On 2005-06-06, David Shadrack rated this Cleveland TA7 a 1...(5620)
Purchase: Called a golf shop in Wisconcin who matched an online price of $599.00
Pros: Good feel when hit correctly.
Cons: Three of the eight TA7 sensicore steel shafts have snapped in mid swing. The head and part of the shaft tends to fly down the fairway, much to the amusement of my partners. The first was replaced by Cleveland as they were less than 2 years old. Now, however I am being charged $55.00 for replacement shafts which are not even the original as they have been withdrawn I am told. I can only assume that it is a design flaw.
Quality: Poor construction, steels shafts snap after 2 to 3 years of use. Review Summary: I love Cleveland woods and wedges, but will not be buying anymore irons from them.

Purchase: Cost was around $1000. However, I purchased 3 588 Wedges along with a 1 and 2 iron. Purchased at Golf Galaxy. I had the original 792 VAS clubs and really like them. The only problem with them was the weight. Plus I had them nearly 10 years. My game has detoriated where I needed to keep the offset to help my slice. (Would prefer to get the CG1.) The downside is the workability of the TA 7. The offset is so great you will have a tough time drawing the ball. The TA 7 is lighter club compared to the 792 VAS. However, I play with steel shafts, Dynamic Gold Stiff. The graphite shafts in the 792 VAS injured my elbow so I went back to steel. Plus, steel shafts seem to give a better feel than graphite.
Pros: With what Cleveland calls ""micro cavity" and perimeter weighted, the TA 7 has great forgivness and solid feeling. The feel is extremely solid! When I started I had basically blades and any slight miss hit it hurt and I mean it hurt. I have yet to hurt myself with any miss hits. In fact any slight miss hit feels fairly solid. Overall, very solid and pretty good feel. The combination of Dynamic Gold shafts and Golf Pride Tour wrap midsize grips works well for me.
Cons: Again, the workability is hard to draw the ball. Be prepared to hit the ball straight. Drawing around trees or if a hole demands a draw, these clubs just are not up to the shot.
Quality: Construction is 9 out of 10. The frules need to be glued from time to time. This is probably because I needed 3 degree upright and the Cleveland Tech Van put the clubs together. Review Summary: If you are looking for solid feel, straight hits and don't work the ball these clubs will do an a great job.

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
