Rocketbladez tour irons, anyone gaming?

[ldh692002]

Hey guys just picked up 3-pw kbs stiff for 350 brand new. Anyone playing these, what's your thoughts? Currently gaming Adams CMB. 10 handicap currently just looking for a fun backup set.

 

Thanks

I hit em at a demo day last year. I woulda had no problem playing them. Good flight and distance, but I didn't care for the feel/sound much. Lots different then what I play and like. I could get used to that though I'm sure. Where'd you get 'em? Sounds like you got a deal.

[ldh692002]

Picked them up from eBay taylormade reseller they are dirt cheap makes me happy I didn't drop the $ for them last year

[sherwin1987]

How are they compared to the CMBs? I'm in the market for a back up set and rocketbladez tour are in the running. Which shafts do you have in each?

[ldh692002]

Cmb's I have c taper stiff soft stepped once. The rocketbladez tour are kbs tour 90 stiff. Only demoed the rbz tour never hit them too solid but I thought for the price why not. I will keep you posted on how they play.

I borrowed a buddies 8 iron today on a par 3 playing 145 into the wind. I almost hit my first hole in one. It ended up like 18" past the hole.

I picked up a set as well. I've always liked them since their release. I will use them as my back up, but right now I'm enjoying them. I think they are the poor mans version of the ap2.

In fact, I prefer them over the ap2's.

[ldh692002]

Hit them first time today I was blown away .....possibly feel better than my cmb irons. Long high piercing shots on all irons I feel easier to hit than the cmb too.

I liked them until I re-shafted them with C-taper lites. Good ball flight with the KBS tour, nice to look at. I went with the TM TP CB this year rather than reshafting back to KBS tours

[CactusGolf]

I'm taking a serious look at them right now. The RBZ Tour and the SpeedBlade. I'm currently playing a set of X Hot Pros so they're pretty similar.

I picked up a set this year. I'm coming from a long line of forged Macgregor clubs and these don't feel bad at all. Solid clubs for sure! Very easy to hit HIIIGGGGHHHHHH

[Judge440]

Just bought a set. Like cheating coming from mb's.

[MJisGOAT]

You can find really good deals on these. Hopefully I can find the same deal on the 14 TP MC this time next year.

Been playing a set for about 7 or 8 months and I love them. Thought about upgrading to either the new MCs or CBs, but I really don't see a reason to. Not much of a improvement, if any, if you ask me. I'll spend the money on something else.

[pencilholder]

I'm playing these with DG XPs. I popped around a lot of irons leading up to these but I'm going to stick with them for a while.

[neverhitsfairway]

Great irons. Been playing them for a few months and definitely like them more than the big cavity backs I was playing before. Hitting the tours farther and more solidly than my last set

[lordemsworth]

For those playing the Tours - anyone notice a gapping problem going from shouted to non-slotted irons?

This was an observation from last year.

[ldh692002]

Hit them at a local course (closed for the day Chicagoland snow in May) I hit all the irons a few times maybe 20 balls. Eyeing the shots I would say possible on gapping problems but really haven't got them out there enough yet. Ready to get some rounds with these under my belt.

I am playing Rbladez Tour 3-PW. I like them MUCH better after reshafting them with DG X200. I liked the feel from the stock KBS shafts, but they spun too much and a couple were bending. Forced my hand. I don't have any weird gap from 7 (slot) to 8. I think these irons are very solid and forgiving. I hit them maybe a couple yards longer than my Adams Pro A12's. Not much difference there. It's the forgiveness that makes these stand out. They play like a super game-improvement club. It will take a lot for me to move on.

[neverhitsfairway]

I had know gapping problems at all between the 7 and 8

[iceman666]

This is my second season playing the RBZ Tour iron (GW to 3 iron, KBS C-tapers Stiff Flex). . . I have approximately 90 rounds with these irons, and I absolutely love them.

The performance is great. The C-tapers result in minimal dispersion, while the RBZ club heads are relatively compact and allow for great ball flight / trajectory, and a fair amount of work ability

Prior to the RBZ Tour irons, I played the prior TM Tour Preferred (MB / CB combo set with C-taper X-flex). While I liked the PW to 6 iron MBs, I never really liked the CB 5 to 3 irons.

[razz11]

I haven't noticed any gapping problems at all between the 7 & 8 irons...

[GolfnCPA]

Fantastic irons...no need for me to switch to anything else. Second season, and just now grooving with them.

[ldh692002]

First round in the books and these irons have amazed me. Compared to the cmb(which I still love) these are so much easier to hit. Was hitting 3 iron off tee on tight fairways and getting 225 carry with roll some holes 245 but laser straight. Long irons are simple to hit the whole set seams together very well. Best 350 I've spent in golf!

Way late but I'm new here and just dumped mp 64 on ebay and picked up the tours (3-p) for 306 on a bid from an authorized ebay retailer...got em in kbs stiff 120. Playing first round with them for Father's Day. I am used to forged but honestly they feel better in the hand than 64's did. Can't wait to see how they feel and sound as some say they love it or some say they hate it. I'm not too picky, especially at that price.

Update: played first round with them and honestly can say they feel just as 'buttery' than the 64s and they're cast. Ball flight with the kbs stiff was really nice to look at. The weight of these clubs with the 120 gram shaft and clubhead just feel right. Longer for me than the 64's by half to a club but it was the first 18. Way more forgiving on misfits. This is my first TM set and I know a lot of people talk down about TM but I'm not sure why. These clubs are really great, especially for the price they're going for. I'm always using top flite d2 feel and these go great together. I can't wait to hit them again.

[muxi87]

I love em still. Best steal out there for what they're going for...

[MtlJeff]

they are just normal "meh" irons for me. I have a friend who owns them as is a lefty...i've hit them a bunch of times (we have an unofficial club exchange program LOL). They are good irons, i'd have no problem playing them, they look nice.

But distance was the same as any other irons, feel was nothing special IMO. There's a lot of irons in this segment and these didn't stand out in any way to me

SLDR irons were more of the same, just hit them at a demo day

[Dirk 23]

I played with the TM Burner 2.0 irons for 2 years and after my handicap dropped to 10 I bought them in this week. Went to the range for the first time yesterday and I am surprised by the high ball flight I am getting with them, really really high ball flight. They feel solid and sound good and look good. Will take 4-5 rounds to get used to them but loving them already.

[dunn]

Not sure if you were catching the 64 pure, cut its hard to find a better feeling iron than that...they are demanding though....gamed both sets, 64 hands down in feel and playability....rbz tours are far easier to use though...

[venturagolfer87]

Picked up a barely used set a couple months ago after playing Idea Pro Golds for a few years. The feel is a bit firmer than the Ideas for sure, but nothing even close to "harsh feeling." Picked up half a club distance, and haven't noticed any weird gaps between the 7 and 8. Playing with DGS300, interested to try some KBS tours in them after this year. Anyone who has gone from these to the tour preferred MCs or CBs, is there any noticeable performance or forgiveness advantage from the newer clubs/deeper slot?
