Played these for 4 years , no plans to change irons, I'll play these forever
Nicely done guys! Thanks for the review!
Just compared these to the new Taylormade P7MC. You will be glad to note I can not justify Taylormade charging $1299 for those irons when these were as good in every category. I’ll be replacing my Titleist 695CB irons with the V6 Tours.
Great job Wilson making golf still amazingly fun and still affordable
Wilson is so underrated. They make some quality equipment.
Got to play pebble on my 60th b-day ! What an awesome experience. No score card, just played golf and took pics.🏌️ Beautiful ! Nice vid. Thanks guys.
I've seen these Irons recently and I plan to buy the V6 Irons ... they are stunning. Wilson Staff are a legendary Historic company with more Tour winners having used them than just about any other. Screw advertising ... those shouting the loudest aren't by virtue of that fact, the best.
Love my V6 💕
You guys are by far the best club reviewers on the web. I bought the Mizuno 919 Forged and have hit them for 4 months. I just could not hit a green to save my life. Bought these Wilson's used on ebay and love them. It is so much easier to be deadly accurate with the Wilson's. They are 2 degrees weaker loft so they dont go quite as far as the Mizunos but I find it has been worth it.
I do like how Wilson are focusing on the feedback of their customers a lot more nowadays, especially on social media as I feel it's making people more aware of how good Wilson are at making clubs again. Big fan of their products and excited to see what they bring out for next season.
Great video chaps 👍
Really good video guys. So nice to see Wilson Staff getting some love. I personally like seeing a golf club with the what I would call standard lofts. Clubs are so juiced up anymore. Well done!
As an older American golfer (67 years old), I grew up on Wilson Staff and Spalding trademark clubs. It is great to see that Wilson is still relevant today. Excellent review..might be a club I could consider, if there is some added distance per club - even with the weaker lofts...interesting!
I've had these FG Tour Irons for about a year over here in the UK, they are the most consistent clubs I've had. Great review and good to see you have Wilson in the mix, regards !!!!
You hit that club very well. One of the best sleeper clubs out there and a bargain second hand.
As a righty that plays lefty I'm in the process of stealing that swing..its terrific
That is a great looking iron. I am a fan of the "retro" lofts.... Same as my MP 32s.
Notch up one more v6. Did a fitting yesterday between 716ap2 , srixon 765 and these babies. Shoot out between ap2 in lz 6.0 & v6 in s300. No contest. Even the bad shots in v6 were straight with little loss in distance as you would expect. 2deg up cos I’m out to in but can bend them should the need arise. Great fitting experience, hour and twenty mins. Can’t wait to collect them. 11.0 to end the season and single beckons next year.
Hey guys , nice to see other brands worthy of showcasing . I play Fourteen brand TC 788 irons with Nippon shafts .
Give those a try you won’t regret .
Thanks for all you do !
I have the FG tour V4 irons and love them. I’ve tested and tried a lot of different irons this year looking for something new to put in my bag and always go back to my Wilson’s. Really glad you guys did this review to show people out here how good Wilson irons are!!
i have wanted a set of FG Tours ever since i switched from my TP MB Smokes. this appears to be exactly what i am looking for in an iron. also have loved the FG Tour balls and wouldnt mind trying the C300. thank you so much guys. absolutely what i have been needing to see out of reviews.
These are a little too tough to hit for me, but I just ordered the Wilson Staff C300 Forged. They are also fantastic to hit. I am converted to Wilson after hitting them for the first time. I guess with so many years of experience these guys know how to make golf clubs. I ordered their wedges too to complete the iron set. Arrive tomorrow - can't wait! Thumbs up Wilson.
Best looking irons out right now! That’s why they’re in the bag!
I tested these alongside the more fashionable brands, never thought I’d go Wilson, being a brand snob but after hitting every shot I kept mouthing WOW. I had to have them. They are pretty special clubs. Great looking, really forgiving and they feel so so good.
Another great video.. Almost bought Mizuno (MP18) again and than saw the reviews on RUclips about the V6 irons and decided to try them. Never thought of buying Wilson....my fault because they felt just as soft as Mizuno, true lofts , forgiving for a players iron, great numbers on trackman, good performance bringing a demo iron on course, great feedback, workable...bought them and saved a fair amount of money👍🏽🏌️😎
Great review nice to see the Wilson lineup in your videos. I would like to see Ian and Matt do the fsx skills challenge!! Keep up the great work
Best iron since my Hogan apex i bought these irons and they perform fantastically well they are terrific
I've gamed these irons for the last 2 years and loved every minute of it. Easily the best players irons on the market IMO. Amazing feel, fantastic launch for their size, and sneaky long despite the weak lofts.
