Titleist 680 Irons

HappyGas · March 8, 2011

...anyone else addicted to the club ??

I've been playing the Titleist 680 since 2003.

I've been trying to find a set to replace the muscle backs because my rounds have gone down over the years and I'm just not as sharp off of the tight playing surfaces at my course.

These are the best feeling clubs I've ever put my hands on. Anyone else share this.

Or have you found a set that compares to the turf interaction the 680 gives ??

I've bounced around a bit, but they still have that allure. I have a brand new set, 2-PW sitting in a box in the basement...waiting...

Loved the turf interaction on these as well. Call the guys at scratch and demo a d/s grind in either the ar-1 or the ez-1. Iirc, the grind is very similar. Or, just go try a set of s56s, which I have found to be a nearly perfect iron. Only thing that has cured me of my blade lust.

+1 on AR-1s. I had a combo set of those and they were the best feeling irons ever. Very solid performer as well. I kind of regret selling them, lol.

You might want to put eyes on some MP-33's or MP-68's. They are the same but different from the 680's.

680's are great! Just had mine refinished. They should be back any day now.

I just can't find anything to replace mine. They are starting to wear, and I really need to figure something out.

I bought a set of Miura Tournament Blades this spring. I had KBS installed and didn't like them. AT ALL !! Now my Miura's are getting S300's put in & my hope is I will like the Miura's as much as the 680's.

As I type, I'm playing Hickory Clubs so I have some time to figure this thing out. BTW....Hickory Golf is fantastic. For a BLADE LOVER, you will surprise yourself. You can control the pants off the golf ball.

Challenge is finding a good set of Hickory's.
