Details: Dynamic Gold S400, regular length, bent 2 degrees flat, Nike grip.
Purchase: I bought the blades in February after attending thr PGA golf show in Orlando. I bought them from the custom desk at tgw.com. Working with Chris was a pleasure. He made it easy and convenient. I suggest working with him if you buy frm TGW. The cost was $699 for 3-PW. Pros: I really like the thin top line. When over the ball I can visualize contact and the flight of the ball. I'm a big feel player and these clubs have helped immensely. They are extremely easy to shape shots as well as control trajectory. I belive that clubs are a personal thing. I tried just about every blade you can imagine at the golf chow along with every cavity back. These clubs just felt right and were most consistent. Cons: Nothing. Just don't like when I play poorly which is my fault, not the club. Quality: Outstanding. I baby my clubs washing them after every use. They have maintained their shine and look awesome. I've played about 20 rounds since I made the purchase. I've likley hit over 5,000-7,000 balls at the range as well. Review Summary: I've played Tommy Armour 845 and Titleist DCI. This is my 3rd set of clubs and I love them. I've steadily moved from a 21 handicap to an 11 over the span of 7 years. I belive these clubs along with hard work will get me to the goal of becoming a single handicap player. My worst round in the past 20 rounds was an 88. My best round was an 80. The spin along with the controlled trajectory has been fantastic. These are really the first clubs that I've had control over. I've seen some reviews that suggest a loss of distance with these irons. I've found quite the oposite, but I was extremely careful about the shaft selection. That, along with feel and eye attraction are likely the keys behind club selection. I suspect that a beginner or a player over a 15 handicap would not enjoy these clubs. But, if you are a feel player and understand what that means, I would recommend giving these clubs a try.

Purchase: I had a 20+ and I was using the Nike Pro Combo irons for about 6 months when I used a demo blade 6-iron at one of the local driving ranges. I liked them so much I picked up a NEW set on Ebay for $380 shipped from a guy who couldn't hit them. Pros: At first, I was worried about not being able to hit the blades because of my "high" handicap and the misconception that I had an inconsistent swing pattern.
When I received the blades, I went to the driving range and quickly learned that they were just for me - my ball striking was MUCH better and the feel of the blade gave me confidence to swing easy.
Feedback is instant with these irons, as you can tell exactly what you're doing wrong.
Now I'm a consistent 18 or less handicap and suffer from my aim as opposed to the lack of "feel" with my irons. My lowest round so far is an 82 on a 72 par course. Cons: Nothing - I truly love every aspect of these irons. Quality: Nike did everything right with the looks of this iron. They also didn't go wrong with having Mizuno forge them. Excellent feel and head weight. Review Summary: If I ever play another set of blades, it will be the Mizuno's which are extremely close in comparison.
