Summary: Awesome!! It took a couple of rounds and a trips to the range to get used to them because the less you try to hit them a long way, the longer (and staighter) they go. I have almost completely eliminated shanks into the woods or on the wrong fairway, which I was guilty of quite often when I was going for extra distance. I have been playing a lot more which I am sure has just as much to do with my improvement, but even when I first got them it seemed like I didn't have to try as hard to make a good shot. And they look sweet, I thoroughly clean my clubs after every round to keep them happy, and this is coming from a guy who washes his car once after winter.

Summary: wow. over and over i read not to get better clubs until you learn how to play better. i firmly disagree, thanks to these gems! these VERY forgiving clubs helps the beginner gain confidence. they look and feel great, and the Big Bertha 07 460 driver matches up perfectly with the set.
Cons- you will sacrifice distance with the clubs (but i'll take accuracy over distance any day)

Summary: These irons are amazing. I could not believe how forgiving they are. I shaved about 7 strokes off of my round the first time out with them. I read numerous reviews for various clubs before purchasing these. I am very happy with my choice. I would recommend them to anyone.

Summary: i've got to say when i first hit them, they were very forgiving!! i was very impressed!! callaway did a very good job making these. i shot under (by just one)my 6 handicap at my home course with them!!! great club. although these are not clubs to grow on. they help your swing tempo i suppose. not something you would take to win a tournament. actully kinda hard to shape your shots.(theyre not supposed to shape shots anyways). but if your the person going from walmart clubs and a sort-of accomplished player then these would be good if you want an upgrade. but if your going from a cavity back to another i highly suggest a muscle back instead. very good club though!!!
Customer Service: na. didnt need any
Similar Products Used: my 735.cm; mizuno's; x-18; x-20; and mostly every other club out there. (well not the crappy kinds)

Summary: I started playing golf two seasons ago and these are the first decent irons that I've owned. They are not miracle clubs, but they do offer some advantages to golfers like me. They still provide adequate distance even if you don't hit the center of the clubface. I tend to sometimes hit out on the lower toe, and generally get 85% of the distance I would with a clean strike. If you swing over the top, they will slice, if you turn your hands over too fast, they will still hook. Anyone who says their clubs correct slices and hooks is not being honest. However, these are quality clubs that launch the ball high and give minimal distance loss on off-center hits. No club can correct for a badly flawed swing, and if your swing has few flaws, you can use any club that you want. I can't evaluate the shaft as I haven't tried a lot of different models, but I did try a friend's Mizuno MP-32's at the range and they were 10-15 yards longer on solids strikes, but much harder to hit solid.
Customer Service: Never Used
