Fourteen HI-660

I have lately bought #5, #4, and #3 HI-660 irons from different sellers and they all look sifferent from one another in an interesting way. They're so different that I cannot use them in a set.

The #5 head has a way thinner topline than the other two. I also has a significantly deeper cavity than the others. It has some offset, although it's way less than Epon 901. The head height/depth is higher/deeper than the other two also.

The #4 head has a very thick topline (thicker than the #5 or the #3 iron head) and the head height is significantly shorter/shallower than the #5 and a little shallower than the #3.

The #3 head is the most interesting one and my favorite. I like this one most because it has very little amount of offset. The offset is way less than the other two. It has a little thicker topline than the #5, which has very thin topline, but I like this having very little offset. This one is also very different from the other two because it has "V2" on the hosel and the number "3" in white paintfill on the sole is located in the center of the sole, while #5 and #4 have the numbers on the side of the sole in dark grey paintfill. Head depth is shallower than #5 but higher than the #4.

I guess they were made in different years? I was till surprised to see the head profiles so different from each other in (1) top line, (2) amount of offset, and (3) head height/depth, and (4) writings.

Does anyone know which one is the most recent version? Where can I find a #5 and #4 heads in the third version with minimal offset? Anyway, I found it interesting and wanted to share.

Hi Big Easy

Are you sure they are all genuine? Sounds like you may have been ripped off with that many differences?

I hope I am wrong and they are all "real" but that may lead to some control issues in the manufacturing process which would be disappointing for a high end club!

Did you get one of them from TSG? if so you that would be real.

Hope you find the style you are looking for.
