Used/Demo Blackstone Irons
Excellent quality and looks, very confident addressing the ball with these clubs! Every swing seems built in, grooved and on balance!
Haven’t played a round with them yet, but spending a lot of time on the driving range practicing and getting use to them.
The Blackstone Irons work very well. I really like the one length and I have distances dialed in after a few trips to the range. The only issue I see, and it may just be me, on the shorter irons, I get dirt build up in the cavity in the back of the club. I have used cavity back clubs before, but most have a wedge shape. The blackstone have a true channel that I get soil in with almost every divot. Not a big issue, just have to buy yourself a stiff bristle brush with wire core you can bend to clean it out. A short tee could work, but you can't get the back of the channel with it.
Used/Demo Blackstone Irons
added yards to each iron shot. So am very pleased with the clubs
Great buy, worth every penny!!
Top quality used clubs offer was really the opportunity I was looking for to jump the fence and try one lenght. Not going back to traditional clubs anytime soon:
I purchased the 27° Thru 47° clubs (6-Gap) I kept my wedges because I did not want to play with longer wedges my goal was to make my iron‘s shorter.
It did take me a while to get used to my pitch shots under 100 yards But I’m really starting to score now from that distance.
Starting to get more distance on my “six iron”. Just need to convince my to use the same ball position.
Although I’m not hitting them as long as I would like to. My Misses leave me in a better position to get up and down.
I use the Arccos golf system so I get a pretty good read on what I’m actually doing. I’m confident it’ll just be a matter of time before I get the results I want.
I purchased a Demo set. They were in great condition.
I have been out on the course 4 times with my new Blackstone Irons.. Initially, I was chunking my hits quite a few times trying to find the revised pattern swing required for the irons .....but by the fourth-round consistency came into play. I was hitting the balls down the middle of the Fairway on a consistent basis. A major Improvement in my game! The only issue I found, being a six-foot-three muscular character I found the irons to be slightly too light. Ideally, the mass of the heads should be a few Oz heavier. But on the positive side, I've seen a major Improvement in my golf and my golfing experience. Very pleased with the purchase.
The chat room was very helpful An being able to purchase one of your demo sets helped the sale drastically !! Thank you
I purchased a full set of demo/used Blackstones, 3-LW and took them on vacation with me recently. Some info about me: I’m 6’3 and swing a driver around 112 mph with ball speeds around 160, though I can at times put it out farther when all is clicking. I have been playing Taylormade P790 with X100 Tour Issue shafts the last 3 seasons. Love my 6i and 8i, hate my 5i and 7i and regularly miss the green from easy spots with my PW and 9i thanks to pulled shots. I live in NE WI and the weather in the winter is brutal. I had been planning a full-bag renovation at Club Champion, but thinking about my game and reading about these clubs, it just made too much sense to my engineer brain…but I had some questions. Questions a trip to Aruba would answer over the course of a week of absolutely fascinating golf learning.
Question 1: they are cast…how do they feel?
Question 2: will the shafts hold up to my speed and sometimes violent transition? Would the spin be way too high…especially in constant 20-30+mph winds from the east on coastal links?
Question 3: what would really, really long sand and lob wedges be like?
The reality is that the feel of a shot hit on the screws is very, very pleasant with these clubs. I hit 4 and 5 irons on the button a number of times…after bunting one into the long stuff, pulling a couple and hitting them way shorter than I thought I should a few times. But on hole 6, after a snapped drive into the wind, I sizzled a 4i onto the green from 180 into the gale. I was dumbstruck how good that shot felt; how far it went into the wind and how it was sitting next to the stick when I got up there.
I had absolutely zero trouble with shots ballooning; only a couple short iron shots ran away from me down wind and I could accurately club up or down for what I was facing.
Lastly, after having some really good and really bad results with the 55 and 59, I have come sprinting back to my wedges. I am going to play the 51 for a while because it is so good on full shots, but my vokeys were back in the bag as soon as I got home. Some of it is that I haven’t had time to practice with these and the ball positions you need to play partial shots around the green, but a smaller swing radius makes more sense to me.
I played two rounds and had three range sessions with the wind straight in my face at Tierra Del Sol and have figured out how to hit several different shots with the Blackstones, but mostly they go were you point them…which for a 15.6 that longs for his days under 10, is a miracle.
I’ve built clubs and have done my own shafting, regripping, loft/lie bending etc for friends and family and am a huge believer in spine aligning clubs the way 1irongolf does. It makes a difference.
This is a wonderful concept and is very well executed. My P790s are on the trading block on Golfwrx as I write this. I did notice the black finish come off the shaft of the LW after a massive lash through some underbrush on a downwind par3 where I should have clubbed down a club or two more because of how pure and high I hit it and the rocky terrain left a number of silvery scratches on the soles and leading edges of several of the clubs…things you don’t see with a standard finish…but these things are good…really good.
Thanks for making a unique and outstanding product.
