I've seen pictures of those MacGregors, they look sweet. I don't think I have the game for them, though.
I'd like to try a Nike Sumo for kicks, but I doubt I would buy one unless it really blew away everything else.
Oh yeah, I also just acquired an 18* Wishon 321 head as well as an Infiniti 18* Hotshot, so I'll be doing a hybrid showdown against my old SnakeEyes QuickStrike in the next few weeks.

My prediction is that the Wishon will dominate, with Infiniti coming in a distant second.  |

Since there's no progressive set (from cavity to muscle) of women's irons (that I can afford, anyway), no, I don't think so.

I would really like to try the new forged irons from Adams. I went and tried these out on my lunch break today. They are sweet. I didn't realize they come stock with True Temper Black Gold steel shafts (though it says so right on the website). They are gorgeous the feel is every bit as good (if not a little better) than my Wishon 550s. If it weren't for the $800 price tag, these puppies could easily sway me back to OEM irons. |

I just think the Black Gold shafts are nice looking. (Stepless and brushed nickel finish.) I have no real world experience, but they did feel pretty good hitting into the net. The FST shafts, aside from being solid performers, do have the benefit of being about 35% of the cost of the Black Golds.  |
