These are incredible irons. Of all the clubs I have owned, these are the best I have ever played. I was in Vegas, went to the Callaway Performance Center, and was fitted to get the optimal ball flight - lie, shaft, etc. I am sure this factors into the results I am getting. Mine are graphite stiff shafts. I am hitting the ball farther and straighter - and I had loved my Mizuno MX-23 (which have bigger heads than the Fusions). I can work the ball and control trajectory as well with the Fusion. Other than the price and they don't quite have that forged feel from a great swing, I don't find any downside to these.

I went to Florida 3 days after buying them and I shot the two best rounds of my life with these irons. The feel of the club is amazing.

I hit my friends cg4 tour irons from cleveland and the feel doesn't compare.

Smooth,butter. Very nice sweet spot,these irons are just an absolute pleasure to play. They can do anything that I am capable of doing. The truth is this, if my shot does not have the proper results, then it will not be the Fusions fault, it's the guy swinging the club! In fact I bought these clubs a year ago and got a good swing lesson coach @ Man-o-War Golf here in Lexington and that was a big help. He said these irons are all I will ever need...I believe that to be true! I have worked these clubs with a fade,or a draw, high, low, but who cares,I just like to hit them straight and they do that well..it has more to do with my ability than anything else at this point, I have to learn my irons and keep playing! Again, these irons are able to do all that I ask and then some..I just LOVE to hit'em @ the range or, on the course!

Fantastic! Callaway knows that the best product in the world is only as good as their Customer Service. I bought mine through Callaways preowned.

I have been playing Fusion Irons with graphite regular shafts for approx. one year now. . I went from 13 handicap to a 8 this past year and have been in the top 3 of my flight in a few tournaments this year. Fusion irons have a high shot pattern and have given me more distance than previous irons. The typical shot pattern is a high slight draw for me. Distance is excellent and very consistent. I would rate the shot dispersion about average. Overall, these are excellent irons. Not much feedback on off hits, as all shots feel about the same due to the technology of the irons. Overall, I have been very happy with these clubs and if I decide to get another set of irons, I will still keep my Fusions.

before i get started heres a little bit about me, im 5'6 14 years old drive it around 250 my handicap is 6. Ive had these clubs for about a month now and i absolutly loved them, made the switch from x-18's these clubs are so solid and forgiving, great weight ratio, gave me about a club and a half more in yardage. if your looking at callaway irons go with the fusions.

by the way before buying them at a proshop for retail price check ebay.

I tried all the recent Callaway irons (X18's, xtours and these). I found I could not consistently hit the xtours (I'm not good enough) but they are a nice club with great feel but below average distance (could be me). The X18s I could not play with at all. I put this down to the standard uniflex shaft which is rubbish and they have alot of offset.
The fusion irons are forgiving. They are slightly above average on distance. The thing that stands out is that they really help keep balls on line but at the same time it is easy to shape shots. I find fading easier than drawing as the fades are very controllable while the draws can get hot quickly. Knockdowns are probably the easiest to hit of any iron I have ever tried and distance control is superb.
I really like the nippon shaft. I hit a seven iron around 160-165 and this shaft feels great. It is not too whippy and feels very solid. I was really worried about this before buying these clubs as I had always used dynalite stiff shafts but I wanted more technology in my irons to help me out. The other outstanding feature of these irons is the lack of offset (which helps shot shaping). They do not look or feel like game improvement irons but at the same time help alot on the bad swings. Overall they are excellent irons for my 9 handicap index and are staying in the bag.

I bought all the above irons from Callaway preowned with custom fitting. They were superb and changed each set until I foulnd the ones I liked with full refunds and no issues at all. Great service, great price, super fast custom changes and shipping (same day shipping with shaft length and lie changes). No issues, great people.

