I wish Hireko and Dynacraft would accomodate this as does Golfworks so that one can use Stan Utley's wedge scheme of 48, 53, 58 which covers all one needs with one less club. The 5-9 irons are easy to find ranging from 44/45 deg. in 3/4 deg increments. Your SP-6 20 deg and 23 deg hybrid 3 and 4 irons are perfect with TT DG lite steel shafts at 2 and 3 iron length and trim. Now you can put that (3 and) 5 wood back in the bag! BTW, the HP 425 putter is a n MOI machine with a 112 gram fluted shaft. Question: Are they really making 431 double-heat-treated steel to bend easier and have better feel or is it only marketing?

So it is impossible to tell without looking at the head if it was a model we made or not. Our most popular model had the following lofts which were fairly indicative of those in the 80's and early 90's. 1-iron 16 2-iron 18 3-iron 21 4-iron 24 5-iron 28 6-iron 32 7-iron 36 8-iron 40 9-iron 45 PW 49 SW 55 Bill:
