I wanted to go back to a more bladed design like my old Henry Hatton's. I found these clubs brand new in the box on Ebay for just $170 all in. I love them to bits a little shorter on distance i would say but the ball stays on line from the moment its struck, which is what a proper golf club should do. The clubs are quite upright and i only had to have them bent by 1* rather than the usual 2* (club fitter analysed me) surely there is not a better kept secret than these clubs for the money.

I have to agree with previous posters also. You catch yourself just staring at them as they are a true thing of beauty!

5***** good job Wilson these irons are perfect.

Hope that helps someone.

i've had these irons for over a year now but i've still been trying out the latest models of all the manufacturers but i've not found anything as soft and easy to hit. they look amazing at address with almost no offset. the feel is great throughout the swing. i would say that anyone who puts a half decent swing on it would benefit from these, they are just so easy to hit. easy to work the ball. the only problem i had was a struggle to keep the ball down, it wasn't too high but into the wind it was hard to hit the cut down punch shot. overall fantastic irons. enjoy

First, a confession: I USED to be in the 80s when I last played over 20 years ago. Had to stop due to physical problems.

After a good health turn, I started back up with a friend's Taylormade R7s. Forgiving but had difficulty hitting them directionally. Started trolling the 'net for forged irons (I started with forged blades a thousand years ago). This made me nervous because of the precision blades required. The Wilson Fi5 transition irons seemed like a decent compromise between pure blades and weighted perimeters. I took a flyer and bought them from The Golf Warehouse (3-PW, $345!!!). The clubs (R300 shafts, nice cord grips) arrived in pristine condition on the date they promised.

Let me tell you that I am deliriously happy with them. My buds have had to endure my giggling surprise when I hit my shots where I want them to go. The fear that I had about not being able to hit these decently was unfounded. The feel's there when I miss-hit. When the strike is spot-on, the buttery feel is an amazing reward.

Now, I have not yet wrangled consistent good smacks out of the 3 iron and that's okay. I'll get there. If you've considered these clubs, pull the trigger on this price.

Did I mention how elegant, trim and classic the design is? Sometimes I think I must look like an idiot, staring away at my irons because they are beautiful.

Indulge your obsession. Go 'head.

Thank you for such a great site, folks. The reviews have been invaluable in my decision making process.

Taylormade R7s,

One of the sweetest irons I've ever hit. Low, boring trajectory that just drops the ball gently on the green. Short irons are deadly accurate and can definitely pull the string on them for spin control. Long irons are extremely workable and relatively easy to hit for forged.

Hit one of the best 5 irons of my life this past weekend. From 210 yds, had to aim over a lake and hit a 15 yard draw around a tree, and hit it 8 feet. Missed the putt but that's operator error not equipment. No way could do that with current set.

Saw current price drop to $399 and that's what got me interested again. Bought them 9/10 (condition rating) off eBay for $153. Couldn't not make the purchase. Overall, wonderful iron. Wouldn't recommend for someone over 12 handicap but fore serious golfers, great asset.

I've always wanted to play with a set of forged irons. As I don't play every week, my game can be a bit inconsistent. When I saw these at such a good price, (S$899) I new it was time to change. The first round out I struggled as I had been using Wilson RM Fatshafts with a stiff shaft for the last 5 years or so and the salesmans comments must've also been playing on my mind as they always say that forged clubs are more difficult to hit. I've now played a good dozen games and wouldn't want any oher iron in my bag. They look beautiful, set up so easily and with the Tempered Gold shafts I have so much control the shots stay right on line right through to the 3 iron. Great distance between irons as I noitced I'm hitting the 6 iron 160 meters, 4 iron 180 meters and the 3 iron 190 off the fairway. A fat shot results in maybe 15 meter distance loss but no injury! I'm not surprised everyone has pretty much rated them 5/5.

