The takeaway

Budget hollow iron that flies high.

They agree

  • +Forged feel, soft off the face
  • +Very tight carry dispersion
  • +Forgiving on mishits
  • +Clean look with almost no offset

The knocks

  • −Short irons spin a touch low
  • −Wedge looks tall at address

Buy it ifyou want a clean players look with real height and forgiveness for the money

Skip it ifyou need to hit it in person before you buy

“this thing here the vg1 I I like this one a lot”

The pick of the two: a clean, essentially offset-free hollow players iron with surprising height, real ball speed and tight dispersion at a friendly price.

+ the facts · 9 pros · 3 cons
  • +Three-times forged hollow head with almost no visible offset, only 3.2mm stock
  • +Blade-shaped but with low CG and high MOI, generous enough head size
  • +Standout peak height, 117 ft on a heel mishit 7-iron, 107 ft on the 4-iron
  • −Wedge looks like a tall blade at address, less appealing than the 7-iron
  • −Slightly heavy feel through the wedge
  • −Sacrifices a bit more on mishits than the VGI02

For: Scratch to mid-teens players who want technology and speed in a clean players profile.

“two really good performing sets”

A really good performing budget hollow-body set with a forged edge, essentially neck and neck with the Takomo; the choice comes down to brand preference.

+ the facts · 5 pros · 1 cons
  • +Forged construction with a really nice soft feel
  • +Extremely consistent carries (one yard front-to-back dispersion with the 7-iron)
  • +Very forgiving, badly struck shots still found the green
  • −Spins slightly lower than the Takomo in the short irons

For: Golfers wanting a good-looking, forgiving hollow-body budget set with forged feel
