Posted March 27, 20168 yr comment_255156 A-GRIND CMB Combo Irons - It's not often we see dedicated set of combo irons produced by a brand so kudo's to A-Grind for releasing the all new CMB series which is designed as a true combo set matching the the MB & CB in shape, size, and performance along with a dedicated driving iron to replace the your long irons for more forgiveness. Each of the 3 CMB products can be purchased ala carte as full sets irons ( non-combo ) but both A-Grind & TSG suggests #3/4 in the Driving Iron #5/6/7 in CB with #8/9/PW MB. Of course you can mix it up any way you want and I mean any way you can possibly think up given all the lofts they provide. Lofts, Lie, Head Weights, FP, all flow by design to make it a dedicated combo set. Forged of S25C in a brushed satin finish the MB iron is your traditional blade with a beautiful shape from all angles face, address, and back face. Again these are available as a full MB set 4-PW or in any make up you choose or a Combo set as we suggest. A-Grind calls this the HC or half cavity, we are going to call it the CMB Cavity Back Iron but it's a simple design that was made to flow effortlessly from the MB's short irons. Available in Combo make up as you desire or a full set of CB's consisting of 4-PW. The A-Grind CMB Driving Iron comes in many lofts #2/3/4/5/6! So in theory you can go from Driving Iron to MB or CB straight. MB at address, minimal offset, thin top line and great shape. Same goes for the CB but with a slightly thicker top line, sole, and just a smidge more offset. Into the Driving iron which isn't supposed to match perfectly but still flows well visually, it's designed all around making your long irons much easier to hit.
March 27, 20168 yr comment_255159 Like those... But I'd not like making the decision on what Combination!!....
March 27, 20168 yr comment_255165 Really nice stuff again from this brand , the CB reminds me of the miura 1008
March 27, 20168 yr comment_255171 Not unlike the set I've put together from the blades and CB's (although mine add the touch of TSG smoked copper... ) I can vouch for the combo. Smooth, consistent A-Grind quality all through the set. Beautiful work, great clubs! I should also add that I got a chance to hit the Y-Proto driver on Friday, and it's special, too. Second only to the T.388, IMO, for a small head driver. Great sound and feel. Very workable. And long. Edited March 27, 20168 yr by RLL33
March 29, 20168 yr Author comment_255224 When will these be on sale? It's not on the site yet i believe Just added today sir, welcome to TSG btw.
April 1, 20168 yr comment_255393 Terrific looking stuff, usually I'm not a fan of combo sets but these do look like they flow beautifully. Intrigued about the 6# DI, wonder how that would be to look down at..Pretty good is my guess because of the shorter length heel to toe
April 2, 20168 yr comment_255402 Really tempted with the CB , any chance someone could give an idea of forgiveness with a-grind R1, epon 302 and 703 ? Thanks

April 17, 20168 yr Author comment_255892 Quoting myself :) Anyone try those ? I'm thinking of 5/6 : DI 7/8/9/pw : CB Thanks Unfortunately I have not hit the CMB series yet, I have hit the R1 and that thing is a true players blade and pretty small from edge to edge, In hand the CMB is slightly larger but not by much, I think what the CMB blade has going for it is that it's specs, shape and flow blend very well with the CMB cavity backs. I don't think people really need the CMB blade in the combo as you say going from DI to CB is perfect enough and comparing the R1 CB vs the CMB CB the top line is thicker as well as the sole it looks more forgiving. Comparing to Epon, well both the R1 CB and CMB CB are more compact than the 302, I would suspect just a little less forgiving as well, we can't compare them to 703's as thats a multi piece design with a stainless face thick with extra offset.
