Spo far so good. these are as advertised. I was a bit concerned about losing distance, but that is not the case.
Bought set of irons also… couldn’t be happier.. great clubs great company
I love them. They’re very easy to hit and they launch quickly. my previous one length clubs from a major manufacturer, were too strongly lofted, and I had so much trouble getting the ball up in the air. I get a much more consistent, strike with the one irons than my old clubs.
I love these clubs. I had a set of Callaway one length, wanted new ones and saw your website. I like these a lot better, love the weight of them. Had friends who liked them also, and are thinking about getting some.Thanks again for making such fantastic clubs.
I love these iron covers. The window offers a glimpse of which club you are pulling. Also, you don't have to worry about which club gets which cover if you're on the range.
I just recently picked up golf again after a 6-year hiatus. I have a full 1-LW set of Ping Zing 2’s as my player set and I just learned about the single length irons. I bought the used version of these since they were the cheapest single length set I could find. I’ve got four rounds and a few driving range sessions and at least 20 hours of pitching @ 50 yards and here are my impressions so far:
Appearance – 3/5. They remind me of my Knight irons when I first started golfing as a teenager. Nothing special, kind of dumpy looking. The topline isn’t distracting and the face finish is okay.
Fitment – 3/5. While the fitment calculator is great, I think that should just be a reference point. I’m 6’3” in my shoes with a 37” wrist to floor measurement. The calculator said I should get the 38” club so I went with it. Swinging what is, essentially, a 5-iron for every club is interesting for sure. However, I think feel should be highlighted in the fitting section as the more important metric and if I could do it all over again, I would actually go an inch shorter on the 3-P.
Feel – 4/5. These are heavy! I would say they are comparable to my copper beryllium Ping wedges. Definitely, takes some getting used to. Mishits are going to put way more torque into your hands and joints so be wary if you have “chunk” tendencies. When you hit these flush, it’s hard to describe. You KNOW you’ve hit it well. Again, I think it’s the weight…it's like when you hit a full swing sand wedge…it just feels different than when you hit a more typical cavity back iron.
Ball Flight – 5/5. Any club that would normally be shorter than whatever length you get launches quite a bit higher despite the stronger lofts (compared to traditional lofts not the new player improvement lofts). They hang in the air forever which is cool to watch but if you play where there’s a lot of wind, you will need to be aware of that. Great for shots into the green for sure. The three iron is essentially a short 2 iron. Roughly the same trajectory too but averages about 10-15yds shorter than a regular 2 iron. When compared to my Ping 3-iron, it’s goes the same distance with slightly less trajectory but it runs out quite a bit more. My Ping 3-iron averages 230 yds with a max roll out to 250. The Proline matches that for most shots but will roll out anywhere from 250 to a ridiculous 284 yds in the right conditions!!!! I haven’t had a reason to use my driver off the tee on even the longest of par 5s. Interestingly, everything from 5 down is within 5-10 yds of my normal irons. I haven’t hit my 4 iron more than 3 times so I don’t really have data on that.
Wedges – 4/5. Having wedges that are 38” is just too weird to get used to and they’re a nightmare for pitching/chipping if you don’t choke down basically to where a normal wedge would be. I’m sure, over time, you can adapt the swing to use them at full length in such a fashion but breaking over 30 years of “feel” is tough. I think the longest I would want to go is 36”. The rest of the irons are fine at the longer length. A full swing will generate enough spin to stop within a foot or so and pitching is roughly the same. Chipping has been tough to gauge because of the length but they don’t see to impart as much spin as a normal set of wedges.
Overall – 19/25. I like the single length concept and getting the cheaper floor models are a great way to experiment without shelling out the money for Avodas. The one length concept allows you to work on your consistency through basic repetition. You’re basically practicing the same setup and swing for everything but pitching/chipping. I advise everyone to figure out your optimal wedge length via feel before ordering. The biggest downside, if buying new, would be the price. I think these are quite overpriced compared with Cobra’s which are of a much higher quality and offer more options for shafts, grips, lie angles, and lofts. I wish they offered a 14* 1 iron, 17* 2 iron and a had their 3 iron closer to 19-19.5*.
I have only used the Nova hybrid irons twice at the range. So far, the feel and performance are amazing! I will be using them next week in Bandon. Can't wait!
