Summary: These clubs are very good..I am a 12 handicapper and every time from 155 m out
from the the green , I hit the dancing floor. I personally think that Wilson has not capitalised on the technology of these clubs. I am buying the Di11 fat shafts now and I would like to see if these clubs are an improvement on the Deep Red Fat shafts. I tried 20X Callaways,but they are not the same

Summary: I picked up these clubs a number of years ago when I finally decided to get somewhat serious about golf. Distance was never a problem, so I was looking for irons that would seriously help my control and was willing to sacrifice a little distance for it.
I did my research and decided on a set of Wilson Deep Reds. I got them used off of Ebay, and they are lengthened about 1.5 inches longer than standard (I'm 6'5"). They aren't custom fitted by any means, but they are a lot better than my previous set of irons as far as feel at address goes.
These irons accomplished exactly what I wanted them to. I have become much more consistent, especially with my mid irons. I have lost about 5-10 yards off of each club, but as stated before, as a long hitter looking for better control, I was prepared to make that sacrifice.
The clubs definitely feel heavier than any set I've used, which is a quality I like in them. Having played baseball and softball for years, I wanted a little bit heftier of a club.
I'd definitely recommend these for long hitters that need more consistency.

Summary: My deep red fat shafts were my 1st quality set of irons (I learned the game playing with MacGregors). I've hit many irons since getting my wilsons a few years ago, and have not found any that I can hit as straight / far / consistantly. These irons are distinctive and heavy - as long as you're not scared of that, they're well worth the investment!

Summary: I have owned a set of these clubs now for roughly 6yrs and are by far the best set of clubs I have owned. For a number of yrs i played golf without drivers, i felt confident stepping onto a golf course with irons only, and a putter. These clubs are a credit to their creator.

Summary: I saw a minto condition set of these in a shop for $200 and having read the other reviews here decided to buy them. I was not dissapointed.
Pretty much everything that you can read about these in the reviews is true.
I am hitting my shots significantly longer and much more accurately. I find it easy to work the ball and am loving using these clubs.
I have never tried Fat Shaft clubs before but I feel a real confidence in these. The fluid feel inserts really add something to the experience. It is very satisfying hitting the ball with these, a super feel on contact and the clubs are very nicely weighted (I don't like a club that feels too light) and they just seem to fit in the correct slot every time. I have taken a few strokes off my scores in the two months that I've had these, and I'm sure there are a few more to come off as I become more familiar with them.
The ball seems to fly off the face and the trajectory is super.
I love these clubs and would recommend you to give them a try. You will find lots of positive reviews here and I thank all the others who put up posts as they gave me the confidence to make what turned out to be a terrific choice.
