Lynx Black Cat Irons (steel)

Summary:
I bought my perimeter reinforced cavity-back Black Cat irons new in 1995 and have never considered another set of anything else. In the decade-plus since, I have gone from playing multiple rounds of 18 per week to playing three or four times a year and now have resumed playing at least once per week. Simply put, I expect these clubs to outlive me. The clubs provide excellent feedback on both good and bad hits, and you feel the good hits through your entire body. I used to swing very hard, but my back can't take that any more. Even with the flared steel shafts, I can still hit high, soft-landing shots without hurting myself. These clubs are long, but don't generate as much spin as some others I've played.

Customer Service:
The Black Cats with steel shafts do not have the same problems with heads coming off as their graphite-shafted counterparts, so Ive never contacted Lynx or Golfsmith for service.

Summary:
Beautiful irons. Very small faces - slightly larger than the Tommy Armor 845 Silver Scotts. This makes them difficult to hit centered in the sweet spot. Even though there is a cavity, they play and feel like forged irons. These are really made for the stronger golfer with a moderate to high swing speed, who has a very consistant swing. These are great off non-rough.. hard to get in the air out of rough. They also give a low trajectory ball flight. they're just ok..

Customer Service:
lynx customer service is great.