Results were instantaneous. I had quit playing golf years ago because of frustration. So many stances. So many swing planes. So many ball positions. It was just too much to practice in the limited time I had. Consistency was immediately improved. The biggest hurdle so far has been to remember that I’ll use the same swing for the 5 iron as I will the 9 iron. All I’ve done so far is hit ball’s at the range so I can’t really say how my game is affected but my 1 Iron clubs have definitely made hitting golf balls fun again.
While I love my 1-Irons, I wish the 5, 4, and 3 Irons got progressively heavier as I seemed to have capped out my range.
Current Club Ranges:
LW - 115 Yards
SW - 125 Yards
GW - 135 Yards
PW - 145 Yards
9I - 155 Yards
8I - 165 Yards
7I - 175 Yards
6I - 185 Yards
5I - 185 Yards
4I - 185 Yards
3I - 185 Yards
Do to each club head weighing around 225 gm, I'll always cap out at around 185 yards of range. If possible, I'd love for y'all to make a 5, 4, and 3 iron heads that get progressively heavier in weight to overcome this cap.
Desired Club Ranges:
5I - 195 Yards
4I - 205 Yards
3I - 215 Yards
In the event that y'all ever produce a set of progressively heavier 5, 4, and 3 Irons that add ten yards per club, I'd happily purchase them in a heartbeat.
Great club. Just what I've been looking for. Easy to hit.
So far I have 3 rounds and a couple of range days on my new clubs. I wish I had bought these years ago when I first saw them. One stance and one swing, it makes sense and is very comfortable. Everything is straight which is helping keep the ball in play. When I flush the ball I have gained at least one extra club length if it is not quite flush I still get the same distance as my old clubs. A little more work on my part and I will be flushing every shot. Sure wish I had bought these clubs years ago.
These covers fit the clubs well and I like the clear plastic to identify which club I want.
Hello,
I'm really lovin the 7 and 9 fairway woods. only a little disappointed that they no longer come with the "Lamkin oversize prema wrap ACE grips" Which is what is on all my other 1 iron clubs
I bought these clubs after not being able to play for two years. I had both knees replaced last year and decided that I would start fresh this year. It took two large buckets at the driving range to find a good tempo and was pleasantly surprised at how consistent my ball strikes were. Very pleased with my purchase.
The club is amazing. Once I learn how to hit it straight. This will be my go to club.
I found that the clear coating finish on the striking surface is peeling back. This will only spread and detract from the nice black finish. Is there anything you can do for me to make this right?
Thanks,

I was skeptical of this uncanny design but after only two 9 - hole rounds in my League I’m beginning to think its innovation is truly something special. The ball rolls off the face & on line like no other putter I have ever used. Effortless is the word that comes to mind to describe it. Made some tough clutch putts that I have struggled with in the past. Will be playing 18 this week on a very challenging course. If there’s a way to give an update here I will after a few more rounds.
The set as a whole is amazing! I’ve always wanted to try a set that was custom fit to me and all one length. Watching golfers adjust posture for each club, myself included, just seemed to add extra to the process and I found it unnecessary. After getting mine last year I decided a gap wedge was needed so I ordered a 51°. Love it! These are by far the best clubs I’ve ever hit!
Love my clubs! A lot easier to work on one swing to get consistency.
To be clear, customer service was exemplary throughout my entire experience, but these clubs just didn’t work for me. I’m 78yo with a swing speed that would make a sloth’s movements seem fast, which I think contributed to the fact that there was almost no variance in distance between clubs. Another contributing factor is these clubs are heavy -2.5 oz heavier than my corresponding club. Of course my clubs are graphite, and these are steel shafted. They should offer graphite on all their clubs, not just their hybrid sets. I just don’t thinks these will work for seniors with low club head speed.
I already had a set of single length irons, so I knew what I was getting into. First thing I noticed was when I did the home measurements I would up with clubs a couple inches longer than my other set. Makes a big difference. These clubs swing so nice and the contact is solid. I am very pleased with this set. Now if they could do something about my putting....
These clubs are ideal for me...perfect shaft length and kick, makes it easy to get a consistent alignment and setup up and down the bag. I love the feel when I hit the sweet spot, which is happening a lot more often than with other clubs.
HIGHLY recommended!
