Just purchased the irons, but went the next day to score on the course. Let me tell you, these irons are the real deal. While hitting a bucket of balls before playing, every iron was about 10 yard longer than my old Callaway X-14's. I really had to throttle down on them. Imagine hitting a smooth PW to 120 yrds and a hard one to 140 yrds. If you ever want to hit a great set of irons get your hands on these.......

I tryed out the TA7 irons, TA7 Tour, Titleist DCI 762, Ping i3+, and Ping i3+ blade. The TA7 irons with sensicore shafts were by far the best. The golf ball FLIES off of the these clubs. I was alittle skeptical about the TA7's high trajectory but the first ball I hit was High and Long. The TA7's are 10 - 15 yards further than my older Tour Model II set. And the feel from these are great. The clubs I liked second best were the Titleist DCI 762's. They have a superb feel and extreme distance when you hit them perfect. On perfectly struck balls I hit them a few yards further than the TA7's, but when they aren't struck just right there is thud with no feel, vibration, and the ball goes no where. I was going to purchase them b/c out of my first 15 balls I hit 5 in a row within 5 feet from my target, but after that I couldn't hit them at all. The ping i3+ and i3+ blade were not to my liking. I heard so many good things about them but they just didn't live up to my expectations. I didn't add ANY DISTANCE from my old crappy set and was all over the place with these. With the TA7 tour irons I couldn't hit straight and I got a hole lot of vibration. Once I decided on the TA7 irons, the pro fitted them for me using the Ping Fitting Cart. He told me that my older clubs were too short for me and their lie was too much on the toe causing me to hit alot of shots way right. I was fighting this in my swing and recently I've been hooking alot of shots to compensate. The fitting was great and I'm glad I know that these are the right clubs for me. The only bad thing about my experience was the pro said it would take 10 work days or 2 weeks for Cleveland to send them. I can't wait so I can shoot lower and lower scores.

It takes Cleveland 2 WEEKS to send clubs. I was thinking 5 days.

Ordered these clubs 2 degrees flat and half an inch short, to replace a set of Titleist DCI Oversize that weren't fitted. I just played my first round with the TA7s, and I'm simply thrilled with them. They set up wonderfully to the line, they're terrifically balanced. I had two poorly struck shots, and both shots (a 5 iron and a 9 iron) traveled just about as far as normal, maybe 5 yards short. These irons were dead-on accurate to the target. Perhaps that's because of the adjusted lie. (With my nonfitted DCIs, I hit a lot of pulls.) The 3-iron just flew off the clubface for me. There's a quite a bit of offset with the 3 and 4, but I still found it easy to set up to the target. So far, so good.

Received the fitted, special-order clubs in 8 days.

I'm a touring pro playing on the Canadian Tour as well as on the Austrial/Asian Circuit. I just wanted everyone to know that the TA7s are one of the most forgiving clubs in the market today. I read a couple reviews saying that they "LOST" distance, but in reality the lofts of the TA7s are a bit "STRONGER" then the norm. So for all those people who are "losing" distance there must be something seriously wrong with their golf game. The TA7 Tour clubs have a smaller club head, no offset, and the lofts are a bit weaker compared with the regular TA7s. Overall a great club to hit and play with. Perfect for the recreational golfer.

I purchased the TA7's after hitting Taylormade RAC and Hogan at a test facility. I had been playing Taylormade LCG's for four years (stiff shafts). I purchased the TA7's with regular sensicore shafts and I am extremely happy with the results. My distance isn't that much different than the LCG's but my accuracy and forgiveness is appreciable. I never hit the new clubs on the range and had no trouble adapting to them. I am extremely happy with the clubs and my skin game playing partners have been paying dearly for three weeks now.

The Cleveland clubs are much more forgiving than the LCG's and seemed to be more forgiving than the Taylormade RAC OS that I demo'd.

