Srixon I-302 Forged Irons
Nice set of sticks. I did not enjoy hitting these indoors. But once I got them out onto the course man it was like unleashing the hounds. Irons seek out flags. If you can find these hit'em. Rifle shafts are a nice touch too. Not to much of an adjustment from the DGS300's. These irons are under the radar here in the states so if you can find'em chances are you'll end up buyin'em.

I bought these to replace my old 845s as part of my quest for a more consistent swing. I wanted some irons that were a little less forgiving and these fit my needs perfectly. They are definitely capable of punishing a bad swing, while good swings produce shots that are nothing short of poetry. They look great at setup, with a pretty thin top line and minimal offset. They're wonderful irons, and cost considerably less than Titleist or Mizuno. I got mine on ebay for cheap. Similar Products Used: Tommy Armour 845s |

Great deal for these quality sticks, simple design, lots of forgiveness, great feel. I've tried a lot of cavity back forged irons and these by far are the best for me, will be in my bag for awhile. Great deals on Ebay when available, got mine for $330 near mint with Rifle Flighted 5.0 steel shafts. If you like cavity back forged clubs, you should at least try these.

Srixon 302
Recently trialled these while looking for a new set. Very nice clubs. Combine the playability of forged blades with the forgiveness of cavity backs. This style of forged cavity backs seems to becoming increasingly popular, with all the big name manufacturers producing a line of similar clubs. I would rate these as good as any out there. The quality of these clubs and craftmanship is top shelf. They produce good distance with a mid to high ball flight, and are very consistent in feel and distance. Japanese forged clubs are made to tighter specs than others and the results are obvious when you hit these. Shots out of the centre are like butter. American forged clubs just don't seem to have quite the same feel as Japanese clubs. As Srixon are not big outside Japan, where they are number 1, these clubs are underpriced for the quality you get. The only reason I didn't get these is because I found a set of MX 20's that were even cheaper, although in quality and performance I would rate both clubs about equal. These are the absolute highest quality clubs you can get, but are priced in the mid range of inferior brands. If titleist made these they would be double the price. Any low marker on the lookout for a set of quality forged blades could not find better than these, and would not pay through the nose. Similar Products Used: Titleist 690mb (not bad but way overpriced), Taylormade RAC (dissappointing), Mizuno MX20 (absolutely pure, as good as the Srixons) Callaway x16 Pro (offset, cast, oversized and clunky) Ping s59 (Very ordinary feel) |

Srixon I-302 Irons
Never thought I would go for the Srixon brand but after I tried them at my local range I just had to get these into my bag (this is after having tried all the big name brands). The forged heads feel great and the 5.0 rifle shafts are also very forgiving, mis-hits don't seem to lose much distance or direction. The other thing I love about these clubs is the look, very simple and no chunky designs etc. If you are a mid to low handicapper I don't think you can beat these clubs for performance and price.

now with over a dozen rounds under my belt the facts are good for me. best feeling club 6x forging process must have something that separates it from others. rifle 6.0 shafts are GREAT never thought I would play anything but DGS300. Wrong!!!! srixon is #1 across the waters. where all golf clubs are built. that should tell you something. u should at least give these babies a test run if u have a chance.... BET u will put them in your bag............... |

people this is the best secret in golf. I have always had my eye on these irons. since they do not sell that well here where I live eastern TN, the price has fallen in half. therefore I decided now was the time to give them a try. sure has wasted a lot of time and money on other products. THANK YOU SRIXON!!!!!!!!! |

Srixon I-302
Although Srixon is not yet well known for its golf clubs in the US, it soon will be if the quality of its product is reflected in the forged I-302 irons. These are finely designed and crafted golf clubs. They set up beautifully at address and look great in the bag. The 6x forging process used by Srixon produces a club that appears more uniform and provides the kind of softness and feel one should expect of a forged club. For those who really need to feel the clubhead position throughout the swing and who prefer a slightly heavier club, these will fit the bill. Distance is consistent throughout the irons and longer than my previous clubs (Titleist 690.CB). As importantly, although forged and giving the appearance of a player's club, the Srixon irons are remarkably forgiving - and enable you to work the ball in both directions. Mis-hits result in some loss of distance, but not much, and direction remains constant. You can hit either high soft or low boring shots with virtually every club in the bag. In this club, Srixon has achieved a great balance between the feel and good looks of a forging and the forgiveness of a cavity. My clubs came in the stock 6.0 rifle shafts which I prefer. If you can get your hands on these clubs (not many stores are carrying them) demo them and draw your own conclusions, but I strongly recommend the Srixon I-302s for anyone from a scratch to 15 handicap.
