JDM Driving Irons?

[K13]

Got a set of PRGR 2016 RS Forged. They seem to be about perfect - or at least, I’m in the honeymoon phase.
 

The set is 5-P, and I was thinking of pairing a driving iron replacing the 4 iron. Thought I’d check out JDM to see what’s out there, but it seems like it’s just not something JDM brands do much. 
 

Am I missing anything great?

Fourteen and PRGR started the DI craze many years ago. Ernie Els had a Fourteen HI-858 in his bag winning the 2002 British Open. PRGR 200i was Titanium with Tungsten weight plugs. Yonex Zero iron Z01, Honma TW-U, A Grind CMB, ...

Thanks for those. There are a couple I hadn’t yet seen, and a few I had. 
 

Many of those models are 5-10 years old at this point, so I guess I’d wonder if performance wise they’ll still stack up.

How could I forget this classic? Had it in my bag until I hit a hidden FW bunker rock & dinged it all up!  🤬

Some might find the offset to be too much, but it just works. Also it was the softest feeling DI for me, but it did have a Quadra 100i shaft in it, which is probably my favourite 🙂

do you guys like the 901 more than the 903 and 906 that came after?

[95124hacker]

Sorry no experience with 903 or 906

I share they same thoughts. 

 

I would love to know how Fourteen's 660 (& v2), 858 (& v2), and Type 7 Driving Irons hold up to today's standards.
