Strength:

The CG1 irons feature a classic blade design, appealing to golfers who prefer a compact and traditional look at address. Blade irons typically offer precision and workability but require a higher level of skill to consistently strike. by tstoto

Gradually got them working. Second time on the driving range, disaster. So, off to the course and WOW! What a difference! These clubs are tremendous. I have never hit anything that goes this straight. Jackson truck oil change

First off I guess this review will be slightly biased to being favourable for the following reason. I bought these clubs for £50 on ebay 3 days ago. they arrived yesterday and today I took them straight onto the course having never hit them, to play in competition. Hole 11, 166 yard Par 3 over water to green, 9 iron. I hit the perfect shot and the ball flew exactly where I wanted to to allow the green contours to run the ball to the hole. It checked, rolled and slid perfectly into the hole. I've been playing for 34 years and its my first ever ace. So part of this review is me really just taking the chance to record the fact somewhere online for the sake of it, the other reason is that if your after a set of blades then I wouldn't look much further than these. I have probably in the past 2-3 years been through a good 30-40 sets of irons. Ive hit virtually all the brands, and all their 'players' type blades or forged irons. These are up there with the very best. The heads feel to me quite heavy, fitted with an S300 shaft, and you can really feel the club head through the swing. They are a muscleback iron, and you can feel the benefit. I play off 5 and shot 2 over gross today, the hole in one obviously helped but I hit 83% of greens in reg. The heads are slightly larger than a compact blade (in comparison to my other set of Razr X Prototype irons) but still look great behind the ball and inspire confidence. They offer great feel and workability. It was blowing a gale today and as and when I needed to knock them in low or hold shots up in the wind with extra clubs then they performed great. Shelf appeal is amazing, they look fantastic. All in all a great set of irons that will stay in the bag for a good while. Try them if your after this type of club and second hand you will get a set at a great price. Thanks for reading, hope it helps

Astonishing clubs, these are real game changers. I have tried scores of sets and this set stands out by a mile. Small heads initially scared the hell out of me but minimal offset (i mean virtually none)surprisingly means no shanks, ever!! there is no hozel to shank off, its almost flush, so the hitting area is actually easier to strike. I would agree with previous reviews however, distance is slightly less. PW 110 for me, (Swing speed 95 with driver) 9 125, 8 137, 7 145. 6 152, 5 160, 4 168, 3 175. However distance is irrelevant when the 4 iron fly's like a six and lands just as soft. They just go, exactly where you aim. as a previous review said, draws and fades (on demand) are really nice gentle amounts, no hooks or slices. Distance is consistent - if you have a Bushnell and learn your clubs, hit it on line and wait to see how close you are.
Here's the truth, sometimes these clubs feel "harsh" on shots not very well struck. Whatever you do, don't confuse harsh with unforgiving, there is a major difference. Harsh means you know when you have hit a poor shot (usually a little thin in my case) unforgiving, would mean you are punished for a poor shot and with these it's just amazing, I cant tell you how many "harsh" shots I have hit on par 3s and ended up 6-10 feet from the pin. So there you go, harsh with the CG1s teaches you to not make that mistake again without affecting your round. That said, they are actually more fun to hit than any other club.
Oh and by the way, when you do miss the green (which will not be much) these are real special for chipping up to the pin.
I do actually think these are the best set of clubs ever made. I think an 18 handicap could play with these, they are that good. Club/turf interaction is astonishing with shallow, small divots flipping up just in front of you. Great out of the rough and knock down shots are a dream.
see the list of the clubs I can remember owning/trying and you will understand when I say these are the stand out set of the last 20 years. AWESOME JOB CLEVELAND and thank you for making golf a pleasure.

I bought these a week ago looking for an iron that would give me better control of my golf ball. The Ping i3's I was using would not allow me to hit a small fade or draw. I could hook or slice the heck out of the ball, but subtle draws and fades were darn near impossible. These are the best irons I have ever hit. YES, when you miss hit one, you KNOW it, but my misses with these are still WAY better than with cavity backs. I hit more greens with these, 11 out of 18, than I have in months. Best of all, I got these on ebay, in like new condition, for 120 bucks with the stock stiff shaft and grips. Great sticks.

I have used game improvement irons for a few years.I have played league for a few years and have always been the "last guy to tee off" which means I averaged a 110 and up handicap. Have been a "hacker" for too long. I was frustrated to the point of giving up the game because I am an ex-athlete and am not used to sucking!! After giving away my Titleist 990's, which were hard as heck to hit, I found a used set of cg1 blades. My first round with them was a 105, next round 101, next round 97, next round a 95, and yesterday a 92. Do you need to be a scratch golfer to hit these? Not at all, just a steady swing and focus. I never knew cleveland made such nice irons, have always liked their wedges, but you are going to love these things, trust me!! I am no longer the "last guy" on my team, I have moved up four spots on the tee time list. Only thing that changed was the cg1's, you judge for yourself. Oh by the way, got the set for $150!

I just picked up a set of the Cleveland CG1 irons at a golf show. I tested out the Ben Hogan Apex irons, the Titleist 690.MB and these. Honestly, I thought that the 690s felt a lot softer and smoother. This may be on account of the different materials used. The sets were priced the same and the CG1s were in much better shape and so I ended up buying them. I spent approximately 5 hours over the next two days at the driving range hitting these clubs. I will note right away that I normally use a set of Mizuno MX900 GI irons, and will likely continue to play with them for awhile. However, like the poster before me, I do believe the best GI clubs are a set of blades. I learned more over this last weekend hitting the CG1s than I have with the MX900s, simply on account of the feedback I received. Hard to put into words, but when I did something wrong with the CG1s, I knew exactly what I did wrong. It is much more difficult to fine tune your swing with something like the MX900s. Simply put, the CG1s are exactly what I was looking for, a club that will tell me, "hey stupid, don't do that, see what happens when you do." I think for the price that these are going for, they are worth having, if not to play on the course...yet, then to practice with. My swing has improved DRAMATICALLY over this last weekend, and in large part I have these clubs to thank. Good Luck.
