I have played a set of Titleist DTR's for about 15 years. They were my first real set of golf clubs and they were great while I was learning the game. Up until a few years ago I would play 4-5 rounds a year and never felt upgrading would be cost beneficial. The past few years I have upped my rounds to about 10-15 per year and finally decided to pull the trigger. I looked at a few sets but really felt I wanted forged blades instead of the game improvement irons. I scoured Ebay and reviews and decided on the 690 or 710 blades. I could not find a set that was low enough for me so I decided to go to Golf Galaxy and see what sets they had for sale. They had a set of 735 CM's that i took to the launch monitor and after 1 hit I knew I had to have them. With my DTR's I hit my 6 iron around 160 but the 735 went about 180 (did on the course as well). I like this set because it has the cavity back for the longer irons but the control of the blade on the short irons.

I took them to the driving range the same day I bought them and couldnt hit anything square (tops, slices, and hooks). I re-gripped them with winn 6pchy-bbl blue oversized grips and when I hit the course it was money. I think proper grips make a huge difference in club performance.

I consider myself a very good iron player and have hit more greens with these irons on par 3's than I ever did with my DTR's. If you hit the sweet spot on a regular basis these irons might be for you although if you struggle to make solid contact you might want to get a set of game improvement irons.

If you are playing a set of antiques like I was, you might want to consider getting these irons.

i have my irons one year,i have gone from a 5 to a 3 since playing with 735 cm's the long iron sit lovely on the fairways the blade feel from 8 to wedge gives you confidance to hit a good shot,i use s 300 and with them i have broken 70 twice @waterville where i am a member

Purchased these off of ebay the other day in chrome and immediately took them to the range. I have played with a set of older 762's for the last 5 years and hit them pretty well or so I thought. All I can say is "Hot Knife thru Butter".
I usually avoid playing in winter because the hardpan in Oklahoma doesn't agree with the bounce on my irons. No more because from the first ball I hit off of hardpan dirt, I knew these were the real deal. Last year, I tried the AP2's last year and could never make them work. (Too clunky).
The 735's have a very slim topline which inspires major confidence letting you know you can work the ball at will. Choking down allows you to flight the ball in the Oklahoma wind with ease. The soft, buttery chrome has an addictive feel that no stainless club can match. After the range, I couldn't wait to take them to the course. The misses weren't as bad as my 762's and the ones I hit on the screws were ridiculiously good. A couple times I drove the ball into jail and both times was able to manipulate it through and around the trouble and onto the green. I can't wait to get back onto the course and really groove these. If they are this easy to hit off of tight hardpan, I look forward to seeing what they can do off of grass. Titleist irons continue to impress once again. If your handicap is 10 or less, GET THESE IRONS! They are SICK!

I have tried Mizuno blades and Cleve cg15's. Nothing compares to these. Wow!

I am 14 playing of 13 and I was given these clubs about 9 months ago by a trainnee pro, and I must say they take som getting used to, but my handicap was 23 when I started using them. I think they come out with a low ball flight and long distance.

Been playing with this set of 735 CMs for 3 seasons. With hcp of 4, I still had some difficulties getting started with these after striking with old good Nike Pro Combos. Titleist irons seemed to feel heavy, compared to others I've used and many other big brand irons.
After getting used to heavy feel and lazer sharp feedback, I have to say I love my 735's. They look good, they feel just as good as you deserve (bad shots make you wanna cry) and the ball flight is very much how you hit it - although you do not get any ballooning by accident!
I would not recommand these for anybody. You have to strike ball solid to get everything out of these beauties. But for those who can... OH BABY!

I have been playing KZG PC IIIs and wanted to start working into a forged set of clubs.
I like the progressive idea when it comes to irons, just like the pc IIIs and the KZ forged evolutions, but did not want the cost of new only to find out I cant hit a forged iron. I bought a used set at Golfsmith and cant only say that I am incredibly impressed with how easily it has been to transition from a progressive cast set to these forged ones. Distance control is great and you always know if you have hit a bad shot, a decent shot or a walk off home run. Do not hesitate in buying these clubs

I got the 735CM forged stainless irons from my brother in law who bought them from 3balls. He couldn't hit them and isn't patient enough to get used to 'em so I have swapped him for my trusty Titleist 822.OS irons. Played one round with them and I'm impressed by the feel, feedback, looks and results. They are very accurate and I can control the flight of the ball with far better control than the 822.OS sticks. The 822's shaved 6 strokes from my handicap so hopefully the 735's will have a similar impact...

I've had the 735.cm for about a year now and I'm glad I made the purchase. I ran across them in my local golf shop's clearance rack just before I was about to purchase a set of game improvement irons. They were brand new for the most part as they were only hit in the store. I had to test them and purchased them immediately afterwards. The salesman even tried to talk me out of buying them. He said I would enjoy golf much more with a set of super game improvement hybrid clubs. I'm glad I didn't listen to him. I can't say that my game has improved as a result of these irons, but I bought them when I practiced often. I can say that I shot my lowest score (82) with them. I've been close to potentially going lower, but a few errant shots here and there killed those opportunities.

The clubs are a joy. The thin soles allow you to pull off shots that would be a little bit more difficult with wider soled clubs. Don't believe the hype, these clubs are really not hard to hit. They have a little offset which is helpful and you are not overly punished for mis-hits.

If you are thinking about pulling the trigger on these, go ahead. My only warning is that if you are one who obsesses over having a clean looking club, make sure you play from the grass only because the clubs ding easily from rocks, hard pan, etc.
