Summary: I bought these clubs and have had them for about 1 year now, they are the most forgiving and most powerful clubs on the market in my opinion, when you catch the ball it seems to go forever. I would seriously recommend these clubs to anybody who's handicap is higher than about 5, Im off 1 and strike the ball well so im going for the titleist ap2's for more shot shaping ability

Summary: Changed to these to add a little forgiveness to the game, but got rid of them after about 20 rounds. I found it impossible to work the short irons, play knock down shots or chip around the greens. They are difficult to hit cleanly off tight lies and on links courses.
I have switched to TM RAC TP forged and they suit me better. (I kept the X-18 pro series 2 iron in my bag and it is superb off the tee on short par 4's)
Callaway do make good equipment, I currently use a FT-5 driver and it is a good club, but their range of game improvement irons are terrible, chunky things to be avoided at all cost if you are any kind of decent ball striker
Customer Service: Very good, speced 2-pw with x-100 shafts and the delivery time was excellent
Similar Products Used: MP30 (good clubs), RAC LT's (solid clubs with rifle shafts), Titleist 690 CB's (very good irons, though a little harsh feeling)

Summary: Well originally i bought these clubs to match what i already had with the callaway name. I can already tell you that with just the feel of the weight distribution on the club its solid! Ive tried it out at the range and already see a difference with feel, control, and distance. It has a crisp snap to it when struck on point. These irons is already giving me a 10-15 yard difference in distance. I love this club and it looks really good in your bag!...I think it can help any golfer from the novice to intermidiate level. HANDS DOWN!
Customer Service: Well i bought the set at "SPORTS AUTHORITY" out here in oregon. The customer service is A-1! No joke. I know that this store doesnt specify in golf but they have the product and the people that know what they are talking about. Plus they knocked the price down by $100. Thats always a plus!.

Summary: These clubs are really great, and I got them at an exceptional price (like new condition, 3-PW, dynamic gold steel shafts - $280). I'm about a 5 - 10 handicap, depending on how much I've been playing lately, and have been really impressed with these new sticks. Nice controlled ball flight, and minimal lost distance on toe (stays straight) or heel (gentle fade). Confident looking at address - they might appear bulky at first, but you'll adjust quickly. 5-iron from 210 to 2.5 feet? I'm sold. PW puts nice spin on the ball. Club heads are a bit heavier than average which I love. You won't be disappointed with this!
Customer Service: Bought from callawaypre-owned.com; they have GREAT customer service, deliver on time, and the best deals on sparingly used clubs you can find.