Great video guys!
Got the F5 irons for peanuts here in the uk. 2 of my playing partners hit mine and got themselves a set the next day.
Lovely clubs
The V6 irons are amazing, love the more traditional lofts and the soft feel. Put them in my bag over the 716 ap2
Back in the day Wilson was The club of choice, so nice to see them getting some airtime again. After months of trying I still can't find anything that can beat my old Wilson Irons.
Although I'm disappointed that the shark infested Water hazards, Mine fields and Razor wire have disappeared from the backdrops, I have to admit that the Pebble Beach graphics look stunning! As soon as my doctors allow me to fly again, I've just got to come over to play the 7th.
Being Banned from doing just about everything that I LOVE is really tough, having a Heart Attack is a Bummer!!!!!!
Thank you so much for testing! I seriously think these irons are for me. I have been a searching far and wide for a more traditional forged iron with forgiveness, traditional lofts, high launch, and high spin. I play on greens that are unresponsive to spin and anything less than 6000 revs means your off the back.
I played Ben Hogans long time ago and I don't think they've changed that much since. However, forgiveness and distance is what I look for in my irons. Windy conditions in my local golf courses forced me to choose those strong lofted irons. Just trying to make my golf game more enjoyable !
Thanks for the video guys !
I've been playing the V4 for the last 2 seasons which was the precursor to the V6, and they're spot on for my game. Surprisingly, the higher lofts really don't impact my distances much at all. The one thing I do find is that the distance control is amazing with them. I've never been pin high on so many greens in my life. I'll either move to the V6's next year or see what if they have a next generation in the works and wait for that. DO NOT SLEEP ON WILSON IRONS!
Favourite testers on RUclips keep it up I like to know the details and you guys smash it
Gorgeous clubs. I know of at least a couple of other RUclipsrs that put these in the bag. Nice software upgrades. Keep it up lads 👍
I've been looking at the Wilson (c300 forged & V6 combo), Ben Hogan (PTx) and Mizuno (919 forged) irons to help my journey back in to golf after 12 years out. Off 6 now and working hard to get some sort of game back, this type of review really helps, thanks. Currently using Callaway Prototype blades and not finding it easy. Oh and the Cobra King Forged Tech Black irons (not 1 length)
...and I play the V6’s bye the way! Super nice. My first set of irons were Wilson Staff Tour Blades from the mid 80’s.
In my humble opinion, the FG Tour V6 irons are one of the best player's CBs ever made. Right up there with the Mizuno MP62. I have them in the bag right now and absolutely love them.
Hope you do the C300 forged irons for the mid handicapper and as Bill Daniel said try the Ben Hogan FW15s and PTx irons would be great. Cheers
Great review. I had already added the Wilson V6 to my list when I'm replace my AP2s next season.
Bob Kuralowicz it was between the AP2’s and the V6’s for me. The Wilson irons were noticeably softer and more consistent/forgiving, I think you’ll be blown away. I absolutely love them.
Loved that you reached out to other companies. Great job guys!
fitted reviews are amazing. thanks. really adds alot of value to youtube club review space.
Nice to see you experience the greatness of WS irons. They make the best player irons IMO. I think you'll be most surprised by the C300 driver, that thing is a low spin monster.It .kicked my Rogue SZ out of the bag
Wilson rep told me they bringing out the new v6 irons in next coming months, I play v6 and they are good irons
V6's in the bag last two seasons with KBS Tour shafts that were retro fitted by TXG (quality workmanship Mike!!)...nice not having a popular iron brand that performs every bit as good as the usual OEM offerings.
Have the F5s. Wilson irons rock
The V6's are a nice looking iron. Wilson irons definitely have a good wrap
Excellent review love the new software format...
One suggestion prefit Mat to the iron he's going to test so we can get a truer sense of what the irons are realy like....
Wilson staff Duo ball is very underrated as well.
