Silverscreen Posted June 20, 2013 Report Share Posted June 20, 2013 Was wondering if anyone who has hit these can comment on the feel and playability of these irons. Thanks! Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gocchin Posted June 21, 2013 Report Share Posted June 21, 2013 Writing my review now... Stevo has also gotten them and hits them so perhaps he can chime in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevopagolf Posted June 21, 2013 Report Share Posted June 21, 2013 I got them Monday. Put them in play on Tuesday and again today (thursday). I have played the Titleist VG3's since 2010 and love the VG3's and won't be selling them anytime soon. That said, the Romaro R type V's are excellent. Almost as forgiving as the VG3's, but feel is better, the feel very pure on most hits, and provide more feedback when not struck well. With the VG3's it is sometimes difficult to feel where you missed it when you miss it. The RomoRo's have a little narrower sole which in my opinion makes turf interaction better with the RomaRo's and they are better from the rough.. The top line of the RomaRo is also a tad thinner which gives a better visual for the better golfer. The RomaRo's are long, i even had mine custom built through TSG 2 degrees weaker, to play 46 off the PW and they still are every bit as long as the stronger lofted VG3's. I have played numerous JDM clubs. MR23, Srixon 404, Miura 301 and 501, Taylor Made's, Maruman, On Off 247 and On Off Plus' and for me the top of the heap are the RomaRo and the original VG3's. The RomaRo's are good from probably a 5 to an 18 index easy. In summary, the RomaRo's feel great, offer plenty of forgiveness, are long and have a thin top line. I would say the are between regular and mid size in appearance which adds to confidence without any clunkiness in appearance. They are so easy to hit I plan to add a 4 iron to my set. Also, the RomaRo woods and Hybrids are outstanding. I could play 3wd and 18* hybrid and take out the driver, the titanium cup face makes them that long and forgiving. I am not playing particularly well at the moment so this is not a honeymoon endorsement. I am long and in the fairway, the irons are on spot, but my wedge play STINKS! Feel free to PM me or ask questions on the RomaRo here and I will answer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+TourSpecGolfer Posted June 21, 2013 Report Share Posted June 21, 2013 Steve that's great feedback, I'm even more excited now to hit them than before. Will be posting my review after getting a few rounds in. The Type-R FW and UT look beautiful as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverscreen Posted June 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2013 Thank you so much for the very detailed review. It is very helpful!!! They sound like a winner... Trying to decide between these and the onoffs... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
potuna Posted June 23, 2013 Report Share Posted June 23, 2013 The original Vs are awesome, sounds like the new R version is even better. Too many good sets out now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tokidoki1986 Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 I'm so totally waver between this type R and a Buchi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+TourSpecGolfer Posted August 19, 2013 Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 RomaRo is a brand that I could easily play every product, the Type-R irons feel very good and are very forgiving yet doesn't look like a shovel. This and the George Spirits mono 3D I don't see myself getting rid of either one any time soon, Recoils in the 3D's and MCI's in the RomaRo's. I actually have a set of heads 5-PW that never been hit but have damage from shipping I can let go for a killer price just PM me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
