From the Forums: I need more forgiveness in my irons – Looking for recommendations
In our forums, our members have been discussing the most forgiving irons currently on the market. WRXer ‘TheShark1’ is on the hunt for a new set of irons, saying:
“Currently gaming the Mizuno Pro 225’s but think I need more forgiveness in my irons. My well struck shots are real nice, but my mishits are not performing as good as I had hoped anymore. I really like hollow body irons so if I could find something more forgiving in a hollow body iron that would be great.
Open to any and all recommendations other than Ping. Can’t hit Ping irons at all.”
And our members have been sharing their best suggestions in our forum.
Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.
- AvidSwampThing66: “Another vote for the super forgiving and fast Paradym irons. They look really good for being a GI iron.”
- bobfoster: “I just went from MP20 MMCs to the new 245s in my scoring irons (just played my first round with them today). If you have a chance to try them, you might find them worth a serious look.”
- vman: “Shoot me down, but spend the money on lessons.”
- J_Tizzle: “i525s are great off the heel in my opinion.”

But the logo on their wedges is NOT a shamrock. It’s a four-leaf clover. An entire marketing campaign about the Irish and St Patrick’s Day, based on the wrong symbol! Looks like Callaway has been made aware of this mistake – last night they changed the name of the clubs to Lucky Clover instead of Shamrock!

How exciting! And I bet you can take it to McD’s and get a free shamrock shake while they’re in season too!!!

Gimmicks to sell bad products wow.. You should have made a forged version and it might would have worked. I have played Callaway wedges from the beginning, the X models are legendary!! But the MD3’s are the worse wedges ever. For the first time ever I bought a different brand wedges this year..I hope you fired who ever decided not to do forged this year.

Similar feedback from my playing partner. Loves the shape but hates the clicky feel and jumpy face. Forged Cally wedges have always felt great. Not this model though.
