I bought the cleveland zipcores xl... Love it. 49 years old,fairly fit and a good swing speed... Went from average 92 down to average 88 after 4 rounds and that with only playing twice a month with zero practice. Love them ❤
Great review. I'm having a fit for these irons on March 15th with the Cleveland Tour bus that is doing Fitting days around the UK. Hope they are suitable, as your review has really given a positive nod towards them. Running them against the Ping 430's and Paradym
I have the old and the shaft is counter balanced. This be the reason for the extra length. Really enjoy the irons. Great review. How do they compare to last year's. Thanks
Hey Jim, I was wondering when Cleveland would be coming out with some new stuff. These XLs seem to be a decent successor to the Launcher XLs. Maybe will get to see you at the PGA show if you are going.
Hi Jim, thanks for the great videos and sharing of skill and info. Question for you…how would you compare these Cleveland irons to the Maltby TS1 IM forged irons and the Takamo 101 irons? Both seem very similar in hollow body concept and game improvement capabilities.
With wedges I had Callaway, Ping and Cobra…..50/54/56/60/ name it …..Bought zipcore face2 CBX last summer …..along with my Ping G425 irons in the bag looks pretty weird but I don’t really care with my 17 handicap . Now I can get the ball rolling with my 50 or shoot low or high with my 56 or 60 without risks of an heart attack. Sand has never been a problem by the way. Happy like a pig rolling in the muds…😊
The halos real value is they "plow" through the turf on a less than perfect shot. I've gamed them and had a lot of good results, but I've moved onto the zip core. One of the really nice thing about the zip cores is how soft the feel is when you hit. It is a slightly more buttery feel... no rattle when you hit.
Can I ask with wide sole irons that have the v sole, would you say it gives the impression of a thinner sole of normal irons as the front part of the v sole is the only part that hits the ground. So you get a better player iron with more forgiveness Interested in your opinion

Srixon Cleveland is still the most underrated golf equipment brand on the market today.
By far, the best bang for your golfing buck, hands-down.

Does the tour bus have a list of dates and locations?
Hello Daren, did you get the Cleveland irons. If so how do you like/ not like about them. Regards Mel
Nice review been looking to getting these I avg about a 95-100 now been improving looking for more forgiving irons

Great video❤
Great review. Very detailed 👍
Are these better than last year's Cleveland XL?
Im wondering the same thing

It is impressive I must say and we are still considering a one day trip

@mcgolf - Cleveland lists the Tour Lite as 110g but KBS shows it 95g. Can you confirm which is the right weight of this shaft (R flex )?
Would these clubs compare to the Wilson Dyna Powers thank you
Great explanation thank you
Glad you liked it
great video

So are you using all cbx wedges now? How does that look weird? Most people have different brands In the bag
What would you recommend for a very new golfer, the Halo XLs or the Zipcore XL? Thank you, great video

Curious how these would compare to the srixon zx4 mk2
Or Ping g730

Interested in your opinion
Would like to see ball flight with a lower swing speed to see where transition to hybrids is warranted.
Do you have a review on ping g430 irons
I dont, PING does nt come through here
Would love a ping 430 iron vs these
Exactly what I was thinking. They’re the same price at my local golf shop in Louisiana.
I love my Zipcore wedges and will not switch.
These are irons
same bud…best wedges in the game
They resemble Srixon X4 MK11
That is what they said the Halo
You hit it out toward the toe so you don’t hit a hosel fade. 😅
It’s almost in the specs😂
