macgregor v-foil m455 irons

hi all
was just wondering if anyone has played these clubs if so how good are they as they are getting good reviews on the net,and does anyone know a good store in england to get them from that custom fit them too,coming to england in march price of them in iceland is about 560 quid fitted thanks for any help.

Yep, I have tried them a few times. I have a great fondness for Mackies and if they are your style, you won't regret using them.

I found the 455's great to look at and even better to hit if you want a good feeling club and a bit of help from technology. The special cavity design reduces the launch angle (so the ball doesn't baloon up) but keeps the cavity back advantage. If you don't mind the oversize head and offset, they are serious performing clubs. The soles are well designed as well so the club sits very well at address, if you want to open or close the face a bit.

They were a bit heavy though, I thought.

No doubting Mackie quality either - everything about is serious style.

Now, getting them and club fitting them may be a problem. The only people I can suggest off the bat are the larger retailers like American Golf Discount, Nevada Bobs or some the regional retailers. If you tell me where abouts you are, I can contact MacGregor and tell you where the retailers are.

thanks for that i live in iceland so i think you might draw a blank there,just one more thing ive got some snake eyes that was custom fitted would the mackies be the same ?

Very similar in the process of doing it and reasonably similar specs. But, we never take it for granted because clubs vary in standard specs such a lot. I normally re-do the whole fitting process.

Snake Eyes are cool clubs too! Not as popular as they should be.

When you get to the UK, contact the agent (a great guy by the name of Philip Morley) at:
MacGregor Golf (Europe) Ltd.
Coronation Road, High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire
his phone number is: (01494) 755-900
his e-mail is: pmorley@mcggeu.com

He'll be able to tell you where the closest fitter is.
