My mates King Cobra S9's are uber-forgiving. I tried some Wilson Staff ones which were easy to hit too.

Todays Golfer gave the Wilson Di7's an increadible right up and they are going for £239 in our old favourite American Golf. However, I think there are 5 or 6 sets that are helpful to the improving golfer.

I have looked at them but to be honest I can't stand an oversize clubhead. I used to have a set of Brownings when I first started playing at a club but now oversize just look cumbersome and heavy. On the flip side I don't get any confidence from a blade style club either so for me it has to be a quality cavity back BUT NOT BLOODY COBRA FORGED CB's. But it is true what they say;
Better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all.

The Di7 are a quality set of irons and very forgiving. Also I dont feel they look over sized.
If the price is for 4-sw you will not get a better deal on a forgiving set of irons.
However, the loft takes a while to get used to.

I am in love with my Cleveland CG4 Tours. I am not changing these bad boys for at least TWO years.

I tried out the Orka Kii irons (they actually got a mention in GM this month) and swapped my Di7s for them. Very forgiving but still maintain a good feel.

The TaylorMade CGB's were pretty good when I had a go with them. Probably TM's answer to the Callaways mentioned by MVP. Like the Callaways- uber ££
As I mentioned in an earlier thread the Missus likes The cleveland Hi-bore style hybrid-iron thing. Certainly seemed to get them off the floor more consistantly than with her current irons.
Fair price too.
I like my Ping Raptures as they give a lovely muted click off the face when well struck- but then I would wouldn't I - I bought them.
I'm sure much of it is what style of club you like and what you feel 'fits' you as much as what's good. let's face it , there aren't many rubbish clubs about nowadays. It's basically taste x budget x reputation x feel = new set of shiny irons.
...or something like that

The Ping G5 / G10 irons are really easy to hit.
With the launch of the G10's I have seen some good deals on second hand G5's which would be worth a punt.

why the hell did the put the fat shaft into the DI7 i think they would be miles better with a normal shaft, i prefer the PI7 OR CI7 they look good

The Pi7 + Ci7 are so sexy, however, unless your a 5 or below handicap the Pi7 are not for you and the Ci7 are to bridge the cap between the cavity back easy to hit Di7 and the ultra sexy Pi7.
I like the fat shaft design, they are by far the most powerful clubs ive ever used.

i had the original fat shafts when i first started playing and couldn't settle with them, the look of the shaft was playing with my mind,it wasn't working for me, the di5 clubs were fair, i had them for a few rounds before trading them on another impulse buy

Not my cup of tea but the Taylormade rac OS are easy to hit and they look not too bad.

Personally I think the callaway x18s are very forgiving, used them once when on holiday not expecting to play but ended up sneaking a round in anyway and had to hire some clubs. They're probably the most forgiving clubs i've used anyway, althoguh i'm sure their is better out there.
