    I have tried them, and found them very forgiving, especially when the swing has gotten too hard & fast. Took me a while to learn how to get a high flight with them, though, but it can be done(esp. if you are a fader).

    In the end, the only reason I didn't buy them is that I have fairly small hands, and my left hand grip ended up being weakened(right handed golfer).

    I use them - were recommended by the pro i took lessons from. Got a full set of Di9's . They are easy hit alright with a miss-hit not being punished as much as my previous irons.
    You are more than welcome to try them for a round if you want.

    I had a set of them when they first came out. If you're looking for distance, these things go fcuking miles. Atleast one club stronger than the clubs I use now.
    Had to get rid of them in the end.

    Thanks for the replys lads . I have the G10s at the minute
    but I'm very hit and miss with them , now don't get me wrong I'm not blaming the clubs it's just lack of ability at the moment . A Gentleman I was playing with last week suggested the Wilson clubs so I'd taught I'd get some feedback here .

    @ Charlie thanks for the offer it was a really nice gesture , but a friends brother said I could takes his to the range midweek

    I have one of the first ever fat shafts, the deep reds! I have had them for about 11 years and I think they are brilliant!! Very forgiving, lovely feel aswell!! Great iron!

    If u have G10s then the Wilsons will not be any better, if you were coming from an old set then yes the Di9 etc would be a good fit but the G10s are a serious set of forgiving irons, if you are very hit and miss the problem lies elsewhere
