TaylorMade 300 Irons

TaylorMade 300 Irons 

DESCRIPTION

From TaylorMade: "The traditional look comes from the thin topline, mirror chrome finish, straight leading edge and minimal offset. The modern conveniences of optimal weighting and center of gravity are achieved through TaylorMade's exclusive trapezoidal cavity pad, which is placed behind the impact zone to maintain ball velocity and preserve feel. Like the 320 and 360 irons, the long irons in the Forged 300 set have negative bounce to help create lift, while the short irons have positive bounce to prevent ballooned shots."

I'm done, i have been iron hoeing for 2 years now, started with adams cb3s, went to calloway x forged, then x2hot, then x12 pros, titleist ap2 2012,ap3s, ap1s,,calloway steelheads, miura pps, mizuno mp68s(great irons btw), mp63s, tzoid pros,bridgestone j38s,macgregor, vfoil cbs, vfoil mbs, ,ping i15s, eye2s,g5s,mizuno jpx800s, im sure im leaving some out,,,to come to these t300s from ebay, i know ive gotten better along the way cause i travel for work and all i do is play in my spare time and i don't think clubs replace talent ,,and my stick might not be your stick, but im done i found my babies...strike it well and it does what's asked of it...also my 2 cents on the threads ive read about certain clubs that are suitable for certain handicaps,,, i think you should get a good set of player irons and they will help teach you what to do properly and reward you when you do...if you want to get good that is ..if you wanna just play and have fun...then the game improvers might be for you,,but damn when you hit a forged club sweet its an amazing feeling

Weakness:

the only weakness is my swing

THESE IRONS ARE UNBELIEVABLE, I PLAY GOLF COURSE'S TOTALLY DIFFERENT YARDAGE IS GREAT, MY 8 IRON AVERAGE IS 155, BEFORE I WAS LUCKY TO GET 140yds. MY T300's have stiff shafts, I DONT GET NERVOUS WHEN PLAYING A TIGHT COURSE. I JUSTR NEED TO FIND A GRIP THAT IS COMFORTABLE. AND THE REASON IM WRITING THIS REVIEW IS . I AM 55 YRS. OLD, I HAVE HAD 3 HIP REPLACEMENTS, L BIG TOE NEEDS TO BE FUSED,BULDGED DISC IN NECK. BOTH KNEES SCOPED TO MANY TIMES TO REMEMBER, I WAS TOLD THAT THIS SET OF IRONS WAS FOR THE SCRATCH GOLFER ESPECIALLY WITH STIFF SHAFT'S. BUT I HAVENT BEEN DISAPOINTED WITH THE WAY IM HITTING THE BALL, AND IF TAYLOR MADE WANT'S ME TO GO TO WORK FOR THEM I WOULD STRONGLY CONSIDER IT, GREAT PRODUCT.

These irons are amazing! True power, feel, wieght. I play maybe 10 times a year, but I practice often. I have shaved strokes, increased my distance, and improved my accuracy dramatically. I will never hit another club. They are my soulmate, just kidding honey! lol

Model Reviewed: Taylor Made 300 Forged Irons

These irons are awesome! There is not one bad thing I can say about these sticks. First of all the clubs are just plain beatiful at address and in the bag, which matters to me. They hit long and they are more forgiving on off-center strikes than you would think and give great feedback. I am not really a shot shaper but I'm sure these can maneuver just fine for a surgeon. I have the 7 8 9 and PW only. My 4 5 and 6 iron are taylormade RAC OS2. I hit my 300 7 iron the same distance as my RAC 6 iron (165-170 yards) and the ball flight is pretty high too.

The feel of a well struck ball is just awesome and sooooooo satisfying and fun to watch. They will forgive you on off-center hits but they will still let you know you missed. I've hit a few way out on the toe, I mean way out- halfway off the grooves. even then, you still get about 85-90% of it.

These clubs also seem to be pretty durable for forged irons. I have played about 50-60 rounds with mine and they still look almost new. Bag clatter is minimal.

I am a little bit of an ebay club junkie but these babies are gonna stay in the bag for a while. I am now looking to get a full set and get rid of my oversize long irons because my iron play is improving fast.

You can get a set of these on ebay in great condition for less than $200. Do it!!! You won't be sorry. These perform just as well as any forged cavity backs that have hit the market... Titleist, Mizuno, Callaway, Hogan, all of them.

I would love to see some fresh reviews on these and how some others would compare them to other forged sets on the market... lets hear it.

Model Reviewed: TM 200 iron

I played the game for 7 years now and had been using the TM 200 irons since. I like the feel of these irons. Hit my 6 iron a decent 175 yards and 4 iron 190 yards. Still does not handle the no.3 well but I think I'll get there in a couple years or so. I am current looking for a used 6 iron and AW to replace wear and tear they are my favorite clubs.

Great irons!

Forgiveness - Ideally suited for a player who is reasonably consistent in hitting the sweet spot. Clubs have a shallow cavity. Forgiveness is between a cavity and blade iron.

Workability - Very workable. Want to hit a fade, draw, knock-down or any combination - No problem.

Looks - Looks like a blade from the top with a thin top line, but with a slightly longer blade length than the typical blade. Nice chrome finish that looks classic and easy to keep clean.

Distance - Distance is largely a function of loft, shaft flex and hitting the sweet spot. These irons have lofts that are slightly weaker than today's typical irons. As a result, they play slightly shorter. This is a positive, not a negative. The marketers are out of control -- they continue to reduce iron lofts to satisfy golfer egos. I prefer a PW with 48 degrees of loft so I can transition nicely to a 52 degree gap wedge. Don't select irons because they are longer.

Lies - Long iron lies are flatter than today's typical standard. Short irons are similar to today's standard. I adjusted the lofts in the long irons to be slightly more upright. Lofts should be adjusted based on dynamic swing testing.

Shafts - Using the Rifle Flighted 5.5's. Long irons fly slightly higher than the "old standard" True Temper Dynamcic shafts. Distance recommendations can be found on Rifle's website. Compared to the True Temper Dynamic shaft, the 5.5 flex plays slightly softer while the 6.0 flex plays slight stiffer.

Again great irons! Perfect for someone seeking a semi-players iron that is somewhat forgiving.
