Japanese Vega Blades

[tncup]

who is the expert on these? need some good info other than they look great.

Vega's are a great iron, they had the best feel of any iron I have ever hit with excellent quality. I would be still playing with them, but they have a lot of offset for a blade at least the T50 mb's did not sure about the other model. If you can get past or like the offset you would be hard pressed to find a better iron, just pure feeing.

thanks for the reply, are they compact blades? long heel to toe? sharp leading edges? wide sole/thin sole?

A picture would be nice!

don't have one, the one I saw showed only the backs, hence the questions.

[siagolf]

are you referring to the RAF CM's or the T.50 MB's? i have a set of the Gauge Design GA-M1 Tours which are the same head (forged in Kyoei by VEGA) as the RAF CM's with a Gauge Design-specific grind. thin topline and relatively thin sole i would say. i can take pictures of my GA-M1's and send them to you to give you an idea -- just PM me your email address.

If you want pictures of the irons look at my WITB.

That is one of my favorite sites! I can't think of any other site that showcases so many beautiful clubs...

I can only speak of the T.50MB's. Beautiful set of irons. Easy to hit. Not a really compact head, it is about the same length as the Miura blades. The topline is a little thick but its something I learned to deal with. As mentioned above, there is a slight progression in the offset of the irons. The specs can be found on the VEGA website. I tried the Miura, Scatch, and VEGA and the VEGAs felt the best to me. For pictures, you can check out my [url="http://picasaweb.google.com/asianone974/WITBJanuary2009#"]WITB[/url] (link provided in my signature line). I like them so much, I'm about to order the limited raw T.50MB heads.

Another website for guys in the U.S. is - vegagolfusa.com - it's a little different from the U.K. website. These are basically what's available here and you can see if there are any dealers nearby you for some demo's. As many of you have said already these are great clubs, really hard to match the feel of these clubs. They are available through dealers only and tough to beat when properly fit, which is the only thing a vega dealer will do to buy these. I have a few different models, CM blade satin, T.50 cb/mb combo, and 501i, also have 02 & 03 black wedges.
