Just bought a set here. Thanks for your feedback and information.I would save my money and get the J38 dpc if you could find a set in good condition.
Friend I play with is a 15 handicap and plays the J38 DPC no worries. Blade length is fairly long on DPC so very forgiving.
I recently re-gripped the irons and added three wraps to get them to fit me properly according to Lampkin. My first range session with them was tonight and it went really well. Simply stated, the feel and trajectory of these irons continues to impress.
pWell my box of gloves wasn't the only Bridgestone package that arrived today. I also received my weapons of grass destruction, my beautiful J40 Dual Pocket Cavity irons. I ordered my irons with KBS Tour Shafts and lamkin crossline grips. I have to say, even though I have seen theses irons in person on multiple occasions, they still take my breath away with how stunning they are. Knowing that I was meeting my father in 20 minutes for a round of golf I quickly snapped some pictures so that I could get them out on the course. Once again a HUGE thanks to THP and Bridgestone golf for making Morgan Cup 2.0 an experience I will never forget.

I think the reference to combo sets was that Bridgestone is now offering J40 DPC / Cavity Back combo sets. I think Shane was saying there's no reason to play the CBs because the DPCs are easier to hit, etc.
I can't speak to J38s vs J40s other than I think I remember somehow characterizing the 40s as being the culmination of everything Bridgestone learned about irons up through the 38s.
I play to a 16+ and was worried if the DPCs would be too much club (the longer irons are harder for me but 7i through the wedges are not a problem). You play to a 14. You will be more than fine. These are sweet clubs, I think you will like them.
so, I'm not afraid of the dreaded 5i anymore.. but there is that dang 4i...
was only able to get 2 or 3 rounds in before I broke my thumb, but if I recall correctly, the 2nd round I played with them, I hit something like 11 greens, and sat/sun when I hit the range a few times, I was piping em dead straight for the most part, and at my usual distances! can't wait for better weather..
I've only hit it once but I love the j40 4i....never hit one so easily and smooth in my life...ever
The 4 iron was my favorite club in the whole set
where do these fall under in the scale of game improving-ness (SGI, GI, players).?
Imo I'd say half way between gi and players. ..maybe closer to gi
that's what I was thinking.. it's kind of confusing because the profile is like a players club, but they're so forgiving..
I've thought of them as a very forgiving players iron (I was reflecting on my last range session earlier today and how easy it was to hit draws and fades on demand; I starting thinking maybe I should give up on trying to hit it straight and just shape a shot every time instead).where do these fall under in the scale of game improving-ness (SGI, GI, players).?

Oh yes, they are here! Such a fantastic set of irons....that I'm oh so tempted to put into play this weekend.
These look yummy. Are those shafts R flex by chance?
They are R's in them. The Steelfibers also play about a flex stiffer than stated fwiw.
So much good information in here. I simply love my KBS Tour 90's but am eyeing the PX 5.5 steel or dare I say graphite? Love the graphite in my driver. If the steel fibers play stiffer than normal, then they are not for me. After the holidays, I am reaching out to Bridgestone for a quality Bridgestone fitter so that I can get some actual numbers and use the information to its fullest.
Already had a couple of good email exchanges with guys who were staffers and have first hand experience with these baby's. DPC me thinks for me.

The Steelfibers are stiffer than stated flex and low launchers, def not a shaft for everyone
