There have been so many sexy cavity backs released recently. I'm curious who is playing what & how did you choose? I know that many have brand biases, but let's hear about side by side comparisons and data if you have it. Lastly let's see pictures of your cavities (clubs not dental)!

I'm play Titleist CB. Looks and feel are why I went that route. Played 765 earlier in the year and miura cb57.
 
I played the Z765 briefly early in the season and they were nice irons but not my favorites. The feel was good but the spin was pretty low. My Cobra Forged Tours were better performing for my game.

Out of those listed the Tour B and X Forged are most intriguing. I'll probably never get the chance to hit the Tour B which is a shame but I'm very interested in trying out the X Forged. It's the first Callaway iron in a long time that really has my interest.
 
I haven’t had a chance to hit my Bridgestone’s side by side with any of the ‘17 releases. I can’t imagine making a change anytime soon, but I do look forward to visiting a few demo days just for the sake of comparison. I really like the look of the minimalist offerings by Mizuno, Srixon, Titleist and Callaway’s new X-Forged. It’s nice that manufacturers are making classic looking clubs for us mortals who can’t play blades.

MP18's are possibly the most beautiful CBs I've seen in hand.

And based on your pic, I'm going that you're talking players CB's and not things like AP3's, CF16, etc.
 
Wilson Staff V6 are freaking perfect at address and make some of the competition look bloated.

For me they have an amazing combination of launch/spin which makes them remarkably playable.

It's incredible the amount of great looking and performing clubs there are in the market right now.
 
I have to say the X forged look a lot better in hand, just a very solid looking club, those Bridgestone X is so nice also.
 
Perfect

Very nice, those do look great at address! I like that they are a Midwest company & the V6's have received great reviews from every source that I've seen. If I were searching for a new set, these would definitely be towards the top of my testing list!
