titleist 755 irons
I have been looking for a good set of irons for a while now as my hanicap has come down considerably in the past year to now a 4. I was hitting the old taylor made firesoles which i enjoyed as the feel was great and distance was awesome, however i could not work the when i needed to. My buddy has the mizuno mp 32's which i will say are an awesome club but i found that these 755's are similar in the sense of i can work the ball however i want with them albeit the smaller head and pure forged head of the mp 32's make working it even easier. The turning point for me was the money factor as i picked up a set at the golf show for $275 brand new. I played the for the first time on the course today and i felt really good as they promote confidence at adress and i could actually hit the ball with the same shape my "minds eye" saw. i have lost no distance other than to the cold 40* air temp. i also noticed i could stop the ball where i needed with just about every type of shot. i think anyone with a 10 hanicap or lower would benefit from giving these a try. i feel it was money well spent and would give them my recommendation.

Many of these reviews are pretty spot on. I played with the 755 irons, standard everything last weekend, stiff flex, metal shaft. Was really looking forward to it as well - I thought they were pretty good, not terribly forgiving and a small club face. I am looking for new irons and just loved the Callaway X-20's I played with last fall and will probably go with them as I found them more forgiving and a real great feel, cushy and buttery... the 755's felt like the old 1970's forged irons of old, so if you like that harder feel without the cushiness, you'll probably like these a bunch. They really are fine clubs and a very "rock solid" feel if that's what you are looking for, but I personally wouldn't get them, only cause of personal taste and nothing more. Enjoyed them though.

I recently purchased a set of the 755's off of ebay after going to golfsmith and demoing just about every name brand iron out there. I've had my current (Tommy Armour) irons for over five years so really anything with new technology would help me but I still wanted to get the best clubs I could find so I can increase my chances of shooting par this year.

I definitely enjoy Titleist 755. Great shape and great feeling. Forgiveness is quite reasonable. (actually less than 775s, but the feel is better with 755s) I think Mizuno and Titleist are both great irons. Mizuno is softer but I prefer the feel of 755, more solid feeling.

These are a joy to hit. I also own the Mizuno MP-57s and I find these a lot more forgiving, with comparable feel. I disagree with the notion that these do not have the "forged feeling" as I have played multiple Mizuno and Titleist irons, and these are equal in feel. I switched over from the 695CB and do not regret the decision at all. Great clubs! Customer Service No needed (yet) Similar Products Used: Titleist 690MB, 695CB, Mizuno MP-60, MP-57 |

Been playing with pure forged clubs. These 755's do not have the feel of a forged iron. Felt like hitting bricks. Don't think these irons are for the low handicapper. Customer Service never used |

I bought these clubs after shooting the Titleist 775s. The 75s are more forgiving then the 55s. You need to have a consistant swing to be hitting either club. I did notice that I was more accurate with the 55s as far as shaping shots into pins. They feel like you are hitting a marshmellow when struck right and I love that. But any Titlist product will give you that feeling. Overall I like the 755s and would recommend them to a avid golfer. Customer Service n/a Similar Products Used: 695s , 775s, |

I am definitely enjoying my new 755's with Titleist tri-spec firm steel shafts and cord grips. I had been playing Mizuno Pro-II blades for seven years and decided I need some forgiveness. I also wanted a club that has a mid-sized head and classic profile -- not one of these big clunky junked-up irons with plastic and chrome all over them. The 755's are forged, cavity-back irons and are just the ticket. The difference is that off-center hits still fly the full (or almost the full) distance and stay on line much better (compared to the Zunos). I have been hitting more greens hit in regulation and love these clubs. Customer Service Custom ordered clubs and received them in ten days. |

I have finally started to remember what it is like to enjoy golf again.I started golfing 3 years ago and became instantly addicted.Spared no expense,and read every Videojug tip.Watched PGA events religiously,and mimicked their swings in my sleep.My first custom clubs were Ping G2's (3I-HL thru SW).They were great,and I broke 90 within the first year on a tough course.My game seemed to have plateaued,and my best score up to July of this year,had been with my buddies borrowed clubs,so,of course I blamed the clubs.I ordered the Titleist 755's this summer,according to the specs to which my Ping's were made.BIG MISTAKE!!!.GET FITTED...Trust me,get fitted.I spent hours on the internet researching lie-angles,shafts,etc... My first game with the new clubs was a dismal 104.I payed my hundred bucks,got fitted,and what a difference 2-degrees upright made.I shot a 40 on the front nine of a really tough local course yesterday,then blew up with a 9 on the par-4 tenth hole to wreck my game.ONE MISS-HIT,and a hazzard stake did me in,however,I went back out today and shot a 41 on the front nine of an even harder course(2-three-putts in there too).The 755's are AWESOME.I now know what they say when they are talking about "feedback".It is instant.The clubs force me to stay very still,and focus on the ball.When you hit the sweet-spot,look out.I can now tell a push-slice from an open-face slice.I can tell why I have made a mistake.The learning curve was instant,and I have improved tremendously in the past few games.I have started to love golf again,just when I was thinking about taking up squash.My set includes a 2-iron thru PW,a 52 degree Vokey(8 degree bounce),and a 60 degree Spin-milled Vokey with 4 degrees of bounce.I don't own a driver,but have found a new best friend with my 2-iron.I have a GPS verified 287 yard drive with it last Saturday.Anyways,the most improved part of my game with these clubs has been from 140 yards to 210 yards out from the flag.I now walk confidently up to the ball,knowing that with a smooth swing,I can get there.You don't need to try and pound the ball.Let the club do the work.It has been one of the toughest things to do,but I needed to slow dowm my swing.It goes almost as far with a smooth,easy swing.I realize I am probably out of my league as far as skill level goes,to ever master these clubs,or even realize their true potential,but at least I have the right equipment as a base on which to build.I am a 36 year old novice golfer,but I will be a good golfer some day.My goals are realistic.I will learn to putt and drive and all that stuff as I go along.For me,the most rewarding feeling is that sweet sound "splat",as you nail your ball on the green in regulation.I have NEVER used my marker repair tool as much as I have in the past few weeks since playing the 755's.The thing I love most about golf is iron-play.I am now a Titleist poster-child.Hat, umbrella,towel,shirts,bag,EVERYTHING. The experience of dealing with this company has been great since the get-go.Whatever you try out at your local shop,give these puppies a test-drive.They rock!! |

755 2-PW TT Dynamic Gold Shafts
I bought a set of these because I had been playing blades (Titleist 695mb's) and simply haven't had the time this year to practice as much as I should to stay consistent with them. I got fitted for the 755's and the first thing both the fitter and I noticed is that the stock "Trispec" shaft was to tip soft for my swing. The Trispec is apparently a set of flighted shafts, and I was ballooning the mid and long irons badly. So, we ordered from Titleist's customer shop and had True Temper Dynamic Golds in stiff flex installed. There was no up-charge for those. I got them a week later and wow...this is like cheating! These are so easy to hit if you have a consistent swing! Actually picked up a club's worth of distance despite them being a higher launch than I am used to. I am definitely having a lot of fun with these!
Customer Service Special ordered from Titleist's customer shop and had them inside of a week. Pretty good service so far! Similar Products Used: Titleist 695 MB's, Ping S58 & S59's, Mizuno MP32's. |
