Description The Wilson Staff Ci6 iron is targeted directly at the mid-handicapper. It looks and feels like a precision player's instrument but incorporates some of the more forgiving features of the Wilson Staff line. The mid-size head features thin toplines, slight offset and a small undercut cavity. The perfect blend of classic looks and maximum control. An Elastomeric Dampening Layer gives a unique cavity coating which reduces vibration by 1/3. The Wilson Staff Ci6 comes with either Taper Tech Steel Shafts or a Nano-Tech graphite shaft. The steel shaft has a progressive tip design transitions from high tip flexibility in the long irons for higher launch, to a stiff tip in the mid to short irons for a lower launch and maximum control. The graphite shaft is the most consistent graphite shaft ever, with a stable tip for mid to high launch angles.

Summary: First off let me say I have tried every club out there from the best cavity back Callaway clubs. To the newer ping clubs. But I went back to Wilson about four years ago. I have been playing for about 24 years. My first set of clubs were the Wilson LT 1200s I love them. The ci6's is one of the best clubs still on the market today. Get yourself fitted by your local golf store our golf professional. It is really the only way that you will get better at the game. The guy from Wilson came and watched me swing about 3 to 400 golf balls. My clubs are perfectly fitted for me. I'm a 12 handicap golfer. And I absolutely love the way I can work the ball with these Wilson Ci6's, great ball flight, and stopping power on the greens is a must.
Customer Service: Wilson probably the biggest name in sports. And sporting equipment. I have had absolutely no problems with my clubs but I have to say when I was being fitted by the Wilson rep from Chicago. He treated me like a king, like I was his only customer in the world.
Similar Products Used: I played the Callaway X-12 Irons for about eight years. I really can't say too many bad things about them. I also played the Ping G2 in the green dot. Have to say I was not impressed.

Summary: I noticed these on sale at the PGA Tour Superstore here in Plano, TX. I was having trouble with my existing iron play and was struggling. I wanted something inexpensive, but something I could hit with some consistency. I tried these on the launch monitor (steel, True Temper Taper Tech CL R flex) and even though I typically play a stiff shaft, these felt good and according to the launch monitor, were about as consistently straight for me of any iron I've ever hit. They are long, and the dispersion area is quite tight. Excellent feel. 4-PW set. I bought them, hoping that the in-store feel was true on the course. Luckily, it was. After playing 3 or 4 rounds with them, I find these to be my favorite irons to date. Excellent feel, great distance, and they instill a lot of confidence. I shot my best round in three years with these on the third outing. They may not be expensive, and may not be the latest technology, but they flat work for me. I have had several sets of irons in the past two years. I even hit the 4 iron pretty well. I could never find the right ones. Now I have.
Customer Service: No experience - have not needed them.
Similar Products Used: TaylorMade rac HT (uniflex steel - always pushed to the right slightly but overall very good irons), Tour Edge Bazooka QL (stiff steel - wide soles don't agree with my swing - loved the 3 & 4 hybrids - hit it fat frequently with the irons), Mizuno MX 19 (bought used, stiff steel TT Dynalite Gold SL - +1" - always went left even choking up, tendency to hit fat - another wide sole), Adams A3 (stiff steel, struggled with hybrids 3-5 going right - 6-P irons were OK but inconsistent distances).
Summary: Decided to go back to steel shafts after several years of using graphite and purchased the Ci9's early this spring. My handicap has since dropped several strokes, but that may also be due to having the clubs fitted. D2 Swingweight takes some getting used to, but they do look very appealing at address and you know immediately if you've hit the ball well or not. Be sure to have these clubs fitted to your swing or they will have a very long learning curve.
Customer Service: Haven't need them yet.

Summary: Well I have played many great clubs and so far I am sticking with Wilson. I have gone to the Sacramento golf expo at Haggin Oaks and I still will choose the Ci6 s over most others. I will miss these clubs as I am replacing them with the Ci9 or the course of the next few months, but I am excited to keep with the Wilson name.
Customer Service: Broke a club, customer service was awesome with their help and had it replaced.

Summary: This is the first cavity back I have owned. I was formally a blade user in my younger years, but since I have just recently gotten back in the game in my 40's the last couple of years, I found I needed some forgiveness. No regrets at all with these irons. I love the trajectories (no ballooning)and hit out of a variety of lies quite easily. Not bulky looking which I like, and with just the right amount of forgiveness to not compromise working the ball. Long irons 3 and 4 are easy and accurate for me. The regular taper tech shafts and iron head combination are ideal for me. I tried the Ci9 (latest version)and like the feel of the of the Ci6 irons far better. These will stay in my bag for a while.
