Posted January 18, 201015 yr Got the PRGR TR500 Forged demo in for testing. Quite a beauty. Posted on the blog: http://www.golftoimpress.com
January 19, 201015 yr I knew when I first saw these on the GTI blog a little while back these were going to be a must have. I don't know what it is but these look like a winner. IMO, PRGR has to be the most under rated club maker out there. Going to be a serious iron shoot out in a couple of months... Should have 5-6 of the new iron sets ready by then. I have a feeling it's going to come down to the AF302's and these (TR500's).
January 19, 201015 yr They look unreal and what may do it for me is that they appear to be a compact players CB from above and below but have the mass behind the face of something a little more forgiving. I think these could be my 2010 gamers!

February 19, 201015 yr First Impression: Very blade like. It is actually a blade in disguise. This is for the good ball striker. Blade player. Beautiful club. If you've ever bought a club just to look at this would be one of them. I'll have a review up in a couple of weeks.

Technically it's a CB, I will post more pics in this thread tomorrow, It is stunning to look at in person.
March 21, 201014 yr that is one stunning iron, what size is it? 302 502? It's smaller and more compact vs the 302. It also has less offset and a thinner top line than the 302 does. I was able to hit the TR500, its for the guy who wants a soft muscle back that has more forgiveness than a traditional MB. I could make this set work if my ball striking was spot on. I will leave the TR500 Limited irons for those who can handle a blade.
March 21, 201014 yr Hi guys, Many have said that these are blade players irons, are they less forgiving and more blade like than the yamaha v forged tour irons? or are they both in a similar slot? I assume that the regular v forged yamaha is similar to the 302 what from prgr would be similar to these I assume the GN502 tour model?? Vineman Edited March 21, 201014 yr by Vineman23

I consider the 302 to be a player CB while the standard V-Forged sit's slightly outside of that category. The GN502 is a players CB but also sits on the verge. Yamaha Tour Model Irons are very players CB and less forgiving than the 302's yet IMO more forgiving by a small margin when compared the TR500 Limiteds by PRGR. PRGR pretty much considers the TR500 a blade I think.

Personally, I don't like CB's smaller than say a 302, preferring a muscle back, they just seem to feel more solid than equivalently sized CB's. No doubt these PRGR's are fantastic and will deservedly be highly sought after.
