Fat Shaft irons for distance

Advantages: Distance
Disadvantages: None

The clubs I am talking about are regular steel shafted. The marketing line when I bought these clubs two years ago was that the fat shaft reduced the "twist" of the clubhead on mishit shots and so resulted in a straighter shot. Good marketing line. As I'm sure you all know there is no miracle cure in golf and so you can still hit bad shots with these clubs. Having said that, I would recommend these clubs. The main difference I found with the FS irons ...
...hit the mid and especially short irons. There was really no difference up to 5 iron, after that I found a considerable increase e.g wedge now flies 140 yards as opposed to 125 yards. All golf clubs have to suit the individual personally. By this I mean they have to look and feel right to you before you've hit the shot. These irons do that for me. The grip is first class and the club head look good behind the ball. I don't "see" the fat shaft now, ...

Advantages: Excellent feel

...golf clubs are the King Cobra Irons, I have been using these clubs now for about six months and my handicap has come down 12 shots. Not just luck but the excellent feel of these clubs, they have given me around 10-15 extra yards per club, i can now hit my 9 iron 145-150 and accurate. It is unbelievable the difference between these clubs and my old ones. These clubs are excellent for a golfer with a handicap of around 18 - 24 whose game is decent. ...

Advantages: Easy to line up and easy to get right weight on the putts
Disadvantages: --

I went to my local golf pro and asked what he thought what putters are easy to use and he recomended this one. I went to the local shop to buy one but i thought i should try it out first and I holed every putt on the practise putting green. So I bought it it has knocked off 5 shots off my handicap from 17 to 12. I havent had a three putt with it.

...can stand by the quality of ping and especially this iron. I still do own several of these irons although not in my current bag set up, I would class them in my back-up range and that says a lot for an iron that was produced around two decades ago. ...

...~ ~ The Wilson Sporting Goods Company began back in 1913, as the result of a slaughterhouse in Chicago looking for new and innovative ways to use the by-products of their gruesome trade.

Their first venture into the golf market was the manufacture of golf bags, using the hide of the animals they had slaughtered, ...