I ordered a 5 to LW set of these clubs when I was in Australia recently. Golf World in Cairns looked after me magnificently and the fitted clubs arrived here in China one month after ordering- excellent service Greg.! Well what can I say..MAGNIFICENT !! I have gained a real two club lengths, but more importantly accuracy that is just great ! Scored 88 last round and I normally play anywhere in the 90's so something is working. I am now hoping that my handicap will now come down. These clubs were worth every penny !! Thank you Callaway

1st some info about me: 55 yrs, 5'11", 170lb. been playing golf off and on since the age of 11. handicap currently a dismal 12 mostly due to a brain ill-suited for this game. 7iron = 160-165. driver (10.5deg touredge exotics)= 260.

i had been playing with mp32's for the past year and a half. there is nothing that i know of that can match the crisp, sweet feel of mizuno forged irons. but after briefly demo'ing a fusion 5 iron with nippon uniflex, and after reading every review ever written, i decided to order 5-pw.......standard everything.

after 3 weeks of use i can report that i am liking these irons more and more all the time. the nippon shaft is just fine. its relative lightness allows the clubhead to be felt more easily. it is smooth, graphite-like, but being steel, it transmits more feedback to the hands.

it is pretty hard to hit a ball poorly enough to sting the hands. lots of forgiveness. plenty of length. and i do not have any issues - yet at least - with, as some have described it, an 'overly hot' titanium face.

granted i almost never use 5-pw when i chip. i use my mizuno 52/56/60........mostly the 56-14

i can't say the fusions are a beautiful club to look at, but neither are they ugly. top line is not too thick and the head size is not too big.

we have had nothing but rain in the east this year and the courses are borderline unplayable right now. but the fusions are handling the slop better than the mp32's.

lots of straight shots, but still workable enough. i am a natural low ball hitter with a relatively flat around-the-body-level-shoulders swing, and i am encountering no 'ballooning' trajectories. trajectory is slightly higher for me than mp32's and i do not mind that a bit.

the feel of the club when struck on center is nice. it is not mizuno orgasmic, but it is good enough.

Have played Callaway for a long long time, actually, since the original sq head snake killers.I'm going to be 70 yrs old, but I can still bench my own body weight and have a 33" waist. I play in the mid 80s.I've used my son's ta6s, my son in law's pings and nothing can touch these clubs in my opinion.Technology..Superior..Feel...superior...Distance...approx 1 whole club."NUFF SAID.

Not that I’m a Callaway fan, mind you. No, sir. I’m far too accomplished a golfer to need shovels made for week-end turf herders. I was just a lefty in need of a fit, and I was certain that the Callaway Golf center would at least have an ample selection of clubs from which I could get accurate metrics.

During the fitting, I expressed my desire to keep the ball down and to have a club with which I could hit a baby fade, but which I could turn over into my natural draw without too much difficulty. After some disappointing results where I ballooned the X-18 and X-Tour fairly consistently, I was ready to give up on Callaway, but I was hopeful that I could translate the results (and the Callaway specs) into clubs with similar head weights.

But it’s at that moment the pro (Jim) changed my life. He brought out the funny-looking club. The design looked a bit over-engineered and conjured visions (in my elitist mind) of the Nike Slingshot. I wouldn’t be caught dead using this technology, but I acquiesced.

Holy crap. What a club. Sound. Feel. Workability. And…and…forgiveness? No way.

I’ll spare you the superlatives. (Read the other reviews.) Suffice it to say, this club would help me score. Left, right, straight. Low. High. It didn’t matter. I thought it, it happened.

It’s like this: Before the Pro-V1, nobody thought a ball could be long and soft. Nobody figured you could rip a ball 310 down the gut with a four-yard fade, then have enough jizmo to back your approach up by five feet. Fact is, Titleist did it, and a new era of performance balls was born.

Well, what Titlist did for golf balls, Callaway has done for irons. These clubs combine forgiveness with workability and feedback. I could tell when I missed a shot. But nobody watching me could.

The moral of this review is this: Don’t let your ego get in the way of a better game. Don’t give something up to your competitors by fooling yourself into thinking that those blades will make you a better golfer. Your swing will not suffer from some help from these irons. If you can’t feel where the ball’s going after hitting these irons, maybe you’re not as fine-tuned a machine as you thought you were.

The manufacturers have done all they can do with the ball and the driver. The USGA has finally set the limits on the performance of both. Meanwhile, innovation in irons has been comparatively stagnant, but to boost sales, engineers will be hard at work improving iron and wedge technology. Right now, it seems to me Callaway is winning the race. My recommendation is to join the winning team.

One more thing: Yes, they are expensive. And I wish I could say that equipment doesn’t matter, but as the Model Golf (www.modelgolf.com) will tell you from decades of statistics, better equipment makes for lower scores. My own experience working at a golf course and working out with tour pros can attest to this simple fact of golf life. So my advice to the reader is: (1) GET FITTED. (2) Play the best clubs that you can afford.
