Yes. They’re awesome*.

*possibly a placebo. I’m not good enough that I can consistently use the same swing for a particular iron then change it for a club half an inch longer or shorter.

At Vic Champs I had 2 full swings with gap wedge which I put close enough to make putts yet in the same round I topped 7 iron twice. Same length clubs.

I got the F7 one length irons from 9 iron to sand wedge.I have had issues with back pain and these help me to stand up a bit taller and find these easier to swing. The short irons go higher than regular short irons which I like.I didn't end up getting the longer irons cos they flew a bit too low and quality of ball striking wasn't any better compared to my RBZ irons.

I'm not sure you could handle the stock reg. You’ve seen me play, no way Jose too much shaft for me to handle!

Would love to try a full set out, however I have never seen any in the flesh.

I use a set now (4 months old). My back virtually demands it as now I can go home after a round and not have to lie down for hours. I was measured by Cobra on a fitting day, which helps and the pros here recommended them for me.
I bought the 4 iron to gap wedge and mine I think are 1 inch over and upright. It's a bit weird at first but I am getting used to them.
Thing is, it should be a full swing for all clubs, same ball position, same swing and don't really go after it with the long irons. Same swing as a 7 iron throughout.
I still bag a gap wedge and sand wedge for around the greens delicate type shots.
Overall I wasn't entirely convinced but now I will keep using them due to back issues.

You what now? I think he means for blading shots over/across the green and for digging holes in bunkers. 😋

Delicate as a sledgehammer.

To be fair, though, chipping with a club the length of a standard 6 iron doesn't work real well.

That must be a seriously strong shaft to move that much sand.

Do you still have these in the bag?
I like the idea of the single length irons and have considered 4-p.

I have been using the F7 one lengths from 5-PW for the last 12 months. I grabbed them as I liked the idea of reducing variables, and still being reasonably new to golf I desired more consistency. Since I hadn't played with a normal set for very long, I adopted the one length concept quickly and find it works for me. My swing has developed quickly, and I am seeing shots falling off my handicap. I love the huge height I get on my short irons. I have heard the 4 is a bit too low for some. My set came with a Gap wedge, and to be honest I haven't used it, and doubt I will ever. My current gap wedge is my go to club for a lot of different shots around the green. I like having standard length wedges, I feel like I have more control. I actually like what the one lengths have done for my game, that I am about to get fitted for the forged versions, just for the sake of buying some new shiny clubs.
