Summary: Bought these irons 3-PW, 5.5 rifle shafts 9 months ago second hand for 100 euro, yes 100 euro. Replaced long serving copper zings.
In the past 9 months i have brought my handicap down from 20 to 14.4, won two medals at the club, a number of singles and team events.
These clubs are the easiest, straightest and most forgiving club i have ever hit. Best bang for your buck clubs on the market.
Just shows that the big name clubs are no better than these puppies. Considering buying another set and putting them away till they are needed.
Well done macgregor.

Model Reviewed: MacGregor M565
Summary: Another year gone by and the M565s are still in the bag. I sell golf clubs and these are the irons that are in my bag. A durable, forged clubs that hits straight, long and lets you work the ball.
The steel Rifle shafts are also about the best I have played. I honestly don't see any club replacing these. I have several sets, but doubt MacGregor or anyone else can do much better - legally

Summary: Excellent irons. Very forgiving. Great height to all shots.
If you want forged irons that are forgiving these might be what you are looking for...the regular steel shafts are the best I have ever used in 40+ years of golfing.

Model Reviewed: MacGregor M565 V-Foil Iron Set with Stiff Graphite Shaft
Summary: I got a set of MacGregor M565 Iron Set (3 - 9, P, G, and S) with stiff graphite shaft about 4 months ago and played with it about 10 rounds. Previously I played with a Nike Sling Shot iron set (it is nice too). By comparison this M565 iron set is much better in feel and distance. Forgiveness is about the same. Long irons are easy to play and pretty consistant. Miss hits of mid or long irons do not lose much distance and still stick to the direction I swing toward. Gap wedge and sand wedge are good from fairway but may lack some touch from rough, or this may be my own fault. Quality and durability wise this set is excellent. If you are in stage of improving your game I highly recommend this set of irons.
Summary: I have been playing with these set for about a year now and just getting the hang of it, I have just been into golf for about a year and all I can say is this irons tend to grow with you, I am currently using a graphite shaft with R flex.Buy these set of clubs and you will not be dissapointed.
