The flight of the ball is described as a low riser with lots of spin.
The speaker is satisfied with the distance they achieved with the club.
They note the large face of the club, giving them confidence in off-centered strikes.
The top line of the club is described as thin and squared, preferring more modern designs with rounded edges.
The club has minimal offset and cavity back design for more advanced players.
The club has perimeter weighting for higher MOI and forgiveness on mishits.

The user describes the performance of the golf clubs on the range, highlighting the compactness, nice cut, and beautiful appearance.
The user notices how the sole of the club allows for a smooth interaction with the turf and easy ball release.
The user does not sense a significant difference in turf interaction between different irons in the set.
There is a bit too much spin on the golf course, potentially affecting the control of the ball.
The user is pleased with the feel of the forged irons, particularly noting the soft impact.
The user mentions the importance of the pitching wedge, wanting it to have spinning control and a smaller profile.
The pitching wedge in this set blends nicely with the user's specialist wedges.
The user suggests trying out the pitching wedge for feel and control before purchasing a set of irons.
Generating spin from shots in rough or semi-rough is crucial for better control of the golf ball.
Wet conditions can result in a loss of spin between the clubface and the ball.

Grass caught between club face and ball reduces spin and leads to flyers.
Being short-sided makes it difficult to get up and down.
Hitting a six iron from rough can still provide control and decent trajectory.
The spin numbers for these irons are lower compared to standard pitching wedges.
Spin numbers for 7 iron and 5 iron are slightly higher than usual.
The three iron provides around 4,000 spin and goes 193 yards.
The cost of these irons ranges from £150 to £299 online.
Left-handed sets are also available.

Delofting the club slightly can reduce spin, but it may affect the offset and soulle of the club.
Experimenting with different golf balls, such as the Titleist AVX, can help reduce spin and increase distance.
