Titleist DCI 762 Irons

Titleist DCI 762 Irons 

DESCRIPTION

The new DCI 762 is the flagship of the player-proven DCI iron franchise. DCI 762 irons are high-performance blades with contemporary design technology. Their thin face design and a multi-piece carbon and metallized mylar cavity insert provide unparalleled feel, increased playability, and modern flight characteristics. The multi-layer, multi-material cavity insert provides "muscle-like" feel without any wasted cavity mass. The cavity insert features a woven graphite sheet in the lower part of the cavity to soften the impact area and provide enhanced feel.

These irons are great. I bought them used from my father and do not regret the purchase at all. The clubs are very workable allowing me to hit fades, draws, slices, hooks, high shots, knockdowns, you name it. The feel is fairly soft for a cast iron. On the down side all the grips seem like they were not aligned properly with the clubface(grip alignment graphic shifted right). My only other complaint is that they seem to exacerbate my natural right to left ball flight even on the short irons.

very good set of irons. i beleive that these clubs are good enough for anyone with a decent swing. it doesnt matter what handicap you have that is irrelevant if you put a good smooth swing on these clubs you cant get much better. the grips are superb as all titleist cord grips are. when they get wet there is no change than when they are dry just as easy to grip. i have 3-PW with R300 true temper shafts in them which come as standard and i payed £300 for them brand new in february last year. these clubs are very well weighted and sit beautifully behind the ball. the looks are very good and so is the feel. when struck correctly they produce a mid ball flight with mid spin. i have had these for just over a year and i cant really fault them. im getting a new set of mizuno mp-32's (the only set of irons i beleive are better than these!) by the way the 3,4,5 irons are so easy to hit.

Model Reviewed: 762, S-300 Sensicore

although i have written some before, i'm somewhat skepticle about reviews of golf equipment simply because what works for me might not work for someone else. i'm going to write this review based solely on what i have determined about these irons from my playing ability (4 handicap). first i'll write my findings on them then i'll give my honest opinion. i have been playing forged blades (ta-1's) for the past 4 years, but i decided to invest in a mid-size cavity back stainless steel iron set with blade-like aesthetics for more forgiveness. i do most of my club investing through ebay because of the good deals available (even tho you still have to shop around and be patient for it to come along). what turned me to titleist irons was an investment in a full set of vokey wedges. since the most recent titleist irons are all forged, the 762's seemed to be my best bet. i was lucky to find a used set on ebay with sensicore shafts and got them for $190. i don't use the 3 iron, 4 iron, or the pw (i use a vokey 48* wedge) so this review will be based on the use of only the 5-9 irons. at setup they have a mid-size blade look with the distinct titleist shape to them. these irons are weighted very nicely so all of them pretty much set themselves up when you place the head behind the ball. like titleist claims, they do have offset, although minimal, but visually it doesn't show. the ball flight is a mid-high trajectory. the ball launches high then flattens out and carries what seems like forever. i found the 5-7 a bit difficult to hit fades with, but i naturally hit a draw so this is not a problem for me. i did find it easy to hit knockdown shots with a low controllable trajectory. the combination of v-grooves and mid-high trajectory create mid-spin; the ball consistently stops within a foot of where it hits. the distance with these is long. i'm 1 club longer than my blades with all of them. thin shots stay online and lose 10-12 yards but still check up. fat shots and toe shots stay online and only lose about 5-7 yards (it's unheard of for fat shots to only lose minimal yardage, but it's true!!). as far as feel and feedback, remember i have sensicore shafts, and winn g8 grips. feedback is true. i know exactly where on the face i hit the ball. the feel is more solid than my blades. it's also very consistent across the entire face. i hit one off the heel but didn't know it until i looked down at the club. as far as sound, well, they sound like a stainless steel iron :). those are the facts, now here's my opinions...i love the look of blades, so these fit my eyes very well. when i setup to hit a shot, i know that the ball is going within 10 yards of my target as long as i put my natural swing on it. i also know that there will be no harsh feel from mis-hits. these thoughts alone are enough to inspire confidence at address. in other words, i have no negative thoughts about any shot i'm preparing to hit. i've never been much on cavity back irons, but these play as close to blades as you can get with added forgiveness. i don't like alot of backspin so being able to land the ball an exact yardage and have it stay there is a characteristic that allows me to play aggressive at most any pin. i rate these a 5 for value simply because they're no longer available through Titleist but are easily attainable on ebay between $200-$300. i also rated these a 5 overall based on the fact that these irons fit my game in every possible aspect. i honsetly cannot find anything negative to say about these irons, other than titleist no longer makes them. i hope this review helps anyone that may be trying to decide on an invesment of these irons.

