After trying to hit the Callaway X-Tour Irons for 6 months without success. I decided to buy myself myself a set of X-18's. Having played with the X-12's they felt like an old familiar friend. So I traded in my tour irons for a used set in very good condition and it cost me a total of $200 dollars.Callaway has the best exchange program. They credited me $260 dollars towards the exchange, while Golfsmith and Edwin Watts only wanted to give me $120 dollars. Thank You Callaway

Just got a second hand set on ebay for a bargain price. Regular graphite shafts suit me fine and the forgiveness is awesome. I used to play a lot, and thought it'd be cool to buy some blades (when I was 16)... I've started playing again after almost 10 years and find the blades very tricky (they're also 3/4" too short!). Tried out a few modern cavity-backs at the local shop & fell in love with the X-18's. After a couple of visits to the driving range with my new toys - I'm sure I'll be able to lower my average score by 5-8 strokes. They're very straight and forgiving, perfect for mid-high handicappers, and they look great too. Many thanks to the previous reviewers.

I am a club "junkie" and have tried many irons...X-18's are the best I've ever hit.They are very forgiving and feel like butter when you hit it.These irons have very clean lines and do not look like a bulky g.i.c.(game improvement club)but they do help the average golfer lower scores,build confidence,and have fun while playing a true gentlemen's game!

One of the best in golf(will have to give a "nod" to Cleveland as well,both are excellent!)

Everyone knows about the callaway x series so I thought it would be interesting to compare a set of blades I purchased and played for the past two months versus the callaways that I have been playing with for the past two years. Here goes.

A well struck blade feeling better than the x-18 is very true. When you pure a 3 iron blade there is no better feeling.

You will feel and know where you hit on the face with a blade much better than with the x-18. That is true as well. Unfortunately there were rounds with the blades that I might have only hit 5-8 pure shots per round. I never had that situation with the x-18's.

The idea that blades are not for mid-cappers was true in my case. I did not know how I was going to strike the ball with the blades. I would have range sessions where I got into a groove and figured I had sorted them out, only to got out an hit them poorly, or to go half the round before I started to get in the groove.

Strangely enough my scores did not change much with the use of the blades. I think for the most part because the short and mid iron performance for blades and x-18's are similar and I do not rely on long irons for my game.

I always thought that it was a myth that blades improved your swing, but that turned out to be the case. When I started to play the callaways again, my swing was different and I was more of a digger taking far bigger divots and hitting down on the ball much better, with a much more pure hit.

I am very grateful now to have the x-18's. The Callaways do take out some of the highs and lows of playing blades, but I know what to expect with these when I go to out.

These are very good clubs for mid-cappers like myself. I will keep the blades for range work and maybe take them out for time to time, but game improvement clubs are for me.

I should have tested these more before buying them. they felt alright in the store test range - but on the pitch a whole different feeling. Of balance with the standard shafts - to heavy in the head. No feeling if it is a center hit or not. I sold them off again. They are not low hcp material i am sure - the offset increased my slight left hook - to the worst. A bad experience overall.

I had been itching to buy some new irons to replace my Hogan Apex Edges which I've been playing with for the past 6 years. I originally was going to purchase the X-20's but they had a great deal on the 18's and I did not find much difference in the clubs. I didn't think I would ever replace my Hogan's but these irons are nice. Very solid feel,with good distance. They are very forgiving clubs with good weighting and look fantastic. I have always been impressed with Callaway quality and these irons deliver. Some may not care for the Uniflex shafts, but I like them. These clubs work for me. Since they are the older series, I'm sure there are some good deals on them. Check them out, I'm sure you will find them to be excellent irons.
