All Titlest woods going on three season, brand new vokey wedges and scotty cameron laguna putter....

My son-in-law is still playing some DCI Black irons he's had for about 10 years. When he hit my AP2 irons a couple days ago, he started getting interested in some new irons. He's playing in a tournament today, probably for the last time with the old DCI's. Last night he asked me if after dinner tonight, I would go shopping with him. 

3 years.  Before that, 4 years.

I've been using blades for about a year and a half now, and I plan on using them until they cannot be used anymore

I got fitted for new irons in July and was recomended either Mizuno MP 62 or Titleist AP2 with KBS xtra stiff steel shaft. I went for the AP2's and couldn't be happier. I had Callaway x20s for the last 2 years but I have improved quite a bit since then and was hitting the ball far too high.

The most important thing when buying any club is to get fitted. I went to Foregolf in Ireland (I live there) who were voted world clubmakers of the year for 2010. It was the best money I ever spent in respect of golf.  My advice, get fitted.

I don't have a clue. Maybe 5-7 years. They are the closest thing to my old '80 something and '91 Tour Model muscle backs which I'm trying to source again

I was playing a set for roughly 11 years before I decided to get another set of clubs for myself.  Granted I bought a older model of club and not the newest model out there, but I hit them better than anything else.

After 10 years of DCI 981 Irons I am finally upgrading to the AP2 irons. I am looking forward to the new technology and the forged feel.

I normally play with a set of irons for about 5 years and play around 100 rounds per year.  This spring I picked up a set of the AP1 710 irons.  Great set and I plan on using them for many years. 

still playing 735 CM's will probably be picking up a set of AP2's toward the end of the year, trying to find a decent set of pre-owned for around half the price.

Decided early this year to switch from my 5 year old Cleveland CG4 game improvement irons to a set of AP2s. However, in an attempt to make the transition easier, I picked up a 3-year old set of Titleist 755 Forged to play in between. Now I love the 755s and decided to wait a bit longer to spend the money on the AP2s. I like a thin topline and these old 755s, which have an even thinner topline than the AP2s. When I do eventually switch over to the AP2s I will likely only buy the 5-PW which should keep the cost down. I play a 3 & 4 hybrid and 3 different Vokey wedges so there's no need to buy the 3 and 4 iron or the GW. That saves a few hundred bucks.

Been playing the 690 mb's for 8 years now and they have been great.  Never thought i would find a better set until now. I have been inpatiently waiting for 2.5 weeks for my new 710 mb's to arrive.  +.5in dg tour issue x-100 1 deg. up.  Now if they only made a 2 iron for the mb's.......

I just hit a used set of MB's at a local golf shop and I have to say that I love them!  They were 5-p and the ball seriously felt like nothing when I made a true strike.  Like a hot knife cutting through butter, it was just awesome!

Unfortunately I was hitting off a mat and into a big net so I couldn't tell how they were actually flying.  All I know is that they felt great, I need to get fitted, and I would love to play a set of blades (at least 7-W)

I am still playing DCI 981 Irons.  I have not been playing on a regular basis in the last 5 years.  I started playing frequently again about 2 months ago.  I purchased a set of X-20 Irons with uniflex shafts.  After spraying the ball all over the course, I went back last week and started playing with my 10 yr old set of 981's.  They are the straightest clubs I have hit.  I forgot how good they were.  They have the s300 dynagold shaft and I love this set.  Just wasted money on the new x-20's.

Still have my DCI 762. Love them but I think its time to let them go. AP2's or the CB' s not sure yet. But what ever I get Im sure i will keep that set for another 8-9 years...

you'll have to pry them from my cold dead hands.

Titleist 681 2 - 9 iron, S400. Been playing them for 2 years.

My irons came out in 2001. This is the second set of 681's I have played. I wore out the first and tried to upgrade to the 680's but it just wasn't the same. This is hands down the best iron Titleist has ever made. No offset through the whole set and it was the last set to be Hoffman forged in the USA. I will only ever play 681's for the rest of my life. 

list of set's I've played:

1.Titleist DCI black (2 years)

2.Titleist DCI 962 (1 year)

3.Hogan Apex 73's (2 years)

4.Hogan Apex 99's (2 years)

5.Titleist 962B's (2 months)

6. Macgregor v-foil MB's (2 years)

7.Titleist 681 (2 years)

8.Titleist 680 (4 months)

9.Cobra Pro MB (2 years)

10.Titleist 681 (2 years) *i will never betray you again...

I have been playing Miz MX-25 for two years now.  On the verge of switching over to 710CB.  Only hesitating over rumours about 710CB being released in a brushed chrome or black nickel finish as I would like that heaps more than the shiny chrome.

Fantastic, I didn't know that 710CB are also coming out in black nickel - that would be very interesting indeed.   I currently using 660 in satin look or brushed chrome and they are nice.  I prefer that over shiny chrome.  I am not looking to change now, but black nickel version could change my mind.

I was custom fitted back in the 90's when playing for High School then College, for my DCI 962's. I am NOT embarrased to say that I have played them and loved them up until 2 months ago. I pulled the trigger on a custom order set of AP2's.  +1/2" and 2 degrees up right, X100.  The AP2's are a amazing club. I truly cannot say enough about them.  So glad I made the change. 

I am now awating the 910 so I can sell my other driver. :)

You may have tried all the others that Titleist made, but I note that you have never tried the AP2 or AP1 s. Don't miss out on giving those a try. You just might get a real surprise.

i have the very first set of ap1's and im always fantasizing about getting new irons even though i dont need them. i dont think there is any specific time to switch irons unless the irons you have now are not treating you well golf-game wise.

I just received a new set today. I have never owned titleist irons yet but I would like to have a set of ap2 714s. They look really nice and the reviews are good. After this set wears out or I just get tired of them maybe I will be able to get my first set of titleist.  But to answer the question I change clubs regularly for the fun of it. I sell the ones I have then use that money to buy new ones. But the set I have now I plan on keeping for a while. 

every two years for me.

gotta have 'em!

good luck!

Ive got a set of GT tight lies blades that are probably around 6-7 years old, I too work with a limited club budget, and spend my money playing golf, and not on clubs.  I have another expensive hobby, and I usually have to choose between them.  So for now, I will keep playing with the tight lies, re-groove them this winter and then hit it again next spring. 

Do not change irons that often.......started playing golf in 1984 and bought a set of Wlson Staff, upgraded to png Eye Two, then Titleist, then cally, back to Wlson Staff and back to Titleist in May 2014 and upgraded to the new AP2S in Nov 2014......the Pings and first set of Titleist I had for a good many years........if I play well with the clubs and they are still in good shape I normally don't trade a lot.....I bought the new Titleist in 2014 because I liked the feel of the forged club........
