BRIDGESTONE J36 FORGED COMBO

Summary:
Great set. With the shaft project x 5.0 is the best feeling in both sensitivity and adjustment in the distance.
Excellent long irons. Precise 6,7 and 8 irons. Exceptional short irons.
The ball comes out clean and perfect.
Perfect for medium to low handicap, seeking to get off yet.

Bridgestone J36 Pocket Cavity

Summary:
After much thought, I decided to go for the Bridgestone J36 Pocket Cavity back irons 3 - PW. Played today and shot a 74 first time out. The Irons are terrific, very usable and easy to hit. The feel is where I noticed the difference. Really incredible how much information gets back through the club head to hand, thus promoting distance judgement. The shaft I chose was the Project X 5, which is pretty flexible albeit not whippy at all. I bought the set from the states and had them shipped into the UK, the company I used also gave me a free Bridgestone Cart bag with the purchase. I am not one for discussing price, but on this occassion I have to say I did well, paying less than half the price had I bought them from the UK.
In summary, get yourself a set and see what quality Bridgestone will bring to your game.

Customer Service:
Top notch, total gent.

Bridgestone J33 Combo Irons

Summary:
I have played six rounds and have had several more trips to the range since purchasing these irons new for $300.00. Due to the combo design of this set, I will break this review down into the following three segments.

3-5 irons: These irons are easy to hit. Previously, I have used hybrids to replace my 3 and 4 irons. Not anymore. I have been pleased with the overall feel and distance of these irons. However, I am most pleased with their lower and more piercing trajectory. Since I play in an area where the winds can really get blowing pretty hard, I had been looking to lower and control my ball flight with my longer irons/hybrids. These irons have allow me to do just that. These ease of hitting these irons well was by far the biggest and most pleasant surprise in the set.

6-7 irons: Nothing spectacular here. These irons are solid performers, but there are no outstanding features that would distinguish them from other 6 and 7 irons in other sets I have hit.

8-PW: This is where this iron set shines. The 8-PW are a MB/blade design. Their feel is excellent, but the trajectory control these irons provide is the best I have experienced. They can be hit low, mid, high, whatever shot is called for, almost at will. Since I am concerned with trajectory control, I am very pleased that these irons provide a greater ability to hit the shot that I want.

It should be noted that the lofts of each iron in this set generally run 2-3 degrees weaker than many of the irons sets available (i.e. 3 iron is 22 deg/PW is 48 deg). Even with the weaker lofts, I have not observed the loss of distance that I originally anticipated.

Customer Service:
No dealings with Bridgestone Customer Service.

Bridgestone J33 Cavity Back Irons

Summary:
I am writing about the Bridgestone J33 Cavity Back irons. I have playing for years, currently with an index of 7.2 hdcp. I have played with numerous irons, from blades to "shovels" (Big Bertha). The J33 Cavity Backs are the best overall irons I have played that has incorporated shotmaking with remarkable forgiveness. The clicks elicited after each stroke is a wonderful sound and feedback. Other irons have been quite harsh, especially using Dynamic Gold S300. The DM S300 on the J33 Cavity Backs are not harsh at all. I am approx one club longer with these J33 Cavity Backs. In fact, I purchased another set just 2 months ago so I can leave one set on Maui at my vacation home. I have tried many other irons at period demo days since and have not duplicated the same responses.

Customer Service:
There has been no occasions to communicate with customer service.
