I'm from the Philippines. I bought these clubs used (good condition)because of budgetary constraints. $177.00. I was using Cobra SS before. I find these forgiving and workable. It has a soft feel to it and i like its old school design. I will use these for a long time. I like the performance. The only problem is it does not age gracefully. the face is easily scratched.

I just bought these irons and took them to Charlotte North Carolina to play a round with friends. I was extremely nervous because I didn't know how these irons would perform on the course. And all I can say is, Oh my. Wow, these clubs will improve your ball striking and give you confidence and hit your longer irons. These are a steal. I was so close to paying $400 for some Taylor Made's. Excellent value. Similar Products Used: Top Flite Muscle shaft and Muzuno T-Zoids |

I bought these used and like new at Golf Galaxy for $100 because I travel a lot and don't travel with my "regular" clubs. I took these with me to the WIlliamsburg area and shot some handicap reducing rounds for sure. The shots felt soft and solid off the face. Ball flight was higher than what I like, but since it was very straight, I can live with that.

I've been a blade player most of my life, Wilson Staff, Hogan and recently Mizuno MP-33. I was having problems striking the ball well and thought it might be time to move to an iron easier to hit. I tried many irons, most the big name brands. I stumbled across these irons at Dicks Sporting Goods for $199.

I felt I had to contribute to this forum solely due to the fact that I depended on it myself when making the decision to purchase new irons. I searched high and low for information, reviews and opinions about golf’s new technology in the iron division. I was paying a set of 97 DCI oversized + GOLD irons for the last 12 years. I considered myself to be right in the mix with all the friends I would play golf with. Usual rounds in the 80-86 range, with occasional mid to high 70’s. My best round is a 73. During my quest for new irons, I swung just about every club in the intermediate category, seriously…I must have hit easily 1000 balls with different clubs over about a months time. I was the five time a year golfer for the last 5 years due to having kids and starting a new business. But I have the bug big time and I was ready to upgrade! I just happened on a website that mentioned the B-H5 Iron as a major “sleeper” of a club. I went to Dick’s due to there being a sale of $199 on them…(note) only about $300 cheaper than the club lines I was browsing. So I taped them up and hit them along side all the big names…I hit them better!! Not just in my head…seriously…better and more consistent! So being thrifty, I found a set of standard, regular flex used clubs on EBay. $127 plus like $15 for shipping. I just put them on their maiden voyage today (8/11/09) Holy Crap!! I mean Holy Crap!! I must have had 10 shots that completely blew me away in regards to the results based on the bad contact. I couldn’t believe it…it felt like I was “stealing” strokes from the golf gods! HA! 4 Iron… 200 yards with a nice easy crisp swing! I read the reviews…most seemed a little far fetched ok, but they helped me in my decision a lot! So I’m going to help you right now…in all seriousness you will not find a better (maybe equal) but not better club today even at the $500 range! They’re all over the place, buy a set today…you won’t be sorry! Haven’t golfed in a month…shot a 42 (9) from the tips at a course I haven’t played in two years…also really bad yardage markings as well…with a Sky Caddie I bet I could’ve shaved another 4-6 strokes off my score! I was hitting them that well! (For me) Good luck! Similar Products Used: you name it i hit it! |

I just received my BH-5's today and went out for 9 holes to test them out. I was amazed at how well I struck the ball.

Ive looked everywhere and these clubs are of unbelievable value, for a set that was selling for $120 a club just two seasons ago $269 AUD was a price i couldn't go past. Now ive got them and i must say i wont be changing irons anytime soon, these clubs give me such forgiveness its unbelievable, at the price of $269 you get the preformance of $1200. I reccomend these clubs for anyone and with the price tag they are for everyone. Similar Products Used: Powerbilt Grandslams, Powerbilt Citations, Taylormade Burner Irons |

I was really struggling to get any consistancy with my previous irons. I picked up a set of these clubs for $250 AUD. Straight away I was seeing positive results, Hitting my irons straighter and longer. These clubs are very easy to line up at address, and give you a fair bit of confidence. |

I have bought and sold clubs for years and have owned these irons 3 times. Twice given to brother-in-laws. I keep going back. They are identical to the Callaway X-14 pro series that I use to own, just $500 cheaper. I will not get rid of these again. They are easy to work the ball in any direction if you know how to do it. Buy them. They are practically giving them away now. Customer Service Did not use. Similar Products Used: EVERYTHING! |
