On looks alone, they blow any current offering out of the water. Matching gap and sand wedges too? I can't wait.

I Don't understand why they don't sell these in the states, I guess Srixon's afraid of success?

This is what we're all hoping, yes.

took a long look at the 545's and 745's on the srixon japan website. comparing the spec's for loft, offset, etc., it seems the specs blend very well and would need little tweaking to make a fluid combo set. extremely interested in seeing these in person.

It's entirely possible I've already created my wishlist along these lines:

i was thinking something similar, only keeping with all 745's through the short irons.

And there's a really good chance I'll do that as well, I kinda like the added forgiveness, and now that I've had it for two years (X Hot Pros), I don't know if it would be good for me to go back to straight on blade low irons, though it's not like I mis-hit the 9/PW often.

It's like suit shopping. You'll always stop by the three-piece first because they look so darn classy. Then you realize, you know what...the two-piece looks mighty fine as well. Boom, combo set.

Haha, well it makes more sense now since I've never been a 3-piece suit kinda guy.
Anyways, my preference for keeping the 745's through the short irons isn't so much for forgiveness per se, but mainly due to a more likely wider sole and slightly greater bounce since I'm a digger, particularly more so in the short irons (and this is all just assumption until I actually get to see them in person).

very J40's ish looking hey? maybe a deeper cavity?
[/quote]

J40 CB was my first thought as well. And that's a good thing...a VERY good thing.

Very J40 CB which is very i-506 looking as well. I tried the J40 but they couldn't kick the 506 out of my bag. I love my Srixon irons.

Found out these are going to be available some time in September. Local guy got to hit them and he said they were awesome. Similar in appearance to the J40 CB but shorter blade length. I will be ordering a set once available. Probably going 3-5 745 6-PW 945. Might do something with the utility iron in the 3-4 and 945 5-PW. I am excited to try them out to say the least!
