Titleist Review: 704 CB Irons

Manufacturer: Titleist Golf


Details:

Purchase: I purchased these irons (5 thru PW) through my Country Club. I had tried the 6 iron at a demo day at it felt pretty good. I paid $510.00 for the 6 irons.

Pros: Looks and feel.

Cons: I went through the Titleist fitting system to get the correct loft, lie, lenght, and swing weight for these irons. When the arrived they were not swingweighted at D2 but at D7. Felt like swinging a weighted club.

704 CB Quality: Construction and quality of clubs were good except for the swingweight.

Summary: When I contacted Titleist, I was told the clubs were indeed too heavy and to return them to their club repair department. Instead of reshafting them with a lighter shaft, they just bored out the hosel. Now the club head is out of balance. More weight in the toe and less in the heel area make for lots of mishits. Swing weight is still too heavy,D5. Clubs now swing me instead of me swinging the clubs. Contacted Titleist again and was told there was nothing else that they can do for me. Of course they would not refund my money or make another set of irons to my correct swing specs. Their attitude, We got your money so see you later. Deal with the irons yourself. Great way for a huge company to treat it's customers. I will never buy anything from Titleist again.
