Description The rac CGB, which stands for "Center of Gravity Back," features a low and deep center of gravity that helps make possible a remarkable combination of distance, control and forgiveness.
Summary: A really nice set of irons... got my set slightly used for $200, with R flex graphite. I love them, but the R flex is a little weak, which leads to some hooks... they would be darn near perfect if they had S flex shafts, but got a deal, so...
I might have them tipped or try to find a set of S flex shafts, or maybe trade these, but this is a great hitting head... very accurate, soft feel, lots of forgiveness, and one of the easiest irons to hit I have ever tried, and I have tried way too many!
These are about a full club longer than most other older sets, so a AW is advisable.
If you can find a deal on these, pull the trigger!

Summary: I was going to buy the TM r7 XD, but changed my mind over the last minute.
These clubs are nice! perfect.
They are pretty good looking, and they have a great feeling, even on miss-hits.
They are not the longest clubs, (7-iron, about 165-175 yards), but you can control them.

Shoots in the 90s
Model Reviewed: taylor made rac OS2
Summary: I've been playing golf for 5 years now, shooting in the low 100's for about the last two. I recently made the switch from xpc irons to the os2's. I now routinely shoot in the high to mid 90's and just last night shot an 85. I'd love to say that my skill level imroved that much over a 2-3 month period, but who are we kidding. My distance is up at least 15 yards per club, and it's just really hard to hit a terrible shot anymore. I would definitely recommend these clubs.

Shoots in the 70s
Model Reviewed: Taylor Made RAC CGB irons
Summary: got these in mint condition on Ebay for $209.00. I was looking for LT 2 irons but could not pass up the deal on the cgb's. I hit the ball fairly low and the cgb's are advertised as a high flighted club,so I figured "what the heck". The soles are a little thick but they hit the ball great. They are lower lofted than standard irons but they have a much higher ball flight than all my other irons, just as advertised. I'm hitting the 4 and 5 irons longer with a high flight pattern which is great for landing it soft. Wow, more distance but higher flight, what more could you want! My only drawback is that they are slightly closed at address so if you lose shots to the right, these will set up great, but I like a square set up. I have to be careful not to draw the ball too much, not yet sure if I can work a fade with them. They are a definite game improvement club for a mid and high handicapper but they hit the ball so well (long and high) that I will have to keep them for at least a season. I love them. I would recommend them highly....oh yeah, I don't care for the TM grips. don't know why TM has a standard grip that is smooth rubber with no texture to it. they need to completely ditch that line of grips. The inferior grip does not match up with their superior clubs. doesn't make sense to me!