I've hit them. A really nice, good feeling player's iron. If I wasn't such a Titleist fan boy, I'd consider putting them in my bag. I've always liked Wilson irons.
sjgraci do it mate 👍🏼 you wouldnt be ditching titleist, just get the vokey wedges to make up for having the v6’s 😉👍🏼
I love my Wilson staff fg5 driver and fairway woods, such a beautiful profile at address and feel off the face
Good review guys. Would be interesting to see a review of the C300 driver off the back of this.
Thank you for reviewing this product!
Congrats on getting to 20k guys. How about seeing if you can get hold of some Bridgestone irons. Played the J38's for a few years now and still love them.
Good idea
Thank you Gentlemen! There are great products available outside the big advertisers!
I use the Ben Hogan ft worth 15's , you guys should try them out. they are very nice to hit.
we have sent them an email to get some clubs in for testing
Test Hogans FT. Worth and PTX!!!
Very good video. I have really enjoyed this video and the VA Shafts review. Keep up the good work!
Hopefully Wilson will send over the winner of the Driver vs Driver 2 series. Preordered!
I have played the V4 then the V6, best irons out there for me.
Hi guys, I enjoy your reviews. What I am missing is the component brands that usually are related to clubfitters like Wishon, Maltby, Alphagolf and the like.
Nice video boys. Wilson irons have a place in my heart.
I would like to see you test the Wilson C300 forged and, if you can get your hands on one, the Hogan PTx and Edge irons. I think Hogan would send you demos.
Yup Hogan is sending us stuff soon
Great, thanks for replying!
@@clubchampionmedia
Superb guys!! Have been looking forward to your thoughts on the FG Tour V6.
Tried them out at a recent golf fair and they won hands down vs Apex, i210, AP2 and P750......... and at this price point it's simply a no brainer!!
And also Ian you are 100% correct about lie angles when testing a club ......... the Wilson club fitter switched me into a 2º upright head (my spec) and they felt even better....... a small detail but SO important.
PS Am wondering if they are going to launch a V7 soon, the current V6 is coming up to 2 years old, lanched in Nov 2016..........mmmmm
PS Would love to hear your thoughts on Bridgestone balls, recently tried out the RX model and was wowed by the performance and feel. Also after 2 rounds with the same ball, there wasn't a single scuff mark, and really bright shiny white, must be bullet proof.....
PPS What are your thoughts on one length irons??
Thanks guys, keep up the great work!! Looking forward to the next vids..
Would love to see some JDM irons in the mix. PRGR RS forged, Onoff forged, Epon, Muziik, etc... I know they are not so easy to get.
Upgraded to the V6s this season, went for 4-PW with X100 AMT shafts. Actually they are a couple of yards shorter than my old irons (X20 Tour) but way more predictable. My old irons could easy go an extra 20 yards on a pulled shot. My standard miss is a thin hit and for those shots the V6 is actually very forgiving and I'm not giving up many yards. The only thing I'm struggling abit with is the PW which is a bit chunky to my eye and I also have issues to flight it as desired. A bit tempted to try to find a FG 100 Tour pw to replace it with.
Got them at a very competitive price as well, a good 200-300$ cheaper than similar offerings from the major brands. The fitter was also kind enough to throw in 3 dozen FG Tour Balls so all in all I'm very happy with my V6's.
Would be interested to see the output of the Srixon driver when the strike points are similar to the Ping. Will Matt be able to dial-in the strike points if the swing weights were similar?
Guys, love that you are doing this. How about the Vice golf balls?
I game v6's. My buddies usually hit less club on any given shot but I still hit it closer.
Talking about products you never hear about: what about the Exotics CBX fairway wood. Gets great reviews and My Golf Spy rates it highly. Would love to see it!
Definitely on our list! We've got an email going out to Tour Edge tomorrow.
Great video, surprising results!!
Did you know that Wilson is subsidiary of Amer Sports from Finland. Like the look of those irons👍
Love the look when they came out. If only I could have demo them somewhere I would have bought them(I’m a lefty)
Love my Srixon’s tho!!!
Great video, seeing as Justin Rose is moving to Honma golf how about testing some of their better player irons
Good video, nice idea. There are other good clubs out there other than brand names. I know of a couple of utube pros that play Wilson v6.
