3 hybrid in the set, I have eliminated my fairway 5 wood.

Went to the range yesterday to practice. Took the new 9.5* driver to test it out. I hit it a lot better than I figured I would with that factory insta
