FULL FAT please

Advantages: feel, accuracy, distance
Disadvantages: none yet

...several years ago now that Wilson developed the new Fat Shaft technology. I thought at first that it made so much sense that the other manufacturers would follow suit but that was not the case, however, I still like the idea and it has helped my game (I keep thinking about that old saying - a bad workman always blames his tools?!) I have been playing golf for 6 years and recently swapped my first set, bought for my by my hubby for a new set of Wilson ...
...I believe that the Wilson Fat Shaft technology has the right idea for these clubs. With club head sizes increasing over the years, it makes sense to increase the shaft diameter producing less torque which means less twisting which means greater accuracy. A fatter shaft results in significanlty larger tip diameter, depending on the type of clubs. Wilson Fat Shaft iron's tip diameter is, .500", Hyper Carbon Graphites .535" (compared to the standard ...

Review of Wilson Fat Shafts Irons

The Best of Performance Irons

Advantages: Fantastic looks, great forgiveness, good distance
Disadvantages: Not suitable for beginners or the very low handicaps?

...I was taken by some Wilson clubs and I must admit I find many of their clubs fantastic to look at and the Pi5 are no exception! In the Wilson Staff series there are various degrees of golf club in terms of the standard of player the clubs are aimed at. This begins with the new Di7 model (Distance irons with a larger sole to reduce the effects of off-centre hits) which is the most forgiving. Next is another new model, the Ci6 which is aimed at mid-handicappers; ...
...Personally I believe the entire Wilson Staff range to be beautiful golf clubs. I believe that a statement of just how good these irons are is the fact that tour players Padraig Harrington and Jesper Parnevik choose to play them over the more advanced clubs in the range! In terms of technical detail the Pi5 is very strong too. As previously mentioned the sole width alters the harder the club is to hit. Also the heads feature thinner top lines than ...

Review of Callaway FT-iQ Driver

Great golf clubs at good price but dangerous ...

Advantages: Real good price
Disadvantages: Dangerous defect with head detaching from shaft

Hi all, My comment would have been exactly the same as the one by 'beanie8844' till several days ago. But today I've to come up with one important negative point which is I have one of my clubs (P-wedge) turned into 2 pieces after about one month of use on pratice only. More precisely, the club 's head is detached from its shaft & luckily not during a strike. I must also say I've never hit whatsoever 'floor' w/ this club. Above all, what bothers ...

Review of Chicago SGS Mens Golf Complete Set

Solid Set of Nike Slingshots here

Advantages: Control, Distance/Power, Durable, Good Looking
Disadvantages: not much...

To be as straight forward as possible, I think that these clubs are great. They have are very easy to use, and produce great results. I could tell only a few days after I got them from a friend that these were the real deal. They easily added distance and accuracy to my game, and for that alone I was satisfied. On the negative side, I cannot really find any gaping disadvantages to these clubs. I was completely satisfied with them, as they served ...
...and used. These irons obviously aren't going to be your top end pro irons, but for the casual golfer or for someone who gets out a handful amount of times in a month, like myself, these are perfect. Great value for a wonderful set of clubs that will last me quite some time. ...
