Summary: I did what I always do when a club isn't working anymore: I went to Roger Dunn and tested different clubs. My Callaway Heavenwood, which served me well for four years, suddenly started hooking on me. I worked on the swing, but could not get a consistent result. I tested the Cobra Bafflers, mostly because of the feedback on this site, and found that I liked the feel of the Baffler Pros. I tried the DWS, but the feel was slightly different. I finally settled on the stiff shafts. I wasn't disappointed. On the driving range and on the course, the clubs are amazing. When I hit them right, the ball goes straight. Now I need to figure out the distances. I'll keep the Callaways just in case, but right now the Cobras will stay in the bag.
Customer Service: Roger Dunn always has their 30-day return policy. I've used it before, but not this time.

Summary: Needed a club for the second shot and can not hit a fairway wood. Have had couple of hybrids that worked well but traded them away. Have a local golf shop that has a nearby driving range and will let you try different clubs. Took four #3 hybrids, Callaway, Adams, Nickent and Cobra. The older Cobra was very much better for me, almost as long as my driver and very easy to hit off a tee or ground. I was surprised because I had planned to buy one of the others and picked up the Cobra at the last minute.
Customer Service: Not needed

Summary: I started with the #4 and after one round I knew these were the clubs to have. Struggling to get into the 70's from the low 80's, usually done in by the long second shot with a fairway wood. No longer! I now have the 2, 3, 4,and 5 in the bag with steel shafts. The 2 can be used on lieu of the driver on tight holes and it is long and straight. I can out hit my old 3 wood easily with no effort or tendency to over swing. I hit a great 5 iron and questioned rather I really needed the 5 but purchased it anyways and I am so happy I did. It is quite a bit longer than my 5 iron, higher, softer landing ball flight. Extremely easy to hit due to the dual weighting. Wait till you have a shot from the rough. The DWS will blow through the rough that will turn your 5 iron. Also super for hitting out of fairway bunkers. With the 2, 3, 4 and 5 in the bag I have no need for fairway woods at all. The shorter shafts of the DWS make them easier to hit and control. I can fade these clubs at will. No longer need a 3 or 4 iron either. These clubs are superb off the tee as well. Unbelievable distance and perfectly straight. I think the heaviness of head with the dual weighting and the shorter shaft is beneficial to keeping the swing under control and on the swing plane. The best single club on the market.
Summary: My club pro gave me this to try last week. I was in the rough about 180 yds. out and put it to 10 feet. I was having trouble getting to the longer par 3's and that is now a memory. If you are having issues with your 3 iron, you should run and get this club! It will change your game.
WTH TPings wrote the same review below on the same day. It's as if they were high school students sitting too close together during a quiz.
