I ordered the Used/Demo set (GW-4 Iron) and I was amazed at the condition they came in. They looked brand new and I would have never known that they had been used before. I also like the larger grips that come on the clubs.
As far as playing, my first range session went great. I noticed that my shots were going consistently straighter, though I didn’t really track distance so I don’t know how much differently I was hitting them from my original clubs. I still am struggling a bit with the “longer” irons like my 4 and 5, but I’m fairly certain it is my fault. I know that I will eventually be able to be more consistent with them as I get used to the swing more.
Overall, I am very happy with these irons. They came in great condition and I believe they will benefit my golf game in the long run!
With these irons. As you get to 5,4,3 iron. Does the weight and or flex change slightly to accommodate launch as to get proper distances between irons

Hi! The weight and flex do not change. The only difference in our irons is a precise 4° loft angle progression for accurate distance gaps of 10 yards between the irons. Thank you!
Are the shafts steel or graphite?

Hi Robert, all our irons and fairway woods are shafted with our optimized steel shafts. We only offer our optimized steel shafts in our irons and fairway woods. The design of our golf shafts in combination with our proprietary Shaft Optimization Process produces a perfectly balanced golf club (other brands use stock shafts with no balance criteria). Once this perfect balance is achieved the concept of shaft flex disappears and the golf club will perform at its peak performance level regardless of swing speed or strength. You can read more about them here: https://1irongolf.com/pages/our-brand.
So how far does a 5 iron go in relation to a 7 iron? Longer irons go farther not only because of less loft but also a longer shaft. ?

Hi Ray, shaft length is only part of the equation. In a conventional iron set the club heads are progressively weighted so your swing speed will vary with each iron. Also, the lie angle, bounce angle, and degrees of offset vary in a conventional iron set. All of those have to be equal in order for you to have one consistent swing which our irons do and they are custom built to you as an individual. The only difference in our irons is a precise 4° loft angle progression for accurate distance gaps of 10 yards between the irons. You will hit your 5 iron 20 yards farther than your 7 iron. Thank you!
This makes perfect sense. I hit laser targeted shots between my 6&8 irons. Yet outside those, l miss increasingly wide of target, either way. Years ago l cut my driver shaft to 3 wood length, to find the fairway and l did. I’m 72 and wish l would have learned of one iron tech long ago. Ikr be buying a set soon. Good science makes good sense.
Do they come in left hand?
