wilson ge 1200 cavity back

Summary:
This was the first set of cavity backs I have ever owned..Bought them at a pro shop back in 89' for around 300 bucks and played with them until this year..09'...that is 20 years and had them regripped once back in 99'. Guys I just upgraded to the new Wilson di7's and they are just as amazing..they have great feel and the ball fust seems to pop off the face of the club and make a bee line for the target...Thanks Wilson for 20 years of fun, low scoring golf and heres to another 20 with my new di7's.

Summary:
I bought these irons in the early 90's. I am a careful buyer but picked these up and knew it was the one. I want to upgrade now that they are so old but I cannot find the need cause I still hit them so well and dont see the purpose of changing.
I am now looking at Pi5's cause would like something to work the ball more. I played off a 7 handicap and these irons were spot on.
I think there is a big marketing thing on, new irons every year! I say garbage. I will take anybody on with their latest equipment and these old irons will show their metal, cast and all.
A great set of irons, so much so I dont know where to go next ? Mizuno MP60 ? Titleist ? Stay with Wilson ?

Summary:
These were the best kept secret in golf. Early 90's vintage I beleive. They our a combo set 2-7 irons are forged cavity back. The 8-pw is a forged blade. The set I have came with 2.8 firestick steel. They measure out on a frequency machine as a soft stiff like 5.5 rifle, s200 true temper. This shaft and club heads are a perfect match well balanced. A good swing will result in a very solid feeling impact, not as soft as my Mizuno mp 14 but better than anything else I have ever hit. I have played 5 rounds with these clubs. I am a 8.4 index handicap,have shot a 76,2 77s,79 and a 81 with these irons. What is very noticible about these irons is the spin on the mid irons. I have hit about 7 or 8 5 irons from 185 to 195 all have hit, 1 bounce and stop. I can not do that with my Mizuno's, they release about 10 to 15 feet. Another feature is you are not punished on bad swings as with the mizuno's. Don't get me wrong the mizuno's are great clubs and I'm not selling them. Just these Wilsons are very forgiving and very solid club. If your playing cast clubs and want to go to the next level you would being doing yourself a favor by checking the Progressive's out. If you can find a set. I been watching ebay now for 5 weeks to get a set for my buddy. I guess people who own a set must be very happy with them.
