With Ddec's & GolferGal's coverage, I don't know why you would go anywhere else for information on these irons.

Really looking forward to putting these through their paces this weekend on the range.
I honestly wasn't impressed with the speedblades and am skeptical on the tech and theory that TM is going with over the last yr.

Wishing it was spring
I see these as a " tweener" iron. Just like the R11 irons were more game improvement-like than the TP CB, but more "players iron" looking than the Burner 2.0. The distance fell between the 2, as well as the looks. I see these in the same category. Bigger than the CB, but smaller than a SB, and distances somewhere in the middle. I know my r11 irons were my first irons I was ever fitted for (the first irons I ever bought that wasn't in a box set), which I bought only a few months in to starting to golf again after 20 years (and even 20 years ago, I only played maybe a dozen times). The R11 were not too much iron for me. I would say, at least try them. If I hadn't bought my SpeedBlades recently, these would be on my wish list

Looking forward to getting some swings in with these tomorrow. I imagine this thread will be littered with feedback this weekend.

Who wants 2 have some fun
I'll be real curious to hear your thoughts how these compare to the Apex irons.
I'm really envious of those who will get to see and hit these this weekend. I'm really anxious to get to do that soon.
Same here, need to hear what more people think.

I didn't get to hit these on the range today unfortunately. Heard a few good things from others tho

Hit them today. At address, they look very much like the Speedblades. I put the SB 6i side by side the sldr and they were very close.
Distance is about on par with them as well I thought. Wasn't super fond of the stock shaft but the wind was flaring up a lot on the range.
The only feedback I had that I didn't like at all was the finish. Chrome is pretty brutal in the sun. It's not a huge deal but at the right time of day, oof.

I'm not a chrome guy either. Flight too high for you in the stock setup?
A little surprised that they look more like the SpeedBlades rather than the CBs. I thought they were a little more compact.

I am glad i went with CB 5iron rather than waiting for these but i might still get one as a 4 iron

Little bit yeah. They were getting beat in the wind. Face feels good though
Top lines looked really really close. Not a bad thing but something I noticed
I always thought the two-tone top line of the SpeedBlades made it appear smaller than it was.
