Pros: Titleist finally came up with a club "for serious golfers" without single digit handicaps. Forged club without the forged price. Forgiving cavity back design. Nice stock grips. Love the Nippon Shafts feel/light weight.

Cons: Forged clubs need more attention, will have to have loft/lie checked occasionally, but should be worth it!

804.OS Quality: Great looking clubs. Serious, traditional style. Faces scratch easier than I expected, use to Pings that just don't seem to wear. Don't see how I can go wrong with a forged club made by Titleist.

Summary: Have not played with them yet, but very happy with the feel and ball flight at the range. Mishits are not stingers, but give me enough feedback to know when I have not hit the ball flush. I was looking for a forgiving club without a huge cavity, and have found it in the titleist. I do not have a problem getting the ball airborne and don't need a big cavity with all the weight low in the club. Looking for the 804.OS to give me the more penitrating ball flight I have been searching for, but still have the forgiveness I need when I am not at my best.
