Tommy Armour 845M

Summary:
I am a bit of an equipment junkie, in the last 3 years I have probably bought, tried and sold about 30 different sets of irons of all the Major brands, all bought on Ebay and imported due to the bargains one can get. I was always a "blade" user in my early days but I figured as I got older I would go to more alleged "forgiving" irons as blades have that reputation as "hard to hit". I must have used every set of Mizuno, Titleist, Cleveland, Honma, Nike Irons they have made left handed but I was never ever completely happy. My greatest regret was selling a set of Mizuno TP9's I happily used for about 4 years before going on my iron trek that just wont end, maybe until now. I saw a set of Tommy Armour 845M blades on 3balls on ebay. I then went to this site and was taken aback by the overwhelming glowing positives that have been written about this model by all that have used them, they have that old blade look that I have yearned for, so I bought them for a song. They were in quite "good" condition, not new, but OK. First thing I noticed was the weight in the head, a lot heavier than all of the newer Mizuno and Titleist blades I have tried. I loved it !!! I can feel the head again, I know where it is. I now think that the Major manufacturers of "tour" type irons over the years have made them too light. This model is noticebly heavier in the head. I used them for one round and have got that "feel" back that I have been looking for. NO LOSS OF DISTANCE at all, which I am happy with. Solid contact has that soft buttery feel that I used to remember with my TP9's and not with anything else I have used. They look great at address and inspire confidence. Off centre shots suffer a little but I can live with that. I am back to taking divots again. I can only concur with all the other reviews that are written about this set of irons. I only wish I could get a NEW set somewhere, it is a 2003 model and no longer being made.

Summary:
I bought a brand new set for $249 at a discounter almost two years ago. There is no doubt in my mind that this is the best value in forged irons out there. The club looks impeccable at set-up and feels even better at impact. Distance and trajectory control are remarkable, as is workability.
I've played Mizuno forged irons growing up and was very happy, but this is an even more impressive golf club.

845m silverback irons (tommy armour)

Summary:
I've recently traded in a set of big bertha irons, wanting to get a set of forged irons (wasnt sure which kind). I went to our local golf shop here in town and hit several different types. Ive hit titleist, cleveland, you name it, ive tried it. I saw a set of tommy armour on a used irons rack for 249.99. I'll tell you i hit the 7 iron and i love the feel and the control of it. I bought them and took them out to the golf course and shot a 75 that same day. They say that mizuno makes the best forged (blades) out there i beg to differ. If you see a set, i highly recommend that you hit them they are superb.

Tommy Armour 845m

Summary:
I have been playing golf since I was seven (nearly 20 years) and have been playing to a + handicap for 3 years now. Earlier this year I was at the range when the pro came over with a set of these irons he had just bought. He asked me if I would like to have a hit for ten minutes and my god they are unbelievable irons. I have several sets of irons myself which all cost serious bucks and I have to say I am jealous, if I could find them, I would buy them. My only gripe is that they do notcome with many customisation options, I myself play with tour velvet ribbed grips and extra stiff rifled shafts etc but these cannot be added before purchase so would cost me more in the long run but believe me guys they are definitely worth it. If you can find a set, buy it you would be mad not to and if you find a set but don't want them, let me know because I'll definitely be all over that.
