yonex v mass 250 irons

Summary:
bought these irons for £20 off ebay they are mint.. £20 i feel like jesse james!
i read the reviews on here and took note about shaft problems,i have been mindful but i must say i have had no problems and i do take a hefty divot my playing partners say you could bury a dead cat in one! but getting beat every week has obviously made them bitter!
the 250 irons are designed to be all the same weight using tungsten weights which really works well with graphite shaft. These clubs have turned me into a real yonex fan, i must say if i had paid £200 for these clubs i would be pleased but £20. anyway my set are LH 3 to sandwedge. Graphite. nobody will be disappointed if they manage to get a set but be mindful of the shaft i have had no problem at all, others have..
looking for matching LH gap wedge...

Customer Service:
As good as any top quality manufacturer i know i have the lot, callaway,mizuno,taylormade,cobra,adams..
..etc

YONEX V-MASS 250's

Summary:
A follow up to my previous review. Well another 2.8 rounds went into the books and you guessed it another club bit the dust. This time it was my PW where I hit it flush off the first cut of rough on the 15th hole. It was agonizing to look down at my club as the head barely hanging on to the few fibres from the graphite swung in the wind. I took it back into GolfTown and requested a new set of 260's, steel shaft and a straight up trade. Yonex agreed, big surprise!

Customer Service:
Golf Town is the greatest place to buy golf equipment. Very helpful and courteous.

Summary:
I've only had these for a few days, but after two times on the range I can safely say that these irons are very, very nice. The feel of the short irons is great - smooth, soft (when I hit it right), and easy to stick. I'm still trying to get used to the longer irons, but I have the feeling that it's the fault of my swing.

I've had mis-hits and I've turfed it, and the clubs haven't broken yet...if that says anything about the reliability.

Customer Service:
Haven't used it yet...

V-Mass 250 Graphite Stiff shafts

Summary:
First impressions: a little head heavy and pretty heavy for a graphite club. They seem to hit long and were really forgiving. Was initially very happy with them for $400 CDN.

I had read all the reviews after buying the clubs, but still didn't believe that I could break a club. Well, the first trip to the range proved me wrong. On the third swing with the 3 iron, I put the ball 180 and straight. Unfortunately, the club head went with it, about 40 yards: it was straight though, if that's any consolation.

My swing speed is about 85mph; just borderline stiff shaft speed. So the clubs are not reliable. I wound up exchanging them for a set of Hogan Apex Edges - a much lighter and stronger set of clubs.

Stay away from these clubs - I'm pretty sure that the v-mass 260s and 350s have corrected this problem.

Customer Service:
Golftown was great. I told them about the problem and they didn't just warranty it for me, they let me exchange for a completely new set. I get the feeling they knew about the club defects.
