I tested a budget ($589) direct to consumer set of Takomo 101T irons against my premium (almost $3,000 AUD) Ping i525 irons.
Are you as shocked by the results as me?

Got my 101T’s about 2 weeks ago replacing some old Mizuno MX23’s. Played one round and a few sessions at the range and so far I really like them. Got the 52° gap wedge and I love that club. For the price paid I’m very happy.

Bought the original 101 irons last year. They are very similar in the looks but a bit more of a game improvement iron. I really cannot recommend them enough! I am considering purchasing these 101T irons as my game has been improving and I hope to be able to move up to more of a players iron very soon. I’ve also replaced my wedges with the forged Takomo wedges and they play really well for me. I’m sold on the Takoma brand and can’t see paying double the money for the same or very nearly the same performance.

I switched from Ping to Takomo 101. Love em so far. I only wish they had a gap wedge that matched the set like Ping and Cleveland and others. I went with a 48 degree Takomo Skyforger but I still prefer the gap or approach wedge to be part of the set and same lines. Great video. Kee p the reviews coming.

Love the Takomo's as a decent "backup" set and especially for that price. Still prefer my Srixon ZX7II over the 201 and 301CB's I own for both feel, forgiveness, and quality.. but for 1/3 of the price it's worth it they're at least 70% as good. Also, I found with my i525's lacking and I ended up trading them for the i230's which were way more accurate, way better of a feel, and way more forgiving - I was just getting back into golf after taking over 15 years off and went through almost every iron set out there because my last set I was still playing with was the taylormade RAC's and an R7 driver lol. I'm hitting off of a 12HCP

I have the Takomo 201 irons. I can honestly say these clubs are amazing. For the past five years have been playing with Taylormade P790’s and PXG 0311P gen4 irons. The Takomo 201’s clearly out performed them. They feel better on impact and are more consistent, in my opinion. If you’re a doubters, before purchasing a set of big named clubs, think about how you will save 1/2 to 2/3 of your hard earned money for a quality set of Takomo irons. I did with no regrets.

I’ve got the 101’s and it’s elevated my game to another level. Far prefer them to my Mizuno hot metal, The forgiveness on them is superb. I would say though, it won’t cure your swing if it’s poor but if you’ve got decent fundamentals, these clubs are amazing. The 4 iron which is not a club I’ve hit well in the past, I’m hitting it lovely and it’s gives another option on the longer shots. If the Skyforger wedges are as good, that will be next on my list. , Another plus , is they are beautifully made and look really good. People do think your hitting blades and then are surprised how far they’re going. For the difference in price compared the big brands. They match up in every department in my opinion.

@@JonPerkinsGolf No I haven’t, but have seen a lot of other reviews, all positive. Have a son who is 50 who said he is thinking about taking up golf again, has no clubs and asked me for advice. He has looked at box sets like Strata. I suggested he consider Takomo, probably their 101s, as I have high end drivers and fairway woods in perfect condition that I have replaced that I can give him as well as wedges, just need a bag and putter. But it’s a question of what he wants to spend versus better clubs he would stay with longer and also how often he might play and how seriously he wants to take golf. Some people are quite happy with just basic so-so equipment, but it can also happen that the feedback from lower quality equipment, including poor sound and feel, just doesn’t stimulate and can be a disincentive to becoming more interested.

I bought a set of 101 Takomos with tour lite steel shafts. I can't say I like them. I got them 1/2 inch long to match my old Taylor Mades, and maybe that's why. They feel heavy, and I don't like the sound, either. I'm 76, and while I used to be a fairly good player, I probably should have purchased Takomo's Obsidian graphite shafts. I would have spent the extra $100 if they offered UST Recoil shafts. What do you know about the Obsidian shafts?

Have seen many reviews, all done by Pro hitters, put these in the hands of a 28 hcp and guarantee the results will be way different. besides the fact of skill level, but I bet they aren't as forgiving as we are being told.

I guess you'd have to try them to answer that question for yourself. I found them to be very good and assume their more forgiving models would suit a lot of players. But the main thing is people find what works for them and hopefully you've found that with your Mizuno's.

Jon I swear you tested these at the Ridge where I’m a member. Only discovered your content as I was curious about the Takomo irons everyone seems to be loving. I have p790’s which I love, but you can never have just one set. What do you make of ordering these online and was it easy to get them customised to your specs? Love the content and I’ll be watching more of your videos from now on. May see you in the course one day too! 👍🏽🏌️

Good spot! Yep, filmed up at The Ridge and play there a little. I really enjoyed the feel of the Takomo's, very nice clubs. If you know what specs you want, I think they're a good option. Personally I think theres a lot to be said for getting custom fit though, so it's a trade off. Hope to see you around!

Ping i230’s blow away the 525’s and imo are maybe best clubs on market. Yes i have played 525’s, 27 rounds last yr. There is zero comparison how much better 230’s are.

Not much shaft or grip choices? I’d spend $500-$1,000 more just to get to my specs. Not for me!

I think, a scratch golfer could play with almost anything, a ten handicap person could possibly notice the difference between clubs, a twenty handicap may not know what the difference is. Club fitting, I think is key. A scratch to five handicap person is not showing me much. We all know you can hit the ball, color, looks and sound doesn't help me, I think? Nuff said.

Fully customized is not true, you have to order from 4 iron to PW....so not from 6 iron to PW, and they have also their own grafhite shafts. So no other brand shafts. This is also when you want to order only heads

Update: Takomo is garbage. After 20 months my 101T irons will not create any spin, hit low shots, and will not hold a green. They are made of cheap metal and the grooves collapse. I even used a groove tool to clean and in hopes for deeper groove but no go. Don’t buy clubs from a half ass cheap Finnish company made in a Chinese none quality control factory.

Let me guess. You just "loved" these, like every other KZbin influencer who "loved" them long enough to collect the money from Takomo. Funny thing, check back 3 videos later and you never find them in the bag of the KZbinr hawking these clubs. Well, none of them other than the 1 hack on Good Good who wouldn't know the difference in a hockey stick and a golf club. Wow, you were the one KZbinr who I never saw selling your honesty out out to become an ad man. I've unsubcribed from all the others, so it may as well be the same here.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm definitely not making any money from them, I'm just saying what my first impressions were. Want to keep my views unbiased and hope you won't unsubscribe, but do what you feels right. I saw enough in them to test them further but I'm not committed one way or the other yet, I'm a guy who needs to properly test and love something to use it. Cheers, Jon

Yeah... lets face it... there is just, usually, a metallic tube combined with lumb of stainless steel attached to end of it and wrapped a grip to the other end. It is not THAT high tech of a product... paying over 2K of iron set is, IMHO, absolutely insane...
