KZG Forged Cavity Irons

KZG Forged Cavity Irons 

DESCRIPTION

From KZG: "Created with the serious player in mind, these cavity back forgings deliver. The weight distribution is positioned lower on the face to enhance accuracy on the common mis-hit of the better player, which is typically lower on the face. These clubs are forged from S25C carbon steel with a “softer” topline and a slightly longer heel-to-toe length to combine increased playability with that unmistakable forged club head feel. Available now in a beautiful satin finish. In January will aso be available in high polish nickle plating."

Purchased these irons by chance. I found most of the heads from this set in a box at a thrift store in San Diego for $2.50 a head. Found a 5 iron and PW on eBay and had a complete set. Installed Dynamic Gold S300 shafts in these puppies and now have an awesome set of clubs at a steal. These clubs are not for beginners. It took a few sessions at the range to dial these puppies in. The forgings will let you know when you hit a bad shot, but when you make a good swing...watch out, these clubs have a great buttery feel. I have other forged clubs and these guys are right up there with the best OEM equipment.

Awesome clubs. The closest distributor from where I live is located in Azores, 600 miles from Lisbon (Portugal) but I really wanted to have a go with these irons. I had them built a ¼” longer and with dynamic gold S300 shafts. For 40% less money, I now have custom fit clubs with incredible feel and control. Long irons are incredibly easy to hit and you can work the ball perfectly. All this with the feeling of a forged iron. Huge improvement from my old irons (Titleist DCI 981 and Taylormade Firesole). In the tour money talks, otherwise you would see a lot more players turning to companies with more investment in products and less on marketing. Great job KZG and I cant wait to get my hands on a KZG driver.

Customer Service

The distributor was very friendly and fast.

What a great set of irons!!! My distance has improved by about 20 yards on every club. My set is fitted with the KZG graphite shafts which are awesome and fit the irons perfectly. When you hit the clubs it is so smooth you can barely even tell you hit the ball. Awesome clubs that I would recommend to anyone who would like to lower their handicap and play better golf.

Model Reviewed: PFT with 5.0 Flighted Rifle

I got this set a few weeks ago, and from the first ball hit, it was WOW!! What a great set of irons... most might find the design and look to be a bit funky, but I love it, you sure don't see many of these sets around... I grabbed them off of Ebay for $200, seems a steal with the Rifle Flighted shafts, and like new. These are super forgiving, but do not seem as clunky as the Callaway monsters, VFT and 2004 Big Buttocks, er... Berthas, a nicer top line. Graduated weight distribution, as well as graduated face hardness... really high tech. Great trajectory, and the accuracy is super. These PFT's just CRUSH the ball, but still have a nice touch in the short irons. I think these far surpass the VFT's and the price is way too low (if U can find a set). Great for all levels of play, except U hard core blade men! Flighted Rifle, I think the best steel shaft in golf. KZG has kind of faded in popularity recently, so take advantage, they make super products.

Customer Service

Haven't used personally, I hear it is great.

Model Reviewed: KZG Forged II Cavity Back

I had this set built for me by a professional clubmaker, had them bent 2* flat and 2* strong with Grafalloy Attacklite regular flex graphite shafts - they look great and perform as good if not better than most OEM forged cavity backs, very sweet and soft when hit properly and not too punishing when not hit on the sweet spot. I've tried Hogan Apex Edge Pro, Titleist 690CB and 690.CB, Mizuno MP 30, MacGregor V Foil 1025CM, Cleveland TA2, Tommy Armour Silverback 845C - they are all good but I'm keeping these KZG IIs in my bag for a long time, hopefully my ongoing research is done for now. Definitely worth trying if you're in the market for forged cavity backs.

Model Reviewed: KZG FORGED CAVITY BACK II

I am a former Club Pro and have been playing the same set of Titleist Tour Model Blades for 10 years. KZG finally gave me an alternative. I’m hitting demos with True Temper S300 Stiff steel shafts standard length. I will have them built at +1 inch. Ridiculously forgiving for a forged iron while still allowing workability. I hit these clubs higher than the blades but that is to be expected with the perimeter weighting moving some of the mass lower in the head. I needed it anyway. Long irons are the easiest things to hit unless you like the new hybrid trend. (I do not.) As with all clubs, get fitted people!!! Look at how many reviews say something like “then I reshafted with Brand ABC and gained 20 yards”. Ego keeps to many people in stiff shafts when regular is what they need. Go see Mike Pauls at Flagstick Custom Golf if your in or near Richmond, VA or call 804/327-1600. Overall these clubs are forgiving, longer than my old blades (stronger lofts), and buttery soft when hit solid. I love them.

Customer Service

Excellent as always.

Model Reviewed: kzg forged 2

Switched to these clubs 4 months ago I'm an 11 handicapp. Now about 9. These are great clubs with a great feel. Very solid but soft feeling. Good workability. I have S400 dynamic gold shafts hard to find.The only knock on these clubs is I've lost 10 to 15 yards on each iron. I used to hit 7 iron 175 know hit it around 160 to 165.One thing that is good though my iron play is much more consistent. Hit alot more greens in regulation.I've decided to stick with em. Will sacrafice distance for score. If you just wanna hit it long these are not for you.Wouldn't pay over $400 for them though and thats with a good shaft.

These irons are incredible... Plain and simple the best irons on the market, I was using callaway's, but the kzg is far more accurate and consistant in shot control and ball flight. now i will admit they are not quite as forgiving as the callaways, but they are far better once you get use to swinging them. A buddy of mine convinced me to try his and i was hooked. From that point on it was bye-bye callaways and hello kzgs. If you are in the market and have a club building using kzg give them a try you won't be disappointed.

Model Reviewed: KZG Forged Cavity Back(lefty)

VERY easy to hit, especially the long and mid irons. Very forgiving with GREAT FEEL. Lefty Cavity Back looks more like the Cavity Back II in appearance. Considerable offset in short irons. Using Rifle Tour Flighted 5.5 shafts with great results for me. Longer blade helps with toe hits. Not very easy to work the ball..pretty much a straight ball club. Helps reduce slice and hook ball flights.
