Back again - after giving the clubs a reprieve from the dumpster and spending more time at the range, this is the final review these clubs will be getting. Final verdict - worst clubs on the market. Garden hoes would have more feel than these - only reason I shot my best round this year (76) was due to the fact that I hit every fairway but one in regulation and I had a total of 24 putts in the round!!!! These things suck as far as getting close to the hole. Give credit for long and straight, but I'm really tired of seeing straight at the flag go right over top of the flagstick and over the green!!! Absolute junk!! I'd trade these for a slice of pizza and a pop. Still can't work the ball and will sell these so I can afford a good set of Cleveland TA-7's. By the way, I would recommend Adams ST woods to anyone - seriously.

Purchased a set after playing with a rental set while on business. I've played 7 rounds with these clubs and believe that my game is more consistent, increased accuracy to the green but I'm also hitting the ball further for example I'm hitting a 8 iron 155yds would use a 7 before. The only 'dislike' is that you don't get feel with these clubs--which is okay for me but if feel is important to you then these probably are not a good club. I also like the grips and would recommend these clubs

I previously owned a set of Ping Zing knock offs with SU300 stiff shafts that had the loft/lie corrected by local pro to specs. Purchased a set of Wilson Fat Shafts with stiff shafts this year. As an honest 9 handicapper, the majority of my games last year were in the high 70's with a low game of 73 for the year. I thought that the Fat Shaft's would improve my game, however in fact it is the opposite. I have no feel with these clubs, distance control is worse (the easier the swing, the further it went), and I have to scramble to keep my score >85. So far, my low game is 80 after 5 rounds which is bad since I haven't been better off the tee. Bottom line, these clubs will be up for sale shortly as I cannot fine tune it at the range either. For example, 150 yrds would have been a nice 8 iron before - now a 9 iron is about 155 yrds and a wedge is about 140. It is great if you want yardage, but for a golfer who is trying to finese his shots close to the hole, I find these not effective. I would recommend these to those high handicappers who want to improve their game into the 80's, but if you want to go low, I wouldn't recommend these. Nice clubs, but not for me.

Ping Zing style clubs

I did alot or research and tried out alot of irons before I bought these beauties. I thought all along that the Fat Shaft was some sort of sales gimmick. The minute I demoed them I was sold. These clubs are singlehandedly responsible for the 8 or 9 strokes I've shaved off my game in the past 6 weeks. It took a night or two at the range to get the yardage down, but now I feel that I have a chance to score every time I line up the ball. I'll admit that there isn't as much feel as my old Mizuno's, but the distance and control easily make up for that. I haven't quite convinced myself to give up my Cleveland wedges yet. If you really want to improve your game, I highly recommend getting a set of these, and forget about all the teaching gadgets that are on the market. These are the real deal if your serious about improving your game.

Two things - 1- If someone offers you free golf advice, take it. -2- If you are an intermediate-beginner struggling with control - BUY WILSON (deep red or II) FAT SHAFTS! I am your average golfer (95-105) who loves the game but was getting amazing frustrated with mis-hitting my irons. Then I recently got the Wilson Deep Red Fats. Wow! You read all the talk about them really helping mis-hits & figure that it's just a marketing ploy? Well... IT'S ALL TRUE! I have an admittedly horrible swing and probably would toe the ball if my club face was a foot long, but with these clubs, you still get a great shot out of it. All the hype, all the promise & all the technology ACTUALLY WORKS! I've heard that the Fat Shaft II are very similar to the Deep Reds, but at the price I got mine, I was thrilled to get the latest sticks. Bottom line - My distance did not go up or down but I have gone from hitting 5 out of 10 shots well to hitting 9 out of 10 shots well! (no kidding!) While I don't know if these would really help the scratch golfer, but if you ever mis-hit the ball, these clubs are miracle-workers. Easy to hit & hard to miss. They might be a bit spendy unless you find a deal like mine, but if you enjoy the game and want to get better - BUY THESE CLUBS!!!

I have been looking for a new set of irons for over a year now. I am an average golfer with at best an average swing. I had been looking for a forgiving set of irons and tried several sets of irons and found nothing better than The fat shafts I bought. Very forgiving even after 16 holes with all my drunken friends I still seem to hit the ball straight. All joking aside, I tried Cleveland TA5''s, Cobra Gravity backs, and Macgregor dx''s. The only one of these I remotely liked was the Cobras. I am looking for a 2 iron now just to complete a perfect set.

This was my third set of clubs in my first two years of playing. I upgraded to these from a fairly nice set of Yonex graphite irons and immediately added 20 yards to all of my lengths and)once I figured THAT out) took an almost instant 10 strokes off my score. When they say "game improvement" they mean it! None of the 10-handicappers I play with can stand these clubs but for the beginner or high handicapper I don''t think that you can beat ''em.

Nothing like them when it comes to accuracy and control. Easily shaved 5 strokes off game. Absolutely love em!

Can''t be beaten

I just started playing 2 years ago and had settled in with a set of Taylor Made Supersteels w/rifle shafts. A local golf shop had a demo day with the original Fat Shafts on sale. I tried them and were impressed but not enough to give up my Taylor Mades. Then I tried the Deep Red Fatshaft Irons in steel. A much better feel, no stinging on offhits. Very straight and about 10 yards per club more distance. I changed the grips to Golfpride Tour Softies. I have a feeling these are going to be in my bag a long time.

I have played golf for less than half a year. At the time, a friend of mine suggested me not to invest too much on golf clubs. The reason was because he thought I might or might not enjoy the game and might give up. So, I purchased a complete used set of Wilson Aggressor for $30. I enjoyed the game and caught up my swing pretty quickly. A month later, I told myself I needed some new clubs. I asked for suggestion from my friend. He told me that oversize clubs had more forgiveness. While blade ones would provide more feeling. Something in the middle would have both. (He personally thought that blade clubs would teach you how to swing correctly.) Well, since individual club types have thier individual characteristics. I thought about what I really wanted at the time. And I thought what really was important for me then was "to enjoy the game of golf". So, I decided to go with something that would help me swing more easily--o-size clubs. I caught my eyes on several sets based on reviews from several websites. After doing some homeworks, I narrowed down to Wilson Fat Shaft and Ping I3 O-Size. I liked Wilson for the technology claimed for those clubs, while I liked Ping for the brand and the custom fitting system they had. With the $299 price tag for new set of the Fat Shaft, I went for it. At this point, though I now want a set of Ping I3 O-Size, I never regret for the investment for this Wilson Fat Shaft. (I''m still using it.) I don''t have anything else (blades or any other popular clubs) to compare to since I have never hit any of those. But what I can tell now are 1) I hit the ball straight, very straight. 2) I hit quite far a half swing (I don''t do the full swing yet). I hit about 150 yards with 5 iron. 3) I''m breaking a 100! (My best score is 48 for nine holes, but my friend told me I would broke a 100 when I played 18 holes.)
