Best Forged CB irons of 2011/2012

[pk923]

Chris, which one is the dumbest : ) ? 702, Vg3, on-off forged, or egg forged. Really like to hear more about this egg forged, maybe a review soon please : )

Although I have only hit the Onoff forfed and the 2011 Yamaha v forged tour out of the bunch, my vote goes to the onoffs. Stupid easy to hit.and still acceptable looking clubs. Oh and by the way, did I already mentioned soft...?

The 302 and yam tour models were and still are awesome. I am currently very into romaro clubs so it's a very tough choice. I'm going to wait a bit longer for an official vote. If I vote now, the Yamaha tour model will get my vote.

Dumbest as in easiest to hit? If so ONOFF Forged no doubt and it has minimal offset which I love! It's all about finding the balance of look, forgiveness, and feel imo. I would leave 702 out, too much offset.

Yamaha V Forged Tour 2011 have my vote. Amazing irons. I've never owned any JDM stuff before but I now have a set of these in 3i - PW with 52* and 58* wedges, all shafted with Quadra 4AX SOF 100i in stiff. Amazing irons. They have a small head which makes me concentrate more, but they feel fantastic.....did I tell you how amazing they are?? :)

On off forge will be in my bag soon

Hi there Mr Tourspecgolfer! Shall I call you Chris? It's good to be aboard the good ship JDM. I've never owned the usual sets of irons - Taylormade/Callaway/Nike/Titleist etc, As soon as I discovered Tourspec it was like opening Pandoras box :)

Would really like to see how the new vg3 fares when it comes out end of this mth

Another vote for onoff forged...my vote goes to them because of feel ball flight and super forgiveness....if i was a better ball striker i would have chosen the yammy tour forged

This is exactly how I feel.

Just received my yammy v forged tour - lets see how it stacks up to the 302s, which still holds the title in my bag

[swing981]

what shafts do u have in the yammy v tours...

[Chanaa]

Trying out the pxi, if it doesnt work, will switch back to ctapers

[supo]

hmmmmmm me think u will be back to c tapers very quickly

[EPONfreak]

Is there a cavity iron with the same profile as AF-Tour? I play a 302 4-iron and it's pretty good but not quite what I'm after.

I just got my c-tapers in action. Holy strong flight through the wind, Batman. I don't have the problems loading these that a lot of people seemed to have.. they feel smooth and responsive. Slightly higher ballflight than I prefer, but i will take it as it seems to provide a soft landing on approach shots with my short irons.

Anybody? Specifically sole width?

[Chanaa]

Yep changing back to my c-tapers for my yamaha vforge tour. Way too much spin on the pxi. Any other iron shaft recommends ? Super Low & boring is what i want

....and just changed my vote from 302s to yammys. Best club ever struck, but full club shorter thsn 302s....must be the shaft.

mate try the yammy tours form 2011. they are like a reved up form of the 302s.

lthere is nothing ike the af tours..... thast whay the yare so good. they did something no one else has made a big blade.

i use these as a cavity and i use them when the grass gets thick.. thin blades for tight lies. flush for lush.

[vanla01]

hey Tsger's, whats a better choice between the Yamaha V forged non Tour and the 2011 OnOff forged, your thoughts and opinion much appreciated.

[DaleUK]

I think it would come down to Shaft and brand choice to be honest!!

[vincent]

have a set of OnOff forgeed! and I agree with wrong shafts it feels awful!
