I sat thinking about the 7i thread and how misleading advertising is. People are duped into buy the newest irons because the are "longer". I use quotations, because "longer" simply means an increase the distance gap between each club, ultimately making you less accurate. Maybe "longer" is the right word -- longer from the pin.
So here is the question: If you're shopping for a brand new set of irons and money is not an issue, what are you looking for?
For me:
1) Forgiveness -- because I simply don't play enough anymore. I want more distance on mis-hits and less unintentional hooking/drawing.
2) Trajectory -- a lot of newer sets promote high ball flight, which causes a balloon for me, I probably won't like that set.
3) Appearance -- need to be attractive at set up because I can't stand staring at shovels.
