Shoots in the 80s
Model Reviewed: Maxfli A10 Tour Limited
Summary: I bought these for £40.00 second hand. previously used Forgan series 1 and Mizuno MX 100s, both sets were custom fitted. I am not a consistant hitter but!. The Maxfli A10s are just as forgiving as the aforementioned. When I do hit the sweet spot the ball travels at least 10 yards further than I normally hit. The flight of the ball is high and straight. The feel of the ball on these clubs is amazing, I think I read somewhere someone described it as buttery, I have to agree. These clubs will help/make you hit the ball straighter. I have spent over £600 on two previous sets of clubs but I would not swap my £40.00 A10s for anything

Summary: After reading the positive reviews, i had to get a set to see it myself.
After a few rounds I must say: WOW!
Beautifull set and they just give you confidence to hit them well...
These(forged)clubs give you the best of both worlds: blades on the short/mid irons and cavity back on the 7 to 3 iron. Because I got them cheap I changed the shafts to grafalloy Prolaunch Blue. Just to experiment a bit.
These are very good clubheads. Soft but crisp and a high flight. The set is very well matched: each iron hits the same distance over and over angain.
long irons forgiving. On mis hits you lose some distance, but it still goes straight. The short blades are very accurate and it feels like throwing darts.
I'm not a consistant ball striker (yet),
but these irons will help me to get there!
If you can find a set, give them a try.
PS I cannot believe someone giving these clubs a quick rating of "1"!
Now they lost some points on average.

Summary: Beautiful set of clubs. Thin topline, easy setup. Crisp but soft, like New Haven pizza.
Softest, butteriest non-forged irons I have ever played. When you sweet an iron all is well with the world - and perimeter weighting makes sweeting a ball easier than with a forged blade.
I had always thought the trade-off was: workability & feel for forgiveness. Somehow MAXFLI got the best of both worlds with these.
Another surprise: the long irons are so easy to hit, great forgiveness. I haven't played a round with anyone since I got these who hits his a Hybrid as high and soft as I hit my MAXFLI A10 Tour Limited 3-iron, and definitely not as straight.
"Oh, you really should be playing a hybrid," says my boss, reaching into his bag to pull out some ADAMS whatever-hybrid with a clubhead that looks like model train. "These go so high and sit soft."
When make our way up to the green I point to the crater of a ball mark 5 yards in front of my ball.
"No need for a hybrid as long as a high, cut 3-iron will stick like a dropped-cat."
Do dropped cats stick? My cat doesn't, when I drop her. I tried it six times.
Oh, you mean a DEAD dropped cat. I get it.
Anyhow...I'm melting with envy that you have this set. As you probably know, there are good players out here who think it may be the best set of irons ever made. I sort of hate your face, but...well, I'll just be big about it and say best of luck to you and your great find.
(Also...of course you're right about New Haven pizza.)

Summary: I have been playing golf for over fourty years. I have had an insane amount of irons sets. Just about everything. MP-14's, 33's, Ping eye2+, I3+ blades, G2's, G5's, Callaway x-12, 14, 18, and 20's to mention a few. I have had the A10's for about a year and played well with them. As usual I got the bug and bought a new set of Titleist 755's since they were on a closeout and felt great on the range. I am back to the A10's. The are longer, feel much better and the faces don't seem to show wear. They are close to a club longer than the 755's. The 755's feel flat out harsh in comparison. Every set of Callaways I have had hit too high and loose distance. The blade irons.. 8 thru pw are so great I wish they had continued that to the 7. My fault is a slider..ok call it a slice. I actually get a slight draw with the 8 thru pw. I have been trying to buy a swing for years. These are as close as I have come. Since going back to them I have shot a 72 and a 73. These may be the best irons I have ever owned. MP-14's and MP-33's are great when you are on but not near as forgiving for me.
Customer Service: Have not used

Summary: I have had my A10's for around 6 years from new. I absolutely love em. Don't be confused with the new lumps of metal they call A10's, these are the 'tour limited'. 3 to 7 are cavity backed which allow for those 'not so sweet' shots then the 8 to sw are blades which are just class you can play any shot you like with these beauties. If Taylor made started making these again to the same spec you'd expect to pay £700 - £800 i will keep these until there's something out there that compares.
