I impressed that these irons are still getting attention a year later. They look fantastic and perform. Interesting comparison to the M3.
It's a set that can grow with your game even if somehow a player can get into a single digit handicap.
I need to go swing these. My wallet says no, but the things I've been hearing tempt me deeply.
If you go swing them... we will be looking forward to your post in the "What golf stuff did you buy today" thread.
After seeing the XTD Forged Irons and hitting them last week, I am still extremely impressed with the CB3. It's such a solid club for sure. I agree with the growing with your game comment too.

Johnny - I'd appreciate your thoughts on this comparison. If I were to change my CB3s at any stage, the XTD Forged are top of my list to try...
So I took a few swings with these the other day with the stock stiff KBS Tour 90's, and HOLY CRAP was I hitting them high. Very forgiving, nice feeling clubhead, but there is no way I could game this shaft in them, at least not the way I swing at the moment - with 120g shafts in my irons right now, this would be a huge adjustment. I lost 5 yards or so, stronger lofts notwithstanding.
However, with that kind of forgiveness and feel and a heavier shaft (KBS Tour, Tour-V)? Oh man, I salivate to think of the possibilities.
If you can find them with a Tour 90 x-flex shaft, Conrad confirmed in the KBS thread that this is actually a standard KBS Tour shaft... not a Tour 90. Maybe worth keeping an eye out.
Thought I'd chime in having read the recent updates.
I've been gaming my CB3s for around 18 months and still think they are great. They feel a wonderful combination of smooth and solid, which I have no doubt is down to both the head and the excellently paired KBS shaft.
I don't work the ball left and right a great deal, but I do frequently flight the ball high and low depending on conditions and the CB3s are incredibly competent in that regard. The forgiveness offered by the CB3s belies the compact head shape as well; granted this is not a blade / muscleback, but it's a visually pleasing package and in no way screams SGI.
Overall, I believe the CB3s are great clubs which is why they are still in the bag. Never say never, but the current plan is certainly to game these for the 2014 season and beyond.

I dislike everyone who has posted in here recently.
I wasn't even looking for irons but I got interested after reading everything here.
Just bought a set on a whim. My wallet dislikes this thread.
