Kasco K2K E-Spec Fairway Wood Golf Club

Appearance: Irons are unconventional in appearance but attractive. There is no clear visual indication that these are hybrids, looking more like thick blades. The lie line is slightly curved similar to that on fairway woods (vs flat for most irons). This allows for less ground resistance and easier/cleaner shots from off the fairway or the rough. On the flip side, this curvature also allows for a setup that can go from approx 2* flat to 1* upright. You have to be very aware of your stance since the club lie will provide little feedback.

Performance: I am getting about the same distance as from my old forged clubs (PW = 140 yds; 5 iron = 195yds) However, these are far more forgiving, keeping off-center hits on track and in play. For the same reason they are not very "workable". These were designed for playing straight, no fades or draws, not for the more skilled players, but highly recommendable to the average player. Ball flight is average-high, soft landing with lots of spin on the short irons and lots of roll of the longer irons.

Overall: The clubs feel lightweight, but solid. The position of the head can be felt at all times. The shaft performs exactly as it was intended. I have played stiff (Ping JZ) metal shafts all of my life and this is my first graphite shafted set, there has been no adaptation period. From the first hit it has been line them up and hit away, no problems.

Recommendation: These are rare/hard to find clubs, and not many people will have the opportunity to try them. If you are like me, who's given up any expectation to ever become a pro, but still highly competitive and one of the top 20-30 players in my golf club, TRY them, you will be very pleased.
