I own 3 sets of vintage nicklaus signature irons I find they feel as good as the newest styles.They are blade style heads (which is what I learned with)but with a little different back weight distribution. They are solid well built clubs with true temper shafts. As much as club technology has changed I still believe the vintage Irons from the 70's are an affordable yet effective choice for any skill level without breaking the bank.Thus leaving you more money for the much improved Drivers and Hybrid woods.Do you have any favorite vintage irons/clubs that you enjoy playing?:comp:
