Titleist Review: DCI 981 Irons

Manufacturer: Titleist Golf


Details:

Purchase: I purchased these secondhand irons from an E-bayer in the U.K. for an unbelievable 58 pounds!(They retail at over 350 new) I have tried other clubs but felt my game would improve from purchasing a 'quality'set of clubs.I play off about 12 on a really good day.

Pros: I have only used them twice on the local 9-hole 'practise course but can tell already that these are superb build and quality,In the past most of my iron shots have tended to be quite flat and I envied my partners 'lofted' approach shots and stopping ability but no more!I can put less effort into my shots being more relaxed for a lovely lofted drop and stop into the greens.

Cons: I know I've only used them a couple of times but I can honestly think of no vices whatsoever!!

DCI 981 Quality: Second to none!The long irons give a rising penetrating shot (just like the pro's)while the short irons are high and straight enabling a shot at the flag every time.They feel slightly heavier than other clubs I've tried but this only aids with a smooth steady swing without feeling you really need to smack the ball to get the distance.

Summary: I cannot overstate just how good these clubs are.I feel excited every time I use them my old three iron hardly saw the light of day yet with these clubs each one offers the promise of a shot to remember long after the round has finished. Quite simply if you need an upgrade and I know the choice is endless,if you can lay your hands on a set of these I doubt you would try any others!!!!
