I typically don't leave reviews, so if I'm doing this then it must be for something special. I'm a senior, 63 yo with a pretty good game still - 7-iron is about 145-150 and driver is around 225. I've had a hard time finding clubs that fit me - either the regular flex is a tad to heavy, or the senior flex is just not right due to either the flex or weight, and sometime I feel the larger heads don't suit my game, but on the other hand I want all the help and forgiveness I can get. I want my irons to go far, travel straight, be lightweight, comfortable and easy to swing, and I want them to be consistent. Good looking is nice, but performance is the most important thing to me, I'll sacrifice pretty much anything as long as the clubs do what I want them to. Not to imply these are not good looking - I think they look great, but better yet the performance is off the charts for me. I have the 55g Denali 5.0 light flex shafts and they're absolutely perfect for me. I can really swing these pretty hard and go after the ball with no worries, but they don't feel too stiff either (unlike the Aldila Ascent 50g senior flex shafts which are like boards!) When you make pure contact there's like a "crunch" and then you feel the ball compress and look up in admiration and wonder "did I just hit that?" These things go really high, and really far. I've had turf interaction trouble in the past with larger oversized heads on SGI irons, but not so with the Elyte X irons - in fact for the first time ever I feel I can really hit down on the ball without fear of digging or hitting it fat, the ball just gets up. I'm usually a picker of the ball, but not so with these - hit down and it will go up! I'm loving these clubs a lot - most actual game improving set I've ever bought - they are really making a significant difference in my game and it's a lot more fun!
