I'm 72 years young and after a 4 year layoff from golf due to some lingering physical problems, Im jumping back in. I'm looking for a set of irons that will give me back the distance I have lost because of my swing speed. Any recommendations, including going to Sr flex shafts vs R flex? Looking at Cobra and Wilson Staff

I’ll second the DS adapt max tons of forgiveness great distance excellent turf interaction
Aside from the brands mentioned, I would also look into the Tour Edge Hot Launch series.
The new Cobra King and King Max are pretty hot off the face. I saw a lot more distance with those than my regular irons
66 here and play Cleveland halos... Been playing 61 years and nothing has ever been more forgiving or easier to hit...reg steel for me...6-PW...
Welcome.back to the game!
@Coachtom - I have a DS-Adapt Max 6i head. If you join the Albatross Club it’s your if you send me an address. This way you could test the club and a SR shaft at pretty low risk, plus you get all the other benefits of being an AC Member.
