The time has come!!!!!! I have been putting it off far to long and now it has come. My beloved Titleist 681 blades are in need of being replaced. They have been my best golf partner for a very long time and have seen through many of my very best and most enjoyable years of golf. I will miss my old friends and am not looking forward to embarking on the unpleasant path of replacing them.
For those of you who are not familiar with the 681 forged blades, they are by any standard the premier players irons. The are workable and somewhat forgiving and soft as butter. I have hit many different clubs and never have I found any as comfortable as these. If it were possible I would have another set made rather than switch but alas time and progress has changed the game and I must move with it or left behind.
Titleist is to golf what Louis Vuitton is to ladies purses. It's the standard by which all others are compared and their excellence in all areas of golf is evident. They make the very best golf balls and have for so many years. They make the best equipment and have for so many years. Sure they get out marketed by the likes of Taylor Made/Addidas and Callaway but only because their products are the best and the need for the Golf Companies to pay incredible sums to players to play their products that are altered to play very much like the ones Titleist produces can they survive. I'm a huge fan of Titleist and it will always be where my golfing allegiance will lie!
So in my effort to replace my 681 irons I will go to the titleist performance center if I can manage to get in and have new clubs made in an effort to duplicate and maybe even improve on the what is in my mind the very best irons ever made the forged Titleist 681's
