Cavity back irons with little offset?


IHFN

Recommended Posts

What are some cavity back irons or forgiving irons that have little offset? I've found that it's offset that causes me a lot of problems. I just can't line up the club well when there is offset. I always feel like I'm aiming dead left which makes me compensate for it. And I just can't get myself to trust it.

Because of this, I've been playing blades, but want something more forgiving. I follow a pattern of getting blades and hitting my irons better and more accurate, but the misses hurt. So I move to some cavity back, but then the offset makes it to where I rarely hit great shots like with blades. But with CB's my misses aren't as awful. I'd like to find the offset of a blade with some forgiveness.

 

To give an example of too much offset, I'm currently playing P760's and they have too much offset.

From the Cobra site, it looks like the CB's have the same offset as the MB's now? I had the initial King MB/CB's but the CB's had more offset. Did this change?

iBlades actually have a little bit more offset than the P760's and the Srixon's (both the 65's and 85's) have even more offset than both of those.

All 919 models have more offset than the P760's, including the Tour (which is really disappointing because I like everything else about them). What about Honma? Their website is confusing, they look like they don't have offset, but the site lists it strangely so not sure if it's a lot or not. Anyone have an address pic of a Honma iron?

If this were 15 years ago, I'd tell you to look at the Peerless Tours. Quite low offset, and pretty forgiving. A bit annoying to adjust due to the hosel wing, though.

 

I like Prop's Maltby options. Some good low offset numbers there.

In the same boat, wanted a cb with low offset a little newer than my old maxfli black dots and landed on the PSI tours. I don't mind the face/sole slots but some people do so be sure to get them a try to make sure they don't bother you.

I stockpiled some sets of these.

Not so hard to find good sets still.

The nickel plating on these irons keeps them nice and shiny.

Agree on the king forged tours. One of the least amount of offset for the style of head. Wish they would continue it but without the insert.

I second this......MP18 SC is closer to a blade than a traditional CB iron, but it's a great choice for low offset "CB" iron that is a bit more forgiving than a traditional blade.
