Summary: Started really playing when I got a job at a local country club. My dad belongs to Firestone (home of the Bridgestone Invitational), and has been golfing for well over 40 years. I was a collegiate soccer player, but needed to find a new sport after having a career ending injury. In the 7 months that I have been seriously playing the game, I have gone from shooting 100 to consistently shooting 82-87. I got these clubs from a member at the club I work at for a hundred bucks, and that's not a lie. My dad told me they would be way too hard for me to hit and that I should sell them on ebay. However, after feeling that first truly pure shot, I was hooked. These are great irons and do take some getting used to. When you do get used to them, they are awesome. I would definitely recommend these for someone trying to make their scores lower. Not only the feel is good, but they look awesome and you will definitely get some looks. Enjoy them, I know I am.

Summary: I have been using these irons for about 3 months now and they are the best feeling irons i have even hit. These clubs are probably a lighter feeling club then other blades but the feel on them is awesome. They are more forgiving then mizuno mp-32's that i hit so i ended up getting the nike forged blades. my overall opinion on these blades are that they are the best blades i have hit so far and if your a serious golfer and are looking to improve your game and equipment, i would recommend these Nike Forged Blades.

Summary: I have been playing these irons since 2007 and there are the best irons i have ever purchesed. many people think that blades are the hardest iron to hit, but these irons are very forgiving and feel sooo good. i would have to say that they are the best feeling blades around.

Summary: i just got these irons and i love them. im 16 and i think there better than titleist. i went to a demo day and i hit them side by side and i hit the nike much better and more solid. i really did not hit the titleist solid ever . with the nike i hit it in side of 10 feet (from 170 yards with a 7 iron)33 out of 50 times and only missed the green once, with the titleist i only hit it inside 10 like 15 times and missed the green 11 times.thats just my take from a younger prospective.
Summary: To be honest, I've never actually hit these clubs, and for good reason--THEY ARE WAY TO LIGHT! One waggle, and I remembered the days long ago when I owned a set of graphite shafted irons. Like the previous reviewer, I find it hard to believe Tiger plays the same version of these clubs found on retail shelves. I've hit light clubs before, and there is a tendency to get sloppy swing habits swinging light weight irons--so I'll just make the assumption Tiger's clubs are heavier(hey, I could be wrong). Anyhow, IMO I think Titleist makes the best blades(Mizuno MP33's are the only equal Mizuno has to Titleist). To be fair, it is difficult to rate these Nike's without hitting them, so I'll be kind and give them a four out of five rating.
