Comments about Hireko XI32702B:Power Play System Q Low Profile Iron:
couldn't hit my long irons (ping) tried system Q and "voila!" long accurate shots. I love the 3 and 4 irons accuracy, length and ease of hitting the sweet spot.

Comments about Hireko XI32702B:Power Play System Q Low Profile Iron:
The low profile club head design was and still is the ultimate club head design for mid to high handicappers. Low profile irons enjoyed a strong 6 -7 years of popularity in the late 1970s - mid 1980s, beginning with the introduction of the original Lynx Predators in 1977. The low profile concentrates the weight of the club head in the sole, making it much easier to launch shots. -- The 3 iron in this set is at least as easy to launch as a 6 iron in a standard set, and the upper portion of the club face on a standard iron is useless anyway, because the ground won't let you hit the ball off the upper portion of the club face. -- Moving weight away from the club face to the perimeter of the club head expands the "sweet spot" of these irons and gives them a very solid feel upon impact with the ball. Finally, the very wide sole of these club heads greatly helps to prevent, or lessen the adverse effects of, digging (or "fat" shots) when the leading edge of the sole occasionally strikes the ground before the club face strikes the ball. -- Low profile irons didn't begin to disappear from the market after 1983 or 1984 because the design wasn't a good one. They began to disappear for purely economic reasons. By 1983 or 1984, almost everyone who was going to purchase a set of low profile irons had done so, and if Lynx and other manufacturers were going to continue to sell irons, they had to sell the consumer on something else. If you are a beginner or a mid to high handicapper, you cannot find a better set of irons than these on the market today, and that includes anything and everything the pro line manufacturers are putting out.
