Being a golfing dinosaur I have found myself recently losing more & more length. I looked for the most forgiving irons I could find & settled on the current set (see signature). My previous Srixon ZX5s were very much game improvement clubs but the current ones are something else. They are 1½ to 2 clubs longer and are taking a bit of getting used to. Yes, the lofts are strong, the 7 iron is 28.5° & the pitching wedge 43°. However they launch as high as traditionally lofted irons and are therefore so easy to hit. With my old set I found that the 4, 5 & 6 irons were all carrying about the same distance because I had trouble getting them airborne. These, with the lightweight senior shafts, are effortless.
I am going to have an indoor session to discover exactly how far the current clubs are carrying, although I've already got a good idea. Some people might complain about cranked lofts & manufacturers kidding customers but, really, these clubs launch so easily they wouldn't work with traditional lofts. I love them.