I wanted to add to my previous review of my new TA7's and complete my story. When I was fitted for the clubs at the Cleveland Van when it visited Golf ETC, they recomended the Sensicore Release shaft (regular). I think they felt that at my age, 59, I needed a regular light shaft. I hit these clubs well but lost about one club of distance and they felt very light during my swing. I called Cleveland and asked to be refitted. I wanted to get back the distance and add some weight to the club so that I could feel the head of the club go through the hitting area. I tested and they recommended the Rifle 5.5 shaft. They asked me to pay the freight ($60.00) to have the clubs shipped to the factory (Tampa to California) and they put in the Rifle 5.5 shaft free of charge. I had the clubs back in less than three weeks. I now hit the ball one club farther than my Callaway X-14's and much farther than my TA7's with the Sensicore (R) shaft. I love these clubs and can not say enough about the service that Cleveland Golf and Golf ETC. provided. The sweet spot on these irons is easy to hit. They set-up perfect and every club is the same. The Rifle Shaft changed the swing weight and I think I gained with the distance additional control because now I can feel the club head and have more control of the club. My clubs are 1/2 inch longer and 2* upright. My recommendation "Don't buy a new set of irons without checking out the Cleveland TA7's". My neighbor just bought a set and he loves them. I take lessons and my pro can't believe how perfect my fitting turned out and thinks that these clubs are perfect for my game. It took two fittings but we accomplished the mission. If their is any critisim, it would be that when you clean the clubs you need to spray WD40 in the cut-outs on the back side of the irons. This keeps them clean and rust free. Great club --- They will be in my bag for a long time.

Customer Service

Read the review. I have talked to Clevland on the phone and through e-mails via their website and they could not be more helpful or accomodating. When I bought my TA7's they bent my two Cleveland wedges to match my fitting specifications. They refit and re-shafted my clubs free of charge. Great job Cleveland.

The TA7's are quite possibly the most forgiving club out there. I purchased them because although I could aim at the green with my old clubs, I could not get the ball to stop. Now, with the height I'm getting from such a high trajectory, the ball is checking up the way it should. They set up beautifully to the ball and instill confidence in every shot. I'm actually consistently hitting my 3 iron now when I never even used it before. You do give up a little distance-one whole club to be exact but working the ball with these is a pleasure. Believe me, I've tried them all and finally I've found the right one!!!!

Demo'd the clubs today in Dallas. I can not speak for the technology, but the feel was great on solid hits, and straight but low on thin hits. Ping, Taylor Made, Hogan and Mizuno all had demo tents next to each other. I tried them all. IMHO, Mizuno Mx-20 was second and Cleveland TA7 were first. Even though the Cleveland boys were feeling a little cocky about Leonard's win last week with a Launcher, the TA7 was the best combination of feel and forgiveness. With a 6 iron carry of 170 yds, the DGS300 was a much better fit for me than the Release shaft. The Release does have a softer feel but launches the ball very high. too high for me, but should fit a majority of smooth swingers. Hit it straight.

Cleveland TA7s are very smooth. Fit and finish are excellent. True Temper Release sensicore (stock shaft) is an inexpensive yet nice-feeling shaft. Not as heavy as Dynamic Gold. The progressive offset is pleasing to the eye. Easy to line up a shot with sharp scoring line. Crud gets in the microcavity holes and the absorption sticker on the back can dent very easily. Distance is great but beware, these Clevelands are stepped quite a bit with a 45 degree PW - comparable with a 9 iron from most manufacturers. Easier to work the ball than prior clubs (Ping I3s) and I am guessing they have less bounce because they are easier to take a divot on a crisp shot with shorter irons. Overall, a thumbs up recommendation. Test all irons and settle for the one you like. One man's Ping is another man's Titleist! Enjoy the game.

Not as responsive as Callaway and Ping but certainly better than Titleist.

Bought the TA-7s. Good choice at the time because I don't think there's a better club out there feel wise. I tried a bunch of clubs SEVERAL times before I committed. It does what it claims...increases trajectory and provides outstanding feel and forgiveness. Other than hitting poor golf shots, I hit the ball straight with these clubs. However, they come with a price...DISTANCE! From shortly after my purchase, I could see a loss in distance of about 10 yards on average for solidly struck shots. My trajectory went up and my distance went down. I know people have mixed performance reviews on this club, but one thing that's consistent is the feel. If you're looking for an overall good club, you should definitely try this one. My only gripe is distance and that may not be an issue for you. Not all clubs are made for all golfers.

Helpful...I got some good answers to my questions in a timely fashion.
