Wilson Fi5 Combos

wholeinwon · December 28, 2005

Has anyone played these clubs?

How are they?

How do they compare to the other combo sets such as the 735.CM's or the J33's?

I can get them for $599 Cnd. plus trade in my Callaway X-14 Pro Series for an additional $180 off...so in total i am paying about $420 plus tax for a brand new set of these.

If I'm not mistaken these are Wilsons top iron?

Thanks for your help

Never tried the Wilsons but I can definatley suggest you go for the J33 Combos or the Titleist 735cm over the Wilsons.

i played a few rounds wiht them....solid clubs but i think that the long irons could of been more forgiving. i'd put the wilsons above the 735's but below the j33's. the B'stones are just hands down amazing irons. the nicest part of the wilsons were the short irons.....great looking blade imo.

I've only seen 1 person have them in the bag and that was Bart from Big Break IV! I've always thought they looked nice but have never been able to hit them, see them in person, or read a good review on them!

Thanks guys,

I'm gonna go with these clubs and for the price i dont think they can be beat. The 735CMs are over $1000 Cnd. so basically my thinking is How much better can the Titleist's be? They won't be 2x the price better so the Wilson's look like the new stick.

I also get a free fitting with the purchase so basically I'm paying $475 for brand new Wilson Fi5's with a custom fitting I don't think I can beat that deal.

Where are you getting those in Canada for such a great price? I'm in the Oakville area and only see them at golftown for $900 cdn.

Just wondering 'cause I think they are an awesome looking set as well

I have looked at these heads for a few months and have been wondering why they arnt hot and have a lot of buzzz. They are a great looking set. Real sharp design. Never hit them but great looking to say the least.

I think so too. I'd like to see a full blade set in the same design as the 8-pw. I think the problem comes from a few issues. 1- Wilson does not have big presence on the PGA Tour. I can only think of Padraig - and rumors of him switching are floating around; and 2 - Most golfer who hear "Wilson" think of fat shaft, Killer Whale driver, Fat Boy driver, Dominator driver, Fireball driver - basically recreational golf equipment you find at wal mart or Target. Many people forget Wilson was once the premier golf company.

Im getting them at DiMarco Golf in St. Catharines, they are their last set marked down from $799 to now $599. I am trading my X-14 Pro Series in to knock off $180 more.

I Play the Fi5 and they have a great soft feel and give great feedback. Not very forgiving but they set up nice with a thin topline and they have a small head to work the ball.
