thanks Colt. I have only swung the C-Tapers in these irons and that was at the outing. I liked what I saw, but I have no clue how they would hold up over time for my game.

Jman - as someone who has played DG300 in more than few sets of irons, do you think the C-Taper is all that much of a different beast?
Haha! I was thinking something else. :bulgy-eyes:
I think I told you something along the lines of that in Orlando. Knew you would like 'em.
Colt; you were pondering these vs the 588s yesterday, did you end up OEMing the CMBs? Or have them to Demo?I've played S300 plenty as well. For me at least the C-Taper launches like a hard stepped s-300, maybe an X100 but spins less. Close to PX in spin #'s. Maybe a little lower.
So for me, simply C-Taper S launches= S300 hard stepped and spins similarly to PX 6.0.
Tapping and crashing with the new updated/downgraded Tapatalk.
Guys lets make sure we keep these to the irons.
Honestly, I do dd. The DG's may be there with weight but they always have and still do spin a pretty significant amount more for me that the CT's do. I don't throw in the flight comparison because its different for everyone, I hit my CT's lower than I did my S300's but stiffness has a factor there too. The spin decrease with the CT's is what makes it such a different beast IMO though. I can still hold a green with hop and stop in a low iron with them but alot of guys I've let use them in no way shape or form can. Lower spin is great, but lowering it too much can do alot more harm than good for some and I think alot of golfers don't realize that enough.
Also, I think the S300's are easier to load and unload, but they do feel like absolute rubbish to me. BUT, we all know feel is in the eye of the beholder.
LOL I thought of what a certain person could think of ATM being aftewards (see my edit) and if that is ddec's thing more power to him haha
4-PW???

Anyone have any THP authentic vid on these? I am so looking at these. There is a backorder in America junior for these as informed from Golftown. I wonder how they compare to the R11's. Perhaps Tadashi can respond to this? I have been in epic ponder mode with these as you get a lot for the package price. I am surprised this has not been updated lately, its not winter so people are spending money on the links... More feedback please. I have a short window to trade my other order here and these interest the heck outta me.

Nope. They won't. I've been reading a lot about these in a lot of other places. I'll still stick by my guns and say that the stock C-Tapers are ill fitted for a vast majority of golfer. I'm sure some saw some success with some scoring irons on a par 3 hole at Grand Cypress, but that's not the same as having them in your bag for 18 holes and having to hit the long/mid irons. Like I said, I had C-Tapers, I know what they are all about. And you better be on your swing to be able to utilize those suckers.
I can guarantee these will be in the used rack at goldsmith with a month. That ctaper is going to haunt people.
it is interesting that these will probably be able to be had for half price by next season. There are so many other great irons in this category. I believe that it will come down to ball flight. From what I have read, the flight is highish (perhaps someone can comment vs. r11) but with little spin. I would love a side by side of the 588, ap2, and CMB. The other irons (correct if wrong) have less offset but I would imagine it is not that noticable.
