'AWESOME'
Strengths:
Great feel to this club. It's very forgiving and great out of longer grass and of the tee.
Overall:
I love this club and use it a lot both off the tee and on Par 5's. I find I can really grit my teeth and have a go with this club. I bought mine for a measly 40 quid. absolute bargain.

'EXCELLENT FEEL'
Strengths:
Good Balance through the swing. Excellent sweet spot and very forgiving regards swing speed. Replaces the hard to hit three Iron and has given me 10yds further.
Weaknesses:
I haven't found any yet!
Overall:
Perfect off the fairway, tee or semi rough. Feels great through swing and strike and is very forgiving compared to other rescue clubs I have tried.

'Long Par 3 Killer'
Strengths:
Extremely easy to hit off the tee. Very straight. Gentle easy swing will send it miles.
Weaknesses:
Bit more difficult to hit off the fairway.
Overall:
Sorted out 190ish Par 3s or tight driving holes. 4 of my friends have also used it and admitted it was like cheating.

'DROP THE LONG IRONS'
Strengths:
Easy to hit of fairway(even tight lies)and light rough.High ball flight and easy to control shot(steel,stiff shaft).Gives control from the tee on short,tight par fours and will reach long par threes.Swing easy and watch it fly high and straight.
Weaknesses:
Price.May feel a tad heavy for some.
Overall:
Superb alternative to a five wood or two iron.Can be used anywhere on the course(even for little chip and run shots).

'FANTASTIC - GET THE BEST'
Strengths:
Fantastic off the tee - easy to hit and getting close to my 3 wood for length. My friends call it "the cheating club".
Weaknesses:
None I can think of
Overall:
Used to a use a cheaper version of the same thing and there is no comparison. This club has taken 1 to 2 shots off my score every round and my handicap is threatening 10 for the first time.

None
Overall:
Most useful club that I've ever bought. Probably the one club that I have total confidence in and have recommended it to everyone that I can!

'GREAT LONG IRON/LOFTED WOOD REPLACEMENT'
Strengths:
Higher than an iron, more acurate than a wood.
Weaknesses:
None
Overall:
If you want a replacement tee club then get the 16 degree club, if you want it for trouble free fairway use then go for the 19 degrees or above: the 16 degree is not that easy off the fairway.

Fantastic club, excellent value
