Nike SQ MachSpeed X Irons
This is a good set of irons. Don't believe the hype about extra
distance and all that. I am a 10 handicap and have used 4 different
sets of irons over the past 25 years. Iron technology does make clubs
more forgiving not longer. What makes clubs longer is the fact that
club manufacturers gradually decrease the loft of the pitch thru 4 iron,
therefore making them longer. That's why all club sets come with gap
wedges now when there was no such thing 20 years ago. Now the standard
loft on a pitch is drastically different than that of a sandy so
manufactures had to bridge the gap. No pun intended. All that being
said these clubs set up nicely, they are solid even high on the club
face and out on the toe, 2 of my favorite places to strike the ball on a
bad day. The grips are sorry. The worst i have ever seen. They are
paper thin and you better have a couple of newish gloves if you play in
high humidity especially in the mornings. Best thing you can do is
anticipate having to buy new grips right off unless you play in a low
humidity type of environment or never get them wet at all. I already
replaced mine with Golf Pride half cords and I haven't had the clubs for
a month yet. If you are using an older set of irons or are thinking of
changing from blades to cavity backs you will see a difference in the
distance because of what I said before but you will definitely be happy
with the extra margin for error you get with the perimeter weighting
these clubs offer. I would have rated these clubs higher if not for the
POS grips Nike used.
