Try Cobras, Titties, or possibly a Mizzy.

You realize that if you can hit a 1 iron, you can probably hit a blade, yes?

yes true, but a forged CB would still be straighter than a forged, no?

a cavity back design will be more forgiving than a blade - but I agree with Jeff - if you can hit a 1 iron, you can probably hit a blade

if you're looking for forgiveness - I think most would look towards hybrids in those lofts

good luck

Could you get a another 2-iron like the one you have and have it bent to 1-iron loft? Maybe re-shaft it, or add an extension? I know you would change the bounce angle, but how critical would that be in a 1-iron?

Yes there is actually. The Taylormade 300's were forged and cavity backs and did have a 1 iron available. Pm'd you.

Taylor Made 300 series 1-iron. I have one with a stiff 85g Penley Stealth shaft and the thing is sheer quality !

You might suprised to learm that a lot of your higher end clubs are produced in either China or Japan.

We have a salesman that comes through my work once a week or so, he is also a Callaway rep & told us their clubs are all made overseas. I believe him but who knows he could have been pulling our legs.
