Alien Driving Iron

Summary:
Tough club to get used to, but look out when you do! I can hit this club around 250 yards straight as an arrow when hit correctly. I still have problems with the length of the club and the VERY tiny sweet spot. Somewhat heavy but feels great at impact as long as you hit it well. Feels awful on shots anything less than perfect. Not forgiving in the least. Looks really neat also! I recommend this club to anyone who can't hit woods but can hit long irons.

Summary:
Got the club (used)during a golf swap meet in Nevada bob's. I had nothing to lose spending $20 on it and what a deal. Being a new golfer, I have great difficulty getting the ball airborne especially with the woods. This club soars with a penetrating trajectory. I normally tee of with the perfect golf club (which I also got used) and would average between 180-195 yards on the driving range. The first time I tried to hit the Alien club, I went to about 220 yards. Who needs a driver with this around. One thing is the small sweet spot and the way the clube looks. It gets a little getting used to, but once you get the hang of it, your woods will just be in the bag for esthetics.

Summary:
This club is amazing. I am still getting used to it but when I hit it right the ball just rockets off the clubface straight as an arrow. Distance is 230 to 250 yards. A great altrenative to a driver which I rarely hit without slicing.

Summary:
Good club for the price ($30 USD). It comes in handy as a backup club on those days you have problems with your woods. For me, its hits about 30 yards farther than my 3 iron and relatively straight. I have problems with longer shafts so I choke down a bit on this club for more control. I probably sacrifice a few yards though. I agree with some of the other reviews that the sweet spot is smaller than some of the other driving irons out there, but you get used to hitting with what you have. Overall, it's a good value.

14* with stiff graphite

Summary:
I picked up this club for around $ 45 canadian at a local golf shop. When trying it out at the shop, it felt great, but when I got to hitting it at the range or off the tee during a round, it kept on fading, regardless of how soft or accurately I hit it...The sweet spot is definitely too small. (try bouncing a ball on the club face. The area that would give you the best results are less than 8 percent of the club face)
