These were my first "real" set of name brand golf clubs when I purchased them in 1998 after playing for about a year. I had no idea about game improvement vs. better irons, cast vs. forged, shaft flex, loft/lie, etc. They were brand new TMs in my Pro Shop so I bought them. Looking back my only regret is that they came with R-80 Rifle shafts and I definitely need stiff flex at this point. These clubs helped improve my ball striking and hit some wonderful shots over the past 18 years. I've had them regripped more times than I can count; most recently being a few months ago with my usual Winn soffee type grips that are standard size. The irons have excellent distance (160 yrd 7-iron) and have a very high trajectory. Mis-hits are generally not punished too bad unless you completely duff or skull it. I can tell, however, that my swing is much better and I am ready to graduate to a used set of blades like Mizuno MP-33 or Titleist 690 mb. I also don't appreciate the amount of offset they have since I have to constantly fight against a hook. However, despite all that, I will never get rid of these babies since they are still great clubs and have tons of life left. I figure when I hit 80 I might revert back to these so why ditch 'em. Any high HC or beginner who wants a solid set of clubs without dropping a grand on new sticks I recommend looking these up on Ebay, Craigslist, etc. Very affordable, easy to get up in the air, nice size sweet spot, and they last forever.

Never had to deal with any.

Tried the Mizuno MP-52 several years ago and at the time I was not skilled enough to have them in my bag.

Bought these new back when the SuperSteel and Firesole clubs were coming out to replace them. Got the last set in the store and haven't regretted it a day since. Maybe that's because they replaced my 25 year old (bought from a friend's dad) Johnny Miller Classic blades...but I've upgraded all my other clubs a few times but never really had the urge to ditch these. I'm sure there are plenty of clubs out there capable of doing more...but these do EVERYTHING that I'm capable of and they give me confidence to hit the shots I need.

My son is 5 and I am planning on only giving these up when he is old enough to use a full size set.

I bought these clubs as a replacement for my lynx paralax clubs when i was in my mid to late teens. I have the s90 riffle shafts in them and can hit the pitching wedge 140-150 easy. This aside distance and all, i realized that the lofts are all strong, so in fact i am really hitting a 9 iron.
I hit the ball off the tee around 300 yards. So here is the problem what do you do inside 140 yards without going out and buying 4 more wedges. Great starter club feels good, great for people looking for extra distance(all be it mostly just loft nudging) but can be adaptable.
Now playing maltby blades and wedges.(mmb forged) truer lofts and more playability.

I just picked up a set of the TM LCG Irons (obviously used) from Roger Dunn Golf and love them. I just started playing golf again after a few years off. I was playing with a set of blade irons before getting these and can say that the TM LCG irons have added at least 15-20 yards per club to my game. Large sweet spot on the face and nicely weighted. I would recommend getting a set of these for a beginner or someone not looking to spend a lot of money but want a really good club.

I bought my TM LCG clubs when they first came out (quite a long time ago - so long ago I don't remember, but 7-8 years at least) to replace my Titleist DTR's. This was a good move for me and they eventually allowed me to improve my game and shoot in the low 80's consistently when playing from the championship tees (~7200+ yrds - I play mostly in Raleigh, NC and Myrtle Beach,SC on some very nice courses). I even shoot in the high 70's a couple times a year (very good for me). I just recently bought a set of Mizuno MP 32 blades to try to improve my game once again. I really like these clubs and hit them pretty well. But honestly, the TM LCG's are a better overall club....more forgiving, the same soft feel (almost forged-like), good distance control, and just as accurate, at least in my hands. I CAN work the ball quite a bit better with the MP'32's, but the overall playability of the LCG's is pretty unreal. After doing a lot of comparisons at the driving range and on the course, I think I am actually going to switch back to the LCG's. Go figure? In any case, I'm now going to take putting lessons to improve my game, and not switch equipment. This is what I should have done in the first place, but the temptation to switch to something "newer and better" to improve my game without putting any more work into it was too great. Oh well. Live and learn. Happy golfing everyone!

I got the lcg burner irons when i was on the high school team, loved them then, and still love them today.. i play on a college team now and realized i need longer clubs so im moving on to a new club and i dont like any of the new Taylor made irons.... the only club that i hit as nice os those is the ping G5

Customer Service

never any... unless i wanted touch up paint

Irons have Bubble shaft 2 stiff flex(S-90)
I've played these irons for about 4 years now and still love them. They have a great swing feel and contact feel.
When hit on or near the sweet spot it feels great and flys great. These are also pretty forgiving on mis-hits.

Recently I've had the gear itch to get a new set, but keep talking myself out of it. I've demo'd a few top of the line models and haven't been impressed enough to make the switch.

These irons definately still hold their own in todays market and I think I'll keep playing them.

These irons are for mid to high handicappers. If you shoto in the mid 80s or higher these are for you if not i would high suggest nike blades or callaway x-12 irons

I went on over to Dick's to demo some drivers after I lost all hope with my Callaway HawkEye. I tried out an R7, R5, R580XD, R580, R540, and Cleveland Launcher. I don't know if its just my swing or the mindset that the club puts me in, but I always seem to hit drivers better that have smaller heads (and tend to be made of steel). This driver was my final choice, as I felt that the feel it provides me and my swing adds confidence in my ability to strike the ball solidly and hit it straight. If you are like me and are tired of drivers with enormous heads ruining your long game, give this driver a shot. For the 79.99 I paid, nothing comes close, not even the 500 dollar R7.
