Well only way you will be sure is take them into a pro and ask

Welcome to the forum.Its very hard to tell from pictures mate,my clubs i bought off ebay turned out to be fake,to be honest they play well but the paint on the shafts is virtually gone,the best thing to do is ring Titleist and give then the serial number and they may be able to tell you.Also you could take them to your pro and his trained eye could also give you your answer.

Even a serial number is no guarantee of authenticity. I know that if a set of Callaway irons come through the custom fit centre they wont have a serial number on them. if they get sold on you have a non-serial number but genuine set.

I am no expert but the underscore on the 6I looks a little smaller than mine. Though I do have the older model - as said get a pro to look at them - but TBH if I was a pro I would only give advice if you are known.

Where did you get them from?

 

[welshy247]

i got them from e bay a private seller he assured my they are legit just me being paranoid,anyway just took to clubs to american golf discount and they had a look at them against theyre set and the look feel 100% legit, so a big sigh of relief

That's the problem with buying from eBay, I was looking at a scotty studio 2.4 and researched fake ones and spotty one I was looking at, having not bid and no one else as well they relisted the fake one.

I would always prefer to buy from golfbidder.

I heard that if your worried if your forged irons are fake, get someone to bend them forward and back 3degrees, if its forged it will be fine, if its cast like fakes are it will break!