I love your videos! I think you guys should to more fitting videos of mid-high handicappers
If you guys get a chance try the forte golf balls from an Australian company, they have a soft feel two piece a distance 3 piece a tour 3 piece a tour 4 piece and a pro tour 6 piece for higher swing speeds, I have tested some of these balls and so far they have impressed.
Always super helpful. QUESTION...if you had to pick between the two options, would you put the Wilson V6 or the Ben Hogan PTX Pro irons in your bag?
I'm really tempted with these irons. I currently play mp5 blades. But I like the slight toe help with the weighting in the longer irons....and to be a bit of an arse. I'm more comfortable with a right handed tester. Leftys just dont look right to me. lol sorry
These irons, wow, I'm seriously considering them
Good to see Wilson putting their equipment out there for review. V6 are lookers! Curious about your thoughts on new level irons, but know there’s a lot of equipment to review.
Keep up the great work
We actually have new level in the studio now, will likely be reviewing them in the near future
This doesn't relate to this vid but I watch a lot of comparison videos and its usually a 7 iron vs stronger lofts, maybe it takes a 6 or 5 to match up the lofts and then theres always the calculating of difference of shaft length at the end of video which throws off distance and height etc and always leaves me wondering, what if you just choked up on the longer shaft, maybe taped it off on grip to eliminate the length problem. Then everything should be equal right? Would that work? Is there a reason I never see it done that way?
Great job. Have you tried orka or muira products
Brilliant clubs, had mine for almost a year but they are stopping production. Interested to see what replaces, unless the c300 forged or blades is it..
I ordered some yesterday in Australia
Ok, ok...Pebble Beach?! NOW YOU'RE JUST PLAYING WITH OUR EMOTIONS!!!
Great job as always gentlemen! Could you please review the Honma TW 737vs? I really want to see what your take is on those. Thanks !
It’s sad these didn’t take to the market as well as they should’ve!
Are you going to review the new prototype blades from wilson as well?
Would love to see you actually make the adjustments to the club heads. Explain and show how a degree or two of adjustments can make a difference.
They have done this in some of their videos for loft. They either tweak it or pre-adjust to make two clubs the same loft. Here is a great video on Lie Angle ruclips.net/video/aiDR6hHVrHQ/видео.html
Hey guys. I'm debating getting these over my Mizuno mp59 ti irons. I hit my 8 iron 145 right now
How would you compare the v6 to the cb staff ??
I have both sets and can't choose between the two...
I've been waiting on this one.
Heads up they an awesome Golf ball too
Any chance of reviewing Wilson D7 forged. My golf spy's best players distance iron 2020
I wish we can see review/comparison for forged tech one length irons plus one length utility irons
On our to-do list
I really like the look of the Wilson V6. I've been playing the MP-54 (I'm a lefty) and want a bit more distance out of my irons and I'm worried that the traditional lofts are going to hurt more than improve. I don't hit as long as the person hitting in the video so it concerns me. Anyone know how the spin would effect the club if strengthen the lofts, or even weaken the lofts to fit the yardages I'm looking for?
would you consider testing Maltby golf clubs? The new TS1 and 2 irons look amazing.
Yup we would consider it
Been waiting on this one.
Would like to see how their quality control is in terms of total weight and sing weight within the set.
Was fitted for wilson irons over 20 years ago. Couldn't hit them at all. Took them to a different facility. Swing weights were all over the place. He took them apart. Head weights did not follow any sort of normal progression.
Have been playing golf for 48 years. Was a wilson fan before that fiasco. Haven't touched a Wilson club other than my putter since.
Hello. Have you any experience with Wilson C300 Forged irons from your experience, fitting and customer feedback?
Srixon soft-feel golf ball, if you get a chance.
Thanks for that!
Would've loved to see Ian do the lie adjustment.
Benny Frank the 3rd we did the adjustment to the 5iron in the latter part of the video.
I know, I was talking about the actual bending and measuring in the lie&loft machine. I think it's cool :-)
Wilson is under rated! It's a shame they're bigger overseas, than in the USA.
How about a review of golfworks Maltby TE forged irons. They are affordable but very nice, no offset, tiny topline, and lots of forgiveness...with some fst shafts, they can be had for under $300. Nobody reviews them! Thanks
do a review on the Wilson staff FG tour 100 anniversary irons they are the best
Rick shields had them, and they're regular bare bones blades. Seen one seen em all. No?
