Realise this is an old post about what is now an old, seemingly outdated piece of technology, but as I am just changing my irons now (2016) after using the N1's since I bought them as a high school kid in 1993, I felt that I couldn't let them go
without proffering forth a few words. I love these irons. Same grips, same shafts as what I bought all those years ago and I can still take anyone on from tee to green today. They become an extension of yourself after hitting thousands of balls on the
range and on the course and I wouldn't have it any other way. I've tried a heap of modern irons over the past 5 years or so but I didn't hit any of them any longer or straighter than I do with my Nicklaus N1's, so why bother upgrading? You get used to
the weight too, these are nice light irons which sit well with me when I address the ball. I've shot 60's, 70's and 80's with these clubs every year and continue to do so to this day - nothing more than a 9 iron or wedge from 135m out (which is just as
well cause I broke the 8 iron about 10 years ago and never bothered to get it replaced). The grips are like soap after the hours I've put in with them, but you sand em down and scrub em every 20 rounds or so and they're good as new (almost). Guess the
moral of this little obituary is some that some things you really struggle to find ways to improve on - and this stick from Jack is one of them and man we've had some fun on the course together.
Ha if you want a replacement 8 I would send it your way, just ask you pay for shipping!
