Nike Golf Pro Combo OS Iron

Advantages: Trusted brand, forgiving
Disadvantages: Heavy, akward to keep clean

...I bought these to replace my Great White which use to be my Dad's. I wanted a good solid club that I could keep for few years and that would improve my game but not so much that was relying on the clubs and not my own technique. I had seen these in my local pro shop and I liked the way they looked as they are oversized and that gives me confidence. Other clubs that I was interested in were the Taylor Made RAC and MacGregor. The major deciding factor in my choosing of the Nike were the price, they were a lot cheaper then the Taylor Mades and looked more durable than the MacGregor. I was able to try out a 6 iron at my local range and instantly the difference was obvious. Maybe it's to do with the advances in club technology but they just gave a sweeter shot than my Great White's did. I was able to get the ball up higher straight... Read review

Advantages: Great for all ages and handicaps
Disadvantages: don't get a sand iron

You can buy a set of Slingshot irons these days for around £200 now from many online golf stores, the steel shaft ones are the ones my son has and he certainly likes steel shafts better than the graphite shafts of the DX.

...As I began to progress as a golfer I decided that I needed to splash out on a good set of Irons. My pro had told me that a good set of irons can tkae up to 3 strokes of your score. I think that he is wrong and that it is more like 5-6! These clubs are that good. Firstly the NDS stands for the Nike Distance Serires. So reading that you may think that you lose control if you use the set. That is definately not true as progressive offsetting technique throughout the set allows for perfect ball shaping. The wide sole of the club allows for excellent connection with the club and compared to the modern club these are relatively heavily. I found this extremely helpful as it stopped me hitting semi-fatted shots and topping my shots. THe NDS's are also cast from 431 stainless steel which is 25% softer than the average 17...
