2. Cleveland Mashie Irons Combo Set

The Cleveland Mashie Irons set is a "combo set" or "blended set": it includes both hybrids and irons. In this case, three hybrids and five irons make up the Mashie set. The set is a good one to take a look at for golfers seeking game-improvement clubs.

3. Cleveland CG16

Cleveland Golf touts its CG16 irons as "lighter and longer." They are definitely that - lighter in overall weight, and slightly longer in shaft length. But does that translate into being longer on the golf course? And how does that affect accuracy?

4. Nike VR Pro Cavity

The Nike VR Pro Cavity irons are aimed at "aspirational" golfers - mid- and mid-high handicappers - who hope to improve and in the meantime want to play irons that look more like players' clubs. The VR Pro Cavity irons make a handsome set and offering consistent distance and trajectory control.

5. Srixon Z-TX

The Srixon Z-TX irons are forged but with a semi-cavity and other features that still offer the golfer some forgiveness.

6. Cleveland CG7

"Sweet looks" are the first things that greet golfers with the Cleveland CG7 irons. Do they also play sweet? This article tells the story.

7. TaylorMade Tour Preferred

A thin topline and reduced offset are two of the giveaways that the TaylorMade Tour Preferred irons are aimed at better players. Our reviewer called these "the most handsome set of irons in a while from TaylorMade."
