How many sets of irons have you owned ?

[Mungoscorner]

I've been playing for 11 years,in that time i've had

Regal Ping Eye 2 clones.
King Cobra oversize
Maxfli Revolution (Blacks)
Maxfli A10 combo's
Taylor Made RAC TP combo's

 

[MegaSteve]

Started playing in the mid/late 80's with a set of s/hand Lynx Predators...
Traded them in for a set of Tommy Armour 845's which some bugger nicked...
Insurance payout wasn't as good as I hoped so 'made do' with some Hippos next which for a budget club were far better than I expected...
Traded those in for a set of Mizuno MX100's when they came out which I just did not get on with...
Sold those on e-bay and got myself a set of Cobra SZ's which, currently, are doing me nicely...

Think if I hadn't had my Tommy Armours nicked they'd have still been in my bag...

 

[Wayman]

5 sets in 7 years

 

[brendy]

Mizuno kids set when i was 7 or 8.

Got these while in my teens and got down to 6.

Callaway X12's from US with stiff graphite shafts
Mizuno T-Zoid Pro II Stiff shafts

Gave the game up for 6 years then:

Maxfli revolutions Black Dot (didnt work out though they are a lovely club)
TM RAC LT2 irons with stiff rifle shafts, great clubs.
Titleist AP2 S300 shafts, current and still loving them, would only change up for something special.

 

[RGDave]

um....some old blades.....

then, roughly in order

Mizuno (cavity ones?)
Tommy Armour 845 Silver Scot
Mizuno TPs (not a good idea)
Mizuno T-zoids (horrible, cheap and nasty)
MacGregor V-foil 455 - excellent (only they were stiff)
Mizuno MX-900s
Callaway X-18

7 sets then. I still have 3.

No Taylor Made, Titleist or Ping in there.........

Surprised you didn't get on with the Maxfli's Brendy,what was the problem with them ?
If i could get my hands on a brand new set with S300's in,i'd put them in my bag tomorrow,i couldn't fault them,and i began playing with them off a 19 handicap.Very good blend of playability and forgiveness.What a shame the brand is now synonymous with entry level tat.

 

[timchump]

2 sets in 15 years

Lynx paralax
Mizuno MP60


I'm waiting until the updated variant on the mp53 comes out before i upgrade

 

[Toad]

First set were really old blades with fake wood effect shafts bugger to hit and looked hideous but played with these for a good while.
A set of McGreggor Tourney RMT2's were next followed quickly by a set of Howsens, then went back to a newer set of McGreggors.
Next was Nike NDS, then Titleist AP1's, now on Mizuno MP53's.

I had a few demo rounds with a set years and years ago and loved them, I think my swing was in a bad place when I restarted the game even though I rejoined after a 6 year gap straight back in with a h/cap of 6. Over the next two and a bit years it ballooned to 9.7 including using them and then the lovely RAC LT 2's. I was hitting them ok on and off, my driving was a bit loose too and no amount of scrambling was saving me.
Then along came the AP2's fresh from Michael Bannon at a price I just couldn't resist and I am back down to 7.6 now (did get back to 7 briefly then the 36hole club champs happened, last 18 holes were poor).
I would like to have a hit with them again now just to prove to myself that it was my swing that wasnt doing them justice and not vice versa.

been playing 3 years and had 3 sets. Old set of Wilsons, mizuno mx 200's (which i loved) but then got custom fit for my Pings about 18 months ago. Never looked back..... and i am under 35 yrs old ......

 

[JACKO11]

Started out this time last year with an ancient set of Howsons, upgraded to a Wilson Hybrid Combo set around May time but have just splurged on some Nike Full Cavitys in the sales, so technically 3 in a year.

But I'm not planning on changing again any time soon!