Firstly, thanks to this website for providing such a useful resource. I spent much time here reading comments from people regarding clubs mainly. There wasn't much of a decision for me to make when it came to choosing new clubs. I am a traditionalist and this has been born from my very first set of irons which were Hogan Apex back in the 80s. I absolutly loved those clubs and still do. There is nothing that compares to the feel of a well designed forged iron and Hogan for me, are the pioneers in such design. So why, you may ask, did I not decide to choose Hogan this time round? Its simple. As much as I do highly regard Hogan irons I also want to try out clubs from other companies. Wilson have been around for a long time and are a well established sports company. They know a thing or two about sports. However, of course the main thing was trying out different clubs in the range over a period of months. You have to have a good idea of what you are looking for when it comes to golf clubs. I rarely pay attention to shop staff recognising that in this day and age its just a mass market of suppliers all trying to sell you their own brands and not having a care or interest in your requirements and as a customer. Sorry, but may I use this opportunity of saying how disappointed I am in the general attitude of sales staff these days? Rarely do you find a polite and personal service and I will only shop with such outlets. So, back to club choice. For me, and I suggest for most, go with a club that you like the look of, you like the feel of, the club that instills confidence and the one that you just know you are going to hit well with as you line up to the shot. Golf is all about confidence, nothing really to do with modern technology. "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." Its the golfer, not the equipment. The Wilson Fi5 clubs felt right. They had everything Hogan Apex blades did with a distinctiveness of their own. I liked the design, I liked the way they address themselves to the ball due to the weight, like others have written, I hate these oversize monster clubs that are offered from manufacturers now that seem to be taking the golf club into a new design era, one that I don't wish to go with. These clubs are a lovely, traditional, simple but well-engineered design. What more do you want or need to know? I am 100% satisfied. For me it will always be this type of club and Wilson have done a fantastic job with this model. I think that Callaway taking over Hogan has also put me off Hogan clubs now too, I thought I should drop that one in. I hate it when large companies buy out others and you lose the uniqueness that a reputed company was once known for. While the Hogan clubs available do look interesting and typical of a Hogan classic, I just can't help but wonder if the same attention to detail and perfection has been incorporated into the design. These days its all cheap manufactured clubs in Asia with ridicuous high mark ups in the Western World. What a tragedy for industry but again, I am going off on a personal tangent which I should try to avoid to help you, the buyer make an informed choice. I hope this has been useful in some way. In short, I really am very satisfied with these clubs. They have met and exceeded my expecations and I they are from a very well established name in sports, regardless of which Pro's use them and which do not. When you choose a club, Wilson, Hogan or other, if it feels right it is right. Its like falling in love, your heart knows. Trust your instincts and enjoy this wonderful game.

Hogan Apex blades. Simply a marvel. Never played with any other club from any other manufacturer that comes even close to these renound and timeless golf clubs. Currently using Titlesit DCI 762 Irons which I hit like a dream but, I am notexcited about them or feel they are anything special at all. There is just something so wonderful about carrying and using Hogans. If you don't believe me, try for yourselves and no, I am not working for Hogan or any other golf company, but I do strongly believe in giving praise where praise is due. I just love Hogan golf clubs. Have done for 25 years and nothing has changed.

Replaced my 15 years old set of irons last summer. I wanted a forget set of irons. Tested almost all major brands and the Wilson Fi5 fitted me at once. Now the more I play the more I am happy with my choice. They are easy to hit, sounds is nice and best of all when you these clubs in the sweetpot the feeling in your hands is incredible....

Ball flight is optimal, not too high as it was with my old clubs. Easy to hit also with the longer irons from fairway.

Customer Service

Ordered with extra thick grips. Next time I change the grips I'll probably make the shafts a little longer although Wilson specifiactions are more upright and with longer shafts than for example Mizuno.

Wilson has finely come to their senses by making these extraordinary irons. The loft progression thru the set is admirable for maximum distance accuracy while at the same time there is incredible playability. There is a certain feel to them also that commands attention when addressing the ball.

I used to hit Titleist (990 and 690)- Wilson Fi5 hit and feel better than either of my old models. They look so darn good at address, you just know you're going to hit it sweet. Does not feel like you're looking down at some gigantic overdone club. These things are the real deal, and Wilson has made a huge comeback. Hit them for the very first time today, and scored my personal best at my golf course- that is more than just coincidence.
