Shankopotamus Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 Thanks for the write up, Chris. I'm curious, what did they do to be able to keep the flight down? Everything in the design, from the cavity design, sole width, tunsten weighting, etc., seems to point to a high launching iron. Did you mean that the trajectory was just lower than expected or actually low, like a player's cavity? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you mean that the trajectory was just lower than expected or actually low, like a player's cavity? For sure not low, it had a Repulsion kick ST105 that is somewhat a firm steel shaft. I would call it almost high and maybe with say Modus125 it could be mid/high These are excellent irons though, onoff has evolved these into something special.

yamaha2014 Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 Quality from on off is superb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vegaman Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 (edited) These look really good for a GI, clean. Kinda what you'd expect from the major OEMs with their Tour Only or "B" series GIs that contracted players tout on tour as being "the same" as the stuff at Golf Galaxy. Only we can buy it and get the same stuff the JPGA tour players use without having to deal with some "it fell of the tour van" murky guy.

Vegaman Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 One thing in the pro shop though, the listing says 4-pw but then you can click on "extra clubs" there is still an upcharge for "4-iron". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+TourSpecGolfer Posted January 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 Updated the title in the pro shop sorry about that :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vegaman Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 Updated the title in the pro shop sorry about that :) Make sure it's changed on the OnOff "brand page" too. It's still listed as 4-pw there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shankopotamus Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 Any comparisons to the 2014 VG3? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+TourSpecGolfer Posted January 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 Any comparisons to the 2014 VG3? I sure can, the RB247G is not as soft, it's a bit bigger, it's longer and more forgiving, RB has more offset. The two look and play very different.

potuna Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Wow these look great, not 247s though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dakara Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 Currently using the older RB 247 F - any bigger improvements with the new "G" model? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoon Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 Im surprised labospec would release a GI iron? Pls correct me if i am wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bogeydog Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 I have them but too snowy to play Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dakara Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 @ Spoon I meant the RB 247 F -> was followed by the 247 G model. Just saw on their homepage that they put some comments on the differences between those models. (Inceased sweat spot on the G model with deeper undercut) Did anyone tested both models?

In Japan some pro's play these types of irons. @ Spoon I meant the RB 247 F -> was followed by the 247 G model. Just saw on their homepage that they put some comments on the differences between those models. (Inceased sweat spot on the G model with deeper undercut) Did anyone tested both models? that's correct It's subtle very difference if you have the F I don't think there is a need to upgrade to the G.
