First Impressions of Giga Golf Clubs
Like pretty much every other Golf enthusiast on a budget I’ve looked into the possibility of playing clone, or custom small manufacturers clubs. After extensive research of a number of brands I decided to give Giga Golf Irons a chance. Some key factors that went into my decision were their direct from manufacturer approach, custom club assembly, and ease of contact. I was actually able to speak with the President of the company Robert Wilson before making a purchase. They also offer an online Efit system for getting your clubs fit for your body size. Although it isn’t a foolproof method, it should work for most. I already knew my proper sizing, and the Efit method confirmed it so it would have worked for me. As a lefty my choices were limited, but fortunately they did have a game Improvement Iron that seemed suitable. Their manufacturing facility is located in Florida. Even though I was having the clubs custom built, and I placed the order on the 19th of December. The clubs arrived at my door in Toronto, Ontario nine days later. Needless to say I was very impressed with the speed my order was fulfilled.
Love at First Sight
Upon opening the box that contained my new Irons I was pleasantly surprised. To be fair I wasn’t expecting to be impressed with the looks of the TRX Power Slot Irons. A set including five Iron through Pitching Wedge without any shaft or grip upgrades comes out to only $225 Canadian including delivery. Compare that to the Taylormade, and Srixon Irons sets I was looking at that were $500+. Expecting them to be aesthetically pleasing, and function well seemed like too much to hope for. Even the pictures on the Giga Golf website appeared a bit cheesy looking. Seeing them up close for the first time. The subtle style touches, thin topline, and mixture of reflective and matt surfaces look great. If these Irons perform half as well as advertised I’ll be more than satisfied. The suggested shafts by True Temper look great, and even their basic grip by Sensatec in midsize feels good. Giga Golf does offer a number of grip upgrades by Golf Pride, Lamkin, and Winn but my preferred grip wasn’t one of them so I decided to go with their basic grip at no additional charge. If it doesn’t perform well I can just regrip the clubs later. Giga Golf allows you to order clubs individually so I only ordered the 6 Iron, 7 Iron, 8 Iron, 9 Iron, and Pitching Wedge. As a High handicapper I believe that the best combination of clubs in the bag include Hybrid Clubs. My current set includes a 3 Hybrid, 4 Hybrid, and 5 Hybrid so I didn’t require the 5 Iron. Removing the one club saved me around $25.
An Ongoing Review of Giga Golf Irons
You would expect that with all of the information available on the internet you could find a review of Giga Golf Irons that included Carry and total Distance numbers, Spin rpms, and Launch angles. Well you can’t. Sure there are unboxing videos, and product information reviews but those don’t really tell you how good their clubs may actually be. Not only will I be testing these Irons on the course, but I’ll also get you all of the numbers in a Simulator. What you have probably been craving for most is direct comparisons of Giga Golf Clubs against the top manufacturers. Well I’ll have that too!
