I am a 55 yr old 7 handicapper (going up all the time). I bought the 2 iron off of eBay just to try it out as my long irons have "left me". It was so good I ended up buying the 3 and 4 irons and these may be the best equipment changes I've ever made. I play Callaway VFT irons which are pretty easy to hit, but these easily take the place of the long irons and all my fairway woods. Try these great clubs before you buy anything in the way of a fairway wood. You'll find like I did that you'll never need a 5 wood again (and maybe not a 3 wood either).

If you've been trying to hit the long irons all these years (like me) without consistent success, then you should try these Rescue clubs. I was one who was unable to drop my ego and had to hit flush 2 & 3 irons only SOME people can. For this reason, my game has suffer when long irons are required and the fun of golf has diminished a bit. I looked into 5 & 7 woods, but found them inconsistent in terms of accuracy and control. Finally, I hit the Rescue Mid 2 on the reccomendation of a local pro to help leviate the pain on my long fairway and Par 3 tee shots. This club is awesome!! The distance, control, and accuracy mirrors the long irons. Plus, it's way more forgiving because a toe or heel shot still finds the fairway. I use to think that a "utility club" just sounds and feels weak. But this club is not even in that class, it's a club that replaces your long irons and it does an excellent job in doing so. Hey, many Pros' on tour hit it. Heck, Mr. Retief Goosen launches it off the deck with a 14 degree. Moral of the review is...., don't let your ego stop you from having a fun time in golf. I learned that the hard and long way.

I bought these clubs before trying them which was a bit of a risk. I have the 2 & 3 in steel shafts. I'm pleased i got steel shafts as they are actually 0.5" shorter than the graphites. The day i got them i went out on the practice range just to get the feel of them. The first ball i hit was with the 3 (19°) and it went long and straight. I hit ball after ball with both of them and it really did put a smile on my face. I've never been able to hit good long irons or fairway woods until now. The other good thing is when the burner gets a bit wayward i can use the 2 off the tee.

golfbidder.co.uk offer a wide range of new and used clubs and the service is excellent. The two i bought were both used but in great condition and a bargain at £130 for two.

Many different fairway woods with no great success :o(

I inconsistently hit my Cleveland TA-7 3-iron about 195yds and need a club that relieves pressure on myself when a solid 200yd drive is mandatory. Demo TM Rescue-Mid 3 a month ago and was shocked how easy to hit and long(avg. 210-220yds) the club was. I bought myself a Stiff-flex with a lightweight steel shaft during my 2 week vaca in Japan. Came back to US and found out that the Japanese version is a little lighter (D2 vs D3) and slightly whippier than the US version. I thought I would lose either distance or something else with the JP version. WRONG!!! I actually gained about 5-10 yds and my ball flight was higher when I compared it with Made in USA. Also, I love the TM Crossline-Cord grip that is on mine cuz it's very grippy and gives me a better feel. I would've bought other clubs during my trip, but was afraid of the conforming issues involved with intenational clubs. Hope this magic stick works out!!

Customer Service

Excellent. I did not get a headcover cuz the salesman said they ran out and TM sent me 1 in 4 days.

Never hit any utility clubs until now.

This club is very easy to hit. The length of this Mid Rescue is about the same as my 3 iron. The club is the same as a 2 iron in loft but way easier to hit. Sweet spot is large. My 2 iron goes about 180 but this mid rescue goes at least 200 to 220 yards and straight.

Alien Driving Iron 14 degrees

Excellent clubs they hit lower and with much more control than 5 wood & 7 wood and easier to hit than a 3 or 2 iron. great out of rough and off tee. very sweet clubs

I can't hit the 2 or 3 irons so I gave these clubs a try and settled on the 16*. A nice smooth swing gets me a high and straight shot that goes 220 to 230 off the deck or the tee and makes a nice replacement for the 3 wood.

Excellent replacement for long irons and FW woods. Using the 25 degree to replace 4-iron and 7-wood. Using 19 degree to replace 3-iron and 5-wood. Very easy to use from fairway or tee. High, soft straight shot. Shots tend to go about 5 to 10 yards further than equivalent iron, so with the 25 and 19 degree, I am effectively using a 4-iron and 2-iron instead of the 5-iron and 3-iron designations by the manufacturer. Distance can be easily varied plus or minus 10 yards by changing swing speed or length of backswing. Tend to fade or slice FW woods and do not hit long irons consistently, but these clubs have corrected that. Can be used from rough, especially 25 degree. Hitting more greens from longer distances with these and staying in the FW more. My first Taylor Made products, but these clubs make me want to try the R580 Driver. Only problem is to convince body to stay down since clubs have shorter shaft that FW woods. Old habits hard to overcome.

Orlimar HipSteel FW woods & Callaway Big Bertha II irons.

A great club. I was sceptical at first that these clubs would be aimed at the higher handicappers, playing off 6 I feel I should be able to hit a straight 3 iron 205 yards over water to a tight pin - the fact of the matter is I can but not consistently enough. This club really picked the ball up well from fairway and was equally happy of a short tee for longer par 3's. Steel was a much more solid shaft option, the graphite felt far too whippy but did give a good ball flight, not too much draw considering the shaft flex. If you are considering buying one of these gems then I would definitley try out the club first. I wanted a club to replace may 3 iron, so I went for the 19 degree Rescue 3, TM say that a couple of degrees is lost due to the lower profile, so the club should play like a 3 iron at 21 degree or so. In fact it was much longer than my 3 iron (I play Callaway X16's). In the end I went for the Rescue 4 at 22 degree - this club hit the ball exactly 3 iron distance. No doubt people will be different but certainly try before you buy. The lesson here, don't get macho when it comes to playing long irons, if you don't nail it every time then try one of these, you'll be surpised.

I just got this club after reading some of the reviews here and waiting for them to go on sale. I got the #3 19* with a stiff graphite shaft. (The regular felt like a buggy whip.) I gotta tell ya this thing rocks! I can get 125 to 150 yards easy with this thing, very straight, good control, and easy to hit. Two thumbs way up!

Customer Service

Roger Dunn is the best! They put me on the radar gun and figured I could get away with the stiff graphite.
