Little update on mine: Feel is great on center strikes, much like that marshmallow feel we all love and expect to have when we put a good swing on it. Off center strikes are not too punishing, especially those dreaded toe hits. These heads provide plenty of feedback the better players want and you don't need to look at the face to know exactly where you hit it. Launch is much higher than what I'm used to out of my MB's, to be expected, but, even my buddy who plays AP2's with PX 6.5's launched my DBM's higher than his clubs. Shaping shots were a piece of cake, too. Very easy to make the ball do what I wanted with good predictability. Aesthetics is where I like these clubs the most, especially the thin top line similar to blades but the slightly longer heel to toe gives great confidence at address. I won't comment on their distance until I have the lofts checked and lies adjusted if I need. Overall I think these heads provide super game improvement performance with a players look and workable flight.

I absolutely love my DBM irons that i have had in and out of the bag for about 3 years..tried many OEM offerings, wishon heads and recently have come back to the DBMs. They are the softest feeling on center shots, forgiving enough for a 9 handicapper and look great. I have them currently paired with ozik program q95 shafts and they are amazing for distance control. The best distance control I have had in years. Also got the M series + wedges and they are amazing as well. Likley will keep these irons for a while which is unusual for me. Was thinking of getting a back up set and will want to do it when there is a sale and free shipping.

Hey,

How's the finish holding up, and about how many rounds over those 3 years?

Yeah, I know but one could throw an offer out there for much less than $500 and you never know.

 

I did.

 

I am a sucker for black irons and was going to buy a set of Steelhead Pros with black XP95 shafts.

 

For $750 Less I figured these are worth a shot.

I've just picked up a set of these heads which look fantastic. A bit worried about high launch based on some of the posts above. I have a set of C Taper stiff shafts which I could put in although would prefer to go with C Taper Lite but worried about too high launch. 6 iron SS is 87mph.

 

Any experience of C tapers in these bad boys ?

 

Thanks

(Replying to my own post from two years ago): Someday has arrived. I just picked up a set of these heads from the BST, going to install some black TT AMT Tour White shafts (pulls from Cobra irons).
