Tommy Armour 845C Silverback Golf Irons - Reviews

On 2003-07-28, 14 Stix rated this Tommy Armour 845C Silverback a 5...(1910)



Purchase: Purchased from Golfsmith for $449.00 They price matched a web site quote I brought in. (Golfsmith standard price was $599) I tested all available Forged cavity back clubs and these, to me, are the best on the market.
Pros: Shots soar with high trajectory. Clubs are well weighted and allow the player to shape draws, fades, knockdowns or floaters. The head is slightly larger than a typical players club, but not too big. Very clean / square set up behind the ball. Only slight offset. I feel like I'm going to hit a great shot, well before I start the swing. Wow what a concept! These clubs also provide substantial forgiveness. Toe and heel shots still find the green. You don't need your "A" game everytime to play well, but when you are on, these irons throw darts at the pin.
Cons: My ONLY critique is that the clubs do not offer a tremendous amount of feedback on off sweet spot hits. But then again they don't fly like they were hit of the sweet spot either. It can be your secret. I toed a 4 iron yesterday to a 210 yard pin. We saw it hit the green and I figured I was 20 yards short of the back pin on the front edge. I arrived up to the green and was pin high with my pitch mark 5 feet in front of the ball. Outstanding!
Quality: These irons are the real thing. The carbon steel is soft as butter. Beautiful. The club looks like a traditional blade in the bag. Nice satin, nickel plating. No issue with QC. My set is perfect. Like the Lamkin grips. Over time the heads may ding with the soft steel, but that is to be expected. Dynamic Gold shafts standard. It just dosent get any better than this.

Review Summary: Do not fall for the bad wrap Tommy Armour received over the past several years. That was then, this is NOW. These Silverback irons are outstanding. Best iron in it's class, hands down. Great value also. I tested all on the course and I purchased the 845C. Now, if I can only figure out what to do with all these other sets of clubs I accumulated. I suppose I could start a used club website. Lookout GCE!!