These irons in a word sum it up as well balanced sticks. There are no gimmicks which I love. Took these irons out for the first time and shot close to every pin even from 200 plus yards out. These irons are not for someone that can't strike the ball well, yet do give forgiveness if not on the button. There good classic look inspires confidence which means alot in my perception.

These irons are incredible. I'm 14 and I started on old Taylor Made blades. I made the switch to Titleist 762 irons when i got them for christmas and my level of play jumped up. Previously, I was hitting my Taylor Made 7 iron about 145-150. Now, I hit it from 155-165. These irons also help promote a high draw. These irons are great and I would recommend them for any golfer.

Very solid irons. I wrote a couple of reviews on some TA-6s last week and the week prior. I did not like the TA-6s, so I swapped them for the Titleist 762s. These are confidence inspiring irons, with reduced offset (compared to others) and very forgiving. Do not listen to the reviewers who say that these are for the 10 handicapper or less. Right now I'm playing to a legit. 21 handicap and I rely on solid iron play. The 762s are blade like at address, but have a large cavity back and are perimeter weighted. I get good feedback from these, and forgiveness and aethestically they are sharp as well. I do however, have these with Royal Precision rifle 5.5 shafts; they usually come standard with D.G. s-300 or r-300 shafts which are excellent as well. I would encourage anyone with a fairly decent swing to try these irons. You can pick these up at most golf stores for around $350, on ebay for a little lower. Oh, I have hit the new Titleist 704s and 804s; the 762s are just as good and I think they look a little nicer too.

Titleist warranty is not that good, (1 year limited), but I don't think I'll need to use it.

These irons are great , if you hit the sweet spot they go for ever i use to hit my 5 iron about 160 im now hitting my 7 iron that far and my 5 iron about 190. These clubs are very good they have a small head that my other irons so it takes a few rounds to get use to them.

these clubs are just perfect. the size of the clubheads are perfect, they are not too huge like callaway and they are not too small. the skinny bottom allows makes those tight lies in teh fairway more appealing and you do not even think about hittin it thin or fat. they give me a higher trajectory witch i love with all of my clubs. they are also tremendously consistent. definetly a great choice. again titleist out does itself. another quality stick.

I hope you read this review, because it will sell you on the Titleist DCI 762 Irons. I have played blades the majority of my golfing life. I don't play as much as I used to now, so I decided to make it a little easier on myself on the course and purchased this set on eBay for $425.00 w/ Rifle Project X 5.5 Shafts. These DCI's are incredible, meaning they glide through the rough and do not dig like blades, and the lofts are stronger than traditional irons, which means you will hit them further. Now, I know the shafts are the engine of the club and these Rifle Project X 5.5 are perfect for me, but I highly recommend these clubheads as they are workable and forgiving at the same time, seriously, I have never hit a better clubhead than these DCI 762's. I used this website to get and idea of which shaft would be best for me and just went with it. http://www.swingweight.com/royal_precision_fitting.htm I an speaking for the DCI 762 w/ Rifle Project X 5.5 shafts and cannot say anything about True Temper DG or any other brand of shaft. All-in-All, these DCI 762's give you confidence at set-up and the ability to work your ball to place your shots where you want without having to hit them sqaure on the "nuts". A must have for the guy that shoots in the high 70's and low 80's.
