UPDATE
THP Review is up on the home page now. Get all of the information on this set here.
http://www.thehackersparadise.com/wilson-staff-fg-tour-f5-irons/
In for review to THP are the new Wilson-Staff FG Tour F5 irons, these irons walk a rather unique classification area under Wilson's F/C/D categories as they really are a bit of a blend in the Feel and Control categories.
In all though, they are aesthetically pretty dang good looking in hand as the satin finish is stellar and held up well this weekend to a LOT of fold and bouncing around in the bag. Compared to the M3's there really seems to be a similar profile but with less offset, its a look at address that blends player with GI quite well as the topline is fairly small and though longer heel to toe than a lot of players irons, its nothing cumbersome at all though. Its said a lot but literally 10 other THP'ers said the exact same thing about these in hand compared to early images we saw, even some who were underwhelmed in the preview thread came away impressed with the looks here after holding them.
THP was sent the FG Tour F5's in 4-GW paired with stiff flex TT DG XP S300's, I'll have more finite specs for everyone when THP gets them in the coming days. We also have some pretty cool stuff working for this one review wise which should be fun for people to read when it all gets done after data collection.
Information from Wilson-Staff on the FG Tour F5 Irons:
The newest forged offering from Wilson Staff achieves crossover status by combining a players compact head shape with Speed Sole distance technology in the longs irons. Now the F5 irons not only look and feel great, but provide even greater performance where it’s needed most.
Specifications:
Shafts: True Temper DG XP (Steel)/Mitsubishi Rayon Kuro Kage LBP85

- Speed Sole Technology - Creates a thin face-to-sole transition that expands the sweet spot lower in the face for faster ball speeds in the long and mid irons.
- Stabilizing Bar - Provides support behind a thin, responsive face to allow for greater forgiveness while still maintaining shot workability.
- Forged Feel - 8620 carbon steel is forged for the ultimate in feel, feedback and response.
